What annoys you more?

Postby Shadowalker » Wed Dec 12, 2007 11:20 am

1) People with handles that include the number '666' in it.

2) People who say "*Insert celebrity here* is God!"

Both of these annoy me a fair bit when I come across them on the net (both I take as a slap in the face of my faith).

666 is just a number, so it doesn't annoy me in the very least.

So I'd say #2. Easily.

I once sarcastically said "Bono is god!" once, because he has shown that he is Christ-like in many ways. But I was only half-serious about it, and made it known from the get-go.

The only mention of 666 is that it's the number of man.

The latter is more annoying XD

666 just looks creepy to me....*shudders* call me weird.

Yes, I know its just a number XD

Hm....second one would annoy me the most. 666 in the username would just make me wonder if that person had all their bolts tightened.

Second one probably annoys me more too, actually.

I used to read a lot of Tim LaHaye's "Left Behind" books at one time (I own most of them actually), and so seeing '666' in a person's handle probably impacts me a bit more than it did before I read them because of it. On other sites, and on YouTube, I see the number in a lot of people's handles.

The vast majority of people who use 666 as a handle aren't the sort who need to be bothered with. A good number of them are just young teenagers who think sporting a controversial number makes them "Edgy," and therefore cool or hardcore.

Basically, it's one rung lower on the social ladder than walking around holding a sign reading "I'm so cool."

Actually, teens with "666" in their handle pretty much amount to this cartoon:

Quoted for truth. XD Basically, I find both items one and two annoying as traits of forum members, but neither as a personal insult. Both are just kind of displays of ignorance, I guess. XD

The number 666 is the Mark of the Beast according to Revelation. What gets on my nerves is how on some forums people take the whole meaning of the number out of proportion. Like you're going to die soon or have bad luck and other nonsense Number two , I don't like how some celebrities are revered as if they were God himself.
Some of my favorite scriptures.

Psalm91
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

Hebrews 4-4
1Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.
2For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.
3For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.
4For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.



James 4
Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.



Revelation 22:14
Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

Revelation 13: 16-17
15And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

16And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

17And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.


That there implies that is the mark of the beast. Those that receive it are those that are not loyal to God etc.

Not starting a debate at all. Just posting what the Bible says about the number. Even though 666 is a modern appearance in Bible text of today while 616 and 665 showed up in at least once from an ancient source. according to Wikipedia. But Wikipedia isn't reliable on certain subjects. So I'm going to study more to see if that is true.

In verse 18, it says it's the number of man:

Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

Or is it calling the man the beast?

Yes there is that as well. It also refers to the mark of the Beast, and the man part refers to humans that receive it . But don't quote me, I could be wrong, I'm still studying the whole meanings of Daniel and Revelation. And praying to God that I understand every detail.

No. 2 is more annoying. I'll rather deal with Paris Hilton's [insert someone/something]'s hot.

But nothing bugs me the most than usernames/email addresses with loads of numbers, random caplocks and unnecessary decorative symbols in them. No offence intended for those of you who have such usernames.

666 annoys just because of the reason Fish mentioned. They are just either "hardcore" kids who listen to Slipknot and Godsmack and think they are all that and more. Were as number 2 well they are just dumb " Dumb fan:Jack sparrow is God!!! : me Umm then why does the world not consist of oceans,rivers. and lakes or rum? Fan: uhhhhhh... its just a saying dude..." so yeah both are annoying on there own ways

Neither. I think it is rather silly really. Everyone knows btw that Haruhi
Suzumiya is God!
Ok,that was a joke, for the humor impaired a joke is something that we use to lighten up a serious conversation and it enables us to make fun of ourselves. Got that K.Ayato, Mithrandr, ucpseudonym and all the other
humor impaired out there?
But seriously we shouldn't really be taking such things overly serious.

[Mod Edit. Look at your post right now. It must be such a new thing to see spaces where they belong! Now, humor aside. You ignore warnings, you never respond to points people make. And quite honestly you are one of the most ignorant members we have ever had. Yet, you remain smart enough to not break big enough rules to cause problems. Consider this a warning mate. Taking popshots at Mith and UC? Bad idea. Just a friendly warning from your local mod. ShatterheartArk-]

2: Even tho I know that the tripple 6 is very bad, it's not the thing that REALLY annoys me.

1: The thing that annoys me the most, is the kind of people who think they know everything as if they were from the begining of time and go as far as to say that God is imaginary.:shady:

You know what's not a joke? Using the space bar after a punctuation mark.

Oh, and also being polite to your fellow forum members and not directly attacking people in your posts who haven't even said anything in a particular thread. And to add to that, not disrespecting the moderators.

Just saying.
