[Badwolf]

1) When people try and use fancy words despite not having a clue what they mean or how to spell them.
2) All Sonic the Hedgehog games after number 2.
3) Console fanboys.
4) Eurovision.
5) The majority of Youtube comments.
6) The story and characters in FFXII.
7) Games with save points 2 hours apart from each other, and sending the player back to said save points if they die (read: the Metroid Prime games).
8) Diet Coke.
9) US English (I lost a mark on a test when I was 6ish because American cartoon imports confused me so I spelt "colour" wrong, and held a grudge ever since ): )
10) MSN Messenger Deafult emotes.
11) Buses.

I had to tack an extra pet hate on because I really hate buses.

[someguyfromazoo]

11)Berries And Cream Guy."BERRIES AND CREAM BERRIES AND...OMG DID I JUST GET SHOT??!?"

[ShaggE]

Only 10? :p

1. E-diots. (As in, the people that show up out of nowhere going "zomg gai lolol noob rofl")
2. Fanboys. Although that technically falls under E-diots, some are just old fashioned idiots.
3. -isms. (Racism, sexism, etc.)
4. Reality television.
5. Soldier Of Fortune 3, and how it killed a great franchise.
6. George Romero for almost demolishing any chance of Dead Rising 2 getting made.

9. Top 10 lists

The irony of you being on this thread and hating top10s is pretty funny.

[ShaggE]

That was the joke.

[vyperspit]

1) Spiders. I have a nightmares about spiders after looking at a for real one.
2) People who hate snakes. They hate them so much, that they kill thousands of rattlesnakes and sell them as knic-nacs! I tell ya, who are the real animals here!!
3) Dad. When he is in a bossy mood.
4) Video game zombies. They can be real pests.
5) Superball. His voice annoys me and has a one track mind.
6) Cockroaches. I find them inside our dishwasher every night.
7) Opera. It tortures my ears!
8) Dad coming upstairs on Sundays. He comes up to watch NFL on Sunday evenings and interupts my video gaming time.
9) Texas in the summer. I get heat-stroke almost instantly.
10) Quagmire from Family Guy. The only thing I hate about him is his dirty sex habits. That guy should be castrated.

[TrogLlama]

11. Unprovoked insults and assumptions that a bit of filler was someone's attempt at being witty.
It actually wasn't meant to be an attack on you; my only intent was to add an extra layer of irony (I had just done that very thing myself, you see).

[ShaggE]

Ah, I apologize. *feels like an ass* Defensive ShaggE is defensive. :p

[Mel]

Ah, I apologize. *feels like an ass* Defensive ShaggE is defensive. :p

Can that be used as a weapon in an RPG? :p

(I don't play them, but it sounds like something you could obtain and use)

ShaggE uses Defense!

It's super effective!

Wild Offense fainted!

I have never watched an adult cartoon but anybody with half a mind would know just by seeing adult cartoon commercials and changing them quickly.That they contain a lot of exploitation that is not only wrong but also causes depression in people's lives.Spongebob, Mike, Lu and OG, johnny bravo and original ppg were good and are children cartoons.

You might say that the Tom and Jerry original series is the best cartoon and it is adult wrong. Tom and jerry is not adult cartoon because its violence is not graphic and it rarely has nudity.And that even animal nudity not human.

It may depend on 5 reasons; family, religion, psychologic behavior, or health problems such as seizures.

adult does not mean violence or nudity, it can refer to other issues regarded as adult f.e. unemployment, relationship issues, and adult humour; none of which will cause depression

[Badwolf]

2 Rabbids not being a spin off.
3 No Rayman

YES and YES. Apparently, Rabbids was going to be a "proper" Rayman game, but they turned it into a mini-game collection when they heard about the Wii. Not impressed ):

Tbh though, I still think Rayman 1 was the best. The level design, characters, art direction, etc were genius, and none of the others have really matched it in terms of creativity. Still don't get why everyone from Rayman 2 and onwards suddenly had limbs, barring Rayman.


I have never watched an adult cartoon but anybody with half a mind would know just by seeing adult cartoon commercials and changing them quickly.That they contain a lot of exploitation that is not only wrong but also causes depression in people's lives.

The Simpsons is technically an adult cartoon, and a lot of people like that :confused:.
You can't really write off all adult cartoons as being bad though, I'm not really a fan of the Simpsons or Family Guy, but I like Futurama a lot. And I'm a big fan of kids cartoons (been watching a lot of Freakazoid and Pinky and the Brain lately).

