Some good hate right here

1. People that ask you a question just as you've taken a bite of something and then make some stupid pseudo-amusing remark like 'any day now, haw haw!' as you're struggling to finish chewing so you can respond. This is basic etiquette, you dickwads. Etiquette for dummies. You wait for someone to finish chewing for an answer; what the fuck else are they supposed to do?

2. North Americans that raise their voice at the end of every sentence so it sounds like a question and say things like 'oh my God, that's so funny' in a monotone voice and don't laugh, despite the fact that they've just claimed that something is 'so funny'.

3. Long hair when it's not attached to a human head. I hate finding my own hair on my stuff, let alone yours. Plus it's a thousand times worse when it's wet and dark.

4. Strong wind that blows straight through the fabric of your clothes, throws shit in your eyes, messes up your hair, sends papers flying and makes it difficult to walk. This is the kind of weather that just makes me want to smack someone.

5. Unreasonably expensive public transport. Eleven pounds for a 90-minute bus journey? Are you fucking kidding me? If I'm taking public transport I want to feel like I'm ACTIVELY being thrifty. I want that fare to feel like pocket change.

Justifiable hate

1. Take out sushi with one weenie little packet of soy sauce.

2. Giant truck owners who can't fit their vehicle between the parking lines.

3. Days that start out sunny and go cloudy

4. Billions in bail outs for the rich, but nothing for the unemployed and hungry.

5. Rush Limbaugh

Drunken Hatred

1. I hate parents who beat their children.

2. I hate self-righteous religious assholes who try to make their assholey religious beliefs the law of the land.

3. I hate all the idiot assholes who decided we should invade Iraq.

4. I hate it when my alcoholic husband gets sloppy, falling-down drunk and thinks I won't know he's drunk if he uses mouthwash before approaching me.

5 I hate cold wind and icy roads and just about everything else associated with winter in the northeast.

(Thanks for this great opportunity to vent!)
