Honestly it doesn't really annoy me when people say that the Atomic Bomb ended World War II.
What annoys me is that everyone actually believes that we "saved 1 million American lives" with the bomb. Of course at the time it may have seemed like that, but in hindsight we can see that it was clearly an exaggerated number. So why are people still acting like it's true? I guess that's the way people are, but it's annoying.

Also, I wouldn't mind it so much if I didn't see it myself, but people really need to stop making Pearl Harbor seem much bigger than it is. There were way too many people who were happy when the earthquake hit Japan, saying they deserved it.

Anyway, only reason I even care is because I had to deal with some of this stuff growing up as a half-Japanese male.
