HI!
So, these last two days have just been me getting back into the normal school days. School is kind of boring and not as great as Christmas holidays so there isn’t much to report. Religion class is always fun though! Today I had a little party with some Hindu gods that Mrs. Petersen brought in today to show us. We’re studying Hinduism. Magically they all ended up on my desk because NO body wanted to see them anymore so they all just hung out with me. Some people thought it was weird that I played with them… but that’s alright! Topher and I also thought the Shiva one looked a lot like some sort of Oscar award. We presented it to Jordan.
BUT I had another reason for this blog. Not just boring school crap.
Ok, so I haven’t actually ever blogged about any of my pet peeves. I see a lot of people do it though so I figured I had to eventually. Today is the day! Alright, I will share TEN with you.
1) BAD GRAMMAR. I absolutely hate this. Here is a sentence with some of my biggest pet peeves embedded in it. > “Yo your definately gonna loose the game their playin weather you played alot more then them or no.” See how terrible that looks? It makes me twitch just looking at it. I also hate when someone says “I didn’t do good on the test.” When you talk like that, you SOUND like you didn’t do well on a test. The correct way to say this is “I didn’t do well on the test.” If you say that to me, I will feel bad for you. If you say it the other way, I will probably kick you. ALSO I will edit that other sentence because every time I glance up and look at it, it taunts me. Correction = “You’re definitely going to lose the game they’re playing whether you have played it a lot more than them or not.” Doesn’t that look a lot nicer? Oh, and LEARN HOW TO USE EFFING APOSTROPHES PLEASE! Something I loooved reading was this because it talks about most of my pet peeves concerning grammar > http://theoatmeal.com/comics/misspelling I highly suggest that you all read it.
(2) THE MINI POP KIDS. Yes, you all hear them on TV. Yes, their commercials play all the flipping time. Yes, they all look like they’re five and sing songs that are way too mature for them. Yes, they suck. Yes, only their mothers, aunts, and grandmothers buy their CDs. Yes, I want to throw the remote at the TV whenever they sing good songs because little kids everywhere will go “I just love ‘Don’t Stop Believing’ by the Mini Pop Kids!” Yes, I hate their HORRIBLE dance moves that don’t look anything like what they should look like. Yes, they are the most obnoxious group of kids ever seen on TV. Yes, they will regret ever being a part of this when they’re 25 and still looking for a better career to do with singing and can’t because they were an annoying Mini Pop Kid once. Yes, THEY SHOULD BE DESTROYED.
(3)PEOPLE WHO LOOK GROSS WHEN THEY EAT. This includes eating with your mouth open, slurping your drink, blowing bubbles in your drink, leaving all sorts of gross (I was going to say food or mess but you know what… I’m just going to leave it at gross) on the table, sniffing back snot while eating, taking food out of your mouth after you put it in your mouth just because you think it doesn’t taste very good, and laughing obnoxiously while there’s food in your mouth. All of the above make me want to throw up. It is GROSS. And yes Clinton, I also despise bread crusts. Ew.
(4)’CUTE’ PET NAMES. I haaate when couples have annoying pet names for each other. When I hear a couple in the hallway going “Meet me tonight Cuddle Buns!” ”Sure thing Squishy Bear!” it makes me want to knock their heads together a couple times. It is not cute. I also hate it when people awkwardly call you “hun” or “babe” because that’s just weird. Especially in text messages. No, I am not Attila nor am I an infant. Thank you. I also don’t like it when other girls around my age call me that because what am I? A six year old? No.
(5)PEOPLE WHO TALK ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE WHILE THEY’RE RIGHT THERE. I understand that there are some people who reeeally bother you. I obviously have people who bother me too. However, when you want to rant about them, ranting about them WHILE they’re within a meter away from you is just plain mean and it makes YOU the annoying one, certainly not the awkward kid sitting right next to you picking his nose with a pencil while talking about his day to himself. Just be nice to them (especially when they’ve never done anything mean to you) and then you can laugh about them later with a good friend.
(6)PEOPLE WHO DON’T EVEN TRY IN SCHOOL. I understand that some people have a really tough time in school and that’s absolutely fine. Not everyone was made to get a 97 % average. I know I certainly don’t get marks like that! BUT when someone sits there throughout the entire class and goes “this is maad gay” and sings random 80s songs, mouths off to the teacher, and doesn’t even bother to look at the exam review (let alone do any homework whatseover) I tend to get pretty frustrated. That’s just plain stupid. There’s a reason why you have a 46 % average if you do that.
(7)PEOPLE WHO CHANGE WHO THEY ARE BASED ON WHO THEY’RE WITH. I find this one of the most irritating. Don’t you just hate it when someone acts like they love you and will come up and give you a big hug and act like they’re your BEST friend one day… but then the next day they just walk by you and look at you like they don’t even know your name? Doesn’t it make you feel like you resemble dirt on the ground that’s been trampled over billions of times? If so, we share something in common! I hate this. This makes me very angry.
(8)PEOPLE WHO SMELL BAD AAALL THE TIME. Alright, I get it. Sometimes, you just have those days where you smell bad. No big deal. BUT when it gets to being every day that you just so happen to be having a “bad smelling day” then I’m sorry… you just stink. Go buy yourself some mint mouth wash, GOOD smelling body spray, a ton of soap, and wear one of those car air fresheners around your neck if you have to. Also, showers ARE your friends. Oh, and so are laundry machines. Wash your clothes. And if you’re a girl, shave. Trust me.
(9)CRINKLED PAPER. I know this seems like a weird pet peeve but when you think of paper… don’t you like to picture wonderful flat white perfect paper that has no creases in it whatsoever? When someone crinkles or creases my paper, part of me dies a little. I HATE this.
(10)FAN GIRLS. Hate. Hate. HAATE. Okay, let me just get something straight with you. You may have an extreme fetish with one of the Jonas brothers (or all for that matter), Taylor Lautner, Edward Cullen (and no I don’t mean greasy gross Rob Pattinson), Justin Bieber, or one of the other random Disney stars… but I think you just need to know that… IT’S NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN. No, you won’t one day be standing in your local Starbucks when one of them walks in and is immediately captivated by your charm and good looks and consequently asks you to marry them. Dream all you want to. No one is stopping you. For example, I think Ryan Reynolds is the probably the hottest man ever. If I were to dream up my ideal perfect man he’d be pretty darn close. But he’s 30 and so no… we won’t marry. Or meet for that matter. You will NEVER end up with them. Just get over it. You should also know that if you gush about them to everyone they are probably tuning you out and day dreaming about suffocating you with your Taylor Lautner pillow. Also, we already know you love them. When you scream, it doesn’t bring you any closer to them. Stop trying to break your vocal chords AND our ear drums. Thanks.
There are many more pet peeves I have but I just figured I should stop with ten because pet peeves are annoying sometimes. Maybe it’s someone’s pet peeve for me to be talking about my pet peeves! Alright. Well I’m going to end my blog here.
Later!
