10 Things I Hate

I HATE...

1. Peppermint patties
2. The beach and anything involving getting in a body of water that doesn't have chlorine in it.
3. It's a Wonderful Life (movie)
4. 95% of the Beatles catalog
5. Horror movies
6. The SyFy Channel for canceling Farscape and for changing the spelling of their name because now I can't even take them seriously.
7. The fact that SyFy broadcasts wrestling
8. Whoever is responsible for the cancellation of Stargate: Atlantis
9. Locked fic entries on LJ though I do know why some people lock their LJ's down because fandom in general is full of sorry, no good, horrible bitches. (well maybe not FULL but it certainly feels like it sometimes)
10. The woman who lives down the street from me who drives the BMW. I don't hate her for the BMW because I don't even really like BMWs but I will say this. If you're going to drive a 50,000 dollar car then you need to DRIVE it and otherwise you need to park that shit in the driveway and let it look pretty instead.

1. that my parents and grandparents are getting old and I have to watch.
2. that I lost my stepdad and my grandfather within two years of each other.
3. That my husband's psychologist told him to not work and not go to school right now.
4. People who think because they are (insert something here) they are entitled to all kinds of sh*t.
5. That Apple valued sales above customer service and I don't work for them anymore. I LOVED that job, I love the products and I loved the customers.
6. Cigarettes. I have allergy induced asthma and cigarettes are my trigger.
7. (btw I know both those words...) Leet speak. ugh. I admit I use texting short cuts sometimes because it's faster but I don't make a habit of it.
8. Fandom people who pick on others to make themselves feel better.
9. That eating well costs more money, yeah.
10. My husband has just gone on insulin. :(

11. The idiots who thing it's a good idea to go back to daylight saving time so freaking soon. Stop playing with it - kids and cows can't tell time.

Thought about that one after I hit post comment.

6. and those of us who do need them have assholes come up to us and make smart ass comments because I'm not limping at that very moment.
9. true that.
10. don't sell yourself short. It's ok to have feelings.
11. my son will tease me and tell me I sound like a book. So I say this in words he can understand: shut the fuck up, dumbass. And I love you.

1. and then they wonder why their kids turn into serial killers and drug smugglers.
3. but it's OK to let crack head moms keep their kids? You guys would make great moms. And don't apologize for being rude - you're not.

6. instead of egging him on, maybe try to get the guy in a hospital before he kills himself?

9. tell them to do a T4 AND a TSH. Stuff shows up on a T4 that doesn't on a tsh.

Amen, especially to #1,2 and 4.

1. The fact that one of my parents lands in a hospital every time they've left the state together for the last year. Seriously. This is getting ridiculous.
2. The Green Bay Packers. There is no other football team I will *always* root against.
3. Box elder bugs. Kill them all!
4. TPTB at the Stargate franchise. For so many reasons.
5. People who presume to tell me how to raise my child. My kid is actually quite well-behaved compared to most of the kids I see his age, so maybe, just maybe, I'm doing something *right*.
6. Homophobes. Personally, I think they're just jealous because some folks have managed to find love and they haven't.
7. Censorship. Can we say "free speech"? If you don't want your kid exposed to it, don't let them watch/read/listen to it! It's a little something called "parenting."
8. Barney. I mean, really. Ugh.
9. Touchy-feely parents who chastise their kids by saying "You're making my heart sad. Don't you want to make my heart happy?" *gag* Kid, you need to do what I tell you in three seconds, or you get a time-out. One ... two ...
10. Crowds. I swear, the older I get, the less I can stand being around other people.

10 things I hate:
1. Gossip Girl; both the books and the show.
2. Having flat tires because it has made me scared shitless and paranoid about thinking that I'm going to pop another tire on some highway and get into a bad accident.
3. Waiting for letters from colleges, and by proxy rejection letters
4. Cleaning litter boxes, cleaning up cat pee and dog pee, picking up the poop the dogs left in the house, etc.
5. Waiting for downloads from iTunes for the most recent episodes of shows I have season passes for...more than 24 hours after they aired.
6. People who write off a show before it even has a chance to prove itself, examples being NCIS: Los Angeles and most recently Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior (It's only had four episodes people! For fuck's sake let it mature a little!).
7. People who leave spam comments on my journal posts (No you assholes, I am not interested in the world's largest Ebook library).
8. Realizing that your own writing sounds trivial and very junior high-ish (I admit to this. I actually went back and read some of my stuff and then realized that it's very strange for two people who have been dating for six years and who are crazy in love with each other to be living in separate apartments, and it is equally strange that when traveling they stay in separate rooms. Yeah, like I said, very junior high)
9. How I distract myself from work I'm supposed to be doing by going on the internet (in fact, I should be doing my International Relations homework right now)
10. Most of the boys that I go to school with and the fact that I would probably say yes if one of the good looking ones asked me out (but only because I haven't been on a date since PROM last year)

On a side note: what does the woman who lives down the street from you DO with her BMW if she doesn't drive it and it's not sitting in her driveway looking pretty?

