    I noticed a post earlier about posts people hate. I suddenly had the urge to pop some popcorn and chat about my current dislike. I'm not terribly partial to the new Macy's commercial. Not only is it just plain annoying, its jingle keeps insisting, "You have to believe we are magic!" No, I most certainly do not, Macy's. Stop being so pushy. Tongue out

    I also get annoyed when my FI tries to yell things to me while I'm having my uh, "private time" in the bathroom. I can't go under pressure, and I don't want to be conversing while doing my business. I'd like to reserve that time just for me only.

     

    What bit of every day life irritates you?

    When FH gets confused every SINGLE week that bills have to be paid and the money in the bank is not the amount we have to just play with. I guess because I pay the bills he forgets that this has to be done and we thinks just magically have phones and cars and lights and TV and food, because every week it seems he is baffled that there will be $X in the bank account but that he can only spend $Y. WHY is this so hard for men to comprehend?? "But my paycheck JUST went in the bank!" And bills JUST have to come out of it!

    That people don't rsvp on time. Seriously. Waiting on 50 responses right now.

    That my FI will let certain containers and other dishes pile up on the counter rather than use the dishwasher because he doesn't think it gets them clean enough. They don't get clean sitting on the counter there either, buddy.

    That my mom (and dad) have yet to meet with the priest to do witness questions because of her bias against Catholicism (FI is Catholic, I am Lutheran). We've been engaged for over 2 years. I told her after our first meeting with the priest. Still hasn't done it and we are 23 days out. Fun convo to be had this weekend. And this is in spite of her telling me she's completely fine with it. Hypocrite much?

    Enough complaining for now :P

    lets see...

    drives me nuts when people come into my coffee shop and just stare at the menu board for like 15 minutes before they order a a drip coffee.

    when people copy me. i freaking hate it.

    when my hubby asks obvious questions just to start a conversation like "oh, you wore a dress today?" when it's obvious i am wearing a dress...

    Oh yes. I also hate when I'm driving along on a one lane road, and someone hauls ass to turn in front of me, and then proceeds to drive so sloooooooooooooooowly. Dude, you almost hit me turning onto this street, and now this? Why couldn't you have waited for me to pass? You're obviously not in a hurry.

    @ohheavenlyday: DH is the exact same! Every freakin week we do the "Oh noez where is the money?" dance.

    It's actually funny, every Monday you can set your watch by it. "I just got paid Friday, what the hell happened to all our money?!"

    It's like he thinks the bill fairy just comes and takes it all away...

    I hate when my clients are so surprised that just because they have a wedding planner doesn't mean that they are my only client, or that I can hang a freakin'80 pound chandelier in a TENT with my bare hands.  Or that they think just because they have a tent they are immune to WET ground. Well. that's the big one for today ;-)

    I hate people who were cartoon pajama pants out in public.  Seriously, splurge on some black sweats.

    People who sit and wait for someone to load groceries just for a damn parking spot.

    A little explanation about this. DH works 2nd shift. So he is home all day with the 3 year old while I work.  Then I come home from work pick up the kid from gma's, the house is always messy but just a quick clean up, except on Thursdays. I HATE THURSDAY's!!!

    My bonus' sons bio-mom has him on Thursday's which means that DH is home alone. Every week DH says he will clean up and do laundry or something on Thursdays, however every Thursday he sleeps in, makes a huge mess in the house, plays video games, and cooks a bunch of smelly stuff and leaves the dishes everywhere. It takes me an hour of walking around cleaning up and I always have to search for the tv remote too! Today it was the bathroom. Really the bathroom???

    Thanks for the opportunity to vent, I needed it, probably because it's Thursday LOL

    It'd be shorter to list the things I don't hate at this point in time... people in general are lately irritating. Oh and the awesome weather we keep having that isn't really common for Pennsylvania like ummm TORNADOS, WTH!?

    I can stand my mother right now who thinks that she needs to constantly cause drama and then place me right in the middle of it. I get confused sometimes as to who is the mother and who is the child, because I certainly do not start crap like this.

    I also can't stand people who whisper about me being a bad caretaker because my charge (I'm a nanny/student) likes to sing loudly, flutter his hands around, and throw the occasional tantrum. He's Autistic people, not a bad kid. Try walking in my shoes, or better yet his shoes, and see what kind of impulse control you have then. Sheesh!