You've said yourself though, you've never watched an adult cartoon, so it's a bit of a harsh judgement to make. Especially for a field which covers a lot of different genres.

4. Reality shows (As opposed to real people in your everyday life, please!)
3. Soap Operas (Ditto, but with more cheese factor)
2. Most Latin music (I don't know, but sounds too "cheap" to me. Can tolerate for awhile if its a video with a Latin babe {or more!} and the mute function)

Darn, It seems that I'm a bit cranky today ;)

Megaman had just introduced my favorite character, Deo, then ditched the series.

[vyperspit]

I hate the Soda Poppers too, especially Peepers bewitching Sybil with his "devilishly" seductive alter ego. I shudder to think if he succeeded in creating a hellspawn.:p I would rather face total oblivion then to see Peeper's lit'l "anti-Christ". I know evil comes in many forms, but that is just cruel.

Cheers, brotha. (No offense, someguy. I mean this in general.)

I blame phone texting and multiplayer games without headset support. That's the only way I can explain spelling "would" and "could" as "wud" and "cud".

I know that the people who type that way aren't actually that stupid, and may even be good spellers when handed a pen and paper, but that is such an enormous pet peeve of mine.

[vyperspit]

I used to love the old Sonic the Hedgehog cartoons when I was a kid. On the other hand, I didn't like Dr. Robotnik, because he was a complete retard. A bloated, big-mouthed, retard.

5 CN making cartoons without the help of the person who created the series.

I agree here. This is why Ren and Stimpy abruptly stopped being funny after the tenth episode or so.

That they contain a lot of exploitation that is not only wrong but also causes depression in people's lives.

First off, people throw around words like 'exploitation' much too often for my taste. I suppose Sam and Max is exploitation because it perpetuates the stereotype of hyperkinetic rabbity things as ultraviolent politician holy men. And I, for one, will stand for it no longer!

Also, you know what else causes depression in some people's lives? Seeing happiness in the lives of others. Guess we need to nip that in the bud, too?

First off, what do you have against Harvey Birdman?
Anyways, I feel obligated to point out that 'everything I can't play on guitar' is kind of a stupid thing to hate. Technically speaking, you can play anything if you put your mind and lots of time into it, but I play myself and know that this borders on impossible. Really, the best thing to do is to just find something easier that you can play and work your way up. I guess what I'm trying to say is "Don't be mad at songs that are to hard for you- you're the reason you can't play them. Work on it, then come back."

First of all, Harvey Birdman is just retarded
second, I'm really good at the guitar,but the songs I can't play
(such as:Through the Fire and the Flames,Six,ect.ect.) I get really
annoyed by but I'll keep trying
at those ones!!!

Why is it retarted? Something can't just be retarted, there needs to be a reason. IS it you don't have a sense of humor. Cause thats okay. You don't have to be ashamed. Lots of people just don't appreciate the funny. Unless of course you are talking about Harvey Birdman after Phil Seben, aka Colbert, left. Then I would have to agree it went a little downhill.

What about your top 10?

[Morden]

01 - Dentists. Yes, I hate dentists. Are you a dentist? Tough break, I hate you.
02 - My job. I get no appriciation for what I do and I hate the job anyway, but hey, you gotta work, right?
03 - My pay. I don't get nearly as much as I should be getting, which sucks balls.
04 - Not being able to have a real vacation in some nice place, far far away. Can't afford it.
05 - Bureaucracy. Who doesn't hate it? Kids maybe.
06 - Character design of all Final Fantasy games starting with VIII [but excluding IX]. I hate Nomura's teenage hermaphrodite approach. 15 year old girly boy or boyish girl saving the world while being an idol and showing some panties. But hey, whatever sells in Japan.
07 - LucasArts and what they've become. Star Wars and Lego crap all around. But I guess as long as George doesn't have to have to pay license fees...
08 - PlayStation 3. Overpriced piece of junk with no decent exclusive titles. Metal Gear Solid 4 doesn't really make much difference, and don't give me Final Fantasy XIII in all of its fifteen forms, each for a full retail price.
09 - Tomonobu Itagaki. Dead or Alive? Please. A Virtua Fighter ripoff with a ton of bouncy breasts. Do people play this at tournaments? No. Xtreme Beach Volleyball? Come on. That's just cheap. If you enjoy this type of stuff, get some porn dojin from Japan. At least the girls will be naked. Ninja Gaiden isn't Itagaki's from the start so he souldn't get the credit for it. Oh ... And he's an ass too.
10 - Street Fighter IV being in 3D. The game doesn't look nearly as good as other titles already out there. The collisions are terrible. They used hitbox system instead of 3D collision ... For the sake of gameplay feel, similar to this of Street Fighter II. Great. Shame it's a bit confusing, since you can't time your attacks by what you see.
11 - Piracy, roms and people who play pirated games and / or roms. You suck.

