Nope, I Still Don't Like It
Things that are an irritation to me.
- Expensive social reform programs that accomplish no reform at all.
- Flat Pillows.
- 12 year old girls having babies.
- Women who wear next to nothing and get mad when you stare. You give up your rights to be mad when you wear a skirt that shows your underwear and tops that barely cover your raisins.
- Water in my basement.
- Not allowing drug testing for welfare recipients. A portion of my check goes to welfare and I have to get drug tested (not really, just making a point).
- Having to push "1" for English.
- Wood ticks and mosquitoes
- Never had a job, never plans to work, 4 kids, on welfare and pregnant.
- Cars with stereos that shake my windows when they drive by.
- A war waged supposedly for the oil but gas prices continue to climb?
- Slow computers.
- Misbehaved or spoiled rotten kids
- How it's accepted to promote and encourage "alternate lifestyles" but not allow "religious" discussions in the same circle. Free speech is free speech regardless of your beliefs.
- Compact cars that only get 30 MPG.
- People who don't vote but loudly complain about the current state of affairs.
- Compulsive text messaging.
- Bartenders who use their position to push their propaganda.
- Chunks of stuff sticking to the bottom of my feet.
- A sticky table or bar top.
What are yours?

People who speed up when I try to go around them on the interstate, but then slow down again when I start to pull back in behind them. (That one REALLY bothers me - I have a fairly long commute each day.)
When I just washed my car and then get sprayed with dust by oncoming traffic (I live on a gravel road.)
Vegetarians who wear leather or who smoke.
Abortion rights advocates that are against the death penalty.
@Steve - I don't get the "vegetaians who smoke" concept. I get the Veggies wearing leather though.
The word "What?"
People. All of them :p
...OH! And freakin' word verifications to post a damn comment!
1. Having strangers ask me if I speak Spanish. Just because I have dark hair does not mean I HABLA.
2. Fluffy Pillows.
3. Mushrooms.
4. Parents who say they are going to discipline a kid and then don't.
5. Cell phones, babies, and talkers in the movie theaters.
6. Jeb Bush/Charlie Crist
7. Hurricanes
When somebody says "radical" instead of "the square root of" or "the cube root of."
Also, when a person has two equal signs in the same line when simplifying or solving something, it makes me cringe.
For instance, if somebody did (20x+5)/5 = 5(4x+1)/5 = 4x+1 all on the same line I would freak out and worry over it.
And when somebody doesn't put arrows on their graphs when they should, or label them at all.
Although all of this seems trivial compared to everything else...
@pAPPAGIORGIO - Yeah. LOL, I do need to switch to wordpress don't I. Even if you check the "name/URL" option and not use a Google ID, you still have to fill in the captcha?
Yes...Yes you do :p
- When people say "I'm just sayin'..." to mean "no offense"
- Using the door handle to get out of a men's restroom...wash your hand folks...
- Health care costs
- Confusing correlation and causation
- The Love Shack by the B52's...it's like nails across a chalkboard
- Charities who don't keep administrative costs low
- People who answer their cell phones during business meetings
- Rabbits...next to man they quite possibly the most devious animals on the planet
- Surly service workers
- The unwillingness to ask "why" when problem solving
- Bicycle seats (Huffy Violator, Schwin Intruder)
- A sense entitlement and a chip on your shoulder
- People who appear to be unable to assess risk
@eric - I think that is a better list than mine. You want a job at casa del Pappa?
Well done sir. It's funny my wife and I were just arguing about the B-52's and that very song last night. It was whether or not to include it on a 80's mix CD. Hmmmmm I am not going to show her this comment.