    @mwitter80: That reminds me... My husband always plays on his phone while he is in the bathroom. That I can stand, but I HATE finding it in there after he is gone. I know it is so stupid of me, but it honestly makes me so angry when I see it laying there.

    I hate when I ask FI to do something during his work at home days and when I get home at 5:30 it still isn't done. And I'm not talking big chores either. It's usually something as simple as loading the dishwasher. Now I have to wait 20 minutes to start cooking while he loads dishwasher. So annoying! Especially since I can see that you've been watching coaching DVDs all day! Ugh

    @MCC919: Ughhh I hate that too!!

    I hate people who go through the express lane with the limit of items. Like for fucks sakes, I just want to buy my popsicles and face wash and go home, not wait in line for 30 minutes because you think you're special enough to bring your overflowing cart through.

    I hate when I ask Ginger what he wants to eat and he goes "anything". But then anytime I come up with an idea he's like "ugh not that". After 5 failed suggestions I ask him what he wants to eat again and he goes "oh anything, I'm not picky". Just pick a fucking food so I can make it for you!!!!

    I hate it when my husband walks into the bathroom without knocking catches me taking out a tampon. Now i'm so paranoid I lock the door when I'm just brushing my teeth. It's like who raised you not to knock before entering???

    Since meeting Kingy, I hate all of the "Outback" and "Fosters" commercials with they're horrible accents and ridiculous things they say

     

    Right now, I hate every school district in Illinois for making me fill out their super long application and then not calling me for an interview

     

    I also hate that Kingy and I have been living with my mom for over a month and before that we lived with his mom for 3 months.. the home buying process is not easy, especially with foreign EVERYTHING and I can't even be involved because I'm a liability because I'm unemployed (again, Illinois school districts)

    It annoys me that my husband spills tea on the counter like... EVERY day and doesn't wipe it up. And so then it dries into a sticky mess that I have to clean. Like seriously.... every day.

    @JulesSchnooks: Oh wow! I hate that too! It drives me absolutely batty. It seems to happen more here then it did in Florida which is surprising.

     

    Let's see, I HATE IT when customers come into the store with the Starbucks plastic coffee cups and just leave them in the buggy for me to pick up. I hate it when customers also let their kids throw their uneaten food at the bottom of the buggy. Excuse me, but I'm not a maid and I shouldn't be treated like such just because I happen to work in the retail industry which some people think is such a low stature. Some people are just barely scraping by until something better comes along, or that lovely pharmacy technician license is approved....

     

    I hate when people suddenly remember they need to get on the highway just as they're about the pass the exit, slam on their breaks and almost cause an accident. That's always soooo much fun. I also hate the fact that my ex-boss holds a grudge against me because I quit due to health reasons. Sorry, guess I should have came to work and had a heart attack there, oh and work with bruises on me because a guy decided to attack me. She's literally made my work life a living hell because I have no choice but to list my previous employer...:sigh: Okay, ranting over.

    that "Snooki" wrote a book, yet the publisher of said book didn't account for the fact that her "audience" probably can't read.

    also, she looks like a fire hydrant in heels.

    @KatyElle: 

    I know it!! It's like they genuinely forget that you have to pay bills with that money too. Whenever I remind him of this (remember dear, the mortgage is due this week, and the power, and my car payment) he cuts his eyes at me like the fact he can't go buy a motorcycle one afternoon if he feels like it is due to my poor money management skills. Actually, son, it is GOOD money management! It's called payin your bills! LOL.

    His brother was supposed to come visit us this weekend but now is not, so suddenly, FH wants to take a trip. He told me this yesterday. Sorry friend, there's a thing called a budget and you can't spring a 4 day trip on me one day before you want to go and expect me to just shove aside bills to come up with a bunch of extra play money for you. However if I say "budget" he cocks his head like a dog at me. "What dat."

    I hate that I have to wait one more month to watch the new season of True Blood.

    I hate that I walk by an amazing bakery in my neighborhood all the time but can't consume every single item in the store.

    I get annoyed with blatantly bad grammar and textspeak.  Especially when my students use it in their papers.  If I see one more "lol" or ":)" in a formal, written essay, I will scream.
