Channel changers...
I absoutly hate it when people can't choose one program and stick with it. They just randomly change the channel and I'm like "Hey! I was watching that!"
My dad does it, my boyfriend does it, (although I'm trying to break him of it) and his sister does it! What drives you nuts? |
Haha, I'm one of those. Well not really. I only change it when it's a commericial. The instant a commericial comes on, I'm flipping through other channels to waste time 'till my show it back on haha.
What drives me nuts? Omg.. Hm.. When people type LiKe ThIs oR rly bad n w/0 pr0per words n stuff. Ugh. It took me so long to even type that much :P No grammar and horrid spelling, stuff like that. Really annoys me. Yes, I'm not perfect with it haha. It just bugs me :P |
I can't stand that either. My sister changes the channel when a commercial is on, but watches whatever show until a commercial comes on on that channel. So you never get to watch all of one show. Errrrgh.
Something else that drives me bonkers is when my boyfriend has to talk and turn up his game while I'm trying to understand what a show is saying [two TVs in the same room, one with the PS3 and one with cable], or talk to his teammates. ¬¬ |
Lol. I'm a channel changer. I usually just have lots of things to watch so I have to switch in between channels.
What drives me nuts? Well I absolutely can not stand when people talk way too much. Especially if it's about nothing. That drives me mad! It's like shut up already. Lol. |
Normally I watch TV when there are 2 CSIs that I like on, then I switch between them on commercials...but other than that, I watch only NCIS, and never change the channel when thats on.

Channels.
I find that annoying too. Although I know I've done it myself a few times when I was bored. In general though, I don't turn on the TV unless I know there's a specific thing I'm going to watch. I'm not a fan of flipping through hoping to find something interesting which will probably be half over even if I do find anything. I'm guilty of doing it with the radio though. Mostly in the car. I flip the radio constantly while driving because of commercials coming on or because a song I don't like comes on. I can't stand certain songs and just have to get them off if they come on. But what does annoy me somewhat is when people will start listening to a song, usually on a CD or something, then flip in the middle of it to another song... And not necessarily because they didn't like the song. They'll just listen to a song halfway through and then flip to another one every few minutes. It can get somewhat annoying sometimes depending on the situation.

That... omg... I HATE when people watch 2-3 shows at once... so they're watching a movie, you sit down to watch it with them and suddenly they change the channel to what they were originally watching =.=

THANK YOU...my father is the worst person I know and does this all the time. I could ring his neck every time he does it. Like tonight, I was watching CNN and live coverage on the Health Care Reform Bill. He gets out of the shower, comes in and takes the remote. Just to start flipping channels and commenting on how nothing was on. I wanted to slap him and shake him silly. He is such a jerk.
Thanks for the place to vent my frustrations about it. ^_^ |

Although that live coverage of the health bill doesn't sound very entertaining. ---------- Quote:
What is CoD? |
@Requiem0fEternity: My boyfriend moves his tv into the livingroom to play xbox360 whenever he comes to town to visit. So he'll be playing, watching a show on another tv and talking to me when I'm running around doing stuff. He doesn't know how to hook up the games to the tv in the room, so he just does that. x.x
Anyways, What annoys me is younger girls dressing like they're my age. You shouldn't be allowed to show any skin until you're eighteen, srsly. My sister (nine years old now) wears a ton of make up, and her bikini is so tiny. x.x She doesn't have much to cover anyways, but still. I was sorta fat until I grew into my bust around when I was seventeen, but I would have never dressed like a streetwalker regardless. What happened to cute sun dresses? |
I dunno, most TV programs aren't entertaining/interesting enough to deserve me watching them solely, lol. There's maybe like two shows a week I'll leave on to watch uninterrupted, and one is usually on a chill Saturday night.
|
My mom does that. In fact, she's doing it now.
She'll change the channel when a commercial comes on and then change it back when the commercials come on on THAT channel. Which means I never understand anything that's going on in any of the four shows she's watching. And worse, she does it with soap operas. How do you understand ONE of those, much less five at once? |
See I have amazing timing and can watch my original program until a commercial, swich to something vaguely interesting, then switch back just in time for my show. I'm just that amazing.
|
I try not to do that. I can usually just sit through the commercials. Or go get that snack or some water or something. I don't usually watch TV anyway...so I guess I haven't really built up that kind of habit. XD My stepsister does it a lot and it drives me crazy, 'cause she only does it if I express any interest in the show. It's not like I'm watching over her shoulder while she's typing to her friends. What is there to hide from me in a public channel? It's just ridiculous.
Another thing that bugs me is when people disrespect my car. My dad borrows it a lot and NEVER resets anything. Even though he's not the one that has to drive it everyday, he leaves the seat all the way back 'cause he's taller, doesn't fix the mirrors, doesn't change the station back, etc. Also, I've had a friend consistently change the radio station on me while I'm driving. It drove me crazy. I was like "....I like that song...." and since she didn't, the channel changed. She asked once if she could change it, 'cause she didn't like listening to commercials, which I totally understand. But that yes does NOT mean "Oh, feel free. The radio's practically yours. I don't care." *sigh* |
High pitched noises drive me nuts. And whenever it's a friend making the high pitched noise, whether it be a spoon scraping against a glass plate... they only make it ever louder. It's horrible! Hurts my ears and my whole body just shudders!!!

I wish everyone else had amazing time.

haha I'm like that too :P |
The channel idea doesn't really bother me that much, but I can see how it would bother other people. I do have problems that do bother me though. One of them would be that it really bothers me when people use excessive amount of a certain object that they don't really need to use. You may not understand my wording of this, so I will give you an example! One of them would be like dish soap, when you are washing the dishes and somebody uses like half of the soap container! When they only need like a few drops. GRRRR, still don't understand.. then oh well. Thought I would just rant off about nothing... haha. (:
