So here's a short hate list:
1. People who write without the "g" in their present continuous verbs. For example, I love jammin and smokin and hangin out with my friends.
2. People who speak without the "g" in their present continious verbs. (Say the example sentence from #1 out loud to yourself and then smack yourself for tAlKiN like that.)
3. Internet "writers" who can't spell anything. SPELL CHECK. Also, please get your homophones right. (There's a difference between shear and sheer. Thanks.) If it's because you were rushing, then don't publish it until you've checked your work. You'll just sound like an idiot. But you probably sound like an idiot anyway because you're writing about druids and people who are clairvoyant and have purple-red eyes. (Shut up, don't mention my D&D character.) I'm not perfect which is why I do reread things that I want to post publicly. In fact, I'll probably find one or two things wrong with this entry before I post it. This peeve is probably one of the reasons I hardly ever write anything anywhere.
4. People who laugh like children. There's nothing more chilling than someone over 25 gurgling like a baby. Enough said.
5. Hippies. I encounter many hippies because sociology is a hippie magnet. These hippies "wow" the rest of the class with their selective and outdated hippie information while the professor tells them they're wrong and shut up. Said hippies may sometimes preface their comments in class with the phrases "I may be wrong..." and "Tell me if I'm getting too philosophical..." YOU ARE COMPLETELY WRONG AND ALWAYS TOO PHILOSOPHICAL. Wipe that self satisfied look off your face, hippie.
6. Most of the people that live in my residence hall. This is for a different post.
Hm. Well, I guess that's it for now. Just a few things that bugged me. I'm probably not really even this angry. Anger paints a terrible portrait.
On a completely different topic, I love ants. Ants have now risen to the top of my "Cool Animals" list along with moose and crocodiles. I think ants might be number 1.
Don't hold your breath but there may be more updates coming soon. With less bitching and more...well, more of something else.-Calamity Jane
