I know that school has been over for a bit, but in school there has always been those people that you can never like in school. Im talking about the ones that just seem to try to make themselves nuisances. We all have had to deal with them. I personally have a strong dislike for the morons who dress up thinking that they are gangsters, wearing extremley baggy pants that go down to nearly their knees. The worst part is they wear belts to hold them down. And they never seem to stop the insults, many of which make no sense. They also attempt to start fights with other students, which ends up with two students flailing their arms about like twits attempting to hurt eachother.

Discuss what people you couldnt stand, in school or in life, because we know that they will come back to bother you again.

My high school had a dress code-- navy blue polo shirt, khaki pants/skirt, and a belt. Shirts had to be tucked in.

I honestly can't remember a single fight in my four years there. There were only about 400 students in total-- 92 in my graduating class. We all pretty much became good friends.

Not a private school-- just a public school that knew how to do things right. Glad I never had to deal with the silly twits in baggy pants.

A good chunk of this forum. No not you, the ones that live in the Yahtzee posts. I agree with you as well. Yahtzee says a new word like 'Immersion', how many threads popped up about 'Immersion'? Too many.

Agreed. Although I will admit I liked the thread (summing up a half page post here) Immersion? Fuck that.

But I like immersion, especially in my games!

Okay, on topic, I dislike people who think they know what they're talking about but don't. For some reason that seems like everyone I've ever met.

Random irrelevant note: I see no BBCodes... I'm in easily-amused-person/idiot-free Heaven.

I know your pains very well, Soycopter. In middle school I was your typical teenaged satirist, with a god-complex that would make Sony feel self-concious. I was so confident that in my life I'd be a success, I hardly cared about school, and focused all my effort on writing and developing conjunctions of my own name and religious figures to make me sound badass. After I hadn't gotten my novella published by my Freshman year, I turned my focus back to my studies. Unfortunately, it was already too late -- I found myself in the extended, extra help classes, where I was forced to interact with and listen to these dim-witted, stereo-blasting bastards.

Since my Freshman year just ended, I can recall well enough that most of my classes weren't all bad. Sure, I found it odd being in the same Extended Algebra 1 class as my brother's elementary school friend -- who was a Senior. But a lot of my friends ended up in my classes -- the ones I met while in the same kind of classes in middle school -- so I always had someone to talk to. But even with my best friend with me, nothing could ease my blood pressure during my second semester of a class known as Success Skills. Idea of Success Skills: do your homework, because you were too much of a narcissistic prick in middle school to do your homework where the prefix suggests -- home.

My first semester of the class was fine, as a lot more of the kids I knew were there with me. But the second, I was in a much smaller class, where I only knew four people; one of which was an evil temptress who toyed with my heart since homecoming, until I finally got sick of her antics after she started dating her seventh boyfriend throughout our games of flirt-and-tease. The rest of the people were those gangsters, who talked politics -- "George Bush is wack!" -- and blared the worst possible rap songs on their MP3 speakers (They were so hood that they could afford devices to make others suffer through their redundant lyrics.) Those who weren't complete douchebags still could not help but fall behind the King of Assholes, whose name I have fortunately forgotten. He's the kind of scrawny sixteen-year-old who uses the word "vag" in every other sentence, and took a year of boxing and therefore believes he can take down anyone he wants, despite the fact most fights you see in high school derive from heated arguments, so that the participants are too enraged to fight with their heads no matter how much training they've had, unless accidentally headbutting someone.

I never had to deal with them much, but it always bothered me to see them toying with another student from my grade. The sort of malformed fatass whose parents are wealthy enough to buy him clothes at any given time, to fit into whatever click he is clumsily trying to work his way into. He'd take all sorts of crap from them, all the while telling himself that he was their friend. I would have tried to help him realize this, but he was too much of a dick anytime someone other than an upperclassman (or someone from the same class but bigger than him, either physically or egotistically) tried to speak with him. So I decided to let him float in the cesspool of lies and pain.

Mkay, so would this be considered too much of a rant? I read the guidelines, but I've been on a lot of forums and a lot of them have different ideas of rant. Some people think only a novella is worthy of the title, while others think they're anything beyond three sentences and without a zero replacing an o.

After careful consideration, I have determind that my last post was a rant. My bad. Let the newb make his mistakes, please. But feel free to pour boiling hot water on my head.

Immersion is a badass word, by the way.

Meh. I don't think Yahtzee quite qualifies as someone who tries to make himself a nuisance. Being annoyed by him is optional: you don't have to watch his stuff if his humor isn't for you. On the other hand, some of his supporters and detractors would qualify. Whether you like him or not, there's no reason to try to make others feel the same way. Make your point, and move on.

(Note: I'm not impugning any of you. None of you are being annoying about your opinions. Also, I hope I haven't annoyed you.)

trlkly, you have annoyed me to a degree that I am going to flame you until this topic gets closed and I receive a stern email informing me that I've been banned, with an html-thingy of a hand wagging its index finger at me.

