I was going to do a "You Know What I Hate" themed post, because I'm pissed off about something I just read. But then I thought, "hey, wouldn't a 'You Know What I Appreciate' theme say the same thing, but in a healthier, nicer fashion?" My internal monologue resoundingly replied with "HELL NO."
The fact of the matter is: I do hate some things, because some things are evil enough to hate. So here goes...You Know What I Hate?
1) Long-winded and nonsensical political arguments/rants
2) Dirty/angry politics (case in point: Ann Coulter)
3) Sour cream
4) When smart people do stupid things
5) When good writers write poorly
6) Non-human, uninvited creatures who invade my living space
7) Movies that should be amazing, but aren't (X-Men 3, for example)
8) In general, something or someone not living up to its potential
9) Unwarranted pessismism
10) The term "queer," when intended to mean anything other than "unconventional" or "suspicious."
11) People who don't observe basic manners
12) Career politicians
13) People who think that wealth is a bad thing
14) People who are fundamentally lazy
15) Bad public speakers who nonetheless do tons of public speaking

18) Glossy, rather than matted, photos
19) Allergies
20) When my camera runs out of batteries, even though I just replaced them
21) Dick Cheney
22) Barbara Boxer
23) Nancy Pelosi
24) People who can't back up their political opinions
25) My grandmother
26) Test-only smog checks
27) People who hit first
28) People who don't hit second
29) The Religious Right
30) Tamarind candy
31) Pedophiles
32) When people actually prefer MySpace over Facebook
33) Innappropriate self-entitlement
34) The United States's drinking age
35) Taxes
36) People who use religion as the sole basis for morality
37) Anyone who threatens my younger siblings
38) The Electoral College
39) Transgender bathrooms
40) Evangelism
41) Post-Modernism
42) Televangelism
43) Fascism

48) Movies that tout themselves as comedies, but aren't funny
49) Contemporary dance
50) Lists that end on odd numbers
51) Being predictable
That list got a lot longer than I expected. I hate when that happens.
52) Things that go on longer than they should