I totally agree with that statement. I fucking hate daylight savings time. Especially today since I had to get up earlier than normal so I could go sing at church.

Hate is a powerful weapon....hmmmmm

1) I hate whoever okay'd most of Season 5 of SGA, not Vegas, or The Shrine, those were awesome.

2) I hate whoever thought, allowed, or suggested that SGA be canceled, and now refuse to give us the promised movie.

3) I hate that people are suffering PERIOD!

4) I hate the 'what I don't understand', no matter how hard I try (especially those that takes life such as serial killers)

5) I hate we have moderan earthly events such as wrestling on a science fiction TV station (even if some of the players do look and act like aliens at times)

6) I hate that people judge the a person by looks, weight, race, color, sex, etc....and might be missing out on what could be a truly wonderful person.

7) I hate that family takes advantage of other family members and refuse to see it no matter who points it out to them....or how often.

8) I hate(not really) that I have to go back and read SGA fanfiction cause there's not more new stuff coming out.....

9) I hate that NFL right now for a few reasons, because there are more important issues that deserve the TV coverage is one of them.

10) I temporairly hate snow right now, because Sping is so close and I've seen more than enough snow to last me until next year.

Really with you on 10. One of my cats is 15 now and costing me a fortune at the vet, and that's only to delay the ineviable. And I really *really* hate the people who abandoned him as a kitten so that when he came to me he was so badly malnourished that he developed serious health issues as he got older.

1. People who judge me on what my job is, its my job so stop being a prude about it!
2. Someone who hums in a library ..... loudly!
3. Most of my family, I love them because its family, but doesn't mean I have to like them all the time.
4. Homophobes, right to an opinion but throw it in my face and I guarantee one of us is coming away smiling :)
5. Sky News, useless channel especially when they tell viewers to check BBC news for accuracy!
6. SGA canceled then chances of having a movie shot down, leaving most of us annoyed with only half an end.
7. I agree with you on Syfy, used to watch it all the time, but now I feel very wrong even glancing at it.
8. No matter how hard I try I still cannot do small necklace clips ....
9. No-one talking at all for hours, until you get on a laptop/computer and suddenly everybody wants a chat.
10. Ginger .... I hate ginger, I'm old enough to know I don't like to eat it or even smell it ... so stop telling me I should eat some!

.... and breathe, that felt really exhilarating :)

The most interesting reason I heard for the name change was mercenary - they couldn't trademark / copyright (never can remember which) "scifi", but they could "SyFy". Pffft - like there were hordes of people clamoring to buy their branded merchandise.

Oh thank God. I thought I was the only one who didn't love the ALL of the Beatles songs.

1. People (American people) who do not understand “separation of Church and State”. If your religion says you shouldn’t have abortions or sleep with someone of your gender, that’s fine. Don’t do it. But don’t try to influence politics so I don’t have that option. I’m not a member of your Church.
2. The PTB that govern mainstream tv (and movies). For feeding us reality tv/frat boy pablum and letting good shows like SGA and Firefly die.
3. Cake Boss fans. Who come to my town and line up for hours outside Carlos Bakery, hogging the sidewalk and the store. It used to be one of my favorite places for a cup and a pastry back in the day. I haven’t been inside in years.
4. My bank. Who charges me $35 when I’m $1.36 overdrawn.
5. People (who happen to be related to me) who refuse to learn how to take care of their computers because “It’s easier just to call you.” (direct quote)
6. Panera Bread. And any other establishment that offers free wifi and then proceeds to block any site I’m interested in. I can understand blocking porn videos – there are children running around. But text? And poker? Really?
7. Pro-life women’s health “clinics” masquerading as non-partisan doctor’s offices.
8. Westboro Baptist Church
9. People who think I’m somehow “less” because I’m not married. Been there, done that. I’m done taking care of anyone over the age of 18.
10. The Hitchhiker’s Guide, Interview with a Vampire, and all those other books that I tried so hard to love, but just couldn’t stand.

1. Sitting in Traffic. I would be perfectly happy living in a city with good public transportation. Unfortuntely I don't.
2. People who pay to go to the movies then feel the need to coninuously talk, text, check their phone for messages or have kids who whine/cry and then get mad at others who ask them to stop. Seriously wtf?
3. Bigots. Enough said.
4. Being looked at like a freak because I don't like to go out to bars and/or parties and get wasted on alcohol.
5. People (mostly females), that drown themselves in perfume, most likely to cover up the fact that they don't shower enough.
6. Guys who wear their jeans below their ass and yet still wear a belt. Please raise your hand if seeing men with their boxers/briefs displayed is IN NO WAY ATTRACTIVE.
7. Skinny jeans on guys. Sorry if some out there like this but I just think its very weird looking.
8. Reading fanfiction where the author seemed to not even take the time to know the spelling of characters names. Ex: Moony from HP was referred to as Moody instead for an entire chapter. I stopped reading at that point.
9. Pet owners who don't clean up after their pets.
10. PMSing...its seriously sucked as I have gotten older. Chocolate has become my best friend!

