General - Don't be THAT Guy - View Post

The various kinds of "that guy" (or girl) I know...

1)  The Sheep.  This type of person gets on any and every hype train they find.  They have no free will or thought.  They cling to each passing fad just long enough to see the next one coming along.

2)  The Promiser.  This is the type of person who promises the moon and delivers nothing.  Every day/week/month is another "I'm going to XYZ."  Nothing ever happens with any of these promises because they're hollow.  Eventually you just learn to take nothing they say seriously because all the promises are worthless.

3)  The Devil's Advocate.  This is the type of person who argues everything and absolutely everything... for no reason.  It wastes my time, it wastes their time, it wastes everyone's time.  There are times where it's appropriate to consider different angles for a situation but not when it's 12:00 AM and you want Taco Bell.

4)  The Awkward.  This is the type of person who absolutely destroys a conversation by mentioning something very awkward and usually rather personal.  A fun filled night of anime watching with a group of friends is not a proper place to talk disturbing childhood experiences and it is never acceptable to make an exit saying you're going off to masturbate.

5)  The Desperate.  This is the type of person who wants to be socially accepted but self-destructs every time they get the chance in a way somehow more lame than the last.  Okay, we get it that you found your little youtube video funny but we think it's lame.   Your anime/game is boring us and we're tired of hearing "Just wait, it gets better" because you know what?  It's not getting better.

6)  The Bad Drunk.  You can't take these people anywhere.  When they get drunk they get whiny or angry or just pass out.  There are people who get way more fun when there are drunk and then there's everyone else.  The last thing I wanna do at a party is listen to someone whine and complain.
