Hmm... Day Seven
Pet Hates, huh. When I first read this I actually thought they wanted me to discuss things about pets that I hated. I had a long list. ;)
Hate is a pretty strong word. I'm not sure I legitimately 'hate' much of anything or anyone. But things that annoy the fuck out of me? Fine.
It didn't say how many of these I had to do so I'm gonna stop right here. It's too early in the morning to be wallowing in the negative. And I have to say that of all the questions on this list, this is the one I dislike the most. I liked it better when I thought I was being asked to tell you what I hated about pets.

Hate is a pretty strong word. I'm not sure I legitimately 'hate' much of anything or anyone. But things that annoy the fuck out of me? Fine.
- Right now? Congress would have to head my list. I discovered the other day while watching a National Geographic special on Arlington that I really am something of a patriot. I honestly love my country. But all that does is make it that much harder to watch it being run by right-wing radicals and 1 per-centers who, seemingly, have no clue what actually makes this country worthwhile. Will McAvoy said it best: "It's ironic because the biggest enemy of the phony Republican isn't Nancy Pelosi or Harry Reid or Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama, it's this man (Jesus). He said, "Heal the sick, feed the hungry, care for the weakest among us, and always pray in private."
- Phony people is second. I may get on your nerves at times and have annoying habits and prejudices. But what you see is pretty much what you get. I don't smile and act all sweetness and light in public and reserve my Medusa face and attitude for when the spotlight's not on me. And believe me, social media is overflowing with folks like that. Some of them are fairly popular BNF's. I prefer annoying people over phony bullshit any day.
- Smugness and self righteousness. And I realize that I'm guilty of these things myself at times. In my own defense I am, at least, aware of it and try to control it. But smug, self righteous people make me want to spit nails.
- Cruelty and bullying. Period. If I had an actual hate that would be it.
It didn't say how many of these I had to do so I'm gonna stop right here. It's too early in the morning to be wallowing in the negative. And I have to say that of all the questions on this list, this is the one I dislike the most. I liked it better when I thought I was being asked to tell you what I hated about pets.
