Usually they don't commit acts of violence against the target of their prejudice but they will make hurtful comments out of ignorance. Do you hate that family member(s?) Do you ostrasize them?

But that comes with reason not out of ignorance. I don't know why you would ask if I would ostracize my family. When I had no mention or indication of that what so ever.

I dislike when people go off-topic. Save this for another thread this thread is for statements stating what you dislike only. Also I dislike how those ads for the humane society play the sad music and show abused animals. When we all know that it's the humane society that ultimately kills these animals. For shame guilt tripping bastards, for shame. Also I dislike that my point makes me wanna adopt the pet more. And I friggin hate the eagles man!

So would you attempt to ostracize your fairly racist but really harmless grandmother? You know, put her in a lousy home and make sure she does not get any invites to family reunions. Because, you know, she is a racist. She does not even deserve to be tolerated. She is a terrible human being.

I dislike IE.

I dislike... hmm. Politics. I know, typical. I watch it from time to time though, but I get so damn tired of the bickering. It's all about being right.

Bad analogy.

I dislike Pink things.

I agree that negative threads can be a downer, but it's although unhealthy to harbour certain things... so I do enjoy the occasional rant/vent.

I "dislike"

People that say:
-'like' a lot.
-'Literally' a lot
-how shitty their life is.

People that are:
-passive aggressive
-racist
-unbelievably ignorant. I can deal with some ignorance, but some people have such a high callibre of ignorance that it's rediculous.
-cocky
-unnecessarily hostile, or that resort to hostility right off the get go.
-fanboys of any kind. Being a fan is one thing, but some people go about it in such an agressive and condescending manner.
-project a certain image. Tough guy, emo, jock etc. Just be yourself for once.
-pushing stuff on me. Whether religion, athiesm, political views, music etc. Let me form my own opinions for christ sake.

I, unfortunately, have a lot of things I hate... I could write a series of books on them. But, luckily I don't dwell on them or let them influence my life.

How so? You said that racist people should not be tolerated and put them in the category of people who don't deserve to be associated with. Now that it is personal why don't you respond? Is it because, when it is personal, you realize that being racist means yes, you are ignorant, but maybe not evil?

Agreed. Those people that won't listen to ANYTHING anybody (or, in some cases, just you) say and will only go by what they believe and their opinions.

I dislike people continuously saying stuff along the lines of "fuck my life" in a serious way when everything gets done for them.
I dislike people who continue to lie even though I bring it up with them, and can prove they're lying.
I dislike mushrooms
but I like melon!

You said you don't tolerate racists and many of your posts seemed to imply they were bad people. If you really could not tolerate someone, why wouldn't you ostracize them? I don't believe you actually would do that to a family member and never thought you would- but instead I was contending how treating racists with intolerance is wrong and assuming they are terrible people, if you were doing that that is, is also ignorant.

*caliber *ridiculous

I dislike poor spelling.

I dislike anime chicks.

Lol, but really. I agree with mindwanderer. People who think their life is f'd up or something, or try to force their ideas on you is annoying.

I also dislike when people say things like "if it weren't for Jesus, I'd either be dead or in jail". Come on now. To me, that's like saying that because you have little common sense, the outcome of your life is in someone else's hands?

Haha, thanks! I was never the best speller... or spellist... or whatever you call 'em.

If I had to pick my two "top" dislikes, it would be:
-People who are unreasonably ignorant of anything.
-People that don't know how good they have it. Aka people who piss and moan about the most trivial stuff. I just wish I could take away their internet, food, clean water, and paralyze them... you know... stuff that is actually worthy of a complaint. As opposed to things like... let's see... their parents not letting them get a new xbox game, or new shoes... or a getting dumped by someone.
