What pisses you off? My odd annoyances

A venting blog? Let's see what I can come up with. ;) As a matter of fact we share a few.

I HATE when people put their hands near my face and neck

For me I'm especially that way about people I don't know or hardly know. I've never had a makeover to this day because I don't like strangers touching my face.

I've also had my name mispelled and mispronounced, but it's my surname people tend to butcher and I'm not sure why. It's not that complicated. I would get really annoyed when I'd have to correct people, but it doesn't bother me much now.

A few I'd add:

*Nepotism: I didn't realize how much it would bother me until I saw it in action. The publisher of the magazine I work for laid off a woman who had been with the company for 16 years and did a great job, so he could give the job to his daughter. And to add insult to injury, he had the woman he fired train his daughter because she didn't know how to do the job. How humiliating!

*Stereotypes: They are annoying in general, but it's really irritating when somebody stereotypes you. I tend to be rather shy, and people tend to equate quiet people with being stuck up, or better yet, stupid.

I'll let someone else pick it up from here.

put their hands near my face and neck

Careful about that trip to Europe, then, when people tend to stand in your trousers to talk with you (if that isn't ever disconcerting) ...

My name is spelled with an H

Wanna know how I came by my blog handle? OK, you don't. Too bad. :) I figured if everybody was going to misspell "O'Kelly" (O'Kelley. Kelly. Kelley. Kielley. And I won't even include all the times I've been called O'Reill(e)y or O'Bri[a/e]n), I may as well spell it per the original Irish and give people a decent excuse.

I hate namecalling. Or any other strategy that turns a debate into a slanging match. Life's too damned short for us not to treat each other with common decency. Even if you might "win" an argument by so doing.

I hate Disney. The product mostly reinforces inappropriate stereotypes (the Lion King was dreadful in this regard). And any business that can pay its CEO more than the gross domestic product of the Dominican Republic is an outfit that doesn't need a dime of my money.

I hate Microsoft. See Disney, above. Especially when Powerpoint crashes. Again.

Y'know, this isn't getting me any closer to telling those regular readers what it is I do like. Maybe I should change that handle to "Ebeneezer". :)

I hate Microsoft.

Someone with some sense... ;)

Each person is unique

I roar like a lion when I yawn. I can't help it. I just think it's so damn funny each time I do it. Everybody else fails to see the humor. In fact, I think my wife is ready to leave me over it.

I don’t like hostile people. Moreover, I don’t like bloggers that will get into a mud slinging match at the drop of a hat. I have to agree with o ceallaigh on that one.

I do enjoy sneezing, though it sure as hell doesn’t feel like 1/12 of an orgasm to me. Or maybe it does…

How about people who sneeze so loud they expel every bit of gas in their heiney? Now that's annoying.

Ok, heres my list;

1. Going along with the "name thing", I hat when people assume it's all right to shorten your name, for example if your name is Victoria they think it's fine to call you Vicki.

2. Women who refer to themselves as bitches. It really bugs me. I am not a bitch, nor is my mother. I feel this is degrading.

3. Women who say "all men are assholes" and men who think all men are "bitches". Not true. There are some good ones out there. Hell, I hate lables peroid.

4. One of my all time wost pet peeves are slackers. Do you work with someone who doesn't "work" the entire time they are there? If you want a job then have one. If you don't want to work then stay home.

5. Idiot drivres who cut you off then slow down and turn. AAHHH!

6. People on bloggerparty who have been members for a week and complain that they aren't "making money" yet they have only posted two stupid blogs.

7. Nose hairs. Trim 'em if you got 'em. Please.

8. "Touchy-Feely" people. As I have said in my blogs, I work in a bar. I hate when customers try to hug me or topuch me in any way.

9. Ex's - Dude, we broke up for a reason. Get over it. I did.

10. People who have to F***ing swear every other F***ing word. It's really F**king ignorant. Find a new way to express yourself.

11. Anybody who says, "I Love You" on the first date. That is the biggest buzz kill in the entire world.

12. PEOPLE WHO WRITE IN ALL CAP'S BECAUSE THEY THINK IT'LL GET MORE ATTENTION. THEY DON'T REALIZE THAT IT'S ACTUALLY HARDER TO READ.

13. Bad fast food. Yes, I know. you get what you pay for, BUT fast food is expensive these days. If I pay $6 for a burger and fries I expect my fires to be fresh and my burger to be warm.

14. Mean Drunks - Ok, here's the thing, if you know you get violent when you drink whiskey, then for God's sake - Don't do it! Every time I work a bouncer has to break up a fight over something stupid becuase one guy had to be a jerk. It ruins everybody elses night.

I always feel better after a good venting/blog.
