Here's a great rant about things I don't like!
I don't like a lot of things. Most of them are just obnoxious. Like, sucker/blow-pop manufacturers who give you paper sticks instead of plastic. WHAT THE CRAP?! How am I supposed to fully enjoy my root beer Dum-Dum when I keep getting shreds of paper that have been marinating in my own saliva for upwards of half an hour stuck in my mouth?! Pay the extra half-a-cent and buy the fricken plastic sticks! Fricken unconstitutional!
You know what else I don't like? Advertising people who purposefully mispell things, thinking that looking like a moron is all the rage in todays society. Well, they might have something on that last part, but when every other store I pass has all the S's replaced with Z's, and all the C's and K's switched out.. It just drives me freakin NUTS! Let's see... Would I rather get my hair cut at Ray's Hair Parlor or SuperKutz? Better question - which one would I rather burn down?
You know what else I don't like? People who play games with straight-up LAME names! Names have varying degrees of lameness. I'll start with the least lame. This would be people who play like friggen FPS games with medieval-sounding names. Like, "Oh noez! I've been gunned down by 'Edgar Puntington!!!'", or "No! Black Knight stole our flag!" Sorry bout that, Daemon, but I'm with cows. You shouldn't play anything but lame RPGs with a name like Black Knight... The second tier of horrible names are actual names. I've triumphed countless times over guys named "Jeff" or "Nick", and it really doesn't give me any reward. I have never seen a guy with an in-game name like "Joe" be any good. So, basically, using your real name in a game is like screaming out that you're a complete noob with a death wish.
The third tier of awful names gets its own paragraph. This final tier is reserved for painfully overused generic names that were probably thought up by 8 year olds... 12 years ago... I'm sorry, but if you ever play ANYTHING with the name "Killer".... You just deserve to die. In real life. Names like "Killer" or "Sniper" just really, really, REALLY should be ban-worthy. Or names that used to be mildly humorous, like "Your Mom", which lost their wit about the time said 8-year old hit puberty and decided that games were for losers. Yeah. Hah, hah. Whenever I kill you, it says that I killed my mom. That's freaking HILARIOUS! Unfortunately, all the messages of you killing your mother kinda run together since there are always so many of them. I mean, no player with any skill would choose a name like this. Kids named "Your Mom" go down almost as easily as all the "Killer"s and "Sniper"s...
You know what else I don't like? Black people. Just kidding! ;D
You know what else I don't like? When black people say that white people can't say the N-word, even though black people say it all the time! Okay, what's more racist... Me saying a word that was used in a derogatory manner hundreds of years ago, or me not being able to say certain words because of the color of my skin?
On the subject of racism, you know what else makes me angry? Minority scholarships. They're not really even minority scholarships. They're "everybody but white people" scholarships. If I went to FAMU, where over 90% of students enrolled are black, could I get a minority scholarship? Heck no. Would I be a minority? Heck yes. It's straight up ignorant for colleges to give people scholarships for having a certain color of skin. And it's stupid that society tolerates - even applauds - it! Think about it this way. If a smart kid in a small town gets a minority scholarship to go to Harvard or Yale or some hoss-cat school, everyone would be thrilled! It'd be the talk of the town. But, if a smart kid in a small town got a scholarship to Yale or Harvard on account of him being white, not only would everyone in the community hate him and his family, the story would almost definitely go national. Anyone noticing the glaring stupidity here?
Making too much sense. I need to flame more.
You know what else I don't like? Celery. Why in the fricken heck would someone want to eat celery? It has no nutritional value, and tastes like rubbing alchohol and athlete's-foot cream! It's not good! If you think it is, you've been brainwashed, or have had to convince yourself that it's good!
You know what else I don't like? People ordering fancy steaks. Okay.. Why pay $25 for a 12 oz. steak, when you can pay $10 anywhere else for a 1-lb burger?! Burgers rule over steaks! They're bigger, cheaper, always cooked to perfection, and even come with two complementary dinner rolls, a side salad with veggies, and sauces!
You know what else I don't like? Being up at 3:00 am! Who the heck made me do that?! Jerks...
Not afraid to speak his mind,

The gayest game names I hate are the ones who actually use the names in the real game..like a star wars mod for any game ill see people using names like "Luke Skywalker" or "Han Solo" I get annoyed cause I usually end up owning them. I mean come on! Where is the ORIGINALITY!? Its like "Dont make me get Mr. Hamill come here and pwn you!"
