Here's a new one: buying a loaf of bread only to discover that it's got one huge air bubble through its entire length, rendering it basically useless for sandwiches.
If I had wanted bread with a big hole in the middle I'd have bought a bagel!

Don'tcha just hate it when You try searching for something on google, yahoo, ect, and You find a bunch of other stuff that also has the same name as the thing Your searching for but has nothing to do with it? confused? well here's an example, when I searched for the Manga Carta(The charter of English political and civil liberties granted by King John at Runnymede in June 1215) on google images, I got a butt load of other images from this Korean game thats also named "Magna Carta". And when I searched for Mike Tyson on DA, all I could find was Tyson from the Japanimation "Bayblade". |

Lame cartoons, all examples: 1) A major fight, good vs evil, will the main character die? Or prevail? Answer: He lives. Or the show would be cancled. OR! He dies. And gets wished back or something 2)Person 1: There seem to be no clues in this house. Person 2: Yes, I guess not, {Pulls book, or opens bust to see a switch, or it automatically opens a door} Person 1: Nice job! Like that isn't in every freak'n cartoon. 3)Person 1: Oh god. I just got a sword through me, and somehow I don't seem to bleed, and I'm not gonna die of blood loss! 4)"Find out next time" More like "Watch our show more" 5)In a fight, they seem to be able to dodge everything. And the good guy always seems to have more stamina, and be stronger, even though the enemy is a big buff dude. 6) Somehow, they seem to be able to hit huge, buff guys out in one hit, when they are scrawny. I hate shows that do stuff like that. hate.... |

Well like almost 80%(that is a guestimate) of cartoons(American and to a lesser extent, Japanese.... but not Russian, their cartoons are cool) are like that, kinda a shame that there aren't enough animators that can think out side of the box.

Peeve: The kind of people who hate you one day, and then the next day literally stalk you and act like they're your best buddy. We have one of those in our school. Always jumping into conversations and annoying everyone. Once, someone insulted her, and she went "Oooooooh!" to HERSELF. And here is a small sample of a conversation with her: Her (while breathing down my neck while I draw a picture): Hey, can you draw me a picture? Me: No. Her: Can you draw me making fun of these two boys? Me: I said no. Her (hands me a notebook): Here, draw it on this page. Me: I said no; didn't you hear me? Her: Great, I'll be back for it tomorrow. (walks away, leaving me blinking bewilderedly) Yeah, there you go. Every school has at least one. |

My pet peeves about shows Part two! Person one: "Let's jump to conclusions about a dilemma, and then figure out were wrong and we screw up our own lives!" Person two: "Let's!" In a card game show: Main Char.: Hmm. It seems I drew the right card, like that doesn't happen every turn. Other person: Crap! It seems I always draw the wrong card. Go figure? Main Char: I WON THE CARD FIGHT! Like you weren't expecting that.    400 POSTS!

Okay, I got a couple. Peeve: Commercials for CDs that NEVER END. You're just watching them, and just when you think it's over, they keep on talking about it. Peeve: When my parents start the dishwasher when one rack is full, and the other one has like, 5 dishes in it. You can put stuff in there, too! Peeve: The fact that people keep on referencing this thread with threads like it, but don't post in here anymore.

CLASS: (General, "He is an idiot!" conversations") GEORGIA: Why is it the dad's fault? JOSH: Everyone knows that the dad is the boss of the family! CLASS: (IDIOT! SEXIST! BLAUGH!) JOSH: Even go read the bible, then! JD: (Attempting to pull a Sui, which isn't hard with this guy) You can't say that something is moraly right or wrong based on what it says in the bible...Besides, the bible was written a long time ago, people had slaves back then... JOSH: The bible, is true, and if you don't belive it, you're going...*points down*. JD: Where, underground? JOSH: No, to...hell ... JD: Why is hell underground, now? JOSH: BECAUSE IT SAYS SO IN THE BIBLE! Ugh... ANOTHER, I say! Very, very normal conversation... JOSH: Well, Jews own the media, and jews are the most rich people in the world... JD: WHAT! JOSH: It's true! JD: You anti semitistic *SWEAR* JOSH: Well, it's a compliment! JD: Being Jewish, I took incredible offence to that... JOSH: I'm not racist! I even am Jewish!

Occasional JD wrote: JD: I thought you belived strongly in the bible... JOSH: I do, Jewish is a race! To be fair, he's half right. While Judaism is a religion, Jews are also an ethnic group. Wikipedia wrote: The term Jew is not exclusive to active adherents to the faith. Those with Jewish parentage or more remote Jewish ancestry may be considered Jewish by other Jews or the non-Jewish societies they live in, even if they themselves do not consider themselves Jewish. In other words, you can be a Jew by ethnicity but practice another religion. But yeah, otherwise the guy sounds like a jerk. Douglas wrote: Pet Peeve: Anime

I don't care for most anime, but clearly you've totally missed out on entirely any and all good anime. Hint: The stuff they show on Cartoon Network, or any cable channel for that matter, is not good. Hint #2: One word: Ghibli. If anything, Miyazaki draws his female characters kind of boyish, and you won't find so much as a hint of pr0n in any of his work. Oh, and they win Oscars. |

Yeah, I admit some anime is probably good, quality stuff. But I guess I've become jaded by all the crap I see everywhere else... I did go and look up Ghibli just now, and it actually doesn't look too bad... I'm just not into the whole dragon/fantasy stuff... |

Douglas wrote: Pet Peeve: Anime
--insert good points here-- Heh, sure, LOTS of anime sucks beyond all mortal comprehension, but a ton of it is excellent, too. Anime is not another name for cartoons, you know, it's a genre of storytelling. There's going to be good stuff and there's going to be bad stuff depending on staff that makes it. And I felt you should know that most anime is NOT hentai. Most anime is aimed at children or young adults, only a small percentage of the genre is adult. The problem, of course, is defining the line that marks what is 'adult' and what isn't. Japan has a different set of standards than the US. Naruto can get away with blood, gore and murder in Japan and is still labelled as a children's television program. The reason it's edited for United States release? They would like it to be for children here, as well. But if 4Kids dared to keep Naruto or One Piece entirely unedited, parents would be up in arms. And honestly, I would rather have fanboys and girls mad at me on the internet rather than parents who can boycott my television show and toys, too, wouldn't you? I've started to rant and go ENTIRELY off-topic, I apologize. I used to be a bit of a hardcore anime fan, though nowadays the fanbase annoys the heck out of me. It's too elitist, and the pairings are weird even for MY tastes (one word: Elricest. Characters can't even be SIBLINGS and avoid rabid yaoi fangirls). I'm going to go ahead and stuff to American cartoons (even if getting the same flames about H*R slash over and over is annoying. You can only call me so many names before it gets old). But yes ... Ghibli rocks. Everything Ghibli has ever made rocks. Watch Grave of the Fireflies and I DARE YOU not to cry. *sniffles* All this talking and ranting has made me wanna pick up the ol' anime selection again. Maybe I'll watch Maho Shoujo Pretty Sammy TV tonight or something. Pixy Misa > all else. Excel Saga would be fun, too. |

Anime and manga go hand in hand. But I'm guessing he's referring to anime itself, since most porn-ish manga isn't brought to states aside from internet translations and a few very rare actual translations (same goes for dating simulation games... um ... avoid them, if you can). |

They are similar, but they have those tiny differences. But yeah, I guess he knew what he meant. anime. but then he'd probably hate both. And a new peeve is this. Changing words into links and then failing horribly. Like my above post. I don't get what im doing wrong. |
