I have a lot of things that tick me off, however since this post is entitled "Pet Peeves," there is only one I will mention here. I hate ignorant opinions. While it does irk me when people don't agree with me, they're entitled to their opinions, so long as they know what they are talking about, use arguments that are relavent to the discussion, and realize that I'm entitled to mine. "Because that's the way it should be," is not a valid arguing point. I also wish that people would remember that opinions are just that, opinions... not truths. (Except for mine... mine are all truths...lol) I often find myself internally shaking my head and sighing when "discussing" topics (usually hot button ones) with people that neither know all the facts nor stick to facts instead of bringing up emotional or philosophical reasoning (unless of cousre, it is a plilosophical discussion). Usually when this happens, all I hear in my head is "Nya, nya, nya, nya, nyaaaaa."

    Arguing skillfully is something we need to learn.  Hearing "Nya, nya, nya, nya, nyaaaa" in your head sure points to you being rather immature and childish though.  Seriously, what are you a ten year old?

    on the contrary, mysterious one, it means that the other person in the discussion is the ten year old.
