List of things that I will blame when I'm suffering from high blood pressure in the future
1. Guys who don't lift the toilet seats when urinating
This is extremely selfish and irresponsible, what's so hard about bringing the seat up before a pee? If you have excellent aim, good for you. But if you don't, please please please lift the seat up. I DO NOT want to rest my buttcheeks on the seat where your warm stinky manpiss once resided on. Even after wiping furiously, I can almost still feel the urea on my bare skin.
Worse are shoe prints on the toilet seat, WHAT THE FUCK? WHY ARE THEY THERE? These fine specimen of human devolution are most commonly found in many of the bus stations' toilets. It's either you unleash your jet of pee with one foot on the wall and the other on the seat (like a dog) or you have extremely severe fear of sitting on other's urine. For the latter, just wipe it off and complain on the internet la.
2. Extreme usage of professional Photoshoppery on Friendster, Xanga, MySpace or whatever you young people have nowadays
Slight image edting here and there is fun, a little contrast change, a colour swap here etc. are all perfectly fine. But when you do this:

(Click for full image LOL This isn't me by the way, I'm not as sexy and adorable. It's just a lovely picture of my friend JunXian which I found very suitable for this subject. Of course, he is a responsible young man who doesn't pose like that all the time. He is also a handsome and gentlemanly gentleman for letting such an unfortunate picture reside in my hard drive.)
And I happen to see it, I WILL cringe and die a little inside because of your misuse of such a wonderful software.
As a learning graphic designer, I may also consider giving up using Photoshop and switch to something less abusable such as MS Paint. The options are more limited and all my works will look like these:

But somehow I think it will be worth it.
3. People who use "lol" and "omg" as much as they can, even off the Internet.
Also: People who tYpe LiKe ThIs
This is somewhat related to the previous rant. My hatred of kewl online abbreviations such as "lol", "omg", "wtf", "pwn", "KNNCCB", "ABC", "BBC", "凤凰台", "TV3", "FUCJEKNKN" and their many h4x0r3d variants is very groundless, I just don't like it. I have actually heard "lol" being spoken in real life before, my friend pronounced it as "lawl". ZhiWen, I'm sorry, it's you I'm talking about. LOL JK LOR! No seriously, don't pound me into the ground.
The alternate capping way of typing happened to everyone before, I'm sure. Even me, the person here whining about it. My very first nickname used on mIRC was PrOf_OaK because POKEMON WAS COOL DAMN IT. That wasn't important anyway so let's forget the last 10 seconds (or 3 if you read fast) of reading the previous sentence. As I was saying, this form of typing happened to everyone before when they first started using chat programs such as mIRC and ICQ.
But that was when you were 12, surely you have grown out of typing like a blind chimpanzee with epilepsy a couple of years later? Apparently, no. Friendster has proven this time and time again. Mark Darwin is lolling in his grave now, for his theory of human evolution was just one big elaborate joke. (lolll geddit??/ lOllIng iN His GraVe)
4. Also slightly related, streaming media on Friendster accounts
Why must you make my browser freeze for a couple of seconds when all I want to do is just to laugh at how ridiculous you are? Why must you make it so hard for me? Some users, I swear, are dying to show you the full streaming football match because it takes a long time to load but all I need are your incredible specimens of Photoshoppery in the gallery. Why?

sObX.
5. You're, your. They're, their. My, mine.
The sad thing is that most of these mistakes I see online are made by people who have English as their first language. I'm no English major by any shot but still, cringeworthy stuff.
Okay I better stop here before I run out of content for the upcoming entries. If you think I was writing about you, I'm not. I only write about those who wouldn't read my blog.