I'm not really going to, but my point is that most people complaining about anyone results in a flame fest leading to a lifelong ban; or a ban just long enough to ensure he would no longer have interest in such forums, for his balls would have dropped. (Joking, my balls have dropped and I've enjoyed this place so far)

Yahtzee is awesome and those who disagree are probably just jealous of the fact they can't write ten adjectives in one sentence to describe the density of their balls.

Hmm, I think people missed what I said: I like Yahtzee. I don't like his sheep. How many people used the word 'Immersion' to discribe the feeling that you get in games before his review?

Holy topicjacking Batman-- weren't we talking about baggy-pant wearing wankers in high school?

Christmas without Christ man, try working with them and you'll reach a whole new level of dealing with people you hate.

Back on track with the high school morons. Find the ganster imataters to be extramely annoying, I also find the exceedingly smart kids too be annoying as well. Now don't get me wrong not all very smart people are annoying some are my close friends, but the smart people who think they are so much better and above everyone else simply because they are classed as "gifted".

But then someone else talked about disliking Yahtzee specifically, and so we slowly fell away from the original digression into a sub-digression, or in lamen's terms, a digression stemming from a digression.

I personally have not used the word 'immersion' except when debating the ethics of using it (just now), but I have learned and used words from other satire I've read and/or watched, like the work of Maddox. It's not because I worship him -- all hail Maddox, though -- it's just because big words give my readers big erections, so that they enjoy my writing more. I'll take words where I see them.

But those who truly do jump at a chance to protect Yahtzee and flames anyone who dislikes him do suck. I've loved Zero Punctuation since I first stumbled upon it, but Yahtzee is a big boy with a fancy hat, and surprisingly good looks -- he does not need us to fight his battles. Especially since doing so would only make him think less of you, because he probably has this very perspective on this matter.

Fuck, I know what you mean. Those same smartasses I put up with at school end up only having oral skills, which only amount to practiced phrases and the ability to come up with quick personal remarks. I talked to one of them over Myspace -- yes I use it, and I have the "Own your friends" application, as well; sue me -- and he turned out to be true to the phrase, "all talk." Except in a more literal sense. He is also very scrawny, by the way.

self edit, insomniac rant that contributed nothing, please delete the post, thankyou.

Except people still go out of their way to bother people, and it is those people who I dislike. It doesn't matter how they act in situations I hopefully won't have to deal with them in -- some people act like douchebags in any setting. Things like their appearance or what music they listen to isn't the reason I', against them; it's the fact those qualities often accompany those people who like to antagonize me, that I sometimes associate those qualities with assholes. But really there are some people with those attributes who I didn't hate, and even liked. But whatever I say here or think most of the time is moot, as you said, because it will rarely spill into my daily life.

well in life there are many people that i can't get along with (even outside of a structured environment), and those are usually people associated with a group or culture. I agree with the original post in that i dislike the gang esque culture that attracts so many people in the common day and age. But it is not because of the actual person but because of the culture that surrounds them and how they choose to act. The gang/rap culture is especially annoying to me because it's not only a youth culture but the culture of poverty, and as a result they embrace the butchering of things that are respected in normal society, such as: good grammar, respect for women, perusing of arts, reverence for fellow men, abiding by the law, and the uplifting of non material possessions such as love, relationships and intelligence.

When i see people of normal standing and intelligence embrace this counterculture, it infuriates me because i can't fathom, that someone would willingly give into the pathetic over glamorized lifestyle of a glorified criminal just because they think it's "cool". this decision creates a rift in the relationship, that is very hard for me to cross over if I want to be their friend

It can't be healthy to hate people just because they bother you. Soon you will begin to stereotype and over generalize people whom you perceive as belonging to irky groups. Just begin to dislike, not hate, everbody the same amount and pretty soon you will feel better.

It's less that i hate them and more of "i have a distaste for them" But, when dealing with things such as a specific youth counterculture then i can generally dislike everyone in that culture, because unlike a being an African, Latino, American, Chinese, women or man, they have a choice and their choice is to emulate a specific thing. It's like saying you hate a Pillsbury cookie, so you can generally assume that the cheap Kroger knock-off isn't going to be to your liking either.

Your posts are soooo......Immersive. And I do agree with you, ZP sheep (along with any sort of sheep I suppose) tend to piss me off. 4 legs good, two legs better my ass.

I go to a rather friendly performing arts school and everyone gets fairly along well, we're not all Best friends forever but no one hates or bullies anyone else. However there is one guy who pisses me off so much.

