YES

Yes, we use grunts and gestures to communicate. Here's one especially for you -

Jeffredo,

Hurrgh uggg. Hmph. Urrrgh herrrr. Hugg dur huh. Hmph.

Bronies, Anime fans, and cosplayers. I don't know exactly why I hate them, I had a friend who was an anime/cosplay fan once. Once...

Women who are closet furries and won't admit it. Just put on your cat ears and cat tail and come make love to me. Swear to God, these women. Some of them will even go so far as to claim that I'm the furry.

You say that like it's come up a lot.

Anyway, as for me:

Tourists on the metro during rush hour. Just wait until 10 A.M. to go the national mall or see the monuments! You don't need to be clogging up the turnstiles because you can't figure out how to put your damn farecard into the slot. It does not go in the [censored] top, and it is not a smart trip card, so stop rubbing it over the sensor with the image of a smart trip card on it. Place it in the slot on the front like a normal f'ing person who has the ability to [censored] read. Secondly, no one needs you clogging up 50 [censored] seats because you insist on bringing your 9 soup-brained brats you conceived with nary a contraceptive in sight along with a tour group and your extended family.

I don't see it as rational to be honest. R.I.P. could be taken a myriad of ways. It could mean they hope the person who died is dead in an afterlife in peace, it could mean they hope the person may be laid to rest undisturbed by grave robbers. While the dead have no use for material goods, it's a sign of final respects from the living for the memory of the deceased.

Don't be silly, they're not furries, they are anime kawaii neko desu! ^____________^

It's always:

Woman wears cat/dog/whatever animal tail and ears: Cute and anime
Man wears cat/dog/whatever animal tail and ears: gay furry.

I can bet you that's how about 90% of the internet sees it.

I'd invite you to truly educate yourself before taking everything you read on a message forum as absolute fact.

This thread is called 'irrational hatred' after all.




Mine would be people who are in public 'non-party' areas who yell, scream, or laugh incredibly loud with no regard for the people around them.

I also really hate when people who are trying to get someones attention by blowing the car horn do so over...and over....and over again...and then lean into it for 10-20 seconds. It makes me want to watch where they park so I can go scratch up their paint with my keys.

I hate people watching me when I am playing single player games. I don't care about multiplayer though.

There are many things I dislike, but few truly irrational hatreds. That said, I do have some:

I hate the number that comes between 4 and 6. I hate saying it, writing it, typing it, and even hearing it. I don't even like words that rhyme with it. And I have absolutely no idea why. If that's not irrational, I don't know what is.

I hate it when people mix up their homophones. Just because 'your' sounds like 'you're' doesn't mean that 'your' means 'you are'. Then there's the triple threats: There, Their, & They're as well as To, Too, & Two. Their meanings are not interchangeable. Damn the English language for having too many homophones/homographs.

I hate large crowds. It makes my skin crawl to be around large numbers of people. High School was pure hell because of this, especially between classes.

I'm with you on that one. And I am an American. Fortunately, I'm related to an English teacher.

slow, weaving drivers in big cars
screaming kids (although i dont actually hate kids)
people who say dated graphics = crap game
daytime (i HATE daytime)

i hate a lot of things but i cant be bothered writing a wall of hate


stop as they are about to approach, then kneel down and fiddle with your shoe lace. works like a charm

Bronies and Furries, though I don't think that's irrational, if anything it's easily justified.

I do have an irrational hate of people who chew with their damn mouth open, it's repulsive.

You just justified it right there though.

I guess I don't have any irrational hates then, I have a reason for all of them.

well there you go.

Yes we have the same sort of redneck culture here, i wont point out the states, but one of the states was the only state in Australia to invite the Ku Klux Klan to start a chapter here, and im happy to live sooooo far away from them.

I have nothing but contempt for cursive. Hey, you've learned the language? That's great! Now learn an entirely new alphabet for no reason that means the exact same thing and you'll never use.

And usually can't be read by anyone but the writer.

When I pick up the phone, say "Hello," and the person on the other line says "Hello?" as well. Now, these callers are always those who dialed the wrong number, but for [censored]'s sake, at least tell me who the hell you are, who you're intending to call, or that you dialed the wrong number. Don't "hello" me and waste my time.

And that nobody can read.

EDIT--

Ah, ninja'd on that point!

I think you're all confusing the word "irrational" with "rational," haha.

And some bands come to mind. Like nickelback, or justin bieber.

I really hate... things, and

To be fair there is really no such thing as a truly irrational hatred. There is always a rationale behind it somewhere. Not always a good rationale but there is one.

Like for Nickelback or Justin Bieber their popularity and music could cause that hatred. Or the fans who gush about them all the time too.

I have an irrational hate of being single (never had a girlfriend)...on that note, I tend to hate on most guys that the girls I've had crushes on would date or have a relationship with, too...
Also some might say my hatred of Beyonce, Bieber and Boston Rob from the TV show Survivor might be considered irrational, too...

Tim (aka the Slipperman)

Something unusual that people like and doesn't effect others, how can hating that be anything but irrational?

Oblivion forums made me allergic to the word "immersion", and Skyrim ones only made it worse And it seems Skyrim forums will make me allergic to the term "role-playing", as there it means "pretend your way past lack of content and poor balance and mechanics"

Hasn't role-playing always meant "pretend your way past things the game doesn't do or doesn't do in a way you like? (until you can get a mod)?" I recall a forumer introducing his sibling to oblivion and finding much irritation (or was it another emotion? not amusemant, for sure) at the fact that said sibling saw no point in having their character sleep at night. (the forumer a was role-playing type of some sort)

People that say 'markedly', 'orders of magnitude' or 'nonsensical' every chance they get in a fruitless effort to appear intelligent.
