Tell me what annoys you about the world?
 

My list could be endless! but that would be pointless having read prevoius threads the media can be very annoying and the person thats gets me rageing is John Simpson the worlds correspondent for bbc news i remember him from the last arab war in the early nineties.

With his arrogant public schoolboy manner he has a way of delievering the news that he is personally helping win the war with deluded ego and his bullet proof jacket i laugh at his antics!.He even brings out biographys for what he is doing behind enemy lines not risking jack shit i pray that in tripolio a sniper may take the old fart out now that would be something to rejoice about.

Also i bought a old vhs tape of barbra streisand a very talanted singer no dout she was doing a concert around 1986 she was conserned about the nuclear fallout in russia and said that the wind dont care if your black white rich or poor this i can take as a good point she had not sung for a number of years she was charging £5000 a ticket in the shot of the audience non other then saddam hussein with his wife no dout they arrived by private jet .

This made me laugh as we know what saddam was trying to go nuclear and nearly did.He makes my blood boil and the arab world why are they so jealous and angry im sick to death about seeing them rioting and causing trouble they want a democratic goverment then demand it and stop installing dictator leaders like gaddify and hussien.Its pure crazy and i feel that a third world war will come but when i dont know but i bet the middle east will start it down to religion and a holy war.

If i had my way religion would be abolished end off then the world could resolve so much conflict also i would a have world goverment then that would end the third world poverty also i would remove the debts these countries have.

Also certain celibrities such as kerry katona. jordon,chris evans.christine bleakly she is greedy smug enough said about her and joey barton would be send to siberia for hard back breaking slave labour.

Also all girly magazines would be removed anything to do with disney would be deleted and any to americanised movies.

Also what i cant understand how is adam sandler a movie star hell he not funny well i you want share you pet hates.

nothing annoys me about the world, whats the point in being annoyed?

I do agree about adam sandler not being funny tho and I suppose if I was forced (at gunpoint :2guns:) to watch one of his films all the way thro I would be mildy displeased

just wanted to use the :2guns: smiley really

edit: I should say that I used to sometimes get annoyed about the most trivial of things. I have absolutely no idea what happened (if anything) to change this as it didn't happen overnight. Don't really feel the need to know

The way we're standardising everything (products/buildings/mindsets...everything) and thereby ripping the creativity and soul out of everything we do.

The way things like intelligence and wit are marginalised by fear.

Simon. Fucking. Cowell.

I could go on but will resist!

PS

What's with all negativity?

Your exactly as big as what you love and as small as what you let annoy you.

I appreciate what you are saying and the spiritual/developmental perspective you are inferring, but do you not think there is room for identifying problems in the world and hoping to change them for the better? Then again, I can't change them so why do I bother with the wasted energy lol?

I suppose what I'm trying to say is that are there not dangers to too much passivity in that problems are allowed to run amuck, the whole "good men doing nothing" aspect?

PS

I get frustrated at the lack of common sense demonstrated daily by most of society. Generally I assume everyone else actual takes a second to decide whether what they're doing is a good or bad idea first like I do, apparently they don't.

That or they're just stupid.

You can still question stuff without getting annoyed and you don't need to be un-satisfied to ask questions and make changes

Oh ye we all have desires to understand stuff but it doesn't have to come from annoyance

I don't see annoyance as the polar opposite of satisfaction

The obvious analogy is China. China's already had a damn good go at wiping out Taoism, possibly the most elegant and natural spiritual system in history. It wouldn't surprise me if Tibetan Buddhism was to follow. So you have people's dedicated to similar philosophies of non resistance, natural law, compassion, peace...who can be scrubbed out of existence by the stroke of a military planner's hand. This is the trouble I have with being too relaxed about all things, most things yes, but not all. On the one hand it's very seductive and peaceful to live in that philosophical space, I have a spiritual side that yearns for this, on the other hand it can be dangerous. Negative emotion is not always bad, usually but not always. It's there for a reason, it's supposed to be a catalyst for action. Trouble is we tend to get hooked into it, I'm with you in so far as it's something to be managed mindfully.

PS

True, but there are things you can control and things you can't. Do sweat the shit you can't change don't even have it in your life if you can help it.

Shouldn't we all be progressing or should I say evolving into people who have the ability to change the world into a better place?

I was going for cheese but ghey will suffice

thins that piss me off:

1: people that call people ignorant like it's an insult even though it's just a lack of knowledge. I don't know how space rockets work but that doesn't make me a cunt.

