Everyone has pet peeves, I'm no different. People.......well, lets just say that I am the kind of person that, doesn't easily allow someone to be, what I would consider, a friend, much less an "online friend". This is reserved for the very few people that have done something to impress me, help me (above and beyond what a normal person would do), or just spent alot of time around me and managed not to irk me in some way.
I had someone send me a PM about a month ago asking me why I was a dick to people. I sat and thought about it for a while and in the end I came to the conclusion that I wasn't necessarily a "dick", I just happen to have an extreme lack of respect for people who are not in my circle of friends. To get in the circle of friends you have to earn my respect, by logic, anyone who isn't in my circle of friends has not earned my respect, so therefore, is not entitled to my own. It's a lack of respect. But then again, I understand that the world does not cater to my every need, just as I do not cater to it's every need. So what could be the answer if it be not respect?
Dumbasses. I hate stupid people.
Then I thought about what qualified someone to be considered a "dumbass" in my book. So I did a search for posts that I had made in the past, in particular the posts and threads where I was flaming or bashing someone. This is a list that I complied during my journey for knowledge.
5 Ways To Be A Dumbass
5. Karma
I'll admit that I have enjoyed to some degree the karma system on this forum. It brings method to the mayhem and it shows a side of people that you normally wouldn't see. Especially the dumbass side. If you are the kind of idiot that sends me a PM that says anything to the effect of "u are a fuckin idiot, u no that?", then you are a fucking dumbass. Yes, it breaks my heart every time someone sends me a +1 for being mad at me, I mean, it really makes me want to stop whatever behavior that warranted the message in the first place.
4. Grammar
Now, I am no grammar nazi, but.....damn. Some of you people are just pushing the envelope of illiteracy. To make matters worse there is a built in spell checker on the site that can correct your horrible spelling, but no, you would rather look like a dumbass. If you are too lazy to capitalize the beginning of a sentence or add a period at the end and not use the spell checker...then you just flat out FAIL. No one ever respected the lazy man.
3. Whiners
Whiners ruined BF2. I hate you. People I hate are tossed in with the dumbass group by default in my book.
2. Whiners whining about whiners
This one just drives me up the wall. It's like a virus. Whining about people whining is not helping the situation by any means, in fact, it's only adding to the confusion and flaming initiated by the original whiner and in fact leads to more whining. Then the people who get tired of all the whining try to step in and stop it and, in reality, become whiners themselves. By logic, this makes me a whiner for talking about it, but by my logic it makes you a dumbass for getting me involved. Like I said, a virus, infecting everyone who gets near.
1. People who think they know me
You don't. Don't act like you do. This pisses me off to no end. Just because you may have said something to me here or read something I wrote, or had someone say something to you about me, or played with me on a server, DOES NOT mean that you "know" me. People who send me PM's or messages over XFire saying "Hey man, whats up?" or people on game servers saying "HEY CUGAR IT ME!!!", you fucking fail at life, please go jump off a goddamn bridge. Do I look like the fucking IRS to you? I don't know who you are and I am not going to spend the time and effort to find out when you approach me like that.
I had some dumbass call me over Skype the other day and start talking like we were fishin buddies from way back and I had no fucking clue who it was. I asked him how he got my Skype ID and he said that he had gotten it from "so and so, who got it from that one dude who got it from whats his face". My shit stinks the same as everyone else's, if not worse. I do not have superpowers. Why in the FUCK would you go through so much trouble to talk to me? I wouldn't do the same to you. Respect motherfuckers, learn it. People who do this are dumbasses. The people who know me, know who they are. If you have any question about the subject then you do not know me, leave me the hell alone.
Those are my 5 anyways. Throw them out there if you have any and try not to be a dumbass.
