Yet you like telltale games?
When people throw cats and chickens at you.
When people excuse verbal bullying and harassment as just a 'joke'.
When people provide no… more evidence on a topic you're discussing and only provide assumptions as evidence.
When someone asks you to do something and you do it and when you ask them to do something and they say they'll do it but don't.
When people get mad at you just for saying "Hi".
When people don't know you but they pretend like you're their best friend(awkwardness).
When people slap you with a rubber chicken and alternatively a raw fish.
When people won't leave you alone even when you ask politely.
When people steal your favourite games and pretend that they never had it.
When people joke about serious topics that you feel strongly about.

I appreciate your position but the 'he could speak english better than you could speak whatever-language' is very flawed.
We can't speak whatever-language....and we don't try to. Lots of people try to speak english when they can't, and hence I find annoyance understandable.
It should always be constructive criticism, but it seems that whenever someone's grammar is corrected you're automatically a grammar nazi.
I hate grammar nazis, they fucking annoy the brains out of my head.
I would like to see grammar nazis try speaking my language, so I could laugh their fucking faces in if even a one fucking word goes wrong.
I personally don't see any logical basis for that, but to each their own I suppose. To me it's akin to saying that keeping "do not" as two separate words is an incorrect thing to do just because there are more people that simply say "don't". Popular usage shouldn't dictate what is actually correct or not. Either something is acceptable or it isn't.
I don't think that in linguistics, unless two different spellings are believed by the exact same number of people, two divergent spellings can be equally correct, as 'correctness' is based on how many people use said spelling.
My addictions, having a addictive personality doesn't help. I would like to live a few days and feel like i don't need, like a rusty nail scratching at the back of my brain; constantly reminding me of the desire to indulge . The anxiety when i know i need to go back and resupply, i see it getting lower and lower, like a taillight fading from the distance.

I highly disagree with where you're trying to take that point, but I really don't want to veer too far off course here.
After further reading I have found that it is only necessary to include hyphens following prefixes when the prefix itself adds ambiguity to the word, or when same vowels match up side by side because of the prefix. It isn't necessary to place a hyphen after the prefix in the word "semicolon", so I suppose there probably shouldn't be one. Personally I have always found it to look better with a hyphen, but if there is no reason to have one, I'll avoid using it in the future.

Overall, this world tends to turn my stomach every now and then. And I don't really like America with the lack of gun control and violent it can get there. I mean, who wants to live somewhere that if you say one little thing... POW!, you're dead!
People who think they're superior because they watch and read obscure tv shows/movies/literature, or because they like to drink tea. Basically hipsters. Hipsters are annoying as hell.
Strictly things or people that annoy you? Ok, I can do that. I'll exclude the things and people I hate.
Social Justice Warriors. All they… more ever do is scream and cry about some "tragedy" on their blog, and attack/hate on people they deem "problematic". They don't actually contribute positively to their cause, in fact they don't even have a cause. They just want an excuse to complain, but make it look like they're doing something worth while. Lazy and selfish is what they are.
Over-sensitive people who get offended way too easily. Any opinion that isn't theirs offends them, all jokes are offensive if they don't think it's funny, even facts offend some of them. They always expect an apology if you unknowingly offend them, even though that's not enough most of the time, and everybody needs to be politically correct so nobody gets their feelings hurt. Just..wtf. Grow a thicker skin and get over it.
Race Baiters. Fuck you Al Sharpton.

Gun Control would actually put our lives even more at risk imo. It would disarm our law abiding citizens, and the only people that have firearms would be the police. If someone breaks into your home threatening to kill you, and it takes 5+ minutes for the police to arrive, you can't afford to wait that long. Those few minutes could be a difference between life and death. Places that openly advertise they're a "no gun zone" have been the places that shooters have targeted as of late. And just because we ban guns, doesn't mean they'll disappear off the streets. Heroin and Cocaine are illegal, but criminals still get a hold of those drugs and sell them. Since when have criminals followed the law? What would happen if strict Gun Control was implemented is our law abiding citizens being left defenseless to the criminals.
Social Justice Warriors.
I feel the same way.
You think you're a fucking plant?
That's actually pretty funny. XD

True but what about the other possible occurrences? Sometimes it's not a criminal and is just a citizen with a gun in their hands. For example; there are school shootings that are sometimes caused by fellow students, even the last person they would suspect. Or say a kid stole their parent's gun and used it on someone they don't like. And sometimes when a marriage goes really bad, one of them ends up killing the other with the weapon they own. Common criminals aren't the only problem, it's also the regular citizens that could possibly end up using gun against another in a chaotic matter. It's honestly a lose-lose scenario.

The schools that kids usually end up shooting up are Gun Free zones, so it takes a while for the police to be alerted of the shooting, to arrive, and to defuse the situation. If the teachers were trained and armed, I think that several deaths and injuries could be prevented. Not only because the kid will hesitate before making such a decision, but because if the kid still ended up going through with it, a teacher can incapacitate them before too many people are hurt. Kids who steal guns from their parents, that's on the parents hands. One extremely important rule that goes along with owning a gun is making sure that the guns are 100% inaccessible to kids, and to always have the keys to the gun safe on your person and/or very well hidden. A kid taking the gun is the parent's fault, not every other gun owning citizen's. As for a marriage going sour..well that's an isolated incident, and I don't think it's quite fair to punish every sane individual simply because there are people out there who snap and actually want to kill their wife/husband.

Since they are given permission by the original creator(s) (or they get the rights) I don't consider it Fan Fiction.

If that were true then we'd all be speaking the same language we spoke hundreds of thousands of years ago.
I couldn't stop laughing about how the eye was off and the language...It just matches perfectly. XD
