things that tilt you

[supa]

things that tilt me .... when they reward chasers i hate when they take it to the river and hit

People that don't realize why this is a good thing and whine about it.

Also people who state "things that tilt me" in the things that tilt me thread.

the guy sitting next to me on the plane yesterday using a PC headset with mic to listen to music, wtf

watching hbo's "girls" and knowing that people really are that stupid

[aubreymcfate]

watching hbo's "girls," identifying to an unsettling degree, and knowing that i really am that stupid.

Football players who wear gloves with short sleeved shirts. If you're fucking cold, put a long sleeved top on.

[fjuanl]

The ad bar shown at the top of google searches take a split second longer to load than the search results. So often I get ready to click a link and that fucking thing pops up

[rpm]

eczemer (not sure of spelling)

[MadMojoMonkey]

The skin condition?

Oh: Idiots driving the speed limit in the passing lane.

[rpm]

yah skin condition

[supa]

eczemer (not sure of spelling)

Eczema. Had it all my life. If it's new to you pm me and I can probably lead you in a good direction for getting help instead of going on the wild goose chase of cures that won't help.

And yes, this tilts me too.

Survey popups on websites. I get "randomly selected" pretty much every time I visit some sites, and they use iframes over the content so you can't ignore them.

Similarly -- websites that use the same tactic on a time delay to try to get you to sign up for their newsletter.

Pro-tip - Right click on the element, choose Inspect Element, hit Delete key. It's a couple steps but it's quicker than filling out their lame-ass survey, plus it has the added benefit of stickin' it to the man!

When adults talk in baby voice to babies.

How are the poor kids supposed to learn to speak properly if you do that?

Football players. With or without gloves.

Colleagues who have to have the last word in every email exchange. Especially when that last word is just 'ok' or 'thanks'.

[eugmac]

yeah.

[eugmac]

But no seriously, even a one-word response shows that they read and acknowledged your last message, so i personally don't really see that as inappropriate in any way, unless you can give me a convincing example otherwise.

When two people who love to get the last word in are saying bye on the phone, now that's amusing. But I think everybody does it to some extent, the "Ok thanks so much, speak to you again soon." "likewise! have a nice day." "Thanks! Ok bye now." "Ok bye, take care". "You too!" "Thanks!"

I wonder how long this is allowed to go on before it's socially unacceptable, and likewise, how short is too short? I know one man who you'd be in the middle of a conversation with, and as soon as he's decided he's done with you he says "bye now." *click*.

[Luco]

Meh, I don't even reply to most of the emails I get unless there's a good reason. You sent it to me, I got it, consider it done, now stop clogging my inbox. People spend way too much time in their email clients in general imo and I bet I could find some correlation between actual productivity and email usage.

[Pascal]

i bet you could find actual studies on that without doing one yourself

[Luco]

i bet you could find actual studies on that without doing one yourself

That's actually what I meant, I guess it wasn't clear.

Before you say anything about my productivity I'm on lunch right now.

I've never had a real office job, but my dad used to lecture me saying it ain't done until you've followed up to make sure the message was received. So in your case, you'd have my dad calling you up to make sure you got his email since you never replied to acknowledge.

[Luco]

Yeah but there's a limit.

[eugmac]

True.

[Luco]

I just remembered something else for the tilt thread:

non players posting in ww and telling people to lynch me

[eugmac]

*diabolical laffter*

[Pascal]

you take this WW to heart

[Luco]

Yeah it didn't really tilt me, quite the opposite

[rong]

I imagine my productivity drops considerably when a werewolf game is on.

Thinking about the email thing reminds me of something I've learnt to do. Whenever anyone more senior than me gives me a remotely complicated task verbally I always email them stating exactly what they told me to do before I actually do it so they can't screw me later by saying "that's not what I told you to do".

And to keep on topic, it tilts me that I have to do that.

Whether I'm receiving instructions or delegating tasks I always wrap up with a clear, concise summary to avoid getting screwed

[eugmac]

it's fucking beautiful weather outside and i'm inside working instead of say, outside drinking beer.

[eugmac]

working really really hard as you can see.

[Luco]

Yeah my lunch break finished an hour ago

[Pascal]

tilts me that I struggle to write directly and use 20 words where 5 will do

[Pascal]

aka i use too many words fml

Stop having Canadian friends. /problem

[Pascal]

If they were Canadian friends it would look more like this: "Sorry!" "Sorry!" "Sorry!" "Sorry" "Sorry" "Sorry" "I'm really sorry" "It's OK I'm sorry too"

[seven-deuce]

Here's one, when your your sitting chatting to somebody and they keep tapping their foot. Bugs the fuck outta me.

[kiwiMark]

I used to be a leg twitcher.

[rong]

I still am when I'm bored.

[Luco]

Me too, but only the middle leg

[rong]

People starving.

[BennyLaRue]

People starving.

Wilbur must think that is anti-tilting.

[jyms]

The amount of people on this and other forums, Facebook and twitter that don't know the difference between looser and loser. Using one makes you the other.

That and people that type in short form text speak on said sites!!

[Luco]

I'm not much of a grammar nazi jyms, but that one makes me loose my shit

[MadMojoMonkey]

Yeah, I wont name names, but someone here does it constantly, and it is a bit tilting every time I read it.

[Hawk]

I'm sure their just going too do it more often now, just two make people loose there minds.

[Savy]

I do it all the time, come @ me!

[supa]

People starving.

Feed them.

[givememyleg]

I'm sure their just going too do it more often now, just two make people loose there minds.

This is more tilting when your 20 than when you're 40+. I look at it as "good, still works without meds"

[Luco]

loooooooooooool

Kinda like getting asked for ID. Tilting in your teens, high praise after that.

could be worse, ftp could be sending you free donkament tickets and massive bonuses every 5s and you can't collect them.

Planning permission being granted for 31 dwellings to be built directly behind my house, which is currently just fields with nothing else between my back garden and the cliffs and sea. Prob knock 20% off the value of my house too and definitely ruins my lovely view.

Whatever. You were just going to masturbate 5 times anyway, just to see if you still can in one day.

[kingnat]

whiskey dick. seriously, what cruel joke to play that the best scenario for nefarious sexual behavior with some young hottie comes after I've been drinking all day, and then can't manage to put my best foot forward. Things usually still "work" sufficiently well, but, yes, very tilting.