I know it's supposed to be ten, but hey, I threw in one for free.

[Kaotic_Blu]

In no particular order...

1. Disney CHANNEL - Don't get me wrong, I Love the animated classics, but this new "tween" approach sickens me.
2. People who thing that all Nintendo games are for babies/"happy" and never even give the games a chance
3. Fans who don't admit the flaws of what they are a fan of.
4. Death
5. Ignorance
6. Fads associated with the Disney channel
7. The decline of animated TV shows recently
8. Fads in general
9. Not Brawl
10. The fact that I can't think of a 10th thing to say

That film is WHY Disney sucks. That and Hannah Montana. And the fact that they canceled Dave the Barbarian (which was a great show when it was being meta). And Ashley Tisdale. And... You get the idea.
To be fair, Phineas & Ferb is pretty good. Well, the Doofenshmurtz segments, at least.

[Iron Curtain]

1) When people try and use fancy words despite not having a clue what they mean or how to spell them.


I use fancy words, and I know exactly what they mean. BTW, did you know that meanings change over time? For instance, did you know that "Adamant" originally meant "diamond" and "fact" meant something that was done, such as a deed?


2) All Sonic the Hedgehog games after number 2.


There were plenty of great sonic games after 2. I can name some of them
-Sonic 3
-Sonic & Knuckles
-Sonic Adventure 1
-Sonic CD


3) Console fanboys.


Hear hear. They're Video Game's own religious nutjobs.


5) The majority of Youtube comments.


You will hear no argument from me, good sir!


6) The story and characters in FFXII.


I haven't completed the game, but from what I played, it wasn't that bad.

7) Games with save points 2 hours apart from each other, and sending the player back to said save points if they die (read: the Metroid Prime games).


Once again, no argument.


8) Diet Coke.


Okay, so you prefer the sugary stuff that will give you cavities and type-2 diabetes?


9) US English (I lost a mark on a test when I was 6ish because American cartoon imports confused me so I spelt "colour" wrong, and held a grudge ever since ): )


I could go on a long rant on why US English is better, but I'll refrain for now.


10) MSN Messenger Deafult emotes.


Well, at least you could customize them. I personally like them.


11) Buses.

I had to tack an extra pet hate on because I really hate buses.


Well, I take the train. Contrary to popular belief, we have double decker buses in NYC. However, they're privately owned and used as tour buses.

[Iron Curtain]

And now, my bottom ten (from 10-5):

10. People who spell as if they're text messaging, e.g. "You" = "U" and "Are" = "R". This is extremely annoying, even when you're text messaging.
9. Apple's exclusive contract with AT&T. C'mon, Apple, unlock the iPhone and give us a choice!
8. Corrupt politicians who care more about the perks of their job such as taking golfing trips to Scotland than doing the job for which they were elected.
7. DRM in DVDs that won't allow you to copy films for personal use + Digital Copy that restricts what computer you can use the copied movie on. I mean, it's my movie, I shouldn't be restricted by what operating system I use!
6. The fact that tickets to see the Police are $300. I mean, it's a fair price considering the economics of supply and demand, but that's a lot of money!

Bottom Five coming soon...

[patters]

And now, my bottom ten (from 10-5):
6. The fact that tickets to see the Police are $300. I mean, it's a fair price considering the economics of supply and demand, but that's a lot of money!


$300 swears, i would never pay that much for a gig, most i have paid for one band was £40 $80 and that was dream theater

[Iron Curtain]

and now, my bottom five:

5. The Pest. This was a fifteen-year-old John Leguizamo movie. and it sucked!
4. Nintendo not letting you try old-school NES games before you buy them. Or Wii-ware games for that matter. Plus, there's a no-return policy. So you're basically buying a pig-in-a-poke.
3. The games industry putting too much money in the same game, whether they be WWII FPSes, RTSes, Twitch-Action games, or derivative sequels, rather than something interesting like what Telltale is doing.
2. YouTube videos of really horrible stuff, like Horse Castration or child beating...

and my number one pet-peeve:

1. Eggs. I hate them. They smell like shit. They are the kryptonite to my superman.

I use fancy words, and I know exactly what they mean.


