For no reason at all, I’ve created a new poll based on two seemingly unrelated topics.  The relationship between the two choices is that both are things that annoy me (perhaps you too).  Without further ado:

[poll id="3"]

Of the two, I think YouTube commenters are probably more annoying due to the combination of popularity and anonymity that really highlights how people behave when they don’t have to show any bit of responsibility for their comments.  It’s not that I expect deep conversation on such a site, and thankfully you can hide the comments, but it just makes me pine for the day when BBSes ruled the landscapes and it was just us nerds.  (Maybe YouTube should make people perform a complex math question before allowing their comments to be posted.)

Speaking of nerds, Cosplayers out-nerd most other nerds and help remind me how normal I really am.  I guess there’s no harm done with people dressing up as their favorite character from some obscure and crappy japanese cartoon, but it still annoys me to some extent.  Probably has something to do with my distaste for said animation (on the most part, there are a couple exceptions) and the obsessiveness of the American kids who fawn over it.
