#11: Describe 10 pet peeves you have.
I
realized today that I've always kind of known what pet peeves are... but I've
never really looked up the definition of it to see if my thinking is correct. So
here's the definition of a pet peeve: a particular and often continual annoyance.
1) People who don't like
country music
- I'm sorry, but these people annoy me simply because I
absolutely love country music. I understand when city slickers don't like
country music, but when you grow up in a rural town, in the country, in the
boonies, and you don't like country music... there's gotta be something wrong
with either your DNA or the way your parents raised you. (I'm only mildly
kidding.)
2) When people don't put a new toilet paper roll on the bar when
the previous roll is done, especially if they just place a new roll on the sink
counter beside the toilet
- Like seriously? It
takes like 10 seconds... you can literally do it while you're still on the can!
And if you just place it on the sink country beside? LIKE SERIOUSLY? You just
couldn't muster up enough energy to put it on the bar too? (Note:
sarcasm)
3) When men don't clean the sink after shaving
- My brother does this
all the time at home! I go into the bathroom, wanting to brush my teeth, and
there's a billion little tiny hairs awaiting me in the sink...
gross
4) Surprise raisins
You know what I mean.
You're about to eat a really delicious-looking muffin and you bite into it
and... ugh, a raisin. (Especially when you were expecting a chocolate
chip.)
5) Referencing a book in the Bible called Revelations or Psalms
- It's
Revelation. It's one revelation. Not multiple. And you're often only quoting
from one psalm, not the whole book of Psalms. If you're quoting from more than
one psalm, then go for it, say Psalms... but if not, it's Psalm. Don't pluralize
what ain't pluralized.
6) Your and You're
- Oh just please... it's
only okay to get those two mixed up if you're in elementary school. If you're 20
and still mixing those two up, that's just not acceptable. (It's okay to mix
them up from time to time because everyone makes mistakes, but every single
time... not okay.)
7) pEoPlE wHo tYpe lIkE tHiS oNlInE
- It doesn't happen much
anymore now that I'm not in junior high and MSN is no longer popular, but it
irritates me beyond belief. Plus it takes like 10 times the amount of effort as
just typing normally does.
8) People who only listen
to people like Nicki Minaj and Ke$ha and still claim to be "into music"
- Like
seriously? That ain't music. That's just noise. It's not even nice-sounding
noise.
9) Bitter singles
- Like seriously? Enjoy
life! I understand that it's hard sometimes, especially when it seems like every
other person your age is getting married, but please don't tweet about it and
don't put it all over FB. Other people don't want to hear about how you'll be
"forever alone" or about your never-ending relationship with a wine bottle and a
pint of ice cream.
10) People who tweet every 5 minutes all day long
- It's
okay to take a break from tweeting to have a life.
Well, that's a side of me
you probably haven't heard before...
