things that tilt you

Movie trailers tilt me shitless. They insist on giving away the entire plot in 30 seconds or less, showing exactly who will die, where it takes place, etc. I don't give a fuck, I just want to see the damn movie and not be spoiled. Everywhere there's a fast 6 trailer I have to avoid, an iron man 3 trailer i have to duck under. And then there's the movie reviewing assholes, who go like "Plot point A, I really liked. Plot point B I didn't like so much. Plot point C had to die, I mean you saw that from a mile away. And plot point D, well, that's Hitchockian and Kevorkian and Kafka-esque all its own"

Die.

I don't give a shit what you thought about it. No one does give half a shit. Let the people watch the movie, without you telling them in a 2,000 word treatise exactly what will happen.

Movie reviews should be one sentence: watch/watch now/save your money.

But I want to watch NBA recaps on NBA.com. But for every recap you are forced to sit through 3 trailers. I WANT TO WATCH THE GODDAMN BASKETBALL RECAPS, NOT THE MOTHERFUCKING TRAILERS!

I go to watch some movie, say, Parker, and now I have to watch about 23091 trailers of upcoming movies. Movies I wanted to watch, but now I won't have to or need to, because I ALREADY FUCKING SAW IT IN A 2 MIN. RECAP. BUT I ONLY WANTED TO WATCH PARKER IN PEACE GODDAMN.

Trailers suck. They should show one scene and that's it. But they don't because consumers don't pay attention to detail and merely see the most reactive and explosive trailers

The funniest thing is movies still set things up like there was no trailer leading into them.

Anyway, I got rid of cable a few years ago so it brought a whole new dimension to watching movies. I go into them know really having no clue beyond the basic premise as to what's going to happen, it's pretty cool.

fuuuuuuuuuuuuck

Clicking "sit here" by accident instead of "find this player", and having to sit back in the seat I ALWAYS FUCKING SIT IN before resuming my angry search and note taking.

Writing a long quickreply at the bottom of the FTR thread, and clicking "reply to thread" because you want to reply to the thread instead of clicking "post quick reply". Then watching in horror as your 560 word strat post with deep insight into the psyche of poker players disappears in roughly 0.35 seconds.

Stacking off 200bb deep on river with what I thought was a straight flush vs a full house, only to discover that I only had a flush. Multitabling PLO not such a good idea.

And of course I can't add a credit card. And paypal or whatever also not accepted.

And I do want that HTC One. Fuck.

So I head over to Amazon. I have literally bought thousands of dollars worth of stuff on there. I may have some luck right?

That's it. Fuck Android. Reluctantly, I'm getting the iPhone piece of shit after all, since at least that one I can load gift cards and buy shit with a fake US address.

I have to crack something I want to buy legally, because they will literally not sell to me. Hilarious. Fucking marketing geniuses. I wonder how much they get paid for making such great decisions to increase their paying customer base.

I'm preeeeetty sure this happened to me once. I was like 18 and I thought I was just being a whiny little cunt (even though I never said anything about it), so I never spoke up. Then, the next time I went, I didn't feel a thing, and my cheek was all numb afterwards and all that standard stuff, and I was like, "Oh yeah, this is what it's like; I guess I wasn't just being a wimp before."

Doesn't your browser back button bring it back?

When people try to use basic grammar/punctuation and can't get it right. For example, what,s and i'm, if you can't use it then don't use it!

what's*

Hmm, I get the feeling you didn't read my post properly.

Did you intentionally make punctuation errors for ironic effect?

Usually things preceded by "for example" are examples. Although the comma action directly following "for example" was, I assume, unintentional irony

How about using contractions in the written word - how are we feeling about that?

I hate the written word

I too prefer the medium of dance

There was this old Asian lady at the gym this morning that kept coughing and snorting, obviously wrestling with allergies and a scratchy throat buy for 30 minutes, every minute, UGHCK, snort, UGHCK, snort... if I wasn't a repressed white male and she an elder trying to better herself, I would have started some shit!

