Experiences that piss you off just remembering

BemaniAK · 05-28-2008, 05:32 AM

Stories about stuff that's happened to you that still piss you off whenever you remember them.

A while ago, I was playing IIDX 12 happy sky. Some 12 year old kid and his friends come up behind me and one of them says "SEE! ACTIVISION HAS REALLY MADE DJ HERO!"

That would piss me off too.

I really hate it when I watch a movie with my family, and when a character appears, someone always says 'look isn't that the guy from *other film*', or they'll say a line from the other film that said actor has been in.

God that pisses me off so much.

I get pissed off when someone mentions "Sony Reliability" in the same sentence as "PS2 fat."

I had 4 of those fuckers.

One of the first shared classes for my course in Game Design.

Lecturer : Who likes FF8?
*every fucking one raises their hands, save a few*
Lecturer : Wow, that's alot of people. Who doesn't like FF8 then?
Only me and my friend raised our hand. My other friend tried to, but he was surrounded by weeaboos giving him angry stares so he didn't dare to. We got boo'd.

Raged like the fist of the north star.

More than four years ago I was evicted from my own room so that my brother's new family could move in "just until January at the most". It's aggravating enough to write a book about it all in this shoddy patio of a "room".

Don't you know that you're supposed to ABSTAIN from hand-raising situations like that for that reason? :\

If nothing else, if you get caught, you can make up a GOOD reason on the spot...

Anyways, experience that pisses me off just remembering hmm...

...

That'd probably be hitting my damned head on the damned top of the door every time I walked into to the damned camper of the damned Otter Lake place in Illinwah...I'm not big on nature. I seriously hit my head on the top of that door every time and I wasn't that much bigger than 6' (6'2 or so now) but it never failed. Gashed it once. Surprised I didn't lose brain cells with continuous bashings. Maybe I did.

Yea, I've got not much better than that.

Working at Gamestop when you have to deal with customers that don't read the damned return policy at the bottom of the receipt.

Do customers ever try to get in through the back door an hour before opening?

I am sound coordinator at my school. I manage the sound board at the school assemblies and rallies.

During the talent show, I sang Live and Learn from Sonic Adventure 2 with video footage of the game.

I was not managing the sound board at the time, but someone else who was less experienced than I was. He fucked with the volume like no tomorrow. At one point, I found my mic off, and the background music extremely loud, so they couldn't hear what I was singing. What was even worse was I got 5th place...

I hate it so much when people at the mall, theatre, or even at home won't shut the hell up when you are in the middle of a game that you need to concentrate and you end of dying or losing because of the fact, and when you yell at them, they try to sclod you and put the guilt trip on you.

Typically during midnight releases. During the Halo 3 Launch, we heard no less than 20 people try and pull that deadbolted door open.

As long as you don't get in our face about it, I honestly don't care. It's when people get really "I'M GONNA CALL AND COMPLAIN BECAUSE YOU WON'T BEND THE RULES FOR ME" that I get pissed, because it's not our fault.

Case in point: a woman tried to return a 6 month old Used 360 when it got the Red Rings last weekend. She had a 30 day warranty on it. We told her to buy it new so she'd get the 3 years from Microsoft. She didn't. When she brought it in, we told her to call Microsoft to see if it'd been registered yet, but she "didn't want to go to the trouble." And called Corporate to complain. They told her the same thing, but she's apparently telling everyone she knows not to shop at our store.

Bitch.
