5 things I HATE

Categories:

Uncategorized

I know I’m generally rather upbeat on the blog, but in an effort to “keep it real,” I’ve gotta tell ya. Today really sucked. I’m just letting you know not to expect your everyday happy-go-lucky Shannon. You’ve been warned. I’m in angry-mode. Seriously, it’s ok to click away (although I’ll secretly judge you for it).

Anyone still out there?

2 People (most likely my Mom and the Mister)? Great, at least now I know who my true friends are ;)

Due to my terrible mood, I thought it might be fun to list 5 things I’m currently HATING. Ya know, just to bring all of you down with me ;)

1.) Leggings with granny panties

Ladies (or men), it looks like you are wearing a diaper. Invest in a thong.

2.) American Idol

Ever heard the saying quit while you’re ahead? Apparently FOX did not receive the memo.

3.) Fishers

You know, those people on facebook/twitter/etc. who say things like “WORST DAY EVER!”, “such great news,” or other cryptic sayings and quotes that give us no indication of what you are talking about. If you post something like this, I immediately assume you are begging for attention and looking for people to say “what happened?!” while showering you with energy and care. Me? I delete you from my feed or friend list and refer to you as a “fisher.” 

4.) People who don’t flush the toilet.

Seriously? It occurs almost daily. If you leave something brown, please make sure it goes down. The fact that any woman would walk away from a floating turd, used tampon or soiled toilet paper simply revolts me. These women should be identified as “offenders” and dealt with accordingly – i.e. all should receive swirly’s.

5.) I must not be in THAT bad of a mood, because I cannot think of anything else. Oh yea, I know — I hate people who VANDALIZE cars. I really hate them a lot.

And what do ya know, I’m already feeling better! Anyone else care to join me? Leave me a comment letting me know what you hate right this very instant — don’t be shy!

I promise next post I’ll be back to my chipper, enthusiastic, oh-so-loveable self! In fact, I’ll be sharing my Great Steak Challenge recipe! You won’t want to miss it ;)

    I hate people who walk three-wide down an aisle or on the sidewalk…um hello?? The rest of us need space to walk too. You deserve a little hipcheck as I walk by.

    I think it’s definitely OK to admit the things we hate – let it out! I an totally with you on the FB or Twitter “fishers”. Don’t post crap like that just for sympathy. I’m also with you on AI – never watch it. Actually, I hate reality tv shows. I also hate it when coworkers cut their nails at work – not just fixing a torn nail, but full on grooming.

    Sorry for the bad day!

    I personally HATE leggings as pants. I’m cool as long as your top covers your vajay, but if I can see camel you’re dead to me.

    I hate people that don’t give up their seats on the subway for pregnant women or people with disabilities. How heartless!

    Haha I actually hate thongs! I find them really uncomfortable and they are bad for you! Not to be too gross, but they are a bacterial super-highway.

    On that note, I do think that leggings should always be worn with a bum covering top unless you’re lounging around the house or working out. :)

    So 4 other things I hate:
    Canoeing (tubing is so much less stressful!)
    Raisins
    Celery
    Work related stress (which I’m up to my ears in today).

    Right there with you on the fishers. Either tell us your news or don’t, but stop the whining (or bragging) and fricking grow up!

    And one of my pet peeves – people who don’t wash their hands after using the bathroom. I have had guys actually talk to me AT THE URINAL (another pet peeve, but one I can overlook) and then turn and leave. Dude, I definitely saw you handle your junk, why are you now leaving without even pretending to use the sink?

    Oh, and I also hate automatic sinks. Nice in theory, but they NEVER work!

    I hate that I don’t have that dog on my lap right now, giving me lots of puppy kisses! Too cute!

    After reading your comments, I thought of something. I HATE it when people leave their shopping carts in the middle of the isle, while they’re off looking at something! Dude, get your cart out of my way!! :D

    Hilarious that you wrote this post today, as I have a notecard for an upcoming post for “things I hate.” I must be in a similar mood…

    The FISHER thing on FB is driving me nuts. And because it’s my MOTHER, I have nowhere to vent about it. Like, seriously, “same shit, different day” is such a COP OUT. If you’re “shit” is the “same,” then do something to freaking change it! Ahem. /vent.

    Along with those fishers are: people on twitter who tweet his/her horoscopes and those who use “IMO/IMHO” before posting/tweeting/status-updating. I’ll have more on my blog later. :)

    That is all. (Also, sorry about the car — that is uber-sucky)

    I hate having appointments at the hospital, and then ending up spending 4 hours waiting for a max. total of 45 mins with the staff (doctors and nurses).

    Currently I’m not liking people who listen to headphones so loud that everyone around them can hear what they are listening too!!!!!

    I also don’t like when people clip finger nails at work. Grooming should take place at home.

    This was great. I like angry Shannon!

    And I totally agree with you about everything! I once walked into my ex boyfriends bathroom and he DID NOT FLUSH and it was DISGUSTING!

    I hate when people use “big words” when they really don’t need to. Also, I hate mosquitoes. I have 30 bites! 30! Not. cool.

    it’s very cathartic to spell out what you don’t like – no-one has to like everything and it’s more honest and real to say it like you do. Good for you !

    Agreed.

    I hate when people don’t use their turn signals….I am on a bike, people!!

    I also hate ALL the noise my new neighbors are making….walk quieter!

    Lastly, I hate cleaning peanut butter off a knife. Wet peanut butter = disgusting.

    love this post!!
    Currently hating that my boyfriend did not shave today. For some dumb reason, it really pissed me off. He has a nice razor (gift from me) and still finds excuses to not shave. I shave my goddamn legs and armpits practically daily, so wtf?!

    Also hating on..religion. such bullshit, all of it. grow up, people.

    Hating on being called off from work (yay, the day off), and then getting called back in 2 hours later (but i didn’t have to go, it turned out)…pretty much hating the damn system..
    and number one…MONEY. F*CK MONEY!!

    ALSO, cantaloupe. Listen, I don’t hate on fruits and veggies, but cantaloupe sucks. It smells like feet and it always ruins every damn fruit salad. ugh.
    Thanks for letting me rant!!
