    [/quote]Truthfully, the skinny jean trend isn't really "fitting" on all the guys that wear them. There is a difference between slim-fit jeans and nut-huggers. I agree with you on the pants half-way down the ass...but if you're supporting nut-hugging tight jeans (seldomly girl jeans) on boys/guys and saying that they fit, I'd have to disagree...Pants can be too baggy, OR too damn tight.

    that aside, here are my peeves with the trends:

    Myspace
    Facebook
    American Idol, Dancing W/ The Stars, and other tasteless TV shows
    Reality TV
    Being Vegetarian because it's the cool thing to do....
    Misunderstanding of Organic and Environmental attention (I am a tree-hugger myself, and my girlfriend and I eat organic...BUT it drives me up the wall when I see the green effort being sold through fashion and store slogans, advertisments, etc...it has no passion or true belief, IMO)
    Metallica (seriously...they aren't THAT great)
    lastly, the whole "Emo" scene[/quote]

    this is why life is great......all these that annoy YOU????

    myspace....i dont even know what the fuck it is
    facebook....i have no clue about that one either
    american idol....i never watched it
    dancing with stars....i watched about 8 seconds of that one and turned it off
    vegetarians....i dont give a flying fuck about vegetarians
    eating organic.....fuck that too

    in other words .....none of this shit annoys me....

    because i just dont give a rats ass about any of it.....hehehehehehehe
    Take me piece by piece.....
    Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....

    Nor do we care. Some trends just seem ridiculous. Are we not supposed to be bothered by them?
    Is it really something enough to be bothered by? I would understand if the latest thing was to interrupt someone's conversation by making a crow sound. But some jackass wearing his jeans too tight doesn't affect me and I could care less if they do. Just trying to put things in perspective here.


    Sometimes you can't help but be bothered by something. In my post I talked about annoying ads. They make my blood boil no matter how much I try to ignore them

    I understand you are trying to put things into perspective. In the big picture, none of this stuff is important. That I understand. But pet peeves and annoyances still exist, no matter how hard you try to ignore them, and it just seems to me that posting what essentially is your own pet peeve, against pet peeve converations, in a thread about pet peeves is futile and self-defeating.

    cmon people, go out and take a walk! ;)

    actually - the one thing i genuinely cant understand, especially after living in sussex for a brief time - skinny jeans: real men just wouldnt wear them.....the most stupid looking demasculating rubbish ive seen in years - but im not getting angry about it. i feel good about how i look in comparison. 8-)

    all the other things i can see why people like though, so i couldnt care less about em.

    internet killing the newspaper industry and fucking young people for not reading the paper. thats what annoys me
    I don't think young people not reading the papers have that much to do with the failure, it's basically the Internet. The print industry should have seen it coming ever since Ebay started to become a huge trend back around the late 90's. Then Google came along, later craigslist, and so forth....basically these sites sucked all the advertisements away from the newspapers. That's where the papers make their money, from the ads.

    This made me laugh. Thanks for reminding me that I don't need to say fuck multiple times to get my point across ;)

    I'll be able to sleep peacefully tonight knowing that you don't give a rats ass about these things, but care enough to let everyone know that.

    Your time must be not be too valuable, or you just have way too much of it. :D

  • Does the recent twitter craze count? Cause that kind of annoys me that all the news media have latched onto it. IMO it's just such a narcissistic and useless waste of time.
