4. people saying Zander instead of Xander You mean when people misspell it, right? Because the X in Xander sounds like a Z.

indecisiveness.
'what shall we watch tonight'? - 'I dont mind'
'what do you want for dinner?' - 'I dont mind'
'When do you wanna go into town?' - 'Up to you'
NO! Make a goddamn decision now and again.
sorry, I have a housemate who is incredibly indecisive...and as a bossy person it was great for me at first, now two years later not so much...lol.

Haha sucks to be you around here, then. In fact, in this fandom. Namebolding happens everywhere.

HAHA! Yes, namebolding is a pet peeve. It's so unnecessary.

HAHA! Yes, namebolding is a pet peeve. It's so unnecessary. Except for when it actually helps to catch the attention of the person who you're talking to. A lot of the time, making it stand out in a bunch of posts where you're talking to multiple people - *shrugs* feels kinda silly explaining why it's useful lol.

hahahaha...
personally:
i hate it when people call Buffy a girlie show. i go off on a 25 minute rant about how it's a gender neutral show...
people with annoying laughs.
Stupidity in general
if i can hear you chewing and swallowing when i'm in a different room, i get pissy. i honestly find those noises disgusting...
when people stereotype... it sounds like a cliche, but we are all different and (in my mind) there is no such thing as a stereotype.
people who use sarcasm very facetiously... e.x. "What would you do if i just died?" "I would have a party"... i find that very distasteful
people who have no idea what they are talking about and act like they do.
for some reason, half of my teachers think i'm a wiccan. the other half think i'm a radical athiest... why i do not know. and it bothers me because i am neither of those things.
and finally: people my age (15) who are legitimately alcoholics and go to rehab. there are two girls in my grade who have... i think it's a ridiculous how you can be 6 years under the legal age, and have a severe problem with substances.
there... there is my list of things that annoy be under any circumstance.

Unfortunately, there is no age restriction to addiction. Alcoholic minors - have often started before they were teens - starting with sips of booze left lying around after adult parties to sneak drinking - parents can be totally oblivious thinking that they needn't worry about their kids being into drugs, sex, depression, etc until they are teens - losts of problems happen a lot earlier. Have some sympathy and patience with your classmates - they wouldn't be in rehab if the problem wasn't there. Sorry to be preachy, but they need support not disdain.

Must refrain from using facetious sarcasm around snizapman hahahahaha... The Night Lord, that actually made me laugh pretty hard... you get karma for it. YAY!!!! and finally: people my age (15) who are legitimately alcoholics and go to rehab. there are two girls in my grade who have... i think it's a ridiculous how you can be 6 years under the legal age, and have a sever problem with substances. Unfortunately, there is no age restriction to addiction.

Have some sympathy and patience with your classmates - they wouldn't be in rehab if the problem wasn't there. Sorry to be preachy, but they need support not disdain. that's exactly what i'm saying, but the only thing that i find ridiculous is that they started... i empathize with the fact that they have a problem, but they wouldn't have a problem if they hadn't started. EDIT: Sage, preachiness is okay in these circumstances... major problems in america like these merit preachiness.

I get bothered when people suddenly take up interest just because they like someone.

seconded.
i hate people who INSULT BTVS! when they're all like "oh, it's just some show about stupid vampires" or "it's only successful becasue SMG is hot"
and more than anything in the whole word, i hate TWILIGHT! (not the Buffy S8 villain, the stupid piece of crap sexist book series.)
