Things That I Hate

People in Commercials

I think its stupid when people on commercials say “Hi, I’m [name].” It’s like, why do we care about your name? We’ve never even heard of you before! Unless they’re famous, I don’t see the point of it. Sure, maybe they do it to get noticed and gain a title like Billy Mays, but I doubt anyone would go farther than watching the commercial to find out more about the person.

That Akward Moment when You Fart and Sneeze

It was reading time in class (this was years ago) and I sneezed and farted, really loud. And my teacher stopped reading and stared at me! So everybody knew it was me.

Also just when you randomly fart by accident… like when you sit down and fart! Why can’t we just have a fart button or something?

Waking Up Angry

3:30: Went to sleep tired. 5:30: Woke up angry. Didn’t speak to my girlfriend for fear she’s going to break up with me, can’t speak to my mom—she’ll simply say “I told you so”, quit my job as a janitor (all the kids at Toys and Joy are going to be pissed), lost my wallet (375 dollars in it), dog ran way last week, first student loan collection came back today (375 dollars), TV is out and can’t watch Everybody Loves Raymond today. I’ve never awoken angry because I never had a reason to… now I know better.

Selfish People

My cousin and my two nephews are so selfish but my side of the family is nice. Once when we went to Ecuador, we went to a park with this swing thing and they took turns using it when we were going to leave the park, my nephew was at the end of the line for the thing and everyone was trying to get a turn really fast, then he started crying like a crazy person and my other nephews were so nice that they let him go first. Then he got off it, ran away and said: “hahaha, losers!” See? What a jerk. Then he ran to the car and got in so the other kids didn’t get to use the swing. I swear, one day I’m gonna slap that kid silly!

When People Call Me a Showoff

I’m good at what I do. If I like to play sports or do gymnastics, don’t get mad at me for doing what I find is fun. It’s not like I’m being arrogant or trying to show off, and it’s not my fault you chose to sit on the side and do nothing. Stop trying to make me lower myself to make yourself happy.

People Who Constantly Stalk You on Facebook

We all have that Facebook friend. You know, that one that is always online, always sending you messages, and “like”s/comments on every status update you post, even if it’s an inside joke that has nothing to do with them. They also might “like” it every time someone posts on your wall, even if they don’t know the person. They also “like” all their own comments on your stuff and “like” status updates that you posted 3 months ago. And when you post on someone else’s wall, they try to jump into the conversation. Yeah… I actually have one of those. A dorky guy who is in love with me.

Thanks a Heap

I want to go on a trip to Ecuador to help children learn, to help communities that are less fortunate than mine and to make a difference. It’s $3,795 CAD. I know, that’s expensive. You can stop telling me that money doesn’t grow on trees, I’m aware. You can stop yelling at me over this. You’ve spent well over $5,000 dollars to send my sister to both the Dominican Republic and Mexico to stay at some fancy resort. And for what, to take some pictures with some dolphins and get drunk every night? Meanwhile I want to go and help people less fortunate than us and you’re telling me that “Oh, it’s too expensive.” Oh, and if I’m not mistaken you guys bought my sister and yourselves a brand new $3,000 dollar mattress. And my brother-in-law a $4,000 iMac! Didn’t you two also spend about $10,000 dollars to build two giant porches in the front yard and the backyard, but you can’t help me pay $3,000 dollars for a trip to actually make a difference?

Thanks a heap.

P.S. Don’t get me wrong, I love my parents to death but I’m seriously feeling a little mistreated, considering I hardly ask for anything. I’ve never asked for anything this big before.

Not Enough Cute Guys

I’m in high school, I agreed to date once I’m 16, and I’ll be turning 16 this year. I just don’t know who I could possibly date, because there are only three cute guys in the whole school! Sometimes I think “what’s the big deal with a boyfriend, I’m still young” but I also don’t want my parents to get the wrong idea because I didn’t bring a guy home for dinner. And we’re a small school, so guys could also get that idea, or think I’m snobby because they could ask “she thinks she’s too good for us or what?” since my reply to everyone who asks why I don’t want to date anyone from school is “I don’t think they’re cute.” And it might seem that I’m snobby, but I’m not, and I’m not going to date anybody just to date them without any chemistry there, unlike other people.

People Who Don’t Use Simple Punctuation

I am not trying to be a grammer natzi because in texts and emails to friends i dont really care. But i cant stand when people dont use simple punctuation like periods. I read a post and there wasn’t a single period, comma, or anything in the entire post. It looked like the entire four line post was one sentence and i couldn’t read it with out stopping and figuring it out. it’s really not that hard!

When People Criticize Others for What They Believe

I understand you believe your god created the universe, but some people don’t. You shouldn’t tell them to stop looking through their telescopes just because you think they are wrong. That would be like us telling you to stop praying because no one’s listening and no one cares.
