View Full Version : Who else is in the Special Hell?
Wolfie Gilmore
19-11-07, 07:08 PM
Shepherd Book talked about a special hell - for Mal (if he takes sexual advantage of his "innocent" bride), paedophiles and people who talk at the theatre.
Who else should go there? And, perhaps keep your answers on the sillier, pettier end of the spectrum... ;)
So, I think, for starters....
- People who give you dirty looks for taking up two seats on the bus when you have a lot of bags even though there are lots and lots of other seats free. They're just looking for something to feel self righteous about. Special Hell for them!

As someone pointed out to me at the weekend...they NEED to do a good omens film right NOW. With Anthony Stewart Head as the fallen angel whose name escapes me, and Johnny Depp as the demon dude (crowley?).
And...ok, you might have to explain to me. Is urinal etiquette, when properly followed, that you never stand next to someone? Or is it about the queuing system? Or other? If it's too gross,you can leave it at "other" :D

Anyone who propagates any of the following ideas:
You only fall in love once.
All true love is love at first sight.
Once you have fallen in love with someone you love them forever.
Anyone who thinks that Buffy would turn to drug (including alcohol) abuse or cutting to cope with any situation.

Urinal etiquette
1. Eyes front
2. Always leave a urinal between, unless there is no other room and no stall available.
3. Eyes front
4. If you shake it three times, you're playing with it :)

-People who wear their trousers virtually around their knees, a fashion trend that once started with tracksuit bottoms and has now taken over jeans, shorts, and (to my shock) even suits! It's not cool. It's effing stupid. I don't want to see your boxers. Your arse is hanging out of your clothes. Put it back.
-People who make noise at the cinema. A tense, dramatic moment arises, and I am virtually transfixed by the screen, awaiting the next emotional shock, when sluuuuuurp, slap, crackle, pop comes from coke, popcorn and sweets. I swear popcorn (although maybe crisps?) is the noisiest food in existence. And then people who talk, especially on their phones. Bugger off if you don't want to watch the film!!! Argh!
-People who fart in enclosed spaces. Such as lifts. No explanation needed really.
-People who say 'I'm not interested in politics'. Considering it's more or less the thing that has the biggest impact on our lives every day, how can you not be interested in it?! It's like saying 'I'm not interested in [choose one or more] religion/morals/love/friendship/etc.' Just having a knowledge of current affairs, and knowing what you want from a government suffices generally, yet a lot of people don't even have that!
-People who have those little dogs. Paris Hilton is not cool. Neither are you. A dog is not a fashion accessory.
-Many more to follow!

I was going to say that! But also add that to say that politics is also not just in government. How you relate to another person, or even just about anything, can be seen in political terms. Politics is the master science. It is in everything! We as humans breathe it.
There should be a special hell for those in certain nations that decide that because another nation does not have the same system of government as you, that that nation needs "salvation". Democracy is cool and all, but it is not always for everyone. If the nation is functioning well without it and there isn't a great violation of very basic civil liberties then there is no issue. Besides, Socretes, Plato and Aristotle made such good arguements against democracy ;)
People who leave flyers on your windshield while you are in the store.
People who shop the day before Christmas and want to complain to the poor cashiers that the store didn't have what they were looking for or that they had to wait so long in line.

*sorry wolfie* People who try to read a paper over my shoulder... you just see them in the corner of your eye and it's just so offputting. Also if you lend a paper to someone and it returns as if a pigeon has been playing with it for an hour.
(lots of newspaper based ones it seems) At school the day's papers are brought in every morning and you can read them during free periods, I apsolutely hate it when you have one later in the day, read it and then go to do the crossoword and/or sudoku and someone has started it. That should be fine but they always seem to have made a mistake somewhere making what you have put subsequently complete rubbish :(

People who can't seem to be able to shut up during class and wind up getting the whole classroom in trouble.
People who hog the school bathrooms so that they could smoke(though I must admit, that's a bit hypocritical of me seeing as I used to do that as well before quitting. I never knew it could be so annoying)
People who listen to a kind of music played here in Romania. It pisses everyone off, yet they play songs at max volume. That's just annoying and the music is way, way beyond vulgar.

