    Religious people trying to persuade me that their religion is the exact religion that I need in my life.

    Religious people assuming that atheist is exactly the same as 'devil worshiper' , ' Sex offender', 'baby eater' and almost any other 'scum of the earth' descriptor that you could think of....

    Religious people assuming that I have no morals as I have no god in my life.

    Hi, I just wanted to introduce myself as a religious person who isn't what you just described. :flowerforyou: Although, to be fair, I wouldn't believe what I believe if I didn't think it would also benefit other people. And I don't think any one people group of any kind has the monopoly on immorality. Or hypocrisy, for that matter.

    Unreasonably angry... well, last night we were watching an episode of Lie To Me, where a building collapsed and the response of rescuers was to run and stand on the very site where they thought people were buried alive. Hey, lets jump up and down and park a few dump trucks on it, too! GET OFF THE RUBBLE, YOU IDIOTS!!!

    the term "special snowflake"
    music snobs
    "I'm an equal opportunity offender"
    people who don't understand that being honest and having tact aren't mutually exclusive
    when someone freaks out over the emergence of new words or new meanings for existing words
    seeing a person try so hard to get attention that you can practically feel the heat of desperation radiating off of their bodies

    I'll add to that anyone who won't accept "I'm not interested in discussing my belief (or rather lack thereof) with you, could we change the subject please?" as a respectful alternative to rehashing the perpetual theist/atheist debate.

    All these pages and no one has mentioned:

    Picker/flickers?? ( these are the people who pick their nose while driving, in full view, then examine what they found before flicking it out of their window).....

    Picker/Eaters.....*gag* no explanation required *gag*

    People who smoke and throw their cig butts out of the window while driving.

    People on MFP who always derail posts...

    When I stub my toe, get a paper cut or scrape my knuckles.

    Hearing "Nu-cu-lar" instead of "Nu-clear" ( this is as bad as Picker/Eaters!!)

    The sound of people chewing in general, not just noisy chewers/people that chew with their mouth open.

    People that stand at the bus stop across from my apartment just yelling at the people they're with even though they're less than 2 feet away from each other. If I can hear your conversation word for word 100 feet away, you're too loud.

    Sociologists who announce 'discoveries' of stuff we've known all along, e.g. kids with rich parents do better at school. Gosh, really?
    People who earn money for sending letters to magazines with 'handy hints' my grandmother would have thought were old ideas e.g. Leave your clothes-pegs on the washing line to save time.
    Stupid, ugly, untalented, unskilled people who sneer at the idea of earning the National Minimum Wage : "I wouldn't get out of bed for that kind of money."
    People who think the world stops at the edges of America - helloooo? I think you'll find there are several other continents out here, actually.
    Anything to do with recycling, especially those horrible bins of rotting food which don't get collected for two weeks - gross.
    Large noisy flies which won't stop buzzing past your head as if they have some kind of death-wish.

    New study finds that broccoli is really good for you!

    New study finds that carrots are good for you!

    New study to determine if apples are good for you!

    Do we really have to study one vegetable or fruit at a time to figure out that these things are healthier than junk food? Can we be spared the tedium of scientifically studying each individual vegetable or fruit to see if it's healthy? Isn't is abundantly obvious that eating whole fruits and vegetables is almost always better than eating heavily processed foods, junk foods, or "fake" foods? Nah. Let's conduct studies and not connect the dots between them to just announce: abundant evidence demonstrates that eating more fruits and vegetables is better than eating crap. . . and be done with it. . .

    Oh, and liars. I get unreasonably mad about liars. Also about unreasonable people. Oh, and users.
