Things That I Hate

Adults and How They Think They Rule the World

My grandmother thinks that because I am a teenager, I don’t have any feelings or have a right to say what’s on my mind. She says that she is a adult and I am not, so what she says goes and I have no say in anything, and that I should be seen but not heard.

Waking Me Up for Something Stupid

There I am, sleeping like a baby, and the next thing I know someone’s shaking me and saying “Hey, wake up! Do you know where my camera is?” Couldn’t this have waited until morning? Now I have to spend hours trying to fall asleep again.

Lack of a Gender-Neutral Pronoun

“Tell him to enter his password” assumes the person is male. “Tell them to enter their password” means two or more people who share a password should enter it together. “Tell it to enter its password” implies the person is not a person at all. “Tell him/her to enter his/her password” is obscenely long to write and read. Why can’t we have a simple one-syllable gender-neutral pronoun?

Theatres

I sit down to enjoy a movie, the theatre is almost empty, and some idiot chooses to sit right behind me. And of course it’s one of those nuts that laughs their head off at the mildest things. Another thing is when there’s a group of girls who are always laughing and chatting it up. I thought this kind of thing wasn’t allowed! And you also have the chewers, those people who eat louder than an airhorn blows. Crunch, munch, smack, gulp. Aagh! Another thing I hate is that they keep the theatre auditoriums so cold that I almost want to run around in the lobby and come back. So what if I miss a minute… or five… at least I’d be warm. Lastly, not only is theatre food entirely overpriced, but if you buy popcorn, it is so salty that you almost have to get a drink. And they won’t let you bring in your own stuff. What a scam! It’s not even good quality food! This can all be solved easily: One, more enforced restrictions on loud, disruptive sounds. Two, use an air conditioning system, and if more people pack the theatre, giving off more body heat, turn the temperature down. Third, lower food prices, you’ll sell more, it’ll make business better!

“Blondes Are Better”

I hate when people say that blonde people are more attractive. I have black hair and every time someone says that, it makes me feel ugly, thinking that unless I dye my hair blonde, I will never get a boyfriend. Look at Megan Fox! Millions of men across the country are in love with her and I don’t see blonde in her hair. Blondes aren’t any prettier or sexier than people with any hair color. So if an unattractive person with black hair and a hot person with blonde hair switched hair colors, would that unattractive person suddenly become Miss Sexy and the originally hot blonde be worthless? Yeah, I didn’t think so. It depends on your face and personality to be really hot for most people. Loving someone for their hair color is just ridiculous.

Abortion

People think it is okay to do. People say it is just a brainless mass. But they’re wrong. Sixteen days after conception the baby’s hart starts to beat. Four days after conception there is a brain. I wonder about the pain that baby went through when they took a knife and stabbed it through its heart. All of us were once like that! We used to be cells and you know what, cells are the sign of life. If the cells are multiplying, it is alive. And it is horrible to end its life just because it’s a baby. It will never have a chance. If you don’t want kids, don’t have sex!

Mosquitoes

I went for a short walk in the woods with my boyfriend and when I got back I had thirteen mosquito bites on my face alone.

Mamihlapinatapai

Defined as when two persons see each other, make eye contact, and develop an instant crush, but each waits for the other to make the move and neither do. I don’t hate the meaning or the word, I just really hate being a victim of it.

Couples Arguing While Out With Friends

I hate it when I’m hanging out with a couple and we are generally having a good, enjoyable time until one of them brings up personal relationship problems and throws their partner under the bus, which is awkward and inappropriate and generally a gigantic buzzkill. Leave your relationship problems and drama at home so everyone else can enjoy themselves.

Ahnnohhyiiing (Annoying) People

I absolutely hate when people type on social websites liiike dh!s or lyk dhey donnt no how tooh speell as if they never went to school and were taught how to write properly! Do you write your essays for class like that? Do you think it’s cute? Because it really isn’t! It takes more effort to write “how ar3 yhoou toodaiii?” than to write “how are you today?” Why do you feel the need to make your own life difficult and annoy everyone else at the same time?
