Gosh... Now I have a word to what annoys me the most about my dad! o.o

Yup! It made me really happy to have a word too. Of course, now you have to explain the concept of 'splaining ... but perhaps it will catch on and then everyone will know.

Oh! And I remembered something I wanted to list last night but forgot until now:

The new LOTRO ad that ends with "Answer the Call of War!" The gall of Turbine to use 'Answer the Call' in an ad for another game just makes me so furious I could spit.

What grinds my gears in wow:

- Pallys that never buff. 5 pallys in a 25 toc pug - WHY DO I ONLY HAVE SANCTUARY!!!!! This one drives me insane. Make the pally buffs like priests, so if they kings, its kings'es the entire raid, if they might it might's the entire raid. That way you can go, PALLY 1 KINGS, PALLY 2 MIGHT, PALLY 3 WISDOM, and watch them group buff by clicking one button each (like the Kings drums). RAWRRRRR. Ive now taken to monitoring my combat log, and whispering each pally asking for a separate buff now.

- People who won't take helpful advice. Them peoples who have ALL the wrong talents, you offer to help them politely (offered to help a healy priest I know (I used to be top geared priest horde side on the realm) and they were missing all the key talents), and they unleashed a torrent of rage upon me! I'm not trying to be elitest, im trying to help u not oom after 2 heals, that hit for nothing... my hunter raids as BM - LOL Im not doing this to be an ass!

- People who insist the stacking strat on Marrowgar is the best, and ask you to melee on your hunter, as its better for the raid to all be in one lump. <= Ive seen this strat fail so many times, why don't they all do it normally where u spread out and dps the spikes!! 9/10 times they then complain about your DPS after you were told to MELEE or get kicked..

- People who use gearscore. GUYS some of the best trinkets/items are not the highest ilevel. I don't need an ilevel set just to get into raids, to then swap back into my other gear for the actual fight..

- People who ask where you got the "blue wolf" from. Once you explain they DEMAND to know where it spawns. You tell them to google as there are 3 spawn locations, and 6 spawn points, and its too hard to explain, yet they keep going "COMEONE JUST TELL ME PLOX SO I CAN GET TOO OK". They are also survival specced.

- People that dont say thanks I've healed for countless groups at no benefit to myself, and had no thanks at the end. The other day I healed a ICC 10 man first 5 bosses. They raid leader had offered me 500g to heal it. At the end of the run he put the 500g in the trade window, and I said "Nah dude I wouldn't actually take 500g off you to heal a run, you keep it, thanks for the invite ". He didn't say anything, not even a thanks for coming lol or thanks for not taking my gold when anyone else would have!

Ahh now I feel better LOL

People who don't have a summon for the daily valentine's boss who join your group anyway and try to hide it...

...and the free credit report commercials. Pray to your gods I don't find you signing guitar greasy hair guy...

Falling down icy, slippery stairs...
It hurt!

*cringes* Ugh, I did that last winter at my old apartment building. >< Took a step on the cement stairs and my foot just went out from under me. I landed on my tailbone and twisted my arm badly when I tried to catch myself.

I hate getting a beer out of the fridge that hasnt been there long, and taking the first swig to realise its slightly too warm .

Even worse:

I hate it when I leave "empty" beer bottles on my desk. Then when im raiding I go to grab a sip of my ice cold fresh beer, but instead pick up yesterdays "empty" which has a small amount of rank WARM beer in the bottom, which I swig without noticing until it hits my toungue.

^^ I do this weekly, And I never learn. (a bit like Tim the toolman from home improvement, who always hits his head on the pipe in the basement whenever he goes down the stairs)

Argh, I do that often with drinks around my computer desk. Nothing's more disgusting than reaching for, say, a glass of water only to grab the old one and chug it down. Then you look at it and realize it's got little dust floaties on the surface from sitting there. -.-

That reminds me of when I found a two year old Red Bull. The worst part was that it was unopened.

/shudder

I have a small list.

The coupons at my store usually do not apply to most of what's in my department. I am tired of telling every customer that comes to me with a small kitchen electric, a set of pans, or a Shark floor sweeper, that no, I am sorry, but that coupon will not apply to these items. Read the small print, people.

People asking me how to get to the mall. My department is in the basement level. There has never ever been mall access from that level. There never will be. My store has been there for a long time, yet people still walk around in circles, wondering where the mall is. Just like they cannot find a register, or the elevator, or the escalator, regardless of posted signs.

My city has scaled back on the plowing this year. We might get a single pass by a salt truck, but we won't see a plow for a long time. And we live on a hill, on a hill. Bad combo.

Drivers in Massachusetts in general. They are an impatient, crazy lot, caring only that they get there, never mind the rest of the drivers on the road.

Ah, I feel a little better now.

People that play WoW and think they know it all! They give advice to people in party chat in such a pretentious and cocky way...Well, it seems like that anyway! My friend thinks he knows it all too, just because he has 3 or 4 level 80's, when i first tried Surv i didn't think it was as good as MM and when i told him he said "just use serpent sting, arcane shot, explosive shot..." I instantly jumped in and said "They share CD" and then he acted as if he hadn't played one for ages. He's listed his characters and none of them were hunters, so i assume he's never played one. Facepalm much!

I've met some pretty horrible people while using the RDT on my Mage... Just yesterday there was this Hunter with a gorilla. First thing he says when we enter the instance? "What's your main's gearscore?" ... When I said that who cares, he went all "suck my cock!"

He kept using Eyes of the Beast on his gorilla and aggroing HUGE amounts on mobs on it... No chance for a tiny break, when the previous mobs had 10% HP left, he would already be fighting a new pack. When he did control his Hunter instead of the pet, he would always be in Viper and occasionally melee things that weren't even attacking him. I've been keeping an eye on my own DPS on recount, and noticed that he was doing a measly 43 DPS. At level 36. >.< Very often he would also say how he could solo the place. In the end I ended up losing my nerves and going "well if you think you can solo this, feel free to leave the group and solo".

I fell down the same stairs. Now my elbow hurts.
