When people order steak or hamburgers well done.  
You're just ruining food 

I mean, it doesn't have to be a hockey puck... but if I'm tasting blood, it's not cooked nearly enough.

In my book, burgers and steak should have a pink center, but not RED.

 

Yes yes, I understand the "foodie" thing is to sear only the outside. 

And if they're going to pay for it, and if they're going to eat it, they have theirs that way.

If I'm paying for it, and I'm eating it?  Pink center but zero red.

Some of those match ups are hard... how do I pick between grilled cheese and pbj?

 

edit - I went with pbj and it lost to fried chicken sandwich in the final

You choose the grilled cheese.  You always choose the grilled cheese, no matter what the other options are.

Grilled salami and cheese would be a nobrainer, but it’s hard to beat a good pbj without any sort of cured meat.

Yes, @InvaderStych.   What Patti said.

Could you elaborate on this thread topic idea you have, please?

 

What it says on the tin:

 

"Legitimately True" and "Very Creepy" simultaneously.

 

Like a former lady-friend's description of preparing and cooking crab, which I wish I could remember word for word; basically along the lines of boiled alive, legs ripped off, spine cracked length-ways, and summarily gutted.  All true.  All rather creepy if you think about it too hard.  She said it better.  It was the most metal description of cooking I had ever heard.

You see a mousetrap? I see free cheese and a f$%^ing challenge.

Crabs don’t have a spine...

She was speaking metaphorically, which I guess if you want to have a semantic argument about truth sure, whatever.  You still break them in half along the middle.  Which was the point.  Making the description more ... disturbing .. was part of the (her) point in the first place.  Thus, metaphor.

I ended up with Bahn Mi versus Reuben.  Pickley goodness!

 

On the other hand, it didn't have one of these, with bacon and plenty of chili sauce, which is the real winner.

As someone who gets very real migraines from pushing myself playing high speed action games for too long of a time because of the heavy input of visual data on games like WarFrame and Path of Exile, someone trying to say CoHs speed of play while running around caves causes them issues, is truly suspect to me and if such is really enough to be causing you issues, then you likely need to stick to visual novels or other very low pace visual mediums.

I know some one with Simulator Sickness.

They have issues when moving too fast in the game.

They never use Super Speed.

In fact, i think they jog most places they go, or wait for a TP. Possibly fly.

 

Cave maps are a real chore for them. Because they do, literally, get sick if they move too fast in them.

It gave me Pulled Pork straight out of the gate. Nothing came close to beating it.

 

The final round was Pulled Pork versus Cheesesteak, but I knew my victor.

Pulled pork ranked pretty high in my bracket too, as did Cheesesteak, but Meatball Sub took the win!

People who post new Topics with unspecific, non-descriptive Titles. It makes navigating a message board really frustrating and encourages repeat posts because people can't find existing threads.

 

Examples: "I need help" "I have a problem" "Look at my build" "Here's an idea"

 

Of course the absolute worst are the people who blatantly ignore the importance of Titles. "I suck at titles" "An interesting title" etc.

 

This also applies to the subject fields in emails.

I hate the really confusing, misleading ones as well. Like the threads where you think the thread is going to be about little things that annoy you but it turns out the thread is about sandwiches and steak preferences.

 

Edit: Incidentally, rarer the better. The colour is flavour.

I get motion sickness on cave maps too, sometimes.  I find that fly/hover is significantly less likely to make me queasy than sprint/ss, possibly because the motion is smoother.

Its got to where ill pile up my ignore list because ik i cant get along with someone whos satisfied playing half a game running the same tfs and arcs 10000000 times over.

Wait. You put people on ignore because they decide they don't want to jump redside?

 

That reminds me of another pet peeve of mine: people who take the extreme response to something inconsequential.

My god, it wants me to choose between Italian Sub and Monte Cristo.  That's like.... choosing between Da Bears and Da Bulls.

I get sick when I'm on "rides" like Star Tours at Disney land.

Actually, I'm good as long as I don't look at the screen while the ride is going.

 

Also, I get sick on marry-go-rounds too.

Can't handle things that go in circles, apparently...

That's easy... if you don't like cheese.

 

Even my cheese steak has no cheese on it, but instead has mayo and bacon.

Dislike certain sounds? Silence/Modify specific sounds. Looking for modified whole powerset sfx?

Check out Michiyo's modder or Solerverse's thread.  Got a punny character? You should share it.
