Little Things That Bug Me
There are a lot of little things that bother me. Most of them have nothing what so ever to do with Sailormoon or anime in general. I thought I should list them to see if anyone else wonders about these universal questions as well.
1. How can they show what it's like to watch DVD on a VHS tape?
They show you all these action movies and how much better they are, but how can you get the full effect on a VHS tape?
2. How do they show what digital cable looks like when you have regular cable?
This pretty much ties in with the whole DVD question.
3. Why a salesperson asks you if you need help when it's obvious they don't want to help you.
This really annoys me. The ask you if you want help while they're almost sprinting away from you.
4. When people ask you the same question over and over that you've already answered about a topic you don't feel like talking about and they too know the answer.
Did I lose you? Say you want to go to a dance or something by yourself, and the same person(s) are asking you over and over "Why don't you go with so and so?" ERRRGGG!!! If one more person asks me that....
5. Pages who have TeXt LiKe ThIs BeCaUsE tHeY tHiNk It LoOkS nEaT.
That's just annoying. For one it takes forever to type like that and forever to read as well. You have to think more than you need to, and that's never good.
6. People who send chain letters, porno mail, advertisements, surveys, etc.
Those are annoying. They fill up you mailbox and you have to go through the trouble of deleting them. Also, some ISPs don't have the option to delete a lot of mail all at once. You have to do it one at a time (~cough cough~ AOL ~cough~).
7. People who mix the dub in with the original Sailormoon.
Rini then went to the future with Usagi and the rest o fthe Scouts to save her mother, Neo-Queen Serenity from the Negamoon; Diamond, Emerald, Saffir, and Wiseman. Please, that sounds awful. Stick to one version.
8. Trendyness.
I swear, this is one of the things that bugs me the most. The SMC is a textbook example of trendyness. On another note, the clothes people wear that are "trendy". Most of the are hideous! Have you seen the clothes these people have come up with for us to wear? Sparkly, see-through crap that no sane person would wear outside of Halloween. It's disgusting!
9. Carolina Fans. (haha! I'm gonna get an angry letter from katie...)
Duke is just superior in every way. I shouldn't have to say anymore.
10. Really religious people.
Ok Ok! Let me clarify what I mean. People who tell me "Dinosaurs didn't exist because they aren't in the Bible!" are the people I'm talking about. (Really, someone said this...) Then, the same person goes right back to talking about video games. Wait! If I'm not mistaken, video games weren't in the Bible... I guess they don't exist either...
11. Paranoid people.
A.K.A everybody in my city. OH MY GOD!!! There's a SNOWFLAKE!!! QUICKLY! GET THE BREAD AND MILK BEFORE WE'RE SNOWED IN!! I swear... it's insane the things people do here when they see a snowflake.
12. People who fight over stupid stuff.
Ok, there was a war over how many fingers one should cross oneself. I shouldn't have to say anymore.
13. Chick Flics
Three words: They Usually Suck. My guy friends find this wonderful when we have an even vote on what movie to rent. Notting Hill or Jack Frost (the cheap horror one that's rated R, not the new one)? Hmmm... Jack Frost all the way!
14. People who write a fanfic that's too hard to read because of gramatical and mechanical errors.
Ok, I have a lot of respect for fanfic writers, but some of you need to get an editor. I think you guys know what I'm talking about.
15. People who think they're superior because they have a car.
~cough cough~ Amanda ~cough~ Really, I'm happy you got your license, but don't tell someone to get the hell out of their car because you told them to slow down when they were going 40 in a parking lot...
16. Homework.
Who isn't annoyed by homework. I mean, come on, you do enough work at school, give us break!
17. School shootings, bombings, etc.
This is more of a scary thing than an annoying thing. My school was delayed many times because of bomb threats. The things people do to one another...
18. Adults trying to use "teenage slang" in TV shows, at all, etc.
It's almost like the SM dub! "Wicked cool!" "That guy was way whigged out." No sane person actually says these phrases on a regular basis.
19. The whole Sailor "Scout" thing.
Where they came up with this I'll never know. Whenever I hear it, I just get flashbacks from the movie version of "To Kill a Mockingbird". "Scooooooouuuuuuuttttt! Get over here!" ~shudders~
20. Mixxine
Ooooh... I could go on forever and a day about Mixxine. I very much object to be called a "Mixxer". I figured they probably change some of the manga, but to change Takeuchi-san's notes, that's just unforgivable. I highly doubt Naoko would ever say "Hi all u Mixxers!" Mixx has completely ruined Sailormoon :***( Why couldn't Darkhorse or Viz or someone have translated the manga?!
*- now because of Mixxine, Cloverway, and Irwin, the Outer Senshi all have at least 3 different names. Michiru-Nerissa-Michelle, Haruka-Alex Haruka-Corinne-Amara, Setsuna-Celia
