I’ve got two.
1. People who take pride in not knowing things. Ignorance is never something to be proud of, regardless of whether you’re ignorant of life skills, popular music, sports, or something else.
2. People who throw regular old trash in public ashtrays. Ashtrays are for cigarette butts only. This is how fires happen, people.

Experts who think they know everything yet in truth know nothing yet insist they do actually know something but don’t.

Yes, I hate the first one too! I still remember how our former chancellor opened the national year of Mathematics grinning, with the words ‘I’ve always sucked at maths’ and then he made a pause for people to applause.
I didn’t feel sorry for him at all when they started booing instead.
Not once does the diversity seem forced -- the genius of the record is how the vaudevillian "When I'm 64" seems like a logical extension of "Within You Without You" and how it provides a gateway to the chiming guitars of "Lovely Rita. - Stephen T. Erlewine on Sgt Pepper's

Here’s 2 relating to The Beatles. As much as I think The Beatles are the greatest musical act to ever live, they made mistakes:
1. Off center vocals
The Beatles didn’t know how to mix for stereo and this shows. In a good stereo mix, the vocals are centered but not with The Beatles, half of the songs on Sgt. Pepper ‘s Lonely Hearts Club Band have the vocals either panned to the left or right, which is one of the reasons people like Ron Nasty prefer the mono mixes.
2. Playtapes
If you didn’t already know, the Playtape was a very (and I mean very) short lived music format that lasted from 1966 to 1969 that mostly contained 2 short poor quality mono programs, often only being able to contain 2 tracks for each, like an 8 track but a million times worse. This meant that they could only choose 4 tracks out of the album to put on the tape. This would be fine if they chose to pick the 4 most popular songs, but most of the time they just picked 4 random songs, like as if they picked them out of a hat. Here are 2 Beatle related problems:
A: Why are Revolver and The Beatles the only albums that have more than 1 Playtape for them and why does The Beatles have 5 volumes, while albums like Sgt. Pepper and Meet The Beatles only have 4 songs on them, across the 5 volumes, The Beatles has the vast majority of it’s tracks on there.
B: For the Yellow Submarine Playtape, instead of including just the 4 new Beatles tracks, why did you include 1 repeat, 1 original, and 2 orchestral tracks.

Is anyone bothered when you order something new from Amazon and the CD comes with dents and creases in the digipak spine or dents on the Bluray case?
It seems like I’m always ordering something and I send about half of what I order back. Every Now And Then I get to the point where I am now, where I have yet another damaged item and I’m like, should I just give up and keep this?
Am I the only person who thinks “new” should look new? If I’m going have something that’s damaged I would prefer to do it myself, not have it arrive pre-damaged.

If I had to guess, they didn’t do a good job at protecting your stuff and your items were damaged during shipping. I recommend buying used off a site like eBay, saves a lot of money, unless if the thing just got released. If you prefer your stuff new, then I recommend going to a store and buying it in person, in the store, you can actually pick out the copy that is flawless unlike online where you get what you get.

True, but I have Prime, which means I get everything in two days. And if I don’t like it, I can just return it and get another one in two more days. Still, it’s supremely annoying. And yes, the items were shipped in bag that had no padding.

I know a lot of the things I said here are minor and don’t effect me that much (such as how most modern pop songs use drum machines or how Magical Mystery Tour was released as a double EP instead of a single 33rpm EP), but this one does:
I hate when I do something that makes me look bad, especially on a place like here. Sometimes I am unaware that what I am doing is bad, other times I get carried away and go too far. It’s sad because it sucks to see negativity being shined down on me, I can’t stand the feeling of looking or feeling like a bad person, it’s just unbearable. I’ll be honest, I’m not a perfect person, I punch walls, yell obscenities, act crazy, am overly obsessed with this forum, get so pissed off that I laugh, cry like a little kid, the list goes on so I understand where me looking bad comes from, whether it be on or off the forum, but it pisses me off when it happens because looking bad is bad, especially when people that I think of as friends feel that way.

I feel exactly the same way, @Dark Overlord. It doesn’t make you feel very good, it lowers your self-confidence, and all you want to do is disappear.
But hey, you learn from mistakes, so they can’t be bad all of the time!

Correcting by PM would help with that.
If you can't log in and can't use the forum go here and someone will help you out.

This whole correcting thing is not something I’d recommend. Yes, we should look to better ourselves in how we conduct ourselves in daily living but we shouldn’t stubbornly focus on it or constantly actively seek it out and people shouldn’t be PM’ing others on how to improve. Simple rule is post and behave in a manner that you’d like to be seen on here sticking to the forum rules, remembering people of all ages, backgrounds, cultures, beliefs etc are on here.
If someone sends me a PM on how to change i’d tell them firmly to get stuffed.

Personally, I’d rather have it by PM than on the forum if people are gonna do it. Better than going to the pet peeves area and complaining about another users actions imo.

I’d rather have it right out here in the open where I most likely will never see it because I don’t subscribe to any posts. With a PM, you have to make a special effort to sign in and open it just to find out some punk (punk is used here in the generic, not to name an individual) is correcting you.

I say only mention it if they ask you or if you are a mod and feel that you have to and I don’t think it matters too much whether it’s by PM or not, it’s a personal preference, I prefer not to use PM’s but if someone would rather talk to me or have me talk to them about something that way, I will.

If the person requests help, they can specify if they want PM’s or posts on the open forum.
Someone tried to “school” me in a PM this week.
No, I won’t tell you who it was.
