On the other hand, they can be annoying as hell.

To be fair, sometimes a devil's advocate can bring some valuable points to a discussion.

Definitely if its some sort of halfway intelligent discussion. But I'm talking about when its just not needed. Like argument for the sake of argument, and doing it all the time.

Any variation of "turn up" or "turn down".

Mainly "turnt up" and "turn down for what?"

I was just being an *******. I can't stand when people play devil's advocate.

Is it 2004 where we still have text limits on phones? My wife texts me novels sometimes and it's just one long *** text.

I feel like some phones auto switch those long *** texts to MMS instead of SMS, but there are plenty that still do SMS and get broken up.

The music industry.

Artists making music simply for Twitter trends and Youtube buzz. Saw a video by Billy Ray Cyrus for Achy Breaking Heart Part 2. A rap video with women twerking. Grown *** man competing against his daughter. Disgusting.

On the topic of groups...

I hate it when they "even out" the groups. My girlfriend is in grad school and has a 4.0 GPA and is tearing up a difficult field. She puts in so much work most people wouldn't and she it is why she gets such great grades.

Well guess what...they have incorporated a bunch of group work into the grade and guess what? They put the students who struggle with my girlfriend. They are lazy and don't do anything so she has to pick up the slack for them. When they do try they incorrectly do the tasks and she has to basically do their work for them.

The university does it to push through these students who likely wouldn't graduate if it wasn't for my girlfriend. It's such BS for them to push this agenda. Oh...and my girlfriend was blatantly discriminated against in missing out for a leadership role in the program. They actually were honest and told her why she didn't get the role. I have more respect for the program president for telling her the truth.

OMG, there's so much I want to say to agree with this, but the ToS would slay me. Dammit.

Before I shut down a computer I'm always like "Is there anything else I need to do?" And the answer 90% of the time is no. And probably half of those times,like 2-3 mins after I shut it down,I remember something I was gonna do!

People don't talk like that in order to save time, they do it because on Twitter there is a character limit of 140 and on cell phone text, the character limit is 160.

Nah man I swear people purposefully misspell words just to be annoying or cute. Its dumb.


On a similar note, Emojis. I dont know why these things got so popular. I hate them. Specifically when women overkill with them.

The two types of Valentine's people.

1) The "I treat my girl like a princess, let me spend 5 minutes talking to you about all the things I'm doing for her today" guy

and

2) The "I'm a Valentine's contrarian, let me spend 5 minutes talking to you about how stupid Valentine's day is" guy

I'm indifferent to it despite knowing it is a pure capitalism holiday.

Its nice being with somebody that cares about the holiday as little as I do, though.