We all know these people, the people who act smart but are infact as dumb as all hell. This guy (who shall remain nameless) always acts like he knows more than the teachers, never bothers to do anything in class but make smug laughter at his own stupid jokes and try and disprove the teachers on what they are teaching. He ruins the lessons by arguing with the teachers because he thinks it makes him look like the smartest person in the room. What pisses me off is that most people think he is the smartest person in the school, and so the guy just gets more stuck up his own ass. But when a test comes around he says he isn't good at tests and people still think he is the smartest of the lot and then when reports come along he says that the school is crap (it's the best school in the area by the way) and blames the teachers for him doing badly. And once the guy drank from my can of solo and I had to throw it out, who the hell does that? The guy is full of himself and I hate him for it.

Sorry...that was a bit of a rant but this sort of person really pisses me off.

Geeks. Those kids who cant talk to girls and theyre moms still choose the clothe they wear.
I have a particularly annoying geek in my class. He thinks hes a tough guy and we cant joke with him or even point out a bad point in him.

Me: Your so shut up today, dude.
Geek: *shouts in a though guy voice* ´have a problem witat, DUDE!-he said, mocking my "dude".
Me: i was just asking you, you get pissed off easily.
Geek: NO, YOU GET PISSED OF EASILY!

God, what an annoying dick...

Fire, have you tried telling him? Well don't, because if so many people actually think so highly of him you'll likely end up getting ridiculed. I've tried it before, and it's worked out only amongst groups of people I had equal or superior standings with compared to the douche in question. Even then it's a pretty big risk.

Nicksus: I have told others how I feel about the guy but I wouldn't tell him. I know the guy wouldn't listen to me and would end up just getting his friends and shout me down. I would end up looking like the idiot.

Yeah, people suck like that. So you could either not care about having friends there and become that kid's personal ego-shrinker, or you could just ignore him.

People who are disruptive, misbehave, and when the teacher gives them a detention or whatever they actually try complaining! IT'S NEVER GOING TO WORK!

Those who constantly whined about "how tough school is" or "how tough life is". I've been to parts of the world where people would LITERALLY give a kidney or lung to afford their child a decent education. And yet I find colossal jack-asses who complain about going to school, for FREE.

I went to a private school. It was a pretty damn good school as well. Parents payed thousands of dollars to send their kids there. And yet you had complete jackasses who wouldn't pay attention, try to disrupt the class, take it all for granted. It made me want to pop a blood vessel.

I also hated the "hyper-sexual" boys and girls. They sickened me.

Korolev, you would probably want to kill those types of kids in my school. My school has four different classes a day, and they don't alternate every other day or anything like other schools. Those are the only classes you sign up for in a semester. Very rarely do people get homework from all of their core classes in one day, and most people either have one or two exploritories -- or even a free block. Which means most kids have either one or two homework assignments a night, and some even take that class I described earlier, where they do nothing but homework for an entire one-hour-and-twenty-five minute class period. They could easily have their homework done before the class ends. That is, if they weren't such stubborn jackasses who won't even help themselves when the opportunity is handed to them on a silver platter with a waiter to spoonfeed you.

Then teachers have given up their right legs to help out their students, and yet they still resented them for giving them work in the first place. My math teacher, for example, gave us a really easy project that a fifth grader could do (not even joking, all we did was copy down sample problems and other notes into a handmade booklet), and was worth more points than the final. I really needed that project, because I missed so much school in that final grading period that I missed a lot of the lessons, and also missed a lot of homework assignments. But I brought my grade from a low F to a C, which was just enough to get the credits for the class. Yet my best friend was offered by the same teacher, full credits for the entire year -- even though he already failed two grading periods -- so long as he scored a D or higher on the final. He got an F. He was even in that success skills class with me. I haven't given him a hard time about it, but I still can't help but be angry that he threw away such a great opportunity.

Sorry, that was a bit of a rant.

Hmm, they ARE quite an nuisance.

Although I believe that the Rap (mis-translated from Danish: Quack) has destroyed the minds of them. Also, they never seem to get the differency between a greeting, and a challenge.

There's this one manager where I work who is just an all-around dick. He always needs to be doing some project every second, and is of the opinion that you need to be too. I dread ever sharing a shift with him. And personality-wise he's a dick too: just very smug and cocky, and a know-it-all, always going on about being a genius. And he's always cracking sexist, degrading jokes. He's rather short, so I'm sure he has a Napoleon complex of some sort. And he just comes and goes as he pleases with no repercussions because the general manager loves him. GRRRR I JUST WANT TO STAB HIM IN THE FACE

Yes, this is a rant, but I don't give a damn!

Working under douchebags sucks, especially when you need their approval or consent for something.

Luckily, my school has a uniform policy. Most schools in Australia do. None of these crappy clothes, although I will report that after a quick trip to the city I have a new hatred for colourful jackets with sneaker prints and gelled hair.

Want to know what I love? Those cheap shirts from Wal-Mart with phrases like, "Genius by birth, slacker by choioce." I own that one.

I knocked one of those guys out on Thursday. He wasn't just one of "those people" he was a bully and a generally unlikeable idiot

I got a standing ovation. And a detention, after school....It was worth it
