those instantly dismissive people, the ones that won't give anything or anyone a chance? For instance, I told my brother I was listening to Tool and he instantly told me how I was a hardcore dick because I was listening to them.:rolleyes:

So, what type of people pet peeves do you have?

I do that with my brother, just because our rivalry is quite intense. Mostly I'll do that with some people, but my generalization will usually be justified: I see too many "scene" and "hardcore" people that are just assholes.

We have a number of people on this forum who are absolutely convinced that all rap is terrible and if you post links to good rap they refuse to listen to it. It's a bit annoying, but then I remember that these are the Intertubes.

Pfft! Nobody cares.

Muffins anyone?

Part of the social skills that people learn is how to pretend you give a shit. It seems to be a skill that is rapidly becoming extinct. How do people ever expect to get anything done if they can't convince the people who can help them that they really care about other people's opinions and problems?

*sigh*

Lol, I completely agree, faking like you give a shit is a very important social skill. That is why you only use it with people that really maters, that can give you something or you need them.

Until that point, he might have experienced nothing but "Tool" fans who were hardcore dicks.

then again, it could just be simple sibling love showing. :p

My question to you would be why you give a damn. Who cares what others think? You arent forcing your brother to listen and like Tool are you? So why is his opinion so important? Just do your thing, enjoy your life and remember that opinions are not facts, and everyone is entitled to them.

Honestly I don't like Tool...they suck...so perhaps Tool themselves are a pet peeve of mine...

There are people who favor an all-or-nothing approach to everything in life. When they see an enemy, there is no compromise... only complete annihilation. But those people aren't as hard to deal with as the people who praise you in public but secretly labor towards your destruction.

With that said, I guess my own pet peeve is with ultra-sneaky, passive-aggressive people.

I know how you feel, I don't like people who judge me based on the music I listen to. I also hate old people who dis iPods for no reason other than that they exist.

That applies to everything. I hate old people who hate on any technology simply because it wasn't around when they were young, they don't understand it, or as you said, simply because it exists.

Racists, homophobes or sexists.
And people who act like their problems are unique and far more important than anyone elses.

One of my pet peeves are people that argue with mundane, conversational, and innocent questings. I have a friend that does that. Also people that argue with history and math teachers.

And I don't like people who think they have found the absolute truth about everything...if we were to meet, the consequences would be devastating.

It's like matter and antimatter.

people who seem to take it as their job to insult or belittle you to placate their own unimportance.

Because everyone of your beliefs that differs from mine, being found to be flawed would leave you a quivering wreck?

I agree, insofar as my opinion on tool is concerned
why would a band name themselves after an insult?

I think it's quite useful that people can go around displaying what is usually their main characteristic on their T-shirts.

Or, what if mine were actually correct? You would be utterly mentally destroyed as your feeble worldview collapses around you.
