this is a serious question. i spend my life in a near-constant state of frustration and disbelief at how myopic, ill-informed, selfish, inconsiderate and all-round bloody stupid people are. now i know many of you think i'm a miserable bastard anyway and i'm fully aware of ilx's "let's all hold hands and sing kum by yah round the campfire" tendency, but plenty of you spend a lot of time unloading on groups you don't like (the poor, the uneducated etc), so, this is the thread where you stop pretending to be nice and let it all out.

You really are a complete and utter cunt, aren't you Dave?

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 27 May 2004 13:51 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't really mean that. Shit, I'm not very good at this, am I?

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 27 May 2004 13:51 (twenty-two years ago)

that's a start

― Dave Stelfox (Dave Stelfox), Thursday, 27 May 2004 13:52 (twenty-two years ago)

this is a serious answer. there's nothing wrong with people. it's one of my favourite show tunes. barbra streisand's is the definitive version but the tymes did a good soul cover.

― Marcello Carlin, Thursday, 27 May 2004 13:52 (twenty-two years ago)

you just need to work at it

― Dave Stelfox (Dave Stelfox), Thursday, 27 May 2004 13:52 (twenty-two years ago)

Every person I have dealt with recently has ignored my requests. Banks, agents etc etc. I have seriously phoned about 10 ppl in the last 3 weeks to arrange stuff or amend details & not one of them has managed to do what I ask. The world is full of incompetents & unfortunately it is making me think why the fupp do I bother with anything.

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Thursday, 27 May 2004 13:52 (twenty-two years ago)

and i'm fully aware of ilx's "let's all hold hands and sing kum by yah round the campfire" tendency

bwahahahaaaaa, what?

anyway i know what you mean Dave but i sense that your annoyance has once again been provoked by something written on this board and i don't think you should let it get to you like that when it can just be taken as words on a screen (actions annoy more).

― stevem (blueski), Thursday, 27 May 2004 13:53 (twenty-two years ago)

They're too intolerant of other people's failings. God, how I hate people like that.

what is wrong with groovin'?
(i love that song tho i can never write or pronounce the name of the woman who sings it - i also laugh when she sings 'what is wrong with wailin?' cos i hear it as 'whalin')

They shouldn't punch me in the nose for absolutely no reason at all when I am on vacation. Fuck that.

― TOMBOT, Thursday, 27 May 2004 13:55 (twenty-two years ago)

Awareness

Awareness that you are not the only person in the room and that the views and moods and requirements of the others may differ from yours for whatever reason, the only person who needs to get somewhere, the only person who might feel a certain way about a certain someone, the only person 'this' has happened to...

well it's mainly the way the bnp thread descended into another "hey let's laugh at proles" fiasco (the unloading), yet still most people were having a go at calum for being prejudiced (the kum by yah tendency). still, this could just be fun anyway.

Why does it matter if other people are myopic, ill-informed, selfish, inconsiderate and all-round bloody stupid?

What if you are myopic, ill-informed, selfish, inconsiderate and all-round bloody stupid? (and people are, so unless you are from some superevolved space race, you are too)

― A Nairn (moretap), Thursday, 27 May 2004 14:06 (twenty-two years ago)

― Mr Mime (Andrew Thames), Thursday, 27 May 2004 14:08 (twenty-two years ago)

The incompetence thing has been a really problem for me lately. Before I moved, I arranged to have my phone number changed. (I was told I had too, in order to have voice-mail; which probably wasn't even true, since the person I talked to screwed up on every other point.) I was told I could not get a DSL connection in my new apartment, so I signed up for (more expensive, and so far, less satisfactory) cable internet. A few days ago, I received a package from Verizon (my phone company): "Thank you for choosing Verizon DSL as your. . ." etc. I called Verizon to let them know that I had not ordered DSL service, but also that when I originally inquired about it, I had been told it was unavailable in my new location. (I haven't mentioned that my phone service was shut off a month or two before it was scheduled to be, thanks to a mistake the person I talked with must have made while keying in the shut-off date.)

