Things I hate Part Eleventy Bazillion

[cobl04]

il passato remoto

 

[mysterious_jen]

i hate that i bit of my tooth broke off and i had to go to the dentist .
thankfully he was mercifully quick , cheap and painless this time but it was enough to get that anxiety going .

 

[MrsSpringsteen]

I hate it when I have to bite my tongue when my mother makes certain statements..like when she says she wants to send a family member overseas a small check "even though I don't have extra money to spare"..when she asks me to shred her bank statements (that she obsessively checks 5 or 10 times a day online, I don't know) and I know for a fact that she has had up to 5 grand or more in her checking/debit account and that even with her bill paying she does have that amount of extra. It's as if she has to cling to that not having enough money thing, for whatever reasons. I sure wish I had that kind of extra. She is generous with me so it has nothing to do with that.

Sorry, just had to rant somehow about that or I might go all Slater

 

[I Move in Mysterious Ways]

Thank you, Rich. That's so kind of you.


(Hopefully, you won't regret the offer you've extended -- as I call you at 2:44 a.m.: a crying, sobbing, sniveling, blathering, mucus-y mess! )

As long as you don't mind the fact that I'll likely sound like a heavily sedated Ron Wood at that hour . . .

 

[Purplereign]

Well, in that case . . .

I hate hearing the cold, hard truth from friends that care: I'm sorry, honey, but he just wasn't that into you.

Ugh. I LOATHE that damn phrase!

(And I hate even more that it's true; he wasn't. )

. . . I swear Fitz, I'm sharpening the fuzzy end of the lollipop as fast as I can and I'm gonna come and poke a few peeps in the eye

il passato remoto

well, if you drop it in your pasta sauce it ain't gonna work

. . . and yes, I do actually remember that it's got something to do with a weird language convention or tense right?

< sleeplessness

 

[BonosLil'Pal94]

Waking up at 2:45 PM.......and yet, I love it as well.......

how late did you stay up?

 

[ryancoke71]

That will be a definite hate when you have to get up for school, and you are used to sleeping in!

 

[BonosLil'Pal94]

I got in bed around 1, but I couldn't fall asleep until about 2. But for the past week I've been going to sleep around 2-3, so obviously I was going to have some trouble falling asleep at 1

yes it's the distant, historical, academic past in italian. nearly every verb is irregular, and it's hard enough to recognise, let alone even use

 

[beegee]

I hate that there's never a "New Fiona Apple Album" thread in Bang & Clatter.

Is there a new Fiona album coming out soon?

that sentence just hurt my head

good luck . . .

 

[I Move in Mysterious Ways]

This is a delayed rant, but I can't stand watching TV with my inlaws. They stayed at our house recently for 4 weeks, and I had to leave the room every time they turned the TV on.

My father in law has this inexplicable habit of hitting the mute button every time a commercial comes on. What the hell is that?! Are you trying to stick it to the advertisers? Wouldn't flipping the channels be the better idea instead of this automatic awkward silence?

My mother in law has to comment roughly every 5 - 10 seconds, and she laughs inappropriately at EVERYTHING (yeah, Casino Royale was pretty damn funny ). It's like she's on a nervous first date.

They're nice people for the most part (though they said and did plenty to piss me off while they were here), but I was thrilled when they left.

 

[Total U2 Nut]

Dreamweaver makes me so stabby, I despise it

 

[MrPryck2U]

I dont mind that from people once in a while. Everyone should be able to vent here and there. However, there's the occasional venting to your friends, and then there's the woe is me crap EVERY DAY. That makes me want to stab my eyes out with a hot spork.

Yes, I have one friend who is an absolute drama queen junkie. She posts a "woe is me" update at least 3 times a day. I did actually block her posts, but a couple of times I'd see her somewhere and she'd ask if I read her update about (insert incident here) and if I had read it yet. I didn't want to tell her that I blocked her posts because they were insane and/or annoying. So I unblocked her and now if she has a wacky post, I post a funny comment.


Which brings me to something else I really hate:

Drama queens

These people are attention whores obviously. Every move in their life seems to be fuckin agony for whatever reason. They gotta go.

Was it Mark Twain that said something like, "Guests and fish start to smell after three days"?

 

[kafrun]

And I totally understand. Some people come to facebook to vent to their friends, and being that I have a few friends like that... I'm glad they share rather trying to hold their emotions in.

Fair enough, but if a person's only outlet for venting their emotions is Facebook, they've got some things in their life they need to reassess.

or the cryptic status. Example: "ugh...so over it" That bugs me so much, I won't ask, even if I really want to know.

Have been guilty of this a time or two but I don't get people who do it all the time. Speak up or shut up. For me, I like to keep my posts silly and light-hearted and keep the other stuff private.. but sometimes you feel the urge to say something without getting all the way into it, I guess.

or someone who can never, ever say anything nice. They respond to EVERYTHING with sarcasm or just plain rudeness. And to them, it's okay as long as they add "jk" to the end of the comment.

Can't stand that attitude.

Ridic. We all have crap to deal with, but sometimes you see that some people are looking for the bad, while others are finding the good.

You should have smelled the stench after 4 weeks.

If soon means most likely never

ugh, haaaaaate. i do this if i'm by myself, but i sure as hell wouldn't do that around guests. making the stupid idle conversation during commercials is so irritating. especially because then you better stfu when the show's back on, which makes it even more awkward.

I hope everything works out!

LOL, maybe it's a regional thing. I see you're from NZ. My inlaws are from Australia Honestly, I'd NEVER seen anyone do that before I met them.

 

[RedRocksU2]

I've had this experience as well.
The way I took care of this, was by pressing the pause button on my TiVo and once they noticed that nothing was playing on the tv, they would shut up.
