Pet Peeves

Due to a particular instance that occurred late yesterday night, and still has me in bed all peeved this early morning, I’m going to attempt to fight the effects of it by blogging about it. Here are some pet peeves of mine in no particular order. And yes, the first one is what inspired this post.

  1. When talking on the phone to me, do not hold a conversation with a person in the room with you. I didn’t answer your phone call to listen to you converse with another person. I took the time to pick up your call, so have the courtesy to converse with me.
  2. I don’t like it when people pronounce Iraq “I-RACK” and Iran “I-RAN”. That’s how George W. Bush/ignorant people pronounce it. It’s “EE-ROCK” and “EE-RON”. Do you want me to shove you in that category?
  3. Justin Beiber
  4. I hate it when girls act like they own everything and that everyone should fall to their knees everytime they come into the room. For example: One time I very obviously made an effort out of respect to say hi to a girl I have no inkling of like for and she blatantly ignores that greeting and acts as if I wasn’t standing next to her saying hi.
  5. What drives me absolutely insane is when a guy looks at a girl like they are a piece of meat. No, that will not help you get into my pants. Go prey on some slutty chick. You two probably deserve each other.
  6. Ridiculous sounding abbreviations. Abobo for abortion. Apropro for appropriate. You know those, right? Sure, I use probs, but it’s usually in text messages and light conversation. I know I’ll be called out for being hypocritical, but the key word in this peeve is “ridiculous,” kids.
  7. The acronym LOL. Are you really “laughing out loud”?
  8. Platinum blonde hair and a spray-on tan/tanning bed tan. Self-explanatory.
  9. Cigarettes. Haven’t you seen lungs of a smoker? Don’t you realize the smoke I inhale from your cigarette does more damage to me than it does you?
  10. I am not a fan of the hippy braided headband/wrap around the forehead.
  11. People trying to tell me that I’m basically a white girl really pisses me off. I want you to spend an hour with my family and then see what you say.
  12. The words “nationality” and “ethnicity” are always used the wrong way. People, nationality is the country you were born in, e.g. America for me, therefore making me AMERICAN. Ethnicity is what your mommy and daddy gave you- your genes. So my mommy is Malaysian and daddio is Chinese, making me Malaysian-Chinese.
  13. Nickelback
  14. Kids who commit to a political party because their parents vote that way.
  15. OVERSIZED T-SHIRT + LEGGINGS + UGGS are NOT an outfit. Get that into your brains, girls.
  16. The inefficiency of jails and amount of government money they suck up.
  17. Hummers
