Happy New Year (Belated)!
As in all things, I'm terribly spastic and belated, but here it is...
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
And best of luck on all of your new year's resolutions. As an opening post to this year, I want to hear 10 things that REALLY bother you--silly things, big things, people things, thing things...anything! Especially I-have-no-legitimate-reason-but-I-still-want-to-throttle-the-living-daylights-out-of-you pet peeves. Throw 'em my way! Because that's how we're starting off this new year--with a bit of a venting. Think of it as a complaint cleanse :)
Ten things that bother me (in no particular order of unreasonableness):
1. People who make disgusting noises when they chew (I call it "snarfling").
2. When other people eat food that I've been rationing out for myself.
3. Clusters of dots or holes--also referred to as "trypophobia" (not kidding!).
4. People who jiggle their legs or other appendages during exams.
5. Temptations I did not account for (i.e. freshly-baked goods in my household on days when I'm on a health spree--weird, right?).
6. People who draw the conversation away from a perfectly sensible topic to themselves through a completely non sequitur move. Example: Me--"I like cows." Them: "Speaking of cows, I'm a professionally-certified rabbit herder." .......what??
7. People who constantly talk about how MUCH they have eaten and how BIG they feel today as they continue working on the celery stick they have been gnawing on for the past two hours.
8. Chronic lateness and lack of communicativeness about said lateness, especially when accompanied by lack of apology about lack of communicativeness about said lateness.
9. People who constantly want to know "what the plan is" when there is. No. Plan.
10. "Stuck" or "jammed" inanimate objects that spring to life and impede all progress simply to spite you, especially when you're in the biggest hurry of your life.