-People who have been in a queue to pay for something, but when they arrive, they spend 5 minutes digging through their coat/handbag/pockets looking for their credit cards which everyone else had ready.
-People who believe licking cutlery counts as washing it. *Shudders*
-Any lager-swilling skinhead who starts a sentence with the words 'immigrants' and 'jobs' in.
-Teenagers who wear ties that are wider than they are long. Great, you're trying to be rebellious. Except now that everyone is doing it, really, it's more non-conformist to have a long thin tie. Losers.

haha oh man, this thread is hilarious. no idea why im just posting in it now :O
ok i have one. customers who automatically assume you know where every single little thing is in the store, when its like gigantically massive. and they get all pissed off at you and give you daggers and roll their eyes and mumble under their breath because you dont know where the babies clothes are with the purple dresses that have the pink swirls on them and the white lace.

People who return library books with bookmarks still in them when the "bookmark" was not a bookmark, but toilet paper. Ugh. You read in the bathroom, we get it! We still don't want to touch the book!!! (Yes, this actually happens.)
That is HILARIOUS!! Oh no, they dont...eww! But funny.

Risa, you named it. Turn it off or leave it in the car -- if you are expecting an emergency, put it on vibrate and *excuse yourself* to answer. All else is villainy.
I know! I mean, it's okay if their cell rings and they say into it, "Sorry, can't talk now!" but people who sit there and carry on long conversations on the phone while the person they're eating dinner with is left sitting there bored.....I'd walk out if that happened to me!

Paparazzi.
I don't care if it is doing your job, you don't need to shove your effing camera in peoples faces, it is rude and celebrities would like to have some private time I'm sure. There is picture taking and then there is crossing the line.
Like the people who filmed as the paramedics took Heath Ledgers body from in the apartment to the ambulance. That is just sick.

I saw a picture of Michelle Williams as she arrived at an airport. You can clearly see how much emotional pain she is in, but they still took pictures.
Paparazzi are really the lowest of the low, and I refuse to read those silly gossip mags because of them.
People who answer a poilte and cheery 'hello!' with an 'I'm just looking!'. I don't care if they're just looking, the outline of my job states that I must greet them. Besides, it's just rude to reply that way.

There is this African American newscaster with vitiligo who wrote a book called- Turning White. When someone learned of his condition, that person said something along the lines of "That God was blessing him because he was now white". People like that should go the special hell.
Though I'm not religous: people who don't understand, severely contradict and severely misinterpret their own religous texts and rules belong in the special hell.
People who ask their partners to hide the age difference between the two of you belong there as well.
The people who pick up my trash and don't put the trash bin back where I keep it. Instead they leave it out in the road for the whole world to have to swerve around.
The Club.live.com people in charge of sending out your prizes. Stupid monkeys in their mail room must have lost my stuff.

Yeah this reminds me of a group of people who definatly deserve their own little hell. Westboro Baptist Church. They actually protested at heath ledgers funeral because he played as a homosexual. you can check them out at godhatesfags.com
Anyone who walks into a school, church, federal building or any other populated area and starts gunning down people definitely deserves their own little special hell.

People who don't know the meaning of personal hygiene. Seriously, how hard is it? Showering, brushing your teeth, using deodorant, what is so hard?! I really don't want to have to smell the fresh stench of someone's B.O. That's just gross.
I have to agree with the people who bring guns into schools and gun people down, and anyone who said that God killed Heath Ledger for playing a homosexual all deserve their own special hell. Murdering people is just beyond my comprehension, and the God killing Heath Ledger thing is just downright offensive.

Speaking of gross things: people who spit on the ground (mostly men in my experience).
People who make gross generalisations.
-Any lager-swilling skinhead who starts a sentence with the words 'immigrants' and 'jobs' in.
People who assume that short hair and drinking lager means you are not entitled to have an opinion of immigration. (Not that I agree with such views, but I think everyone is entitled to an opinion, regardless of hair length and beverage choice).
People who judge books by their covers.
People who read the magazines populated by paparazzi pictures and then complain about the paparazzi.
Spoilers.
People who assume they know you when in fact they have no idea whatsoever about who you really are.

Never understood that saying myself. If i'm browsing for a book i'll always go by the information on the cover; author, title, blurb on the back.

