I hate peeing. It's so inconvenient! I just want to go to bed because I'm cold and tired, but noooooo, my bladder demands I get up and relieve it. Grr.

Oh, and I also hate close-ups of mouths like in commercials and stuff. I have to look away from the TV because it bothers me so much.

People who drive shoeboxes of cars yet CAN'T PARK BETWEEN THE FUCKING LINES!

Seriouly its not that hard!! the bay is big...you are small...even if your slightly off center its ok but NO RIGHT ON THE FUCKING LINE with a 4WD monster in the other bay so if you have to park there you will end up with two shades of paint on either door. I've considered leaving notes it shits me that much.

Silly things?

I don't know if it's silly, but I'm a bit of a grammar Nazi.. or at least, a spelling one.
I hate seeing people write "ur", or "I would of", or misspelling basic words.
It drives me buggy.

It's not a "tomb" (pronounced like "tooth"), it's a "tome" (pronounced like "home").
It's "I would HAVE", not "I would of".

There/they're/their... another one that drives me nutso.
It doesn't take all that much effort to learn how to spell some of the more common "tricky" words.

I guess I am simply too stuck up and constipated for this world. I keep expecting others to make at least a semblance of an effort to improve themselves.

is that "silly"? or a bit beyond that point?

No, it's not just you. Not at all. The "would of" or "could of", etc. drives me absolutely insane! We should have learned this in like...third grade!!! When you hear something that sounds like "would of", it is actually a contraction of "would" and "have" = "would've". I mean, "of" makes no sense! None! *rips hair out* I just try to keep my rage inside when I see it, because I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings. But yes, I cringe...every...single...time.

http://thewritepractice.com/couldve-wou ... ion-fight/

:lol:

Edit: Along with they're/their/there, I also see a lot of "your" taking the place of "you're", and infrequently, people using "you're" instead of "your". One that always makes me scratch my head is when people mix up "our" and "are". I mean, how? How???

So if you're too stuck-up and "constipated" (I giggled) for this world, then so am I, Sukurachi, so am I. Gah, that's another one! "Then" and "than" get mixed up all the time! Also, "its" and "it's": "its" = possessive ("Its ears are floppy"); "it's" = contraction of "it" and "is" ("It's an earless freak").

I could go on and on. I must stop now.

:cry:

1. Long Hair - Really, it's more of a love/hate relationship; I love possessing long, silken tresses but I hate the constant upkeep that's required. I'd get a haircut but I'd rather spend the money on more important things.

2. Knees - Not sexy. Especially mine. I hate them.

3. Texting - I prefer to talk to people whether it's in person or over the phone. I can communicate a lot more efficiently speaking to someone than I can typing it all out. Texting just seems so impersonal and lazy.

4. Socks & Shoes - Don't get me wrong! I love a pair of cute shoes as much as the next girl but I hate the feeling of having my feet confined. If I'm not at work or outside somewhere, I'm at home chillaxin' with my bare feet.

1. Socks and shoes - I hate them with a passion when I have to wear them for long trips. My right foot has a habit of cramping, and it drives me MAD.

2. The phrase 'you should' - This has always gotten on my nerves when people say this to me, it just sounds so rude to me.

3. The phrase 'you'll like him/her/it/whatever' - Um, don't assume that I'll like something or someone, please. You're not me, so you have no clue that I'll like someone or something. Thank you.

4. Pointing - Good god, this really pisses me off. I utterly DESPISE it when somebody points at me and I always think about snapping their stupid finger in half because I hate it THAT MUCH ARGH.

Me too! Also along the pronunciation lines: people who pronounce "hearth" as "hurth". What, you've never heard of a fire hearth? I know we don't have a lot of fireplaces these days, but still... Another idiotic one I'm seeing a lot lately is "his" when they mean "he's". "His going to the party." That's not poor spelling, you just don't know your own language.

I'm serious, friends, you can totally stop digging through the trash pit to find things to be angry about! You don't need to actively search things out to be pissed about!

In other words, please shut your stupid face! I'm trying to be positive over here.

...Also I seriously hate waking up with a stuffy nose. Oof, makes me just want to go back to bed.

I thought of another.

I hate most clothes.


I can't stand heavy clothes, shirts with sleeves, tight clothes, tough/rough clothing, Sweaters (especially the ones with high necks),
and basically socks. I also hate wearing jewelry, like rings, bracelets and necklaces for the same reason.

I don't like things touching my arms, legs or neck. Especially if it's tight or scratchy.
It makes me feel like going berserker.

A weird thing about me. Yeah... lol

Yes, I am quite...passionate...about grammar and such. I try to keep the beast caged, but sometimes I just let loose. Sorry you all had to see that. :lol:

You sound exactly like my husband. Funny thing is, I'm just the opposite. I like lots of layered clothes, it's like a wearable security blanket!

Bahaha! Oh, I thought that was about mine for some reason. I haven't been all there today. This dang shingles virus is keeping me up and I'm a little sleep-deprived. :lol: Ignore me!
