10 x 10
I have several things I should be doing right now: filling out a job application, looking up ideas for my cousin's bridal shower on Saturday, exercising, etc. Instead I'm putting all of them off to create a meme. And to occasionally stare into space while listening to the clock tick. Because I can.
Make ten lists of ten things each. They can be of whatever you want: favorite foods, reasons cats are adorable, the worst jobs you've ever had, anything. Just remember the "10 x 10" theme. Symmetry is awesome, people.
None of the lists are ranked; I'm too lazy to do that. They're just listed as they popped into my head. :D

10 Canon (Or Almost Canon) Pairings I Hate - For the majority of these pairings, I actually like both characters; I just don't like them together. Of course, there are exceptions. *glares viciously at #1*
1. Heero/Relena (Gundam Wing) - One of the few exceptions. I love Heero, but Relena is my least favorite character to ever exist. Ever. Out of all the animes, video games, movies, TV shows, books I've watched/played/read.
2. Monica/Chandler (Friends) - I adore both characters, but I hated how Chandler had to change in order to be with Monica. She became such a damn shrew once they were engaged that I can't believe the writers kept them together.
3. Wakka/Lulu (Final Fantasy X)
4. Squall/Rinoa (FFVIII)
5. Domon/Rain (G Gundam) - This one I dislike because it's so overdone. I'm not sure how it is now, but recently the fandom was dominated by purists who nearly had seizures if anyone dared write a non-canon pairing.
6. Gene/Melfina (Outlaw Star)
7. Tidus/Yuna (FFX)
8. Stuart/Frannie (The Stand)
9. Kazuya/Jun (Tekken) - Their union did produce Jin, who I love, but I still have trouble believing this actually happened. The two only knew each other during the T2 tournament (I'm no expert, so I could easily be wrong), and Jun doesn't seem like the type of woman who'd leap into bed with a guy she hadn't known long. This one just doesn't work for me.
10. Chris/Jill (Resident Evil) - I know this one isn't canon, but I seem to be the only person in the RE fandom who doesn't like it. I also seem to be the only person who ships Carlos/Jill instead. >_____>
10 Commercial Series That Make Me Want to Gouge Out My Eyes
1. Olive Garden
2. Visa Checkcard - Okay, we get it: it's easier to pay with a card than a check/cash. But daily life will not grind to a fucking halt if I decide to pay with a $20 bill instead of digging through my purse for my damn card.
3. Wal-Mart
4. Dish Network - Contrary to what everyone around me seems to think, Frank Caliendo is not funny.
5. Anything for a Bravo TV show
6. Charter
7. Always - No, I am not going to have a happy period. Periods are not "happy." They are evil, disgusting, painful, and inconvenient. And the next person who tells me otherwise will die.
8. Red Bull
9. Geico - Those cavemen irritate the shit out of me. As does the gecko.
10. Corona
10 Favorite Yaoi Pairings
1. Smoker/Ace (One Piece)
2. Kazuya/Lee (Tekken)
3. Shinjiro/Akihiko (Persona 3) - The newest pairing I've begun to ship; it's awesome.
4. Dean/Chuck (Wild ARMs 5) - As of now, I'm the only person (that I know of) that has written English D/C fic. And that, my friends, is a tragedy. :(
5. Phoenix/Edgeworth (Ace Attorney)
6. Taichi/Yamato (Digimon)
7. Snake/Otacon (Metal Gear Solid)
8. Jin/Hwoarang (Tekken)
9. Ryu/Ken (Street Fighter)
10. Luffy/Zoro (One Piece)
10 Celebrities That Make Me Want to Go On a Shooting Rampage - Exluding politicians; I could create a whole other list for them. Topping it would be Bush, because I hate him. And he's an intolerant prick.
1. Britney Spears
2. Lindsay Lohan
3. Paris Hilton
4. The entire cast of High School Musical
5. Anyone who appears on a Disney Channel series
6. Every single American Idol contestant
7. Jennifer Lopez
8. Hilary Duff
9. Anyone who is only famous because of their already famous sibling (i.e. Ashlee Simpson)
10. Country music duos - Yes, all of them.
10 Annoying TV Shows
1. American Idol
2. Rules of Engagement - As it is largely responsible for the cancellation of The Class, it must be destroyed.
3. Extreme Makeover: Home Edition - Call me a bastard, but there is such a thing as too much sap. *vomits*
4. NCIS
5. Laguna Beach/The Hills - *seppuku*
6. E! True Hollywood Story
7. Anything on TLC - particularly What Not To Wear: Could Stacy London be more of a bitch?
8. CSI: Miami
9. Reality dating shows, except for the awesomely bad Next
10. Grey's Anatomy
10 Pairings/Characters That Only I Seem to Ship/Like - If there are other people that like it, they number about two.
1. Jude Maverick (WA4) - While we're on the subject of WA, I also seem to be the only person who doesn't like Janus. I was thrilled when he finally bit the dust. *is shot*
2. Forest Law (Tekken)
3. Ryu/Ken (Street Fighter) - That this pairing gets so little love saddens me. Particularly after watching the animated movie and SFII:V. The pool scene - GAY.
4. Paul/Forest (Tekken) - All right, so more than two people like P/F. But it still receives almost no love.
5. Mission Vao (Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic)
6. Mical/Disciple (KotOR II)
7. Fei Long (SF)
8. Domon/Chibodee (G Gundam)
9. Fei Long/Chun Li (SF)

10 Favorite Het Pairings
1. Albel/Nel (Star Ocean:Till the End of Time)
2. Lei/Jun (Tekken)
3. Jet/Virginia (WA3) - I'll admit that this one is extremely overdone. But to be fair, the majority of J/V writers suck. Written well, this pairing is fantastic.
4. Arnaud/Raquel (WA4)
5. Atton/Exile (KotOR II)
6. Ross/Rachel (Friends)
7. Cloud/Tifa (FFVII)
8. Rudy/Cecilia (WA/ACF)
