Pet Peeves

What really gets on your nerves?

For me it has to be noisy eaters above anything. I can't stand people who make loud noises when eating.

 

[Felix]

slurping and people who breathe through their mouth while eating

 

[tMoon]

- Very loud breathing in a movie theater
- Windshield wipers being on too fast/the screechy sound they can make
- When a public transit leaves early.. just a minute early and you can see it drive away ;(

When people are impolite.

Or when people change their name from Ghast to Kiro.

Black Lives Matter pisses me off...
I love black people, but this is just stupid

Care to shine light on why a movement attempting to bring into focus the ridiculous nature of the U.S. law enforcement's use of lethal weapons with practically no consequences "pisses you off"; albeit, specifically mentioning U.S. policing unfairly effectively black communities?

Yes, so stupid. I have black friends, I can't be racist!

There are better ways to do it.
Going around yelling "Lets Kill cops" is not how your get your point across...
Cops are there to protect the lives of people. I'm more afraid of Blacklivesmatter people killing me than cops.
On a final note. Why are black lives matter going after cops, mainly white cops? There are more Black on Black crime/deaths/shootings than white cops killing blacks who actually do something wrong?
Riddle me that?

Your post shows you're quite unfamiliar with the movement itself.

• What are the "better ways"? Peaceful protest is generally one of the first steps taken with any systematic issues.
• Who is going around yelling "lets kill cops"? You are not going to find an mandated black lives matter protests even suggesting such thing. Sure, there will be outliers and radicals at protests, but if you were to generalize an entire movement via a few outliers than well.. I would be categorizing all cops as racists whom are actively attempting to harass minorities through the actions of a few. Black Lives Matter is there to bring attention to the issue in an attempt at helping solve it. They are not advocating deaths of police officers; rather, simply for them to use restraint in use of lethal weapons.
• People are aware of the duties of police officers; however, their job does not excuse them from being human and possibly prejudice. Statistics show a difference in white/black unarmed shootings among other things (ex: marijuana use being actually higher among white individuals but black people having 3-5x the arrest rate
• Your fear shows misunderstanding
• Going after cops? The entire movement is aimed at police officers killing of people (as a whole) and black people specifically. They are not going after specifically white cops; rather, it's more often white cops that have been involved in such altercations. Remember Freddie Gray? There were multiple individuals involved in that (6) and most of them were not white. Guess what? It still was protested and the case itself went to trial.
• You are regurgitating some rhetoric from Donald Trump. If you're going to make such claims, please provide some statistics and even if your claims are accurate, it does not dismiss the current problem of police over-use of force. Also, race-on-race murder is not something that is exclusive to African-American communities; rather, it is the standard. Also, here's some statistics for you:
  • 2,630 white people killed 3,172 white people while 2,447 African-Americans killed 2,695 African-Americans. Source: 2010 FBI UCR
• "blacks who actually do something wrong" you realize under the U.S. justice system you are innocent until proven guilty? Also, I hardly believe selling cigarettes or traffic infractions warrant a possible death. Oh, and that sentence sounds incredibly racist.
• Also, Black Lives Matter just further gave attention to yet another police shooting today in which a deaf and mute man was shot after getting out of his car when he did not pull over for a speeding violation. Guess what? He wasn't white.

1. Better ways as in not stopping major highways/streets. How about you do a peaceful movement? What about that incident in Texas where a black man with a sniper purposely killed cops? My point why I'm scared of black lives movement.

2. You're reitirating yourself in the next few points that you're trying to argue.

3. "Cops killed nearly twice as many whites as blacks in 2015. According to data compiled by The Washington Post, 50 percent of the victims of fatal police shootings were white, while 26 percent were black."

4. "Blacks are more likely to kill cops than be killed by cops. This is according to FBI data, which also found that 40 percent of cop killers are black. According to Mac Donald, the police officer is 18.5 times more likely to be killed by a black than a cop killing an unarmed black person."

Mosquitoes when you are trying to sleep. Those little suckers go right for your ears and make the worst, high-pitched buzzing sound ever. And then you know how idiotic you look and are for flailing around in the dark trying to hit the minuscule thing. And then as soon as you are dozing off again......high pitched buzzing directly in your ear and the sound of a faint, mosquito-like laugh.

 

People who gamble money in front of you when they know damn well they owe you money.

When I go to a gas station and there's 10 gasoline pumps and 2 diesel pumps, yet everyone's parked at the diesel pumps with their gas cars............ annoying

I will respond more thoroughly I get motivated enough to write a long post.

edit:

That is literally what peaceful protesting is and you're grasping at straws with outlier and very rare events. Nearly half of police fatalities come from car accidents and the job's stereotypical "firefight danger" is not nearly as probable.

Hmm, you see that as more white people than black people while I see it as black individuals being killed nearly 2x as much as their population % while whites are over 10% less.

You - and the article you linked - throw around statistics in an attempt to misconstrue them. There are WAY more black people than cops, of course it is more likely for a black person to kill a cop than the other way around. I imagine the statistics are the same for white people. Also where is that 18.5 # from? Mac Donald? Give me a paper, some research, not some individual claiming it.

I don't want some bias article that is blatantly there to fill some agenda. Go directly through the UCR, give me stats and reasoning, not some regurgitation of fox-news-like media. Think of your response and don't just google "black crime stats" in an attempt to respond to my post. You are not debating me and are practically googling your response.

PS. You didn't debunk anything.

Where do you live?

In a college town

 

When someone sticks me up, that is the #1 way you get on my bad side.

I'm actually done now for one reason and one reason only. I gave you straight facts, and you don't believe them. You're so hard headed over black lives matter that you don't believe actual facts that were in front of your face.

P.S: ALL LIVES MATTER
You're wrong for sticking with one color of skin tone. Maybe fight for better living/equality for everyone. There is still racism/profiling going around in this world. Let's all come together and fix it. Stop this black lives matter BS, and turn it into ALL Lives Matter

Didn't know "black lives matter" meant "only black lives matter". A bit weird and telling how you came to that deduction of the group.

No reply. Feelsbadman.

If it's really important and they don't reply it rustles me. If it isn't important and they don't reply it doesn't. But if I give some long winded mea culpa and they ignore it. Tough. I don't think it's gendered either, it's happened with both.