Then there's no problem (:
I can't actually think of any examples to back up the original point at the minute, so here's something I'm just ripping off Eegra.com's article on tips for game journalists.

* One’s interest is ‘piqued’, not ‘peaked’.
* The verb is ‘orient’, not ‘orientate’.
* One’s appetite is whetted; it is not ‘to wet the appetite’ but ‘to whet the appetite’.
* You wait with ‘bated breath’, not ‘baited breath’. Also, to bate is to moderate or restrain, so please think about the meaning of the phrase ‘to wait with bated breath’ before you slap it onto the end of your exclusive preview.
* It’s ‘prima donna’, not ‘pre-madonna’. It’s Italian for ‘first lady’. What on earth is a ‘pre-madonna’? And don’t be so judgmental anyway, you fat cretin.
* ‘Infamous’ does not mean the same thing as ‘famous’. You are not paying your favourite game designer a compliment when you call him infamous. This one should be obvious but god, you people.
* If you insist upon using the term, you could at least spell it right: ‘Cel-shading’, not ‘cell-shading’ – as in an animation cel. Oh, you don’t know what that is. But you’re writing about the style of it anyway. Of course.
* We say (or we ought to) ‘without further ado’, not ‘without further adieu’. ‘Ado’ means ‘the stuff that is happening’ – so, if your presentation has been delayed by commotion or ceremony, you may begin it by saying, “Without further ado...” ‘Adieu’, as you surely must know, means ‘goodbye’. So what are you thinking when you write ‘without further adieu’? What’s that supposed to mean? You don’t know, do you? Because you don’t think; you DON’T THINK; god, I hate you. I hate you so much.


Okay, so you prefer the sugary stuff that will give you cavities and type-2 diabetes?

No, I just prefer the normal stuff that doesn't taste terrible :confused:

I could go on a long rant on why US English is better, but I'll refrain for now.

I think the problem there is we'd both be biased (:

10. People who spell as if they're text messaging, e.g. "You" = "U" and "Are" = "R". This is extremely annoying, even when you're text messaging.

This is something I can really get behind.

2. YouTube videos of really horrible stuff, like Horse Castration or child beating...

Youtube Poops. That said, the original few, and one or two of the newer ones are okay.

[Juhsayngul]

I won't give you my normal bottom 10 but I'll give you my Guitar Hero-related bottom 23-18.
23. People who think Guitar Hero is too hard and should be made easier.
22. Guitar Hero haters.
21. The difference in timing of hitting notes between Guitar Hero II and III, making it so that I can no longer play GH2 well.
20. People who think Guitar Hero is too easy and should be made harder.
19. Friends who won't play Guitar Hero with me anymore.
18. People who rate Guitar Hero: On Tour at 6.5.

5) Waiting months for something to pop up on Ebay, only to have it finally appear when I am flat broke
6) People on Amazon who give a movie or a game bad reviews before its even released (or before they have watched it or played it)
7) Anybody that has ever used the term NOOB as a derogatory term
8) The current price of gasoline
9) The G4 cable channel, or whatever its called now. I used to like watching it during its TechTV days. Now I think its just a pathetic mess.
10) Running out of ideas to put as the final item on this top 10 list

I can't say I disagree with you. The kind of people that make posts like that annoy me as well. I actually should have stated "minor typographical and/or grammatical errors" to clarify the difference. There are just some people that want to point out ANY errors in the posts of others, whether it's big or small.

6. People with bad grammar (ex. Taco Bell "WHY PAY MORE!")
5. Um....not...pigeons. They eat bread crumbs. And they craps on people. Funny stuff.
4. Gamer nerds (Mostly those that talk about the X-box and that f*cking Super Smash Bros Brawl game.)
3. People that just figured out about something and act like they know all about it, when it's been around for years. (ex. 58% of SBCG4AP fans.)
2. Rat Terriers. They're tiny dogs that bark and act all threatening and don't do sh*t about strangers.

