Things that annoy me
June 22, 2009

Jon and Kate Plus 8 - can somebody please explain her hair to me?
kategosselin_hair.jpg

People who say verse instead of versus when denoting a comparison of two subjects. Totally different meanings by the way.... one is a preposition, the other is not.

People who give unpolished presentations and every other word is, "Um".....and we went to Um, and the results for that campaign were Um....."

Windows Vista!@!@#!@

When it takes a month to get an appointment with your doctor and when you finally arrive there on time, you have to sit in the waiting room for an hour.

Burning the roof of your mouth on hot pizza.

Ice cream headaches.

When all the light bulbs in the house blow at once.

Everything delicious and fun in life is bad for you.

Dashboard warning lights that come on unexpectedly.

Getting a flat tire only to discover the spare is flat too.

Bad hair days.

Overdone plastic surgery, think boobs that look like basketballs slammed under the skin and big puffy lips that look like they totally don't belong on that face.

People who have to make it all about them.

Pop ups that get by your pop up blocker.

Calling customer service departments that outsource their reps to another country and you can't understand a word they say.

People who are not mentally challenged but still feel the need to talk like Billy Bob Thorton from Slingblade, "Ah like french fried pur'taters, mmm hmmm".

Romantic comedies containing any of the following actors: Hugh Grant, Sandra Bullock, Ryan Reynolds, Richard Gere, Kate Hudson, Matthew McConaughey.

Shirt labels that itch the nape of your neck or side of your hip.

Brown nosers.

Vegetarians who wear leather handbags and shoes...

When your cable bill increases $40.00 without warning and you have to get on the phone with customer service to get a new 6 month "promotion".

Renting a DVD only to find out its on television that night.

Celebrities who complain how difficult it is to be rich and famous.

That more people can quote cheesy one liners from Animal House than Shakespeare.

Drivers who pull out in front of you and cut you off only to drive 25 miles an hour like they are on a scenic Sunday drive.

When the sun doesn't come out for a month.

Office politics.

Talking to someone with an incredibly short attention span.

Backhanded compliments.

When the phone rings in the middle of dinner.

Paying $7.95 a month for an unlisted phone number and STILL ending up on some sleazy telemarketing list.

The entire cast of the new Beverly Hills 90210.

When half the cork stays in the bottle.

When your delicious cold cut combo grinder with oil and vinegar leaks all over your lap.

When you're damned if you do and damned if you don't.

When you're the last to know.

what really annoys me are people who say "piture" instead of "picture," they omit the
"c"! it drives me friggin' wild! also, since we live a state over from illinois, i hear all the hilljacks saying illinoizzzzzzzzzz - they ALWAYS say it with the "s" on the end. It's not pronounced illinoizzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, it's pronounced illinoi!

oh, i have a long list! a LONG, LONG list of things that bug me!

dang girl, even if sandra bullock annoys you, the proposal is a great summer flick. she has a rockin' bod in that movie, looks great for almost mid 40's... it's so funny, the theater was packed friday night and people were just cracking up it was so funny.

oh, i thought of another thing, people who ask me if the M&M's are
"teacup" yorkies. there is no such thing as a teacup yorkie, there are, however, unscrupulous breeders who market them as such, because they have little 2 or 3 pound dogs and want to get big bucks for them.

and, and, and, and........

yea.... what is up with Kate's hair...she can afford a decent haircut!

 

 

Janesca commented June 22, 2009 9:03 PM

You forgot loud chewers! I hate that! Chew with your mouth closed!!

 

 

Lori commented June 22, 2009 9:32 PM

Oh yea or how about adults chewing with their mouth open

 

 

Lex commented June 23, 2009 11:39 AM

Yes yes I agree! Or people that stand right on you when you are in line at the grocery store! Or people that don't blow their nose but just snort. Gah.

Yea Kate's hair... not so much.
I only watched 2 episodes of 90210... after that one girl came to school in short short and thigh high boots.. hooker much?

People that tell me my dog's name doesn't suit her and that if she were her dog, she would have named her something else. That one got a bit ugly.

 

 

Rob commented June 23, 2009 5:08 PM

aw, come on....doing the Sling Blade voice is fun...

but next time someone does, just say

"You ought not talk thata way...you just a boy, mmmhmmm"

it must be a guy thing though, most women you mention the movie to
haven't even seen it..

 

 

Lori commented June 23, 2009 5:12 PM

Dude I totally love Slingblade and quote the one liners myself.... I was referring to redneck types in real life (who probably never saw the film) but talk that way all the time..

I hate it when people tell me how ugly Mr. Pups is. He's not ugly. He's the most handsome pug that ever walked the face of the earth. I don't go around telling people how ugly their kids are!
Some people have no clue!

 

 

Amber commented June 23, 2009 9:00 PM

Oh and they need to take Jon & Kate off TV. I hate her hair and their show is boring.

Oh yea! I used to get that when I had Pugsley and it would infuriate me….that doesn't go on my list of things that annoy me. That goes on my list of things that piss me right the f*ck off!

Couldn't agree more! TLC needs to pull the plug on that STAT. It's not only boring as sin....it's a gross exploitation of innocent children.

And the hair makes her look like Woodstock on ritalin.

 

 

Sophie, Dixie & Harley commented June 24, 2009 10:58 AM

Pug mom here- I agree with you on prettttty much everything! I think Kate's hair is the new reverse mullet: business in the back, party on the... side?

I am struggling against Vista right now by the way. MAC person all the way at home.

I also hate when people misuse then (going to the store THAN the library!) or lose (I would late to LOOSE all that weight so slowly).

I had a coworker who used to be dumb as rocks with sayings that should be commonplace. For example "yes it has been a real world-wind experience." WHIRLWIND. WHIRLWINDDDDDDDD YOU STUPID BLONDE IDIOT!

Phew. Glad we had this little chat!