1. Ice, except in drinks. It's been a very long winter.
2. The people who ran the Star Trek and Stargate franchises into the ground.
3. Fanfic trolls who have driven some of my favorite writers out of fandom.
4. Conversely, "special snowflake" writers who try to hold updates hostage for reviews (only favorable, of course) or who whine about what a trial it is to have fans.
5. SGU - and the sad thing is that a couple of changes could have made a big difference on my opinion. Kill Chloe, get rid of the communication stones and really cut them off from Earth.
6. SyFy. Enough said. And Food Network.
7. Fish as food. I love shrimp, scallops and lobster, but hate all fish. No, I won't try a nice mild white fish - it still tastes like fish, and I don't like fish.
8. Political telemarketers. Somehow I have ended up on the call list of every potential presidential candidate in both major parties. I don't like any of you, I'm not going to give you money, stop calling me.
9. Not knowing if our friend's family is safe in Japan.
10. People who think it's odd that I know (and care) more about sports than my husband. And as a sub-point, I really hate the New England Patriots.:>)

1. People who hear "fat" or "pagan" or "liberal" and instantly decide to hate me. Give me five minutes, and I can probably give you more than just one stupid reason, and at least two real ones.

2. People who assume they need to tell me I'm fat, like it's a public service message. I went to college, don't you think I know I'm fat?

3. People who are inconistent when it comes to abortion. You can't insist that a medical procedure is also murder. It must be one or the other. Also, in my religion all lives have equal value, so you can't really be for abortion and against the death penalty. Makes no sense.

4. A government whose practices focus on protecting the assets of the top richest people of the country, but take a very healthy bite out of our paychecks with payroll taxes.

5. People who focus on isms as opposed to actual real live people.

6. Bullies of every sort, from the government right down to that snot nosed kid who told my daughter he wanted to kill her on the bus.

7. I hate that I can't actually hunt that little kid in number six for sport. I'm pretty sure it would be very fun.

8. Fox News and Glenn Beck need to die in a fire.

9. With the power of a thousand suns, I hate the Republican Party and the whole sale wrecking of middle American they are doing in all those square states and Michigan.

10. My hair. I seriously need to dye it again. My hair is dark enough that all the gray standout out like a beacon saying "I'm old" and I really am not old.

You mean there was an actual reason? And she's kidding about the wrestling right?

(query: am I the only one who pronounces it See-Fee?)

2. The beach and anything involving getting in a body of water that doesn't have chlorine in it.

Aww, you're like Danno :) You don't like the beach? (http://www.youtube.com/embed/UGYGCVhYaAg)

Marry Me?

#1 - you think "pagan" in bad, you should try "athiest".

#3 - I've always been baffled at how I often find myself standing opposite people in abortion rallies, and beside them in death penalty ones. (Though I do have a problem with how the death penalty is applied in the US - a system where "he who has the most expensive lawyers wins" is a system that should be banned from using the word "justice")

#6/7 - I hate that your daughter couldn't do what my daughter did a few years back. She'd had enough, he cornered her during a floor hockey match, and she put him down. (I do however love the bully's father; when he arrived the first words out of his mouth were "what did you do to her?") She got a 1 day in-school suspension because quote "she hit him so frigging hard". Zero Tolerance applied with a *brain*. She was lucky. She could have been expelled for hurting the poor misunderstood little tyke.

1. French Toast

2. child abusers. They should all be burnt alive

3. The asshole who drives down the street at 3am blasting his music so loud the windows in my bedroom rattle. Seriously how can he even still HEAR the music? he must be deaf by now.

4. My co-worker who gets angry with me for no apparent reason and then refuses to speak to me. I don't even know what I did to piss her off.

5. Insurance companies that make people jump through hoops and then still deny them the medical care the need and deserve

6. People who assume that because I'm disabled I'm also stupid (thankfully there haven't been many)

7. My father who never listens to anything I say and makes me feel like a little kid no matter how old I get. (and various other reasons)

8. All of the PTB that are responsible for canceling all my favorite shows Firefly, Dollhouse, Star Atlantis etc

9. beets yuck

10. People who don't give up their seats on trains/buses to the elderly and or pregnant women so I am forced to give up mine.

wow that did feel good :)

It's not so much that I don't like the beach it's just that I've been convinced since I was six that I'm a shark attack waiting to happen.

Did you know that they've found sharks several hundred miles up the Mississippi River? It's not even safe in fresh water!

No, I'm not kidding about the wrestling!

Aside, my husband calls it Se-Fee (like they are a poodle or something)
