I just started sneezing randomly, and now I can't stop.

People that can't/refuse to admit when they're in the wrong.

Usually women. Sometimes also men with womenly attributes.

I hate when people say that something "sucks" just because they don't like it. I have a buddy who is the WORST about this. Can we not acknowledge a dislike for something without criticizing it? Just because you don't care for a TV show, a band, or a type of food doesn't mean it "sucks".

When I call a play in NBA 2K and the player just takes the shortest path to his spot, instead of following the play and using the picks. Cmon man, your route is drawn on the court for you!

Speaking of 2k, the entire online community of NBA 2k. My god I hate 3 point cheesers, especially because I'm too bad to defend it. Takes all the fun out of MyTeam.

This girl on FB has posted literally every day for at least the last week about finally "seeing her soldier" (boyfriend) after he's been away for a while.

We get it, you're dating a soldier and you're proud of him. Enough, already.

Why does that bother you?

If that were my girlfriend, I'd tell her to shut the hell up.

That BS is annoying.

I'll add in another thing. Chicks that wear shirts that say "Hardest job in the (Corps)(Army)(etc.)" because they think being a "military wife" is so tough. Yeah, there's a bit of emotional stress... but don't act like sitting at home wondering why Real Housewives didn't TiVo is tough. Those or bumper stickers that are like "His boots. Her flip-flops. Perfect Match." Something like that. Ugh those make me want to gouge my eyes out.

Gotta disagree with you. Being a military wife is one of the hardest jobs. You have no idea until you have been through it.

It really isn't. At all. Gonna have to agree to disagree with you on that.

Yep. And slightly different..

Individuals who continually make horrendous decisions with their lives yet express belief that there is some man behind the curtain who has arranged the resulting challenges as a way for that individual to overcome adversity and ultimately succeed in life.

Nope. Sorry. There is no wizardry to it. Think before you act. Life doesn't just throw you a ****ing bone. String together a few good decisions for a change and you will likely be amazed at the amount of control you do possess over the outcomes.

Eh, I'd say you are probably wrong on this, at least in some circumstances. Depending on kids and the husband's job, you think it would actually be easy to take care of the family without your husband, and then potentially one day, find out your husband ain't alive any more? I'd say that it is pretty ****ing rough. Silly military girlfriends? You are right, that isn't that hard. But if you have a family, whole 'nother ball game.

If you think that's tough imagine being a single mother. Being a military wife is not the hardest job, nowhere near it. Is it ideal? No. But there are plenty of situations out there much "harder".

Can happen in any job. I'm just saying, in everything I've witnessed... Military wives have it made for the most part.

Then again, what do I know. I still consider there to be multiple different militaries, from personal experiences.

One post about it is fine. But every day? That's just begging for attention.

"Look at me! My boyfriend is in the Army!!!!"
