    I have 2 starters that "piss" me off:

    1. Asinine commercials that beg for money for "troubled animals!" In some countries they eat those cats and dogs to stave off starvation!
    If begging is necessary, do it for the "human animal!"

    2.To see billions of dollars being wasted to build or add onto buildings used to praise a mythical god!
    That money could be better used to improve the lives of hurting human beings!
    Preach myth and superstition in a galvanized iron building or in a field on a nice day!

      People who put up threads about serious issues like freedom, integrity, love - and then comment on each post as though they are the arbiter of such things, as though they have any idea of the answer, in a god-like hectoring manner that betrays their intention as much as it illuminates their own narrow mindedness.

    People that preach kindness and giving-but get to the top, by stepping on others so they can have their preachings heard,

    People that keep getting pregnant and having children, but have no job- no want for a job or to better themselves-just live off of welfare and complain that it is society that is keeping them down or even worse, blaming their children for ruining their lives.

    the salvation army...
    i had to stay there for a while due to my mental disabilities. i was greatful to them. but one month after i signed in they changed their program. they told me i would have to start attending their church sessions and bible classes or be kicked out. i asked them what happened to my freedom of religion?
    they said i gave it up when i signed the paper for their help. so i left and was homeless for a while. to this day i'm still angry at them for taking away the few rights i had.

    I hate it when Hubbers leave Hub Pages. I may not always spend all my time here, I may get a job, or something better. But here, to leave is just like cutting off a limb.

    I am broken enough as it is.

    The thought behind the 'Tit for Tat' way of doing things. If you dont do this for me, then I wont do this or be this or help you in any way. If you do this for me-then I will TRY to help you out at some point in time. I really hate that!
    Why cant anyone just do things to be nice, and not want anything in return for it?
    Why cant we help out-because we want to make life easier/rather than harder for someone?
    Why are there so few people in this world that one can call on for support-and know that if they receive any type of support or help/ it wont come back and bite you on the a** to repay them for that help-when you may not be in a position to pay them back the way that they are requesting???

    Ignorance. Actually its not so much the ignorance but people spouting it off, for example today I was surfing the web and came upon the forums for the movie Avatar and I started reading a thread about why the human military should have won.

    The guy who started the thread complained about how the Na'vi should not have been able to go through the bullet proof glass of military vehicles. The people arguing against him were saying that the arrows could go through bulletproof glass because of the force of gravity aiding them. That argument made me want to bash my head through a wall.

    People who take things too seriously -- like on HubPages. This is just a forum to express one's personal opinions. Yet, it seems swords are drawn at the slightest provocation. This is a good place for learning. But nobody's point of view on here will be changed regardless of how rational the opposing argument.
