That's exactly what a bonehead would say
i always have people accuse me of not caring/being an asshole/unenthusiastic because my voice is really uninteresting and can be really monotone at times. it annoys the fuck out of me because im really trying
it doesnt help that im really socially awkward

This is something I dealt with a lot in highschool and a lot of it had to do with being bullied in middle school and prior. I basically had to force more energy and modulation into my voice during highschool and beyond until it just became natural and became mapped with my internal emotions.
I think a lot of my original monotonous had to do with fear of being judged, in my own personal experience.

makes sense, im terrible in really any social situation, it can be in person or over the internet.
in fact by the time i post this ive probably read over it like 5-6 times becuase im terrified of interaction with other people. i guess it comes from the short period of time where i was bullied, even got to the point of being cornered in a bathroom, so im usually pretty bad around people.
mother fucking fidget spinners
The bathroom in one of the buildings on campus in slightly colder than the rest of the building.
People who stand on the left side of the escalator instead of standing on the right side or just walking up. And especially people who suddenly stop walking up the escalator when they're almost at the top. You walked the whole way there so why stop? I don't get it.
Whenever I take picture of myself I look either dead inside and/or concerned because I don't have my eyes open enough and when I open my eyes more I look like some weird forest gremlin.
None of them is that far from truth though which makes it bit amusing plus we all hate our own faces to some degree anyway.
A minor thing but I can never remember what color the eyes of the people I know are, unless it really stands out like bright blue or stuff like that.
When game promo/cover art is so vastly different from the style of the game.
Like, for example, I saw this game in the "Special Offers" section of the Steam store:
[img]https://i.imgur.com/u1Xz71r.png[/img]
and went "Huh, isn't this that X-Files themed game where you can swap the toilet paper roll direction? Looks interesting." So, I clicked it, and I'm greeted by this on the store page:
[t]https://i.imgur.com/tgq5zQX.png[/t]
and suddenly it looks a lot less cool to me. I was hoping to see something more like Gemini Rue's artstyle:

so seeing those big heads and flat-colored characters really just turned me off all in one fell swoop.
Bathrooms at festivals, always muddy and everyone can see/hear if you're taking a dump
There's also people waiting 24 hours a day to use them, so you never feel like you can relax
The overrepresentation of anal in rule 34.
when people call 16-bit sprites 8-bit and vice versa
there's a distinct difference between 8-bit sprites and 16-bit sprites and it bugs me to no end

Adding to this, different pixel sizes in a game/artwork. I have never seen it look remotely ok.

FINALLY SOMEONE WHO AGREES HOLY SHIT
I always sit on my feet, orwith my feet in front of me because i'm a weird monkey man
the annoying thing is that my current chair keeps fucking rotating to this one specific spot, which means i'll get turned away from the screen if i don't hold the table :v:
I've actually grown tired of people apologizing for their fuck ups
it never makes a difference and people stop caring eventually anyways

"8 bit"
AAAAAAAAAAAAA
[QUOTE=ThatSwordGuy;52676938]Fucking Starbound does this and I want to rip my hair out[/QUOTE]
I've played Starbound and they're mostly consistent with pixel sizes
Terraria though is the god worst offender of different sized 8 bit pixels like ffs egh
[QUOTE=The golden;52677734]When Youtubers/shows do something like "it's X degrees Fahrenheit out right now or X Celsius for you international types."
Like seriously bugger off with this crap. Metric is what the [B]entire rest of the world[/B] uses. Stop acting like you're pandering or doing us some big favour by giving us the metric measurements.[/QUOTE]
yeah god forbid channels that have american centric audiences cater to two different education systems beyond their control
I do agree that anybody who treats metric like it's weird are dumb though.
I'm 100% on board with metric but Celsius is actually just straight-up worse than Fahrenheit in 9/10 usage cases. Fahrenheit for weather and Kelvin for science until I die.
So a bit back, Microsoft released some statistics saying "Bing is bigger than you think it is!" saying that it's 33% of searches in the U.S.
However, Microsoft has Bing searches tied into them. No, I don't mean the fact that you can get 250 points a day from searching random bullshit on Bing from your phone/PC combined (which probably also does a bit for increasing the percentage), I mean that [B]every single time you answer a quiz question it uses Bing to search what you just answered in the background of the quiz[/B].

I don't see why though?

I think it really boils down to what you're used to, I find Fahrenheit absolute bullshit to work with as it just seems like a random scale that somebody thought up. Celsius seems logical as 0c is the freezing point of water, and 100c is the boiling point of it. Then in Fahrenheit 32f is the freezing point, and the boiling point is 212f. it just seems so unlogical for me :v:
I read somehwere once that Celcius is for water, but Fahrenheid was made for humans?

Nonsense, how could water read celsius? They're both made for humans!
When the difference between one volume click and the next is too much. Volume 6 on my phone with my bluetooth speaker is a bit too quiet, but for some reason Volume 7 is far too loud. Really bugs me.
[QUOTE=Kirbyfactor;52681036]I read somehwere once that Celcius is for water, but Fahrenheid was made for humans?[/QUOTE]
The urban legend is that zero degrees fahrenheit was the coldest temperature they could artificially make with the technology of the time, and 100 degrees was what they measured to be the average human body temperature, but one of the guys they measured had a fever and they didn't realize.
That's the rumor, I don't know if there's any truth to that, but the 100 degree one sounds plausible to me.
When a YouTube video discusses Doom within the 90's but the footage is obviously from GZDoom.
Bonus points if they have texture filtering and mouselook enabled.
