Come on now, everyone has something(s) that really get to them. I'm writing this because one of mine is:

<b>old women who love to give their advice on everything</b>

This doesn't bother me in itself, it's the fact that they come out with the most simple of comments but then look all smug like they have said the most profound thing in the world, ever. Oh and the fact that it's always the same snippets of "profound" advice, several times a day :roll:

And I get this every day at work and it makes me sit here going crazy :evil:

What really bugs you? Give a rationale if you think it is neccessary, or just list your pet peeves (sp?)

//edit sorry buggered my bold tags.... :roll:

Yeah. That bugs the hell out of me too.

Another thing that really makes me cross is when someone looks down on you if you are ignorant about some triviality. Example: I was talking with someone at a bar recently and he mentioned this local band. I said I hadn't heard of them and he looked at me like I was a leper. He kept ranting on and on about how he could not believe that I was unaware of this band. and kept nudging his friend, "Can you believe this guy??". Needless to say, I excused myself cursing the lout. :roll:

someone's not aware of the copyright laws methinks.

Any intellectual property is protected by copyright. It's not like a patent. You don't have to pay or register or get a lawyer. Copyright is a right. You <b>can</b> further protect stuff by paying for registration or whatever, which is more an aid for <b>enforcing</b> your rights, but not registering does not prevent you from having copyright.

You don't even need a copyright symbol. You just have to make something original and you get copyright by default. Assuming it is original and you haven't violated someone else's copyright in the first place.

//edit, ok in the US apparently you <b>do</b> need the copyright symbol :? but thats all you need:

http://allsands.com/Writing/copyrightregist_rtz_gn.htm
http://www.businesslink.gov.uk/bdotg/ac ... 1073791359
http://www.societyofauthors.net/faqs/copyright.html

They're all off the first google page for "copyright my work".


It might be useful to note that ignorance of the law is no defense against prosecution....

Grandmothers beards!! lol, when my nan was alive she used to kiss me on the cheek and when she did all her stubble used to prick me! That used to really bug me cos it used to burn me!

No offense if your reading nan :shock:

Another thing that annoys me is when silly people make pop up boxes on their sites but you are unable to read parts of the stuff that are inside them as its non resizable!

Feel better now after getting that of my chest lol :)

My pet hate is people who think they are god's gift to the world. I think its more common is woman but guys do it too. Its like if you're in a night club there's always girls who think they are absolutely gorgeous and think they are one better than you, its just a thing that emanates from them. - i spot it a mile off... :lol:

Know wot I mean? it's probably just me that gets pi**ed off at that... :P

Hmm... I hate when people piss in non-home bathrooms and get their piss all over the place. And I have to deal with this every day because of college dorming. It's disgusting! Some people just don't know how to clean up after themselves. *shakes head*

where to start.....

when the t.v. upstairs is loud and I am trying to sleep
when my family members are loud.. anytime
when my little brother asks to go on my computer everytime I am not near it.
When people walk really slow... (I don't drive...)
when people stop and socialize in the middle of a busy school hallway.
When people think they are "cool" and independent because they wear some sh*t they see some "punk" band on t.v. wear.
When people think they are right, and will continue to argue even if I have given them more then enough proof they are wrong.
When people are really ignorant...
when people think it's "cool" to do bad in school
When someone mess around with my stuff with out asking.
when someone turns up their bass on their car in a drive-in movie.

That's enough for now.

I'm talking that this girl was studying web design too....she caused some trouble on my old forum and I kicked her out. She then went and redesigned ALL my websites, exact layout and graphics! Copyright symbol on them but the point was it was MY work!! I tried to go through microsoft copyright law but the *itch went and made earlier creation dates on everything therefore looking like I copied HER so I dropped it!
Love always,
Bee xxx

:? huh?

Yeah, creation dates are never enough to prove copyright - every court in the land would know you can change them without even trying.

@tom the great: lol I can relate to most of them (not the drive in movies though - I don't even think they exist over here.....)
