What are things that easily get on your nerves that a lot of your friends or co-workers seem to do?
Mine are:
-Cough a lot and make weird mouth noise despite not being sick.
-Make nasty-ass noises while eating
-Show me "some really funny Youtube video" when I visit them, or they come over and monopolize my laptop for 45 minutes
-Say "like" wayyy too much
Things friends do that piss you off.
-Chew too loud (especially during a movie, makes me want to rip their fucking eyeballs out).
-Tell me way too many things to do at one time
- When I'm trying to chill out with them, and they also have someone else over who is a total cunt
Being dickheads in movie theaters is really only the main thing. i mean, come on, you pay to see this movie with a few mates and then they start acting like they are 10.
-Tell very racist black jokes every thirty seconds. I like my fun racism in small doses but it bothers me when it's constant. Also, being half black has something to do with it.
When they feel like they always have to one up my story Even with obvious lies. Example My parents just bought a new car. My friend: Oh ya my uncle bought 6 new cars!
have someone else over who is a total cunt "AHH, i hate this, i normally tell the person to get the fuck out
my friend that doesnt understand that we dont tell him wen we are smoking not because we dont trust him but because we know we shouldnt
and smoking nazi's
also my friend does this annoying as fuck thing where he pretends he's golum (lotr)(spelling?)
i mean come on we arent 12 anymore
" my friend that doesnt understand that we dont tell him wen we are smoking not because we dont trust him but because we know we shouldnt and smoking nazi's also my friend does this annoying as fuck thing where he pretends he's golum (lotr)(spelling?) i mean come on we arent 12 anymore "Dude, what?
" *looks up* Aw shit. Edit: Hm... It got deleted. Anyway, I hate when they say "no homo" after every sentence that may seem gay. It's fucking stupid, and shows their immaturity level. Then again, I'm surrounded by idiots. "No homo.
" @Ace829 said:Indubitably." *looks up* Aw shit. Edit: Hm... It got deleted. Anyway, I hate when they say "no homo" after every sentence that may seem gay. It's fucking stupid, and shows their immaturity level. Then again, I'm surrounded by idiots. "No homo. "
One thing which keeps happening is we'll make a plan to do something and then as the date gets closer, everyone will back out. It's not even big things. Here's an example: We were meant to be going to a festival and after a few weeks of talking it up, I go online to book the tickets and suddenly no one can afford it or they think it's lame or something else so we never went and while it didn't really bother them, I was kind of really gutted.
Friends that "have" to debate anything you say. It's OK to have a different opinion, people. You can tell yours, but don't get worked up about it.
When you're watching something funny, always turning and staring at other people while they're laughing.
Oh yeah, i almost forgot about when they steal your stuff and then give it to someone who they know you hate and stop you from getting it back because they think it's funny.
I hate it when they correct you, ask too many fucking questions, judge you too quickly, and answer your questions like fucking ass holes. I also hate it when they never say sorry. It's like they're trying to be fucking cool.
" I hate people that use gay as a synonym for stupid. "Admittedly that's a habit that I had for a very long time, but luckily I grew out of it.
Anywho, things I hate:
When they have a story or 'know a guy/girl' for every single situation you could possibly think of.
Friends that don't know when to 'stop.' My friends and I joke around a lot, but it irks me when they just don't know when enough is enough. E.g. 2 of my buddies came over this weekend. And like always, one of them kept coming with jokes (towards me) like "I don't leave the house" and "I'm antisocial" and all that crap which kinda stung. I won't lie about it, I enjoy my alone time, but at the same time the moment a friend calls or wants to go to a party, hang out, or w/e then I'm in no questions asked. It stung because, a lot of my friends go out all the time. I feel like that's what I should be doing, but that's not what I want to do if it makes any sense. That's not who I am. I enjoy going out in small doses. Personally, I'd rather just go over someone's house and chill. But meh w/e, pardon the rant
Got a buddy who has a serious problem with light drugs and drinking. Annoys me to see him constantly abusing the stuff and hurting himself. I try to help him but no matter what I say he just dismisses it and whines about how much he hates himself yet he refuses to try and help himself. I know it's only gonna be a matter of time until he kills himself and the only way I will know is that he won't have logged onto Steam for months.
Got another friend who just annoys me a lot of the time. He's only sixteen or seventeen though so it's just the usual teenage immature things like not thinking before talking, acting like an idiot to be funny, or getting annoyed at things he should otherwise just forget about. All things not exclusive to teens, but a staple of being a teenager. I can usually overlook them as being that, but it doesn't make it any less annoying and embarrassing to be around when he says or does em. Plus he's extremely homophobic, the brainwashed by religious parents kind, and gets extremely defensive when he see's or hears anything that may be construed in some weird way as being gay.
