I was talking to my grandmother on the phone, and the subject came up that I have too many 'hang-ups' (she's one of those critical old biddies). So I got to thinking and I came up with a list of the things that actually do annoy the heck out of me.
1) People who listen to bad music and then get on my case for saying it's bad music, as if my interest in Holst and Stravinsky somehow negates my ability to have an opinion. The best was when someone called me "negative" for expressing my hatred of 'NSYNC.
2) Everyone in my philosophy class, excluding Josh and Ms. Heidersbach. They are the lone pillars of intelligence in that oxygen-deprived room.
3) People who have cyber-sex. Ooooh baby, your hard drive is so BIG!
4) People who go around saying they are "pro-life" who then vocalize their intent to murder abortion doctors!
5) Religious freaks on TV in general.
6) Eminem. I hope the misogynistic ---hole pisses off the wrong woman, preferably Lorena Bobbit.
7) Nasty rumors, especially when they're about my buddies. But they're never about me. I wonder why?
8) Shallow people. I'm talking about the types who hate you if you don't drive a Honda, own a Honda lawnmower, and basically screw the CEO of Honda every night. Jesus Christ, get a life. They aren't that great of cars anyway; my last encounter with a Honda left my baby Toyota totaled.
9) Individuals who hold grudges for most of their lives, and then get pissed when they wonder why they are having ulcers.
10) The Northwest Electric Symphony of Strings, myself excluded, although I have been known to get on my own nerves at times.
11) The staff of the school papers (whether it be high school or college), who interview their friends and get sound bites from people with roughly the same intelligence level as them, and who begin sentences with "I'll admit I'm a girl" and misspell the word "creative" as "crative”
12) George W. Bush. The American people actually elected a man who said "We're going to have the best educated American people in the world." I guess it's just a barometer of the IQ of this great nation. James Garfield, our brighest president, is spinning in his grave.
I put the unedited list on my website, but what I'm wondering is 1) Is it not normal to have things like this bother you and
2) what makes you want to gouge your eyes out and emancipate yourself from the human race?
