    people who are too lazy to make the effort to type an extra two letters, but use the shift key to emphasise something else in the same paragraph.

    text speak is not big or clever and i'm just about drunk enough to make it against the charter.

    replacing "some" with "sum", "one" with "1" or anything similar will now be a bannable offence.*

    i also hate george bush and his misdirected bully tactics.
    he needs to die.













    *not really bannable. it just pisses me off. although, if you do test me with it, i will ban you.

    The man talks sense. In a world that doesn't make any.
    Seriously though, he may call Liverpool players clowns on a semi-regular basis, but he's got his head screwed on right, I tellsya!

    The world could do without people who waste their time moaning about some zeal purely based on their own opposing form of zeal.

    Miriam O'Callaghan. 99% of people on Irish Telly. (Ray D'arcy excepted, of course).
    People who think they really know anything.
    Outdated music.

    I would've said Daniel O'Donnell, up until recently when he put that Germaine Greer cnut in her place on TV. :D

    Actually the world would be a better place without stingrays.

    Stingrays destroy lives and families.

    I'm afraid you're both in error. Based on a statistical analysis, he's irritating and predictable.

    One of my pet peeves is people who cant spell or pronouce Pádraig. Its pronounced Paw-drig. Everyone, everyone says Naomh Pádraig and lá le Phádraig right and most say Pádraig Harrington, but they'll turn around in the very next sentence and say it Pauric.
    But I cant get rid of them cos Im not great with names as I found out over the summer in San Diego. Couldnt even pronunce street names, though the Pádraig thing is a special type of stupidity.

    Chronic stoners, no pun intended. The type who smell, have no gfs, never socialise, never progress at school or work, who just get depressed and balame all their woes on somebody else.

    Anarchists. Most of anarchism is based on lies. Capitalism is a natural system that evolved from anarchism. Even anarchism if you look at it is a micro version of the world today. Economics isnt a construct its an analysis - you cant change it.

    The narrow minded pretentious type. People who say I dont like X,Y,Z so anyone who does is stupid. Or A,B,C are so beneath me - that makes practitioners losers. I dont feel that makes me a hypocrite giving out about stoners because I feel theres nothing wrong with weed, its ppl who go over board who are muppets.

    The narrow minded dangerous type. Bigots, racists, sexists and Religious extremists. I wont get rid of religion because some people need some beliefs to keep them going. So many wasted lives, so many people who'll never experience so much and so many people who've endured too much :(

    The psychotic. While this is a contentious and complicated issue, i dont believe except in extreme cases of physical mental retardation that someone doesnt know right from wrong. I think there are a lot of ppl who are selfish and ppl who can justify anything, but that doesnt mean because they can do this they are excused from social norms.

    Who gets to stay!

    Why complain about stupid and gullible proles (americans) or working class scum (knackers), without either of these groups those not in these groups would have to do a lot more (and unpleasant) work?

    Solicitors, marketers, and capitalists. They do vital jobs and you need them. Especially marketers, they do more for evolution and progress in standards of living than the inventor. The inventor comes up with an idea, the marketer makes you need it and makes it improve your life. Granted they can go overboard and they're not perfect but its a very cheap price considering their services to humanity.

    You take that back, I'm with you on the others but not the curry cheese chips. Yummy!

    Anyway, the world would be better off without religious extremists. Be they Catholic, Protestant, Muslim, Jew, scientologists or whatever. No other group of people seem to cause more problems all over the world then religious extremists. I think it's mostly an excuse used by angry, bitter and violent people to cause trouble and often has little to do with the actual religion.
    ...working class scum...
    It's the ones who don't work that I'd like to get rid of, pavey dole-blodging scumbags.

    Only if a big bird lookalike is your idea of pure sex heaven. Though big bird would probably do better interviews than yer wan, she's a dolt


  • Subscribers Posts: 32,937 ✭✭✭✭5starpool


    Get rid of:

    All Religion.
    Scumbags.


    I was going to post a longer list, but I honestly think if you got rid of the above the world would be 99% put to rights.

    And to fix the other 1%:
    Michael McDowell.
    Don Wycherly doing radio ads.
    Bad Drivers.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,312 ✭✭✭pbsuxok1znja4r


    All right, great stuff, now that we've come up with our lovely big list of things to do away with, how shall we go about actually doing away with them?
    ...That was the point of this, wasn't it? I mean, it wasn't just to prattle and moan and then do nothing about it? :confused:

    So to reiterate: People who think they know anything. People who are arrogant enough to proclaim someone else's life 'wasted'.
    Mopeds! :mad:
