^^ or when cars are racing in a movie and one of the drivers floors it after a dramatic facial expression, like now it's serious. You were already racing fkwit, why wasn't your foot down
Also, movie cars with 20 speed gearboxes
I hate the way nearly everyone mispronounces 'data' and misuses it as a collective noun.
It's a proper Latin plural, singular = datum. It's 'these date+a' not 'this dart+er'. I believe a darter is a bird but its not a case of ambiguity. It's a case of ignorance. I suspect that people assume 'date+a' is an Americanism. They are wrong.
I'm starting a campaign to correct it. Soon you will see tweeted corrections scrolling across the bottom of the teev under Tony Jones and shortly after that you'll hear it bleeped out or synthetically voiced over. I'll see that the next issue of the ABC style manual has the correction. I could start with the Wiki dictionary couldn't I, or I could just roll over and mispronounce it myself. Yeah fk. I'll do that.
^ Just what is your agendum, exactly?
Some people commented on speeding or being too slow. I haven't had speeding fine in 10 years. I got the limit or 5 less. people always up my arse. I tell you from experience, do 100 and people get angry. I ignore them though. Going down south on the weekend, I did 110 (as the sign says to do) and so many come flying up my arse.
Also, going down south I do 90 when I have my boat trailer. **** them, it's legal. They can wait for the over take lane.
Not everyone on our roads is sharp minded. Some are old. Some are tired. I hate people who speed.
(don't get me started on drink driving!0
In movies, rifles and handguns with zero recoil whatsoever.
Cars the screech the tires on a dirt road.
Women who punch like a professional male boxer.
Weapons that never need to be reloaded.
Bombs that are dropped from an airplane or artillery shells that land 10 yards from someone and barely knock them down.
And actors who shoot someone at 100 meters with a handgun without hardly even aiming.
When all the soldiers are gathered in groups, the first thing they teach you in infantry training is to spread out, "one hand grenade will kill all you idiots"
Tv is turning gay. Why is it all new shows have a gay couple in it. How about some lesbians. Hot ones. Not like the ones I saw in Newtown today.
In a horror movie when the killer is chasing the victim reeeaaaal slow.
I want to kill you, so to look more scary, I'm walking really slow and steady....
'7news' and 'today tonight' adds on the radio... that lady's voice is TERRIBLE!
In fact these shows are the worst shows on earth. What is it with all the freaking negative, depressing bull** stories about absolute crap that only old, rotten, life hating pieces of ** people care about?
GET A LIFE and enjoy yourself! Stop worrying about what other people are doing or not doing.
What are my pet hates, let me think, not a lot really apart from the obvious:
Child molesters, Rapists, Murderers, Used car salesman, Lawyers, The man on the infomercial who is so excited about a steam mop, the word 'Infomercial', the Weather, too hot, too cold, too wet, too dry, Noisy motorbikes at 3am, Bigots, Racists, Misogynists', Radicals, Terrorists, Bad drivers, Internet bullies, Rude shop assistants, Ads that use “cute” children to tell me what to buy, Body odour, Rug shops that claim the liquidators are moving in (for the last ten years), Late night television, Over paid sportsmen, Violence, Censorship, Warm beer and cold pies, the Judicial system, Early morning starts, Bindies, Getting the Hiccups, Parking inspectors, Calm seas when I want to surf, Rough seas when I want to fish, Homeless shopping trollies, Whingers, Intolerance, Computers, Modern music, People who blame 'Society' for their problems, Power outages, Knockers, Collingwood supporters, Cricket in Footy season, Footy in cricket season, Local Governments, Barbers who cut your hair how they want to, Rent a Crowd, Japanese whalers, Flies and mosquitoes, Getting lost when you're in a hurry, Blowing a thong (for the feet, not the other one), Hats at the dinner table, Over regulation, Scrooges and Grinch's who try to put a damper on Christmas, Wowsers and the Fun police, Liars, Drug cheats in Sport, Monopolies, Inconsiderate smokers (I smoke), Reality TV shows, News reporters who ask stupid questions, Weather presenters who think they're a star, Filling out forms, the Tax Office, Public servants that aren't, Compulsory voting and the preference system (one person = one vote), Thieves, Politicians, Road works, Petrol prices, Bad coffee, Parents who let their children run amok in shopping centres, Crows, Overseas call centres and telemarketers.
I must be a very easy going person because I can't think of anything.
Misuse of the word "literally".
Stupid corporate words that aren't actually words, such as "learnings". WTF is that? It's not a word at all. "Learn" is a verb, and the noun form is "lessons". You learn "lessons", not "learnings". My brain is going to literally explode the next time I hear that.
Another one is the word "mentees". It's not a word! There are "mentors" and "proteges".
American movies that start off with a somewhat interesting storyline, but the 2nd half always degrades into an identical mindless chase/showdown. You could take the 2nd half of the script from most of those movies, swap it with another, and it wouldn't make any difference. Really, what is the point?
People who are doing 80 in a 100 zone, and then they brake when they come to a corner with an advisory sign showing 90.
People who are doing 80 on the pacific highway, and then floor it when the uphill overtaking lane appears.
*Women who just don't shut up.
*People who talk about motorbikes or cars and BS all sorts of garbage how fast it goes or how they dragged a race car and won - especially if you have owned that same bike or car.
*People who let their dogs take a dump in-front of you and walk off. Actually I like that one to a point as its a great chance to go off at some random stranger.
*Mouth breathers who think that talking 10cm from my face is acceptable.
*Donation services in shopping center's. No generally means no. Surf lifesavers is ok - always have time and change for them.
*Opening my wallet more than 5 times in 1 day.
*spending 3hrs to cook a nice dinner and something small ruins the whole meal
Sunday drivers. Even on a Sunday
FFS if your not going to do the speed limit stay in the left lane. Why the f--k do you floor it it when you get to the overtaking lane.
Effing big suburban 4wds. They are an egregious waste of resources and a source of annoyance both on the road and in car parks.
Birds...I mean honestly? I just spent most of the day cleaning up the house and windows and when I stood back to admire my good job, all I could focus on was the multiple splatters of bird shattings on the walls! How the feck do they manage to crap horizontally? To add - WTF do the filthy flying rats eat?! The strongest mixture of acids and cleaning chemicals can't budge the crap!
Oh, and I also hate the use of the word 'journey' on tv these days when a talentless nobody is trying to justify their luck on some crappy reality show.
That's all.
110% percentages are out of 100 idiots anything: else is not a valid number. I
People who think i go to the gym because Im.fit & have muscle haven't people heard of hard work & sports
