Open doors. And people that come in without knocking or who knock and come in before you answer.

Just about all of my roommate's friends. (See above.)

People that like to change CDs or songs in the car every six seconds. (You're not a DJ, stop trying to act like one!)

Sports.

And stupid questions.

*really* stupid people
mainly this blonde airhead we have in our RS class, every lesson we have to listen to her obvious statements, which she then attempts to develop to try and sound philisophical and clever, however it never works. Last lesson the other day, she was trying to argue that the world was flat...seriously...I was nearly in tears of frustration trying to explain the concept of "scientific fact"! mad

I know how Jamin feels. My brother's friend just acts like he owns the place. It is SOO annoying. Ugh.
And SPAMmers who, after being warned, saying he's gonna suck up to mods, AIMs me rejoicing that he hasn't SPAMmed all day. Of course, he just HAS to have 3 AIM names....Argh.
People who ask me to get something for them from Japan, especially rare anime things. (don't bother Anime-Loo tipsy ) They just don't have 'em in Japan either!
And people who annoy me and I don't get the message from me that they ARE annoying me.

I think that's it.

People who insist on using 2 instead of to, it's one extra letter -- Jebus! And pretty much anybody in the "newbie" phase of the web, and people who preach about drugs being bad and a lot more.

Chiryu, Aichi-Prefecture. Finding Nagoya (in the same prefecture) should be a lot easier. Nagoya is the 3rd largest city in Japan. I live about an hour's drive from there.

I found Nagoya in the atlas but not the city you mentioned. Are you north from the city? What cities arround you? Surrounding it on the atlas is Okazaki, Incinomiya and some others.

Okazaki is closer to me than Nagoya. To the.....left of it should be another rather large city, and then a small round like city right above that. I'm in that city. It might not be labeled.

And loo, that's correct. And I'm American, my parents are missionaries to the Japanese, so I'm stuck here till I go to college.

If anybody every comes to Japan for the fun of finding rare anime things, they will be VERY dissapointed. Second-hand shops that sell anything anime are quite rare. Second-hand shops are rare for that matter. Unless you spend days looking up stores, you won't find much. And the TV commercials suck. Something I've had to put up with......9 years now. (yes, I've been in Japan for 9 years) I was born in Japan, but both of my parents are American, so I'm of American citizenship.

Topic Change
What IRKS YOU?

People who direct topics totally offcourse with no sign of it going back on track. wink

Actually, I am not going to list the 52,000 things that I am naturally bothered by, just things that really annoy me.

Teachers who try to tell you something you know. Example: These games are from atari. Thats nice, I see the atari logo I know its from atari. One or two of my high school teachers do/did this crap. Especially irks me when they tell me something about a topic I am versed in naturally. Computers, Videogames and Brain Surgery.

Homework. Cant get it done in school? Dont blame us, its your problem.

Computer Beginners (Newbies) who act like they know what they're talking about.

People who use the incorrect term of something technical to make it sound stupid instead of cool. Example: Go to my web site.
Go to my internet.

Sheesh...

Telemarketers, SPAM, junk email and junk faxes.

The smell of gas on your hands after pumping at a self-serve gas station.

People constantly flipping stations with a TV remote control.
