What irritates you??
« on: December 17, 2009, 01:52:08 PM »
What is something that just irritates you? Not the big things that get you in a rage instantly, but they small things that when it happens you go into that little mode where you feel both angry and normal at the same time. It feels like anything can set you off at this point, and you just feel weird until either you calm down a bit, or something does set you off.

For me it's doing something twice in the same way, and getting two completely different results. An AHII example would be I take a P-51 to a base we are trying to take. I get some alt so I can deal with the many fighters trying to defend. First sortie I get 5 kills, rtb, and land. I think "That was a good run!", so I do it again. Now nothing has changed at all: Same plane, same alt, same fuel, same plan, same number of friendlies attacking in the same manor, same number of enemies defending in the same manor, but this time I get 1 kill and die.

Most times I die I can tell what I did wrong to die, but in this situation I have no clue what I did wrong. Worked perfect the first time, why would it not work the second?  :furious


So, what irritates you!??

People flying P-51s into a defending horde and expecting to live long enough to land a kill...  :bolt:   :neener:

Does it have to be AH related.  A big one for me is people who race to get through yellow lights (or even red).  It's the worst at left turns, I get peeved when my light is green but I have to wait for more people to keep going through their red left arrow.

Questions!
Why don't you explain to us why? Do you not have a reason? Why don't you have a reason? Just don't think it is necessary? Do you think you are too good for reasons? How many questions can I ask before you get irritated?

A few peeves of mine are when I am sitting next to a couple people, talking to them or what not, then they whisper something to eachother than look at me. Another is when someone IM's or texts me like they want to talk, just to say "what's up?" "nothing" and "cool".

Do you think he will be insanely irritated by this? Or just slightly irritated? If he ever responded, don't you think we'd know the answer? Why don't you respond, too scared? Or are you already irritated?
