What about the British spelling of words... Colour ect ect?

Lol man, 'colour' is the only way to spell the word.

Americans overuse the letter 'z'.

I guess if you're going to rip on people for using the wrong 'their' then you should maybe learn the difference between "your" and "you're".

haha got me on that one. My bad. That was a slip up was typing super fast cuz I had to leave. but I've been put in my place.

I hate lame arse bouncers that don't let you in clubs because they don't approve of your choice of jumper, or shoes. Or make you take off your hat when it's clearly a really cool hat.

Actually I just hate bouncers

about 3 or 4 weeks ago some bouncer threatened to "put me on my ass" when I wasn't even talking to him or threatening him or anything, and wasn't even very drunk, so I yelled at him for like 5 minutes about how he couldn't lay a finger on me. He shut up. wanker.

When people call shotgun. I know it's a game but I think it's so rude that it makes me upset. I think I'm the only person in the world who thinks that.

I, and several of my friends, call sniper instead of shotgun. Everyone knows that a sniper will win in most scenarios compared to the shotgun, lol.

But I'd have to agree, I've never heard of anyone thinking that the "shotgun" game is, stupid or rude, lol.

Last night someone called it on me just to prove his prowess over car entering and still let me have shotgun. Silly!

Sometimes being hungry is annoying when you don't have the energy to make food.

Ooh! my mom just called to me that lamburgers are cooked, yay!

I think all of those kind of games are stupid. That and calling "fives" on a seat. Can't we all move on past these childish games? How about "hey, does anyone mind if i sit in the front passenger seat?" or "I'll be right back, no one take my seat while i'm gone, okay?"

Also, I hate that i never get to sit "shotgun" because i don't think to call it. I think if i were a master-shotgun-caller then i might have a different opinion on it...

There are a great many thing on this earth that I dislike too. Life isn't all puppies and candy canes. Keep in mind I've been living in the woods all summer, so many of my pet peeves reflect that. Here's an incomplete list of things that really butter my toast. There are a few things on here that I know will ruffle some feathers, but I am who I am. Anyway:

Insect repellant
RVs
cheap chainsaws
The chicken scratch pickup
inappropriate/excessive use of ORVs
litter
borrowing my knife and returning it dirty
hotdogs and bologna
female vocalists (very few exceptions)
cities that don't recycle
The Subaru Baja
most country music
air conditioning
styrofoam

When people type "could of" instead of "could have" or "could've".

That's when you call window so you don't have to sit in the middle of the back seat

Really low shower heads annoy me. I'm 6'1, which is not exceptionally tall, but when I take a shower at home I have to squat down about six inches to get under the shower head and wash my hair. That sucks

. It's a good leg work out I guess, but that's little consolation.

I also really dislike coming home moderately late at night wanting nothing more than to go to bed so I can wake up rested for work the next morning only to circle the blocks of my neighborhood for half an hour looking for a spot to park and then parking seven blocks away from my building and walking home. Unless I'm home and parked by 10 pm, this tends to happen. It's acceptable situation when you're going out somewhere, but it really sucks when you're just trying to come home and go to sleep. Ach... city life.

games like shotgun are really childish. only thing you can do about that is a sprint to the passenger seat

When people say 'itch' when they really mean 'scratch'.

In edmonton we extend the game such that if someone calls "shotgun!" another person can then respond "...challenge!". Both the shotgunner and challengee must then stop where they are, drop their pants, and race to the car. First one to touch the passenger door handle gets shotgun.

We had a really good run with Nick Landes one time at the montana jam. Moments after explaining the game to Nick for the first time, I called shotgun from about 300ft away from Byrin's car. We all dropped trou and Nick just took off, absolutely destroying us with his speed. I think he actually has the ability to run faster with his pants around his ankles.
