• 50 Things I Hate

  Since the Rapture went by and nothing happened, I feel it's ok for me to be hater today.  So, let's roll right into it.  It's in random order because it's just too hard to prioritize 50 items.

  1. Rambling.  I really hate it when people ramble.  Just get to the point.  

  2. Smoking.   Particularly cigarettes.  They smell awful.  They make everything smell awful.  And it's unsexy.  I don't smoke and I don't wanna be around people when they're smoking.  And in terms of dating, yes, it's a deal breaker.
  3. People who don't clean up after their dog.  You give good dog owners like us a bad name.  Plus, you're dirtying the neighbourhood, you irresponsible jerk.
  4. Those who talk a big talk but have no game.  If you don't know, just say so.  Making up a story or spewing bullshit just makes you look like a douche.  
  5. Dried tangerine peel.  It goes beyond hate. I DESPISE it!  Yes, I'm Chinese.  I still hate it.
  6. Micromanagers and control freaks.  That's why I love my job (yes, that's sarcasm).
  7. Hypocrites. Everyone in their lives will have (or has) moments of hypocrisy.  That's not a big deal.  Sometimes circumstance forces us to be hypocritical.  It's the chronic hypocrites that I can't stand.
  8. Sambuca.  Licorice.  Anise.  Yah... I hate it.
  9. Drama.  Why can't people just say what they mean?  
  10. Dolls.  Those things are freaking CREEPY!! I love plush toys.  I hate dolls.
  11. Pepsi.  Obviously!
  12. Bad drivers.  You don't signal.  You cut people off.  You're discourteous.  You can't make up your mind.  You drive too slow.  That's my definition of bad drivers.
  13. Rudeness.  There are times when it's acceptable to be rude (because the other person deserved it) but in general, people these days are exceedingly more rude than they ever need to be.  It's disgusting.
  14. Gum.  I never chew gum.  Ever.
  15. Leaky boots.  Winter in the city often means cold, dirty, slushy water leaking into my boots.  It sucks.
  16. Streetcars.  They're slow, unreliable, stuffy and make me nauseous.  
  17. People who don't move back into the streetcar/bus/subway.  So damned discourteous!!
  18. Bullseye BBQ sauce.  Yes, I hate it.  Love BBQ.   But that Bullseye BBQ sauce crap is garbage.
  19. Ignorance.  If you want to express an opinion, go ahead.  It's a free country.  But if you want me to *listen* to your opinion, you'd better be informed.  Don't waste my time with your gawd-damned ignorance.
  20. People who don't sort their recyclables/compostables from their garbage.  Do your part for the environment, you lazy ass!
  21. Reality tv.  I am not entertained by watching the ridiculous boring lives of attention whores.  
  22. Bad coffee.  There is no reason for bad coffee to exist.  NONE!! You're wasting beans making bad coffee.
  23. The Boston Bruins.  They're a bunch of thugs who neither respect the sport of hockey nor understand the concept of losing with class.  The fact that their fans are ignant turds adds to this.
  24. Waste.  I hate seeing things go to waste.  Hyper-consumerism is just terrible.
  25. Aspartame.  I don't drink diet ANYTHING. 
  26. Bad grammar.  It's worse than nails on blackboards.
  27. Spandex.  The sheen is bad.  Fat men with chicken legs who insist on wearing it as they jog down my street are worse. 
  28. Over-cooked meat.  If you can't respect the prime rib and give it to me medium rare, then just bring me a salad.
  29. Dirty hair.  I can't stand it if my hair is dirty.  I also can't stand it if I can see people with dirty hair.  It's gross. WASH IT!!!
  30. Orange & chocolate.  It's a combo I never understood.  I love oranges.  I love chocolate.  But together?  BLECH!
  31. Dentists.  Just cuz (except for my friend TL's husband. JV is a good guy).
  32. American football.  I don't get it.  I don't like it.  I've watched it several times.  I've played.  Just can't get into it.
  33. Rioters.  Particular those that riot in Montreal.  You are not a real Habs fan.  You're just a drunken shit disturber taking advantage of a crowd.  
  34. Stephen Harper.  This should not need any explanation.
  35. Chaffing pants.  Of course, thinking of Stephen Harper makes me think of chaffing pants.  
  36. Nosy people.  It's none of your gawd damned business.  Stop asking!!
  37. Lack of compassion.  The world is not compassionate enough.  There are compassionate people, but as a population, people just don't give a shit about the plight of others.
  38. People who don't wait their turn.  Especially in China, where the concept of lining up is deemed ridiculous.
  39. Turkey.  I cook it at Thanksgiving and Christmas for my friends and family, but I don't eat it.  I roast a leg of lamb for me.
  40. People who are cruel to animals.  All those people who have dragged their dogs behind their trucks, beaten their pets, organized or participated in dog fighting, tortured any animals, poached on endangered species...you should have your innards ripped out one at a time and fed to a pack of feral dogs...WHILE YOU WATCH! 
  41. Trailer trash with designer bags/shoes.  WHAT THE HELL!?  Why are you not feeding your children with that money?  Why are you carrying a $3,000 Burberry bag and wearing $30 velour Wal-mart track suits?!
  42. Bad parents.  If you don't have the means or desire to properly raise children to become respectable, contributing members of society, then don't friggin' spawn.
  43. Arrogance.  You might be better than everyone else, but if you insist on making sure that everyone feels this, be sure I will knock you down several pegs and humiliate you constantly.  
  44. Tim Horton's sandwiches.  They're disgusting.  All of them.  And ever since I experienced the phenomenon that is Corner Bakery, I have refused to eat sandwiches from Tim Horton's. 
  45. Paper cuts.  I'd rather have a sprained wrist.
  46. The destruction of music.  Yeah, I mean you, Britney Spears, Justin Beiber and Rebecca Black.  Mozart and Beethoven are so glad to be dead so that they don't have to listen to you!
  47. Screaming children.  Parents, make them stop.  It's not cute.  And we're not all as sleep deprived as you that we don't notice.  If you bring your kids out amongst strangers, don't let them scream their lungs out.
  48. Toyota Corollas and Honda Civics.
  49. Bugs.  All bugs.  I hate bugs.
  50. Horror movies.  There's enough scary shit in this world.  I don't need graphic images to scare the shit out of myself "for fun."
