I hate my exercise-induced asthma...it's been holding me back somewhat. Hopefully with the new exercise at the gym I can force it down over time with practice, but it's still an extreme irritant towards any activity.

I'm also asthmatic. It was never a real problem for me with weightlifting, but running is generally off the table for me. I've found that I can power walk quite quickly (nearly 5mph at last check) without it flairing up, since it's still the even breathing of walking. You might want to try that instead of jogging/running.

Aye...I've also noticed that with exercise bikes I'm fine so long as the program doesn't randomly shift between different rates of difficulty...I'd be able to do well on a normal bike but the roads around here--I live up in the rural mountains--are so uneven that it's just too difficult to get up to speed, and the only bike I have is hardly suited for mountain biking in any case.

Still...I think I can control it with time and training...the key is to not give up any sort of exercise despite it...I'm too fat as it is to do otherwise.

I hate the fact that my Cowboy Bebop collection is totally invalidated now that it's all been remastered in 5.1 surround sound. On that note, I hate DVD milking of every kind. I know that even if I buy the first Pirates box set, a second will debut a year or two after containing some amazing new interview or featurette. This is hell on archivists.

I've probably already said it at some point in this thread, but I hate it when saved information--and writing in particular--is lost on the computer via software crash, hardware malfunction, or electrical outage. Hate, hate, hate it!

That's why I have two hard drives, and regularly ensure redundancy. I'm thinking of doing a RAID-1 array when I build my next computer, now that they have eSATA enclosures in my price/capability range.

Yes indeed. But for the loss of writing, software failures are the biggest problem for me. I did lose a hard drive once, including some of the contents thereon, but far more often has my browser crashed or my operating system failed, leading to a greater loss of information.

Be that as it may, I have got one sweet redundancy system planned for my long-stalled computer build project.

Instead of another hard drive.... floppy discs, data cds, DVDRW... but it's your choice.

I hate when I let my emotions get the better of me and I start taking out my frustration on everyone, especially people I respect...I'm not a mean person by nature and I don't like hurting people, in any fashion.

I hate drama.  Hate hate hate drama.  I cherish my emotions but I dont see why people feel the need to amplify them and wreak havoc.

Me too, especially the news.  I get all of my news from the internet and the Daily Show now.  Sadly, a place where anyone can post anything and a parody news show seem to be more accurate and on topic than the stuff you see on TV.

Is this a thread where you're supposed to tell everyone about the things you hate? Cuz I hate those.

I hate peanut butter also. It tastes so... Unnatural.