Meanwhile, the cable TV I decided to get (since I was already paying for cable internet) has not been working. I haven't found the time yet to call the cable company about that.

Despite the screw-ups with Verizon, I am thinking of switching to them for DSL, to save money. (If I make them my long-distance carrier, I will save additional money. Goodbye Working Assets. I hardly ever make long-distance calls anyway.)

does your mind's eye have 20-20?

― A Nairn (moretap), Thursday, 27 May 2004 14:08 (twenty-two years ago)

Dave this thread is sort of ill advised. You've been very sanctimonious since returning here. I realise you were pissed off when you left but still.

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 27 May 2004 14:08 (twenty-two years ago)

Dave, I don't suppose for a moment you thought about sympathising with Rumpy before launching into her for abhorring the people who are making her life a misery BECAUSE OF THE WORDS SHE USED???

Maybe that's what's wrong with people.

You're right about pedantry, though.

― Markelby (Mark C), Thursday, 27 May 2004 14:10 (twenty-two years ago)

i think this thread is okay (so far). there have been too many stupid threads lately. i often revel in stupid posts, but not stupid threads, that's the line.

― stevem (blueski), Thursday, 27 May 2004 14:11 (twenty-two years ago)

Actually this fucks me off all the time, Dave. But HOPEFULLY you know a few good people, and besides even tho I barely post there's clearly a lot of pretty likeable people on ILX, right? They exist! More might be nice (in real life, I mean), but then you'd have to like PHONE them and that sort of shit, that'd get annoying.

― Mr Mime (Andrew Thames), Thursday, 27 May 2004 14:11 (twenty-two years ago)

Stupid posts kinda rule

Huntingdon Labs protesters

What is wrong with "people" that I deal with at the moment is that they don't deliver stuff when they say they are going to, or they send something not quite like the part that they ordered so the object I was going to repair remains unrepaired, and the person who I am supposed to be repairing it for gets pissed off with me, or the big japanese cycle part manufacturer manages to fuck up its stock levels or wtfe, and I wind up getting quoted 190 day lead times on commonplace items wtf.

What's wrong with people is they need to work and sleep. If they didn't need to, they would have the chance to run a search on every subject on ILX prior to posting to check what ppl had posted about it previously.

you're a pathetic waste of oxygen. a public school tory pretending to be a liberal. an overgrown bullying prefect who thinks he can tell anybody what to do because you can't in real life. you have no power, no energy, no beauty, no love, no life, no hope. as a human being you are DEAD, DEAD, DEAD. and you haven't even got the guts to say these things out loud, face to face, in an FAP because you know full well what you'd get back.

so go and enjoy the cossetted, unearned life that awaits you. in the meantime i'll fuck off whenever i want, so i suggest that we just go back to ignoring/hating each other. deal?

If they wanted to commandeer a disused board for The Church, I'd have been perfectly happy for it to have been IDME. Sigh.

I have given this question a lot of thought. My conclusion is: people are born with intractable design flaws that require endless, clumsy patches and workarounds. Much like MS Windows(tm).

we should spend more time teaching people to be people, and less time moulding them into socio-economic units. you didn't think i was gonna go there but i did.

what is wrong with that guy is that he eats meat, basically. he's just not as impersonal about it as most.

― "It's far from 'loi' you were reared, boy" (darraghmac), Wednesday, 11 August 2010 14:49 (fifteen years ago)

as a hypocritical non-vegetarian, the wildly contingent morality of Western eating (Western values!!) is something I guess I basically accept. So therefore, wtf this guy.

― Merdeyeux, Wednesday, 11 August 2010 14:54 (fifteen years ago)

what is wrong is that guy apparently marinades his meat alive, with fur on. i've more of a problem with him as a chef than anything else.

Yeah, it just doesn't make any sort of culinary sense? I was bewildered by this.

like his only sense of how to marinade something comes from looney tunes cartoons
