Things that tick me off.

I hate racism, it's childish and it hurts people. And I mean racism towards anybody not just one race, it's just disgusting how people prejudge others because of their skin or cultural background. It gets me mad to see it online and even madder in real life.

I also hate it when people can't admit that anime and cartoons are the same thing. Just because anime is different with some of it's content doesn't change the fact that it's just a Japanese cartoon.

That's about it for me I think.

I never understood that (the anime thing). It really irks me that they think there's something so inherently shameful about cartoons that they need to find reasons why anime doesn't fall under that category (cartoons are animation, anime is animated, ANIME = CARTOONS PEOPLE ARGH HATE HATE HATE). It's like saying the Mona Lisa isn't a painting because it's better than a painting. Fantards scare me sometimes.

Oh, I hate that, too! You speak the truth right there.

Same here, except mine's Italian. I've seen and heard some extremely crazy misspellings of it. Just sound it out like you were taught to do as a tiny tot! It's not that hard!

On the subject of anime, many anime fans flip out if you point out anything remotely negative about their cherished animation from the Land of the Rising Fun. Like, for example, how all the characters within a series are often completely identical with the exception of hair and clothes and possibly height, or how when they're surprised they always seem to have to go "OHHHH!!!" or "OWAAHHH!!" with a starburst background instead of just being quietly overwhelmed.

According to our "Beloved" Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anime Anime is "animation originating from Japan." Animation = cartoons = anime, yeah. That answers that, I think. What also ticks me off, is pretty much every aspect of "fanshipping", It P!$$** me off. :/

Well, I do, and if I have the same definition of "fanshipping" as Fosters Home Fan, then I hate it too!

(otherwise, I judge it on a fanship by fanship basis)

My last name is English, so no one has a hard time saying it. However they seem to have a hell of a time spelling it. Often inserting a K where this is none. They also seem to forget the number of O's in my first name. I guess I have to speak more clearly. Though to this day I haven't met anyone with the other spelling of my last or first name.

I hate it when I speak too fast for someone to hear and it's something really long. I think fast talkers may know what I mean. You just keep going on and on and on and the other person can't follow and they ask you to repeat it. Which results in one of two things, you're too lazy to do the full version or you forgot. Man, that really toasts my cheese.
