2 things, that are somewhat related.

-Sense of entitlement.
I worked hard therefore i deserve this. I'm a good person therefore i deserve this. I pay taxes therefore i deserve this. I didn't do that therefore i didnt deserve to suffer that. I tried to do this therefore i deserve this. My intention wasnt this therefore i shouldnt suffer this. I am this therefore you should do this for me.


-No accountability for their actions or a lack a foresight.
I was making 6 figures, blowing a huge chunk of my money on useless things when economy was good, now economy is down and making way less. Its the government's fault i'm on the streets.
I chose to take the quick route and made fast money doing XXXX profession instead of going to school, now my job has fallen behind and nobody wants to hire me. Its the economy's fault.
I chose to have lots of promiscious unprotected sex and now i've contracted aids. Its not my fault.
This deal sounds really good. It was too good to be true. I took the deal. I got scammed. It wasnt my fault.
I risk my money on the stock market, i lost money, now i'm broke. Someone please bail me out, i'm not supposed to lose money on the stock market.
I commited crimes and went to jail in the past. That was in the past, you shouldnt use what i did in the past to make a judgement on me. (yet if this guy did something good, i bet he'd be gloating about his successes in the past)
Buy multiple houses and stretch my budget and morgage in order to make lots of money. Housing market crashes, ask for bailouts and whines about how its not fair.
Drinking hot mcdonalds coffee in a moving car on a road full of bumps and traffic while keeping my eye on the road and other hand on the steering wheel. Spill hot drink on my lap. Its McDonalds fault for making the drink so hot.

lol yeah, sense of entitlement is pretty annoying. incidentally, my sermon two weeks ago was about that. i also tied it in loosely with the 50th anniversary of the "i have a dream" speech and how the speech was grossly misinterpreted to grant entitlement to all people (instead of freedoms and rights, which is a completely different thing).

Haha, it's all good.. not your fault.

[nature boy]

speaking of entitlement, it also grinds my gears when people act pretentious. or admit to want to hang out with other pretentious people in hopes to "out pretent" them.
almost as though being pretentious is an admirable trait.

lols.....

knew that would come up somehow

You know what grinds my gears? people who pass off crappy work as work done because they know that it'll eventually fall into someone else's hands and they won't have to deal with the garbage they created...

[nature boy]

that reminds me of kitty going back to work and spending like 6 months fixing the mess the previous accountant created haha.
6. freaking. months.

[Duncan]

you know what else grinds my gears? people who feel the need to point out every mistake someone writes on a forum just to get a laugh even though they know what the person is saying anyway hah...

grammer cops, they are like nazis

[geForce]

People who think they are above the law, or think that the law doesn't apply to them. I guess this can be lumped into a sense of entitlement

For example, people who drive over the speed limit and defend their "right" to do so because they feel the speed limit is set too low and they are completely safe driving 20 over the limit.

This is different from people who speed but fully realize that they are breaking the law by doing so.