2: People who condescend stupid people. being stupid is like being disabled.

2: People that think being stupid is cool.

4: People that are stupid but don't realise they are stupid.

5: People who marry jordan

6: People that refer to fit people as "fitness freaks". jealous?

7: The blind leading the blind.

8: people who complain about traffic wardens after parking in the most ridiculous place.

can't think of anything else

Best answer ever!

If I was to get really stuffy, I would complain that I feel as though there is too much marketing towards idiots around, but I'm pretty sure my arguments would crumble due to lack of structure/hypocrisy in a short space of time with a solid opponent.

This.

Pretty much 90% of the general population is dumb IMO.

Apathy, ignorance and greed are what annoy me. It's fine on the scale of, 'I'm a girl and I don't care about good music, I want to listen to the Saturdays and marry a rich footballer', for example. But what about, 'I'm George Bush and I don't give two fucks about black people in New Orleans, or, 'I'm a muslim extremist and my single-mindedness has caused the deaths of 3,000 innocent New Yorkers. Or how about, 'I'm the head-of-state of (any African dictatorship) and my greed is causing my own people to starve.

Apathy, ignorance and greed...that's why I'm so against burying your head in the sand and living in your own little bubble!

u can spend ur whole life carrying the weight of other peoples problems on your shoulders...

then one day... you either learn to let them go, or they take you with them.

do you know what annoys me about the world.

nothin. its not my problem. all this stuff u talk about is insignificant.

we are tiny dots in the fabric of existence, people getting upset about shit that doesnt matter.

humans and our self importance. maybe thats what i hate

RE my example - starvation, repression, dictatorship, living in your own shit and piss with no clean water to drink, getting raped by militants and having your limbs cut off....all insignificant stuff that doesn't matter...

Like I said in response to the OP's question - apathy and ignorance.

Oi! What you got against the PUA industry huh.......

i understand it, i know its going on, im not ignorant to the fact shit like that happens..

just why let it get me down.

ur worry isnt gonna change a thing. knowing about it, or making huge gestures about how its important to care does not mean everyone should share your view.

there are not really any right or wrongs, just ways to act to get what you want.

ist x + y

not Your View = The tight outcome. ur narrow minded mate... and the fact that u will now come back sayin IM NARROW MINDED, & WRONG

ive never once said ur wrong, ur right in alot of what u say. just isnt how i wanna live..

but as u get older, u will change... todays worries are gonna be tomorrows memories. i dont want my memories filled with dismay.

second to that. think about everything in school u used to argue was RIGHT, and knowin u U WOULD ARGUE.

i was EXACTLY the same as u, dont think coz i ignore grammar i wernt.

i wasnt allowed to be in any top sets in school coz

"you are a disruption" yet i was left to do all higher exams (only one in second tier classes doing so) without learning most of the stuff i needed, was a problem child and did no coursework & needed to ace the exams to pass... pissed them... bright kids are usually know all'

ur no exception

ur points when u wer 15 WER 100% accurate...

and now, ur completely different.. i know they are

u ever thought u may be wrong about sum stuff?? u have stuff u need to learn

but

u live & learn

"the greatest wisdom seams childish"

just for the record I've learnt a lot of stuff from people who I believe to be stupid.

second pretending your stupid is a trick often employed by con men on unsuspecting "smart people"

Why do you think you can't change things?

If everyone thought this, we'd all be scewed.

If I wanted to change things in Libya, I could always gather a few hundred or thousand people, buy some guns and rocket launchers and get a one way ticket :P

I don't, I was temporarily thinking out loud the opposite position whilst forming an opinion, as you will see in subsequent comments.

PS

the sayin is,

it takes a wise man to play the fool

It's ironic that you keep telling me I will learn and that you used to be like me. I am NOTHING like you - don't flatter yourself.

And there are things you can do to help situations - give money, volunteer etc. If everyone did it, it would make a HUGE difference, but I imagine that you don't trouble yourself with such trivialities.

"there are not really any right or wrongs, just ways to act to get what you want." - One of your biggest derps yet. Murder of innocent people isn't wrong? Rape isn't wrong? Even by your standards mate, that's pretty fucking stupid.

bla bla generic anti-military tripe from someone who obviously doesn't know mich about the topic whatsoever.

I'm actually thinking of the Royal Marines, not the army.

In a war situation, there's always going to be some casualties/fatalities who were innocent. But the armed forces do a very good job overall in my opinion, and of course, they screen people out who have a 'gung ho', shoot-at-anything kind of mindset.