We have a shih zhu that we got as a rescue and there are times I want to punt him over the fucking fence for barking at passers by. I'm really not sure how we ended up with him, some favor for a friend that turned into us keeping him, but he's a really cool little guy when he's not being a massive fucking asshole.

I share a twin with a dachshund. I am fairly certain they are the worst breed in the world with barking.

webhosts deleting shit

also since I'm tilted anyway, the fact that bullshit like this is somehow kosher:

Racist thugs trying to start a fucking war by burning down mosques is pretty fucking tilting.

Hardhats. Goddamn mother fucking piece of shit fucking hardhats.

anything and everything, all i need is my laptop and music (maybe) otherwise i prefer to tilt myself in peace

That was so poetic.

servers who want to show off by trying to remember large orders by memory.

If you can handle it, great. If you screw up half the order because you were too cool to write things down, don't expect much of a tip.

I think if it's your job and you do it long enough, that you can develop mnemonic tricks to remember orders if you practice for it. But it looks more professional to write them down imo.

and shouldn't really take you any time at all. develop good shorthand before memory tricks imo

morons and trolls on kijiji/craigslist

Seeing replies in threads that are 4 years old. It is like surely, enough threads have been created on a forum that it does not have to keep appearing...

I want to agree.... it's just that in my personal experience, servers who don't write things down are at least 10 times as likely to screw up the order compared to those who do.

pissing the bed when i'm drunk. that tilts me. i'm not old enough to get away with it yet

Variance in Mariokart.

+1 to hardhats. There's such a narrow scope of protection given by them (banging your head, having something pretty small fall on your head - anything else? lol NOPE) that they're basically just a bit of corporate willy waving to show that the employer is responsible.

And you don't even get to piss the bed after

I know I'm bringing poker to the commune, but it tilts me when people reply to hand histories lamenting the fact that we're OOP and talking about how much easier the hand would be if we were in position. It's a great way to cover your ass ("I might not know what to do in this situation, but I do, however, know that this position business is the bees knees in poker), but it adds zero value whatsoever.

People are never like, "Man, I wish we had the nuts here instead of a marginal hand. It would be so much easier to play this hand if we had the nuts. If we had the nuts, we could continue, now that we have this hand, eeeehhhhh, I'm not sure it's a lot closer. Good luck figuring this hand out; post a hand where you have the nuts and I'll be all over it!" Yet that is exactly what people do all the time with position, and it's not helpful.

So many people get killed or mangled due to accidents that slow drivers don't really tilt me beyond mild annoyance anymore. Reckless drivers piss me off much more.

People who say "well isn't this nice" in a non-sarcastic way. Typically mums at some kind of kids social event. Diagf!

some sober person hanging around when everyone else is drunk.

heh, true

People who don't spellcheck before putting something through the laminator

Fun things to put through the laminator ...
(before you break it).

workmates possessions,
sandwiches,
...

Bible study groups in coffee shops. Especially when there is clearly one person who is "shepherding" (read: brainwashing) the ignorant.

those white oval bumper stickers with 2-3 letters in them. they're worse than the fucking stick figure families imo.

People (namely my gf) putting things back in the cupboard that are empty. Why??? Either leave it out so we know we need to get more or just put it the fricking bin.

plus 1. My gf does this. Also, not putting the toilet paper on the wall thing and putting dvds in the wrong case, squeezing the toothpaste from the middle...

...yeah my gf tilts me

I tell my gf upfront to not do such things when I see her do it. She says I'm a bit of a control freak, but she takes attention to what I say so it's less tilting for me.

Burn the heretic!

Mine leaves DVDs and CDs naked lying around collecting dust for ages. Makes me a bit sad but I dunno if I can consider it tilt.

Mine is a fucking nightmare for CDs. In the car, there are naked CDs just lying on the floor, sitting in the door pocket thingy, sitting on the seats. Some are in cases, often the wrong one. Lots are scratched. Drives me insane.

It's a shame her care free attitude toward life in general is one of her greatest qualities. Guess you have to take the rough with the smooth.

That's why I don't have CD's. My ex was the same. The minute I figured out how to put music on a phone or MP3 player I never bought a CD again.
