2012 brings new things to discover as well as uncertainty about the future. It also brings more of that 2012 doomsday BS that has been running rampant the past few years, despite common sense and scientists actually proving that the predicted Mayan doomsday will not happen! But that still doesn't stop idiots like Discovery Channel, History Channel, Patrick Geryl and other morons from continuing to shove their doomsday shows and books down our throats!
Since the world will end in 356 days from now (we are in a leap year, so we have the 29th of February), I've decided to have my own fun with this "phenomenon". Don't worry, I'm not going to talk about how the earth will suddenly reverse its magnetic fields or anything like that. I lack the intelligence to make sense of that stuff.
The reason for this title if I'm not going to talk about 2012? A certain 80's song that critics think is probably the worst song in history.

Why are you adding me? I don't know you!

This is something I needed to get off my chest for a long time now. I'm on MSN virtually every time I come online. I don't have many friends on my contact list, unlike others who have tons of friends. So, I got my own little group who I chat with. That means I still don't know a lot of people and or I'm too afraid to add new people that I know from here.
So, this is where my favorite pet peeve comes in. One day, I start up MSN and there's a notice that I new friend has added me. But there's a problem. I don't know this person! I've never seen this person's e-mail before. And here's the thing that really grinds my gears and I wish every IM has this option. Add a note telling who you and what site you're from!
Because of people just randomly adding me to their lists, I'm blocking all friend invites from now on. And when I do add these people, THEY NEVER have the courtesy to send you an IM when you accept them! So, I have no clue who this person who just added me is!! What's wrong with just shooting a person a little e-mail saying who you are and what site you're from. You know, a little greeting. Not just randomly add me to your goddamn list since I don't know you AT ALL!!!!
After this, I'm just fed up. I'll never accept another MSN friend invite. If I don't know you or you don't tell me who you are, I'm blocking you!! I may sound like I'm being an ass about it, but I'm just friggin' sick of it.
To anybody who reads this, try me. I DARE YOU!

Oh, this annoys me, too. I get a few every so often from random people...But people *can* add notes saying who you are to the invite, they just never seem to :/Posted March 25th, 2009 at 9:03 AM by Jorah

Yeah, that can be pretty annoying. Years ago, I would get all sorts of random requests and IMs from people I don't know (I don't think they had the ability to restrict who could IM you back then, or if they did, I was too stupid to notice). I don't like blocking people, but I also don't want to add someone I've never talked to. Luckily, I only have one person on my block list at the moment. Who knows...that may change soon.Posted March 25th, 2009 at 9:54 AM by X-626

The same thing annoys me all the time! Dx
It's like.. if people are gonna add me, I really wish they'd fill in that little note line, telling me who the heck they are. I don't care if was Andy that added me, if I don't recognize the email, and no one tells me who they are.. I just deny it. = =;
Sometimes I accept, if they take the time to say that they really want me to add them.. but otherwise, it's a no-go.Posted March 25th, 2009 at 11:23 AM by Taemin

I don't have an MSN, but there have been people on here, BMGf, and Serebii that randomly try to add me as their friends. It's pretty annoying since I don't know them. =/ And then I say 'I don't know you, so we'll have to talk first', ya know, just to be nice. And then I get no reply. So I guess they sent me a request for no reason.Posted March 25th, 2009 at 12:48 PM by ShinjisLover
