Guide to maintaining a reasonably calm Lillian

Nov 20, 2004 09:03

It's too early and I can't get back to sleep. So...I decided to make a list of most (since I could never fit them all in one entry) of my pet peeves:

-puns.
-people who persistently tell a string of bad/corny jokes hoping that someone will laugh at at least one of them (seriously, dead silence on a first try is a hint and a half for your ass).
-customers who disregard my opinions at work because I have a vagina and couldn't possibly know a thing about video games.
-when I'm standing next to one of my male co-workers and a customer asks him a question that he doesn't know, I respond with the correct answer and the customer looks to my male co-worker for confirmation (or in some instances, doesn't even glance at me and thanks my co-worker for the info)
-people I don't know calling me "honey" (same goes for "baby", "sweetie", "sugar", and "babe")
-people who use illnesses and mental disorders (that they may or may NOT have) to illicit attention. Very popular in the LJ world.
-LJ camera whores. Not people who post regular pictures on a regular basis, but whores posing whorily for their cameras and posting their whorey pictures (whorey picture=predominant ass, cleavage, "I'm-so-ready-to-suck-you-off" facial expression) anywhere they think will get them the most compliments. Goes for guys too.
-elitist assholes. (I admit I'm an elitist about some things but I'm not an asshole about it)
-shallow girls
bitchy girls
spoiled girls
stupid girls
girls
-people with tremendous egos.
-PEOPLE WHO LAUGH WHEN I'M SAYING SOMETHING I TAKE VERY SERIOUSLY. (I honestly could kill you...that goes beyond a pet peeve, that enrages me.)
-people who don't say thank you when I do something nice for them that I didn't HAVE to do. (held the door, picked up something you dropped, shrink wrap all your fucking USED games when we're supposed to fucking close in two minutes you ungrateful bitch.....etc.)
-entirely too many emoticons in one sentence.
-overuse of punctuation marks. ("What do u guys think???!!!!1??!!!")
-people who ask "What ARE you?" as opposed to the more civilized, "What's your nationality?"
-people who are unneccesarily loud.
-people who assume I speak Spanish just by glancing at me. Happens alot at work.
-how everything costs money. (just thought I'd throw that in there)
-those diabolical pop-ups that pop up just in front of the button you need to click to get out of the website, as your about to click it.
-menstruation.
-children ages 2 through 12...actually make that 2 through 16. And people around my age with child-like mentalities.
-girl names that end in "y". Like "Jenn-y", "Kell-y", "Mind-y", "Nick-y"....no offense to anyone who has a name like that, it's just not something I'd name my kid.
-Customers who use checks. Get a damn check card.
-Not to get political, but "conservatives".
-People who preach to me and try to change my religion/political view.
-Pennies.
-blinding hot pink/yellow/green/orange fonts.
-not being able to dye my hair yet. I'm SO BORED with it.
-dramatic life changes.
-college.
-drizzly rain. It feels like I'm being spit on.
-not having cable.
-being perpetually hungry.
-not being able to afford/attend ------ classes. Sorry, its a secret.
-the thought of living in Newark (or NJ for that matter) forever.
-being legally blind without my glasses/contacts. One of the first life investments I'm going to make is that laser eye surgery.
-GINGER. Blegh. Practically the only food that can make me heave.
-The stupidity in today's reality shows.
-Winter.
-The holiday season and what it brings (fake/temporary kindness toward humanity, fake/temporary brotherhood, unbelievable loneliness.)

....Theres more where that came from. But I think I've depressed you all enough for one morning.

Maybe next time I'll jot down some things I DON'T hate.
