    Classical music is your friend. *nods vigourously* Although it sucks if someone shouts out something like "More Vivaldi!" halfway through a Bach piece.

    Man nobody does that

    Annoying is when people skip out of the show early because the next piece on the program offends their precious little ears

    The Bartok was the highlight of the show, you sons of bitches

    Somebody did that once. That person was pretty damned lucky that no one in the concert hall had a fork.

    I'm certainly not anti-feminist but I really dislike girls who use feminism as a scapegoat for behaving as sexist as they like. It ruins the credibility of feminism to everyone around them.

    Yeah, people have really let the term feminism get trashed. Like, we were in class (college course, mind you) and the teacher was like. Now, someone who hates women is called a misogynist, what's someone who hates men called? A student raised his hand and said a feminist. Pretty much everyone agreed with them. I was face palming so hard. I was like, no, that's a misandrist. Feminists by definition believe in equality.

    Though they could have picked a hell of a lot better name them Feminist if they were for equality. Like, I dunno, equalist or something.

    Seriously. I would actually go to concerts if people didn't do that. Every time someone asks me if I want to go to one I say no because I know I won't actually be able to hear any of the music, and then they act confused as if they're wondering why I would want to hear music at a concert.

    It's fucking stupid.

    It's just one area where almost everyone agrees, and also, almost everyone has given the issue pathetically little thought. Furthermore, the arguments often take the form of "why should I have to care about something else?" Which steams my gizzard.

    Not that I'm a hardcore in-your-face vegan; only recently have I actively tried to go veggie. Rather, I think it's a serious issue which people totally gloss over with lame bullshit.

    I think one of the worst arguments for not eating meat I've heard would be "Because animals are cute." The minor reason for this is that, for one, I don't think cattle are especially cute (chickens, pigeons and pigs perhaps, but not cattle). But the main reason for thinking this is a crap argument is because there must be better reasons for not eating meat.

    I haven't eaten dog. You know, because it's too cute. Every time you eat a dog, a puppy dies.

    However, I can recommend pigeon.

    I always love multiple choice arguments. But what's with "human genitalia"? This must be some new argument I've never heard of before, and I am intrigued.

    It's really tough and kind of stringy and bland. I would not recommend eating dog unless you had to. Cat's are fairly similar. Predators in general just don't make very good food.

    Thing 1:
    I hate girls who decide to show their interest in me by acting like royal bitch goddesses. I think the convoluted thought process goes something like this.

    "Gee, he's cute and he's got a halfway decent sense of humor. How can I possibly get his attention? I know! I'll be a complete pain in the ass! My brilliant plan can't possibly fail!"

    Thing 2:
    Also, I hate women who play the "lets you and him fight" game. I've had to cut loose one of my closest friends because she wanted to see me and her new boyfriend fight. I think I figured it out somewhere around the time we were talking and she said," I want to see you and My Boyfriend fight." And just so we're clear I'm not talking about a small scuffle or a friendly wrestling match. I mean a knock down drag out fist fight.

    And because I'm an equal opportunity hater.

    Thing 3:
    I hate guys who try to put me down to impress whatever skirt they're currently interested in, cock waving, pissing contests, and male posturing in general. I will gladly play your little game, and what's more I will absolutely beat you at it.

    Thing 4:
    I hate White Knights who rush off to defend their damsel in distress because someone had the nerve to be mean over the internet. All it takes is one look at the girl in question to realize they're just as chauvinistic as the guys who think women should be back in the kitchen. Barefoot and pregnant.

    Also. about the pissing contest thing. I'll be the first to admit the guys who do it are absolutely too stupid to learn from their mistakes but even a two year old can interpret the wounded looks on their face when I shut them down. Trust me, it is NOT a pleasant experience for them.

    When you put MAD in caps do you mean angry, or mutually assured destruction?

    Feral: True, but there are a couple distinctions that need to be made here. Having issues doesn't mean someone is going to play games. And I'll personally let issues slide if for no other reason that I've got them in spades and of the many things I can be accused of a hypocrite isn't going to be one of them. Also, there are plenty of games "sane" people play. I think Thing 1, 3, and the "Conceiving elaborate plans" I talked about on the third page would qualify depending on how you define the word "game".



    Ok, here's the biggest thing I hate.

    I can count the number of friends I have right now on a closed fist and every time I try and change that, they end up being the type of people I've been bitching about the last two pages.