Here's a fun fact: Diet Coke contains an artificial sweetener called "Splenda" (a.k.a. "sucralose" (I can't spell that right now)) that contains chlorine. :D Let's all drink Diet Coke and DIE! AHAHAHAHAHAHA........*cough*

Chlorine in diet coke?That is probably not healthy, and probably worse than the classic.Like those "Healthy" Thin Mints that had more fat than the original.

[Tandy 400]

Anyone here ever had New Coke? Everyone says it tastes like crap, and I would like to try some for my self. Also, since they don't make New Coke anymore, what's the point of calling regular Coke...Classic Coke? It's not like people are gonna get confused.

[Tandy 400]

Yes, Diet Coke contains Splenda-->Sucralose-->Chlorine. My grandmother, who is a diabetic, has boxes of Splenda that she uses instead of sugar. She went to the hospital once and they told her to stop using it, but she still does. =\

The reason New Coke flopped was because people thought that it was downright blasphemous to mess with Coke, something of an American tradition even then. Shortly after New Coke came around, they got rid of it and re-released the original coke as "Classic" Coke to help sway public opinion in their favor, and it just stuck.

[Tandy 400]

I think they stopped making WWN. They replaced it as The Sun or something. Nothin' in there but bullcrap horescopes.

Anyone notice how this topic swayed off-topic very quickly?

No it doesn't. Diet Coke uses aspartame (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspartame). Coke Zero uses sucralose (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sucralose).

hahahaha you don't understand chemistry at all. having the presence of chlorine atoms is not necessarily dangerous. table salt has chlorine in the molecular structure but it will not form chlorine molecules.

[wisp]

..but eating to much salt is dangerous and that's probably because of the chlorine, duh.:D
no, just kidding. you're totally right and i am glad you mentioned it. most artificial sweeteners have one or more negative effects if you eat to much of it. that doesn't mean it has the effect of chlorine, because there's a chlorine-atom in there somewhere.

@tabacco: you sure about this? i always wondered what the difference between coke zero and diet coke was. expect zero tastes a little less shi....fty.

hopefully there will be sugarfree vanilla coke soon...i still have to taste that green-tea coke light though. that sounds pretty nasty as well..

[patters]

@tabacco: you sure about this? i always wondered what the difference between coke zero and diet coke was. expect zero tastes a little less shi....fty.


coke zero i believe was to combat pepsi max (i dont think they have that in the US) i cant drink either though cos they taste horrid

[Tandy 400]

Aspartame isn't all that great either. Chemicals not good for ze bodeh and what-not.

Why can't we just drink COCA-COLA or PEPSI? Not Coca-Cola Zero - NOW WITH CHEMICALS! or Pepsi Max - NOW WITH SOME BAD SH*T FOR YOU!?
And the flavors?

Cherry Coke, Vanilla Coke, New Coke, Chocolate Coke (don't ask), Green Tea Coke...

JUST DRINK THE FRIGGING SODA!

err almost everything is a chemical. man made chemicals in foods are often subject to more to more tests than those without man made chemicals, and in fact are often safer than natural counterparts (eg. man made alcohols are cleaner and safer than those derived from plants).

i for one prefer pepsi max to most other carbonated drinks

[someguyfromazoo]

Cherry Coke, Vanilla Coke, New Coke, Chocolate Coke (don't ask), Green Tea Coke...

I've only heard of (and drank) Cherry Coke which isn't half bad. The rest I have not heard of, or drank.I am glad about that.

[tabacco]

Also, high fructose corn syrup isn't really that great for you either. If you live in states that border mexico or canada, though, you can often find imported coke (and other sodas) that are made with cane sugar instead. Here in California, you see a lot of coke bottles imported from Mexico. It's getting popular fast :)

Little fact: Mexico's most popular drink is coke. I read that a while ago, so I don't know how true it is now.

[Botap]

High fructose corn syrup is terrible for you. Natural sugars are much better. And tastier.

And I can back up that statement about Coke from Mexico. It's much sweeter, and I prefer it immensely. If you can find a good, authentic, Mexican food restaurant (shouldn't be too hard in California--we have plenty in Sacramento), you can often order the imported Coke from them.

Damn. Now I need to go shopping at the carniceria.

Although I sound a bit like a hypocrite by agreeing here -- because I have done that myself -- in my defense, the drivers I've done it to were driving recklessly. On the other hand, they don't often bother using their blinkers when they try to go double the speed limit and weave through traffic, so this wouldn't apply to them anyway...
