Having read Zaia's comment....

I really don't like fat people as far as attracvtiveness, but I think that they are just as great as anyone els ein personality. I could never see myself going out with an oevrweight guy, no, but it is all a matter of preference.

People who complain loudly about how bad their life is. Been there, done that, kept my fat mouth shut.

Oh! Reading SAMAS' comment....

Indians who think half-blood or lower isn't "Indian enough." I am 1/4 and have had someone say this to me. I also consider myself Inidan. I mean, it's not [/i]my[/i] choice who my parents were....

Also, people that are unwilling to step into anyone else's shoes givenm any situation or hypothetical circumstance.

People like Pavel who butcher a language because they are too fucking stoned or drunk toi be coherent, and thusly have no need to even be in a forum, much less POST in it, and then call other people traitors to their country just because they took a small amoutn of attitude against them.

Or, break those all down into pieces.

People too stoned......POST in it.

People that call other people traitors for minor attitude.

People that butcher a language in a forum and see no need to tell others that they are foreign. There are a lot of foreign people here, I know, but they have the grace to tell us that they are foreign instead of just letting loose what they have to say.

I'm prejudice against those much less intelignet than me. extremely stupid people, extremely loud pompus or ignorant people. against people who live on the street and elderly people in general all those people could be done away with if you ask me!!!

Post by **haas mark** » 2002-11-15 07:09pm

May I ask why people on the street should be done away with? (NOT flaming here, its an intelligent question). I have some very good friends out on the street. They can't find a place to live because they have no job, and can't get a job because they have no place to live. Unfortunately, there are a lot of shelters down here that don't give a shit about trying to find people jobs...

People who scorn at me when I'm out riding, because of the lycra wear and helmet.

People who go into college and pass the first year partying and making fun of those who actually are studying. Fortunely, in the second year they are still, well, in the first year, and it's the end of their stupidity.

People who say: well, I didn't go to engineering because I don't really like math, but it's really no more difficult than my arts/literature/etc course. In fact, my course it's harder.

Racists, fundies and morons in general. They should make mankind a favour and volunteer to radiation experiments

Arts...no, not harder than math. Music.....maybe. It depends. Java is harder than the arts though. By a lot. Trust me, this is coming from a musician.

Me. It would be far better to use them to test our new bioweapons.

We all do. I wasn't attacking people for failing classes. What irritates me are the one who think everything's easy, that someone will do their work for them and then actually mock those who do it. And, in the end, obviously fail.

In my first semester at college, due to not knowing the people, I made group with some guys like that. I had to work double because of all the teamworks I had to do alone. And they were quite satisfied about it, too.

Yeah, there are things that I could have done to improve my Chemistry. I shuld have actually gone to the class. I thought I knew what I didn't know. I though that it would be easier than it was. So, I fail the course. I'm also not gonna take Chem any more. I'm moving over to the Astronomy sciences to complete my degree.

And it would pay for me to be more social, but I have a hard time talking to a lot of people.

As long as you have census papers, IMO. OR can trace back oyur family. Either way, that's Indian enough for me.

Oh, I've finally remembered what I'm predjudiced about.

As a human being, I consider myself entitled to three (3) irrational beliefs (all my mortal enemies, rivals, and brooding resenters, take notes

):

1) I simply cannot say the word 'goblin' without laughing or at least smirking. I'm not 100% certain where this came from, but I've had it for five years or so.

2) Lacy women's underwear... 'scares' me, I believe is the best way to describe it. Dunno, it just seems too busy or complicated for my tastes. I'd like to like it, mind you, but I guess I'm stuck with the non-pattern varieties for now.

3) Despite my insistance on being as rational and logical as I can possibly be, I know more than likely I'll pick up a third 9albiet minor0 irrational belief sometime in the future, in which it will either take this one's place, or expant my limit to four (4) irrational beliefs.

There you have it. And dagnabbit, You'll get nothing more from me, you fucking whippersnappers!

Smart-asses who want to turn every argument into a damn semantics debate (ie time travel in such-and-such novel wasn't a deus ex machina because it was man-made, and not literally a 'machine from god', or it wasn't one because a deus ex machina originally and specifically involved a man suspended from a crane, and a time machine does not). I call them 'eight-fingered smart-asses', because they're the kind of people who will correct you when you refer to humans having ten fingers, by smugly declaring us to have "eight fingers and two thumbs! *smug*". This usally stems from their anti-social refusal/inability to recognise the actual meaning of a premise, so it's not really an irrational predjudice.

For some strange reason, I tend not to notice if a person of Middle-Eastern or Asian descent passes by, but I often do if a black person passes by. I think the explanation that most non-white people in Denmark are middle-eastern or asian rather than black.

BTW, in opposition to you, I never had problems with goths, although I find their fashion taste to be quite garish. (probably because I only ever encountered one, but I know her quite well)

BTW#2, I'm often shocked when people don't know of bands which I think everyone who know the slightest about rock should have heard of. (Although I take it of a sign of normality if one of my friends doesn't know of Bal-Sagoth, Finntroll, Skyclad, Sodom, Limbonic Art or any of the underground metal bands which I like)

BTW#3, something that really annoys me are pseudo-headbangers, who listen to a lot of pseudo-metal music and mainstream metal, but never or rarely even bother to explore the more avantgarde bands.

Should've been Black. We go by the One-Drop Rule.

IOW, if you have one drop of Black blood in you, you're Black. It doesn't matter if you're 100 percent or 1/100 percent.

Of course, that means that we must now force-feed Black Music to you. Soul, Funk, and much of early R&B is good, but if someone tries to push Jay-Z on you, feel free to kill them.

That reminds me, from now on, whenever I run into someone who expresses some from of racism (and I mean deep-running 'damn negroes are destroying our confederacy' kind, not someone who points out that the guy on some BET sit-com would've never gotten his office job in real life, speaking ebonics the way he does), I'm simply going to declare my predjudice as being numeric value-specific, as in:
"Yeah, I know what you mean. Anyone darker than R200, G150, B100, and I keep my hands on my wallet. As soon as I lent my lawnmower to my neighbor, I said to myself 'I'll never see it again from that damn R190, G115, B55-er'." I just want to see their expression once the initial confusion wears off.

Thanks. Personsally, I think the best part about it is that the name itself can be used as an indicator for those kind of people. In other words, having been explained the meaning of the term, an eight-fingered smart-ass will then declare it should be 'eight-fingered and two-thumbed smart-asses'. Then you slap them.

Well, fundies but thier character and the knowledge that they are stupid enough to be fundies speaks for itself.
