Annoyathon!

I'm starting a list of shit that annoys the piss out of me...

1. calling your boyfriend "the boy"
2. calling Justin Beiber "the Beibs"
3. "make me a sandwich" jokes, and other tired worn-out sexist jokes.
4. People who burp out loud, don't cover their mouths, and then say excuse me in a way that makes it seem like they think it's funny or cute. It's gross. It's definitely not cute. and I shudder and die a little inside every time it happens.
5. People who completely neglect spellcheck for EVERY WORD. everything is spelled wrong... how do people read it? I'll never know.
6. Four Square. It never knows where I am.
7. Reality TV. I'm over it. It's gotten completely dull watching "People Just Like You in Everyday Situations," "People Just Like You in Extreme Situations," and "People who's everyday life makes you glad yours is normal."
8. People who think their above or the exception to the rules.
9. People who are never on time. and usually "late" means, like, 40 minutes late.
10. Fake designer purses. I mean, either get one, or don't. It's like, "I want to look rich and fashionable, but I'm broke." Why would you want to look rich? Then people assume you have money, and I can think of many situations where that is just going to make you more broke. Prime example: When buying something negotiable.
11. Being a bitch to strangers with the excuse "I don't know them. What do I care?" someone said exactly those words to me to night, and I'm just thinking, "What do you care? really? You're only making the world a slightly more awful place to be, no big. What would it kill you to just be decent to other people?"
12. When people repeat the same point 5 times in a story... it makes me feel like you think I'm too stupid to get it the first 4 times.
13. People who force their superstitions on you. My sister threatened to stop the car until I agreed to lift my feet over railroad tracks. Unbelievable.
14. People who say they started something random and stupid. Big example, the phrase (everyone used in HS) "I'm not saying, I'm just saying." Way too many people claimed that phrase to be coined by themselves. No one gives a shit even if it was.
15. Girls who are all empowered and "fuck men, I don't need them. People in relationships are stupid. I've got the right idea by being single." only when they are single, and then jump at the chance to be in a relationship and saying, "Oh, I'm such a fool. He completely whisked me off my feminist feet, and made me realize why romance is the best." only to go right back to the beginning when she gets dumped. If you're going to claim a stance, have the dignity to stand by it. You can't say you're "decidedly single" if you'd date any guy who'd ask.
16. Hypocrites. I am one, so yeah, I annoy myself.
17. People who can't back up/support their opinions, but refuse to open their minds to others regardless... I. hate. that. Especially when people say things like, "Well, I don't personally know the explanation for that, but I know that there is one." Bullshit. What a bullshit response, because you can't argue with "I don't know, but I'm right!"



In other news... went to Wooden Nickle for dinner last night, there special was "smothered quail" ... ew. I imagine it probably tastes like duck, but... I've never had duck or quail, so I'm really just making wild assumptions based on very little.
