I think I read somewhere that statistically, you have a higher chance of being bitten by a shark than you do of winning the lottery. Funny- nobody pays money to have a try at having a chunk taken out of them  Anyyyyyway keeping on topic... I hate not being able to get a job because the economy's so bad nobody is hiring teenagers- there are adults who actually need work that are desperate enough to take minimum wage jobs. and being financially dependent sucks  |

And now...here's some of that list I've been talking about...
1. When a store has, like 27 lanes and only 2 are opened, so "traffic" is backed up (and there's always someone in front of me who needs to buy some oversized item that needs a price-check or who's check/credit card doesn't go through). What's the point of having that many if you're only going to use a few at a time?
2. When someone I don't know tries to strike up a conversation with me, or thinks it's okay to make a comment about something. Dude, I don't know you. I've never seen you before in my life and I'll probably never see you again. I have no desire to strike up a conversation. You're forty/fifty-some-odd years old, trying to flirt and it's creepy. Okay? It's creepy.
3. "Personal lubricant"/Natural Male Enhancement" commercials. Honestly. Do we need to see that on television?
4. Textspeak, leetspeak, random capitalizations. Why do people become ignorant when they're on the Internet? You're 30-something years old with a career. Spell properly.
5. Public displays of affection. Look, I’m happy you’re so in love. Doesn’t mean I want to see it! Tell her hello, don’t lick her face! Good grief! Why don’t you just strip down and get it on right there in front of everybody, already? You’re already giving us a floor show.
6. People who think it's an insult to be called "gay". Frankly, I find it insulting that you find it so insulting. There are worse things to be called.
And that's just a few... Enjoy.

Textspeak, leetspeak, random capitalizations. Why do people become ignorant when they're on the Internet? You're 30-something years old with a career. Spell properly. I definitely share that one! And just in case you're worried, my comment above was a joke - I'm not like that at all. |

One I was reminded of in the gym today - people who shower in the gym without pulling the shower curtain across! They seem to think that the shower curtain is there to preserve their modesty. It's actually there so people can walk to the toilet fully clothed without getting soaked!
I'm sure there'll be more to follow.

A list of my annoyances: 1) My older brother living in my parents' house for free and he never graduated from high or got his G.E.D, I pay rent and graduated... 2) The lottery, but I'll keep playing the same numbers until I win something... 3) Discrimination ...toward anyone - just because people may be of a different race, origin, or religion doesn't mean that they're not human, think about that before judging someone...even making fun of people because of their weight or height is WRONG! 4) What people say about Barack Obama...saying he was America's biggest mistake, think about that...who really f**ked up America's economy? Give the man some time will ya? He can't do it all over night, y'know... I deleted the original version of #3 because Erin made a very good point  |

I definitely get annoyed with people who make comments like, "Well, come on, Barack, fix the economy" or some sh*t like that. Rome wasn't built in a day, as the saying goes.
Incidentally, Kathryn, you stated that you hate discrimination against others and yet you, yourself just discriminated against Republicans. Tolerance is a two-way street. They're not all bad. And John McCain is, like, 100, so he has some very old-fashioned views.

You know,...if I felt like it, I'd totally...get mad. I don't know. I'll get back to you. I'm tired.
Nothing is really getting to me today. I've been pretty content, lately. ...Actually, it's pissing me off.
Great. Now I'm bitter again.
That's better.

I was holding back because I didn't want to go to prison for busting that guy over the head with a beer mug

Here's another...
The girl I like telling me about her sex life with some guy(pretty much,as shallow as it sounds...if its not with me I don't want to hear it)
...then she tells me how in love they are(then some odd hour or so later tells me she doesn't think he's being faithful or is doing something stupid that AGAIN I don't want to hear about) and then to top it all off,this same girl decides to start giving me dating advice....
and when I tell her to chill with all the crap she tells me that I don't need to know...she laughs and says "I need someone to talk to and thats you" and completely disregards my discomfort.
*sigh* It's annoying and she's not the only one who does it...other people...friends of mine...just let it all out and its...ugh...

I'm more bitter than annoyed but the person I like obviously likes me too, but says I should settle down with someone else.  I mean...even Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder could see that this person likes me. Considering I know this person better than they do themself, I think we would get along well as a couple....but I also dont want to lose them as a friend whom I'm really close to. |

Schoolmates who shout things from their car windows at me. I walk home, because I live on the same street as my school, and it's a waste to drive, risk getting my car dinged, and it'd be just stupid to pay $90 to park at school.
In the 10 minutes that it takes me to walk home, can I please just not have any attention on me? I prefer to be left ALONE.

Here's another that can be added to my list...the fact that my mother cannot comprehend what I am saying about saving money...I told her that if I can keep the money that I have in there now ($220 - $260, after my lil bro pays me back) I'd have $954 before their rent is taken out and my phone bill payment...she just b****ed about getting her rent