And people who know obviously who you are when you don't have a clue who they are. Alright I know it's my bad and hell is probably a little harsh but trying to steer the conversation round to identity without putting your foot in it is agony.

Don't judge a book by its cover means don't judge it by what is on the front cover..meaning the art, or lack there of. Don't judge someone or something just by its outward appearances. Look deeper at who or what it actually is then make your judgement...if you must judge.
Another group of people who belong in the special hell, are those that hold up lines in their cars because they are waiting for someone to pull out of a parking space so they can get that space. Lazy people. And people who can't park in mall parking spaces. You must park right or there are less spaces and its hard to get out of your car.

When it comes to the metaphor, and we're meaning "person" by "book", I totally agree. However, when it comes to actual books, I find that the cover art can often be a good indicator of what it's going to be like, as the art is often chosen to match the subject and tone of the book. :D
Sorry I thought it was obvious that I was using don't judge a book by it's cover as a metaphor, especially given my previous comment. My mistake, won't happen again.
Maybe I belong in the special hell for the assumption. People who assume too much definitely belong there.

No i undestood the metaphor just don't really think it's understand why we use it, thats all.
Banks that only have one or two tellers on duty on a weekday between 12 and 2 thus making it almost impossible to nip out in your lunch break and sort out your banking.

Actually I'd be quite content if all my books had no art on the cover. Just hard cover books with the name of the book and author printed on the binding. I've literally read hundreds upon hundreds of books since I was little, and have come to find that interesting cover art does not guarantee a good read.

Granted (hey, I have short hair and drink lager too!), but I was using that shock horror! moste evile known as a generalisation, for your average BNP lout. Not that there aren't any long haired, wine drinking extremists out there, but the lookalikes of the cast from This Is England and American History X evoke more imagery of racist thuggery to me.
And to add to the Special Hell: the bar staff behind the 02. I literally laughed out loud when they asked £9 for a double mixer and coke. What's in it, crushed diamonds? Oh, and also, people who steal MY milk from the fridge, despite it clearly being labelled to the point of Kathy-ness. *Glares*
Sally Kern. Recently she said homosexuality is a bigger threat than terrorism and Islam, which is also equally offensive since not everyone who's a member of the Islamic religion is a terrorist. Also, to top things off, one of her sons is gay and she's apparently disowned him. She's a real sweetheart. :bleh:

I was going to say that! But also add that to say that politics is also not just in government. How you relate to another person, or even just about anything, can be seen in political terms. Politics is the master science. It is in everything! We as humans breathe it.
There should be a special hell for those in certain nations that decide that because another nation does not have the same system of government as you, that that nation needs "salvation". Democracy is cool and all, but it is not always for everyone. If the nation is functioning well without it and there isn't a great violation of very basic civil liberties then there is no issue. Besides, Socretes, Plato and Aristotle made such good arguements against democracy ;)
I very much agree with you on Democracy. If you ask me Democracy is like hitting the Big Red button that reprensents the self destruct sequence xD. Socrates made one of the Best arguments imo =D

I found this quote from Madeleine Albright on a blog, and after the discussion of feminism in a Firefly thread, it popped into my mind for this thread:
"There is a special place in hell for women who don’t help other women"
Now my mind is boggling at the thought of where you'd put a woman who didn't help other women while talking at the theatre :D
Lawyer who screws up your case against child molesting ******* so the judge has to throw it out of court on a technicality then write to you saying "sorry, if it helps you were a excellent witness"
NO it doesnt bloody help! You put me and 3 others through hell for nearly two years and because you couldn't look at your calender it was all for nothing! So you deserve a place in special hell right beside that swine!

I agree! I just find the whole thing so bloody stupid. I can't think of the times I've watched a Btvs vid on Youtube and seen comments underneath such as "I really want to see this show I'm going to buy the boxsets ect." Fox are getting promotion for their shows for FREE! What kind of morons would try and eliminate a chance to make more money?
I get it if we were claiming the show was ours, but we don't. We just make vids because we appreciate a show, they're just terrible.
And what's more annoying is that I don't have a copy of my vid anywhere. I deleted it on my comp so I had more room to make new vids as I work from a laptop and it doesn't have a lot of memory. So it's gone forever now, I hope you still have a copy of yours.
