Shit That Annoys Me
Just making a list ...
- Fruit smoothies.
- People who cannot merge in traffic. It's like a zipper. Make room in front for the other guy and traffic doesn't come to a grinding halt.
- Awards and lists of the top X or Y minority somethingorother. Segmenting out women particularly bugs me. Why would you want to be the top woman businessperson or social media influencer? Why wouldn't you want to be considered the top businessperson or social media influencer or whatever it is? You fought hard for equality and then segregate yourself off in gender-only lists. Seems dumb. And I'm not saying this is right or a popular opinion. Just mine. I know ... fuck me.
- People who carry their own pillows onto airplanes.
- The word "tart."
- Jeans with holes in them. You look like a trashy ho or a clumsy redneck.
- The underlying ego play that is being a social media blogger person. I try to stay above it, but certainly get sucked into it sometimes, too. None of us are important. Much less as important as we think we are.
- The fact that non-profits and politicians are excused from the Do Not Call List. I don't care how important your organization or cause is, I do not want you to call me.
- Anything associated with anyone named Kardashian.
- People who complain about nit-picky shit at restaurants, get what they ask for, then stiff the wait staff on the tip. I was a waiter for three weeks and learned I'm incapable of doing that job. Mostly because I wanted to kick each customer in the teeth. You can pick your own croutons out of your salad, thank you.
- Scarfs.
- Formulaic blog posts. Top 10 or 7 this, how-to that. Can we not be more creative?
- Fox News.
- People who stop and stand in the middle of an obviously busy public walkway. The dipshit in the middle of the airport concourse looking perplexingly at his boarding pass while foot traffic clogs around him is a particularly aggravating culprit. Makes me want to get down in a three point stance and go Reggie White on his ass.
- People who litter.