"HEY MAN LEMME COME OVER TO YOUR HOUSE"
"Actually I'm kind of busy..."
"ALRIGHT I'LL COME AT LIKE 4:00"
I have this one friend who constantly says he is bored, and when I tell him he has many things to do he says "Yeah, but I don't want to do those things." .. Same guy also always says he thinks a game looks awesome and he wants it, but wont buy it because it would be "wasting his money."
" When you're watching something funny, always turning and starting at other people while they're laughing. "This right here, is the worst.
Other than that - coming over unannounced, forcing their way into everything I do, getting jealous when I spend time with other friends, being loud, immature and obnoxious when its late and everyone else in the house is asleep, giving me a point by point account of what they did that day, announcing how broke they are when out, complaing when I don't want to catch up just because they have nothing to do and telling the whole world about things that you've said but they've slightly changed the story to make themselves sound better.
Why did this person call you routinely, just to sing to you, or say nothing at all? It's strikes me as bizarre.
Number 3= Yes.
I hate it when I sit through a damn youtube video that is shit in the first place. I wish my friends knew or cared about watching Hulu or Netflix on the Tv, its better than watching nut shots for three hours.
Every time I see them they're still fucking alive...
In all seriousness, nothing about them annoys me. I don't hang around shit heads and even if they do have flaws I quite enjoy them.
I used to hate it when one friend in particular would ONLY call on Friday nights because it was convenient for him, and I was a guaranteed friend that would come and hang out with him.
I only had nothing to do on Friday nights because I finished work REALLY late.
Following this I found a different job and started going out a lot more with other friends.
He actually got pissed off that he couldn't hang out any more. I was flabbergasted, I couldn't believe what I was hearing.
I told him point blank that; "I'm not your: 'just in case I'm bored' friend, that you ask to hang out when ever you don't have any plans.
start respecting my time, or just leave me alone."
Shortly after he bought me like 4 cold ones and we just laughed it away.
We're best friends now.
I think that maybe if we vocalise our annoyances with our friends, in a way that is understandable and not needy, then friends will respect you more.
Finding stupid reasons to not like a game
getting high and forgeting to invite me to places
Inviting me over and not wanting me to eat or drink anything.
Pirate PSP games.
Hate games that aren't about shooting dudes or have non-realistic looking graphics. I once tried to show everyone Wind Waker when it first came out. Thought it looked like a kids cartoon show.
Get really bitchy when I'm giving it to them rough in street fighter. I can no longer use Ryu, E.Honda, Abel, or Zangief because there all "complete cheese" or "I'm cheating".
Edit: Oh yeah, I had a friend who doesn't have internet. So he always wanted to come over and watch porn with me. Like what? That sounds like the most awkward thing ever.
" I hate people that use gay as a synonym for stupid. "I don't mind it as much every once and awhile but it bugs me when gay has completely replaced the word stupid in their vocabulary.
When a total cunt arrives for the night when i was coming over for the night also and fucks up any plans.
Something I found that works with this sort of friend." I have one friend who constantly bails on plans. It's usually more surprising when he actually shows up somewhere he has said he will be."
When I'm about to ask a friend if they'd like to come round or hang out somewhere, if they don't look interested in what I'm talking about or they look like they point blank aren't listening, then before the question comes out of my mouth I simply say to them, "Do you really care about what we're talking about? Because you don't look interested."
If they aren't interested then you've just saved yourself a tonne of time, if they are interested then they'll listen up more and respect you more too for calling them out on their shit.
Something else that I find helps guarantee that your friend will show up is putting a price of admission on your personal time.
If I'm organising to do something, I will make sure that my time at least appears like it requires some level of effort on their part if they want to hang out with me.
I don't do this to seem cool, but to make sure my friends always respect my time.
For example, I'll say; "Hey! Will you really be there, yes or no? I want you to respect my time. If you flake out on me then I'll take that as you looking down at me. I don't want to hang out with people that look down at me. So, yes or no?"
Don't be aggressive but say it like you mean it.
I mean come on, the guy doesn't care as much as you deserve if he can't even be bothered to be there to hang out with you.
Oh and I say to them; "If you still show up but you're really late then you'll have to buy me 2 rounds of beer." (And to make it seem nicer. Tell him that if you're ever late for him you'll buy him 2 rounds of beer.)
I feel like maybe I'm giving too much social advice out all in one go.
Apologies, I'm a life coach so I sometimes find myself going into way too much detail in relation to the thing that interests me the most... Socialising.