I'm considering joining up to help people, and it's also a fucking cool lifestyle.

But would you be helping people though?

Can you pick and choose where you are deployed: no. You'll be an instrument of policy. An expensively trained and skilled instrument of policy. They're not going to have you hugging Panda's in a white UN jeep, they're going to have you on the ground helping influence a ruckus in some war torn shit hole, so they can manipulate the geopolitics of the region. Policy is not benign. Look at some of the suspicions around 911, look at some of the suspicions around Al Qaeda, look at the lack of WMD, look at how Gaddafi suddenly went from friend to foe, look how 10% world trade goes through Egypt (Suez). There is a pattern, and it's called: power and money.

I'm not being judgemental or having a go, I'm just saying think about it before you come back with your leg blown off, full of resentment about how they lied to you about what you were doing.

i worked for numerous charities, for childrens lukemia... and KIND for abused children. only to find the boss was pocketing the money!!




i meant right an wrong ways to live your life... which of the two of us rape!! or kill innocent people???

lets rephrase for those who try and clutch at any straw to seem RIGHT!!

within moral boundaries. there are no right & wrong ways to live... its subjective to what you want from life.

sorry if it was difficult to understand.

haha i tried to join the RAF when i was younger

i duno if you heard but i used to work with one of the uk largest charities aswell...

and i always thought i was right!! sound similar

I was going join the RAF as a gunner.. but I just couldn't motivate myself to do the fitness, I don't think I was ready for it. Plus, I wouldn't wana join the UK forces, with all the spending cuts and stuff..

are the royal marines recruiting trolls now?

oh well, individuality is over rated anyway

anyone who thinks you can win a war without killing innocents is evading reality.

this happens in war sometimes it's unavoidable

get fucked off!

ta. I wouldn't expect anyone to believe me from one short sentence.

Most of the stuff in the OP is so trivial that being annoyed by it is... well, just so fucking pointless.

One of the things that used to annoy me was when someone would try to blame their own inadequacies on someone else. I'm sure we've all seen this happen in work or whatever. Now I just laugh at them.

Some of the more serious probems in the world. Being annoyed is not going to make an ounce of difference so why let oneself be annoyed?

I know so many people who get annoyed by such trivia that it seems as if they are almost looking for things to be annoyed about. That is not a place I want to be.

lol minutes maybe

but why would you want to intentionally annoy someone? I thought you were cooler than that

I know I was supporting your claim. that comment was meant for madfertit

yeah its cool K, I'm more than happy to take advice from anyone. I did say right from the start that I'm here to learn.

Right now at this moment, I'm not annoyed by anything. Maybe I have misunderstood the 'being in the moment' thing, and I'm not being flippant or sarcastic here cos I know I can be sometimes.

I can imagine that there could be times in the future when I could get annoyed. e.g. if a relative or close friend was ill and needed a specific medication but they were denied it, I'm sure that would annoy me, but right now in the moment there is nothing annoying me

word!!

wikipedia research derp use long words to add credibility derp derp

I don't think you really know what you're on about. Let me guess, you believe everything that Michael Moore and Reddit tell you?

derp. Exactly the same as above. There's an obvious difference between 'murder' and then the accidental killing of innocent people in a war situation, that war itself being started with the intention of a freeing a population and saving countless lives. You should show more respect to the armed forces mate, I've met some of them, and they have more balls and dedication than anyone on here - get more women too! ;)

Lol don't tell me you failed? 25 press ups and 5 on the bleep test? Different league the RM mate.

You fail to address his points here and instead divert using a personal attack. Either address the points or concede them. Don't divert, it won't work here.

You make the assumption here that combatants are black and white, good and bad, right and wrong. What do you do when you're ordered to take out an enemy position defended by 10 year old children? Are they the enemy and bad people or simply innocents that have been manipulated or coerced into the situation?

That war itself wasn't started with the intention of freeing anyone at all, it was started with the "stated" intent of removing him from power due to the near imminent danger of wmds. The stated motivations were 100% non altruistic.

Compare to our current operations in Libya, which ARE about defence of innocent population. Note the extremely different approach, the absolute decisions to not cause ANY civilian casualties because the entire reasoning for being there is about defence of the innocent.

You're being very naive.

tl;dr - i rarely bother with your posts as i always feel that i'm being sold to in some way - no i wont purchase any training thanks

i cba typing more - I'll just disagree happily with kowalski et al

off to the pub for pints and our next step towards a glorious treble - fans of other teams except United, u mad? ye u mad
