PP: Not having a Pet Peeves thread.

[Stan]

You sure that isnt just... standard behaviour when playing Dark Souls?

*covers up holes in bedroom wall*

PP: Time. I dont feel like I have any.

[Alex]

I don't know Stan, raging like that for 3 hours doesn't strike me as "normal behaviour".

PP: Now that I'm finally moving into my house for good, one of my roommates wants me to pay all the bills (not including rent) until Christmas. I'm okay with paying a little extra because I'm moving in later than I said I was going to, but there's no way in hell I'm paying ALL of the bills for the next three months. I'd be fucked.

I don't understand true anger at video games. Like, I get frustrated, and maybe I'll squeeze my controller a little tighter than normal, but other than that, I'm pretty zen when it comes to gaming.

Yeah I know, right? I mean I'll get frustrated too, but it's just polygons and pixels, what's to get mad about? I think the worst thing is these people who go online and get mad at everybody else, I mean, I try my best to win, but I'm not going to sacrifice my enjoyment of the game and take it uber serious just so some asshole on my team can win.

PP: Still haven't gotten my OSAP money and now it's dropped a few thousand after I handed in the course change form from 80% course load to 60%. Wat.
PP2: That means I have to use my free day to go in to see what's what, which also means printing shit from my crappy ass printer.
PP3: Still need ma books for ma history class.

I had a computer that did that too. Doesn't it mean that its internal organs need to be cleared of dust?


PP: I sent my ex a handmade Left 4 Dead keychain for his birthday. It was supposed to be a surprise so I looked up his parents' address to send it there since I know he's living in a different city as them, but I don't know where. The white pages has the parents' address wrong. Right street, wrong house number, as I later found out through chatting with my ex. There goes the surprise... >.< *sigh* if it comes right down to it, I may have to make another. Not a big deal, but... damn white pages!

It looks like this:


:B

Again? I already took off a layer of dust from a fan thingy, a fat square of dust. Literally square. And some other gunk clogged in it's gears, but... it's a dirty desert of crap. Guess I need to mine it out again and harvest out the worthless crap from it's cavern.

If it helps, I keep on getting my neighbor's mail and that keychain is pretty nifty. The neighbor must have been pretty happy to get a spiffy keychain from a complete stranger.

Thanks! And it's quite likely they don't play the game, much less, heard of it.

I'd also think that since it's not addressed to them, it's illegal for them to open it. Doesn't mean they won't, of course.

PP: Kilts. Shit's expensive. I decided to buy a kilt set--shirt, kilt, sgian dubh, the works--for Halloween/so I can wear it with the other males in my family. The set I want is $400 and doesn't include some of the stuff I want.

When someone online starts yelling or getting mad, the point of the game that I'm playing temporarily changes to "Make that guy angrier."

I actually did that once on TF2, though not intentionally. There was a guy giving everybody on the team shit because we were losing, all like "WE COULD HAVE HAD THAT ROUND IF OUR FUCKING MEDICS DID THEIR JOB!", that kinda thing, and I keep telling him "Dude chill out were just trying to have a fun, its just a game, stop taking it seriously.", so he starts getting on my ass about "I payed for it so I'm allowed to get mad at it" and stuff, which is all fine, but don't take out your anger on the players, so he keeps raging, I keep telling him to chill, and eventually he just gets fed up from me telling him to do so and leaves. Good times.

PP: Have to have a subscription based email to sign up for NeoGAF forums. Blaw.

Ninja'd.

EDIT: PP: Well... Despite having heard from my friend, I don't think she'll be coming back, or at least not for awhile. It stinks, like, what if she doesn't come back at all? There goes a good friend, and a potentially wonderful girlfriend. I'll find somebody else I'm sure, but this hurts, it'll be hard to find somebody who can top her.

PP:  Sharing an online account for anything with someone.  "Let me choose the password, I'll remember it, if you pick it I won't be able to remember it."  So now neither one of us remember it.  And the password recovery feature is borked.  And the phone in help is automated and keeps referencing us to the borked password recovery "feature".  Pardon me, I'ma go flip a table.
