9 Things I Hate About Everyone

1. People who point at their wrist while asking for the time.... I know where my watch is pal, where the hell is yours? Do I point at my crotch when I ask where the toilet is?

2 People who are willing to get off their ass to search the entire room for the T.V.. remote because they refuse to walk to the T.V. and change the channel manually.

3 When people say "Oh you just want to have your cake and eat it too". Damn right! What good is cake if you can't eat it?

4 When people say "it's always the last place you look". Of course it is. Why the hell would you keep looking after you've found it? Do people do this? Who and where are they? Gonna Kick their asses!

5 When people say while watching a film "did you see that?". No Loser, I paid $12 to come to the cinema and stare at the damn floor.

6 People who ask "Can I ask you a question?".... Didn't really give me a choice there, did ya sunshine?

7. When something is 'new and improved!'. Which is it? If it's new, then there has never been anything before it. If it's an improvement, then there must have been something before it, couldn't be new.

8 When people say "life is short". What the hell?? Life is the longest damn thing anyone ever does!! What can you do that's longer?

9 When you are waiting for the bus and someone asks "Has the bus come yet?". If the bus came would I be standing here, dumbass?

I HATE WHEN PEOPLE WHO ARE CHOKING GRAB THEIR THROATS TO INDICATE IT. LET GO AND MAYBE YOU WOULDN'T BE CHOKING. IT'S THE SYMBOLS WE CREATE, AND THE BODY LANGUAGE WE DEVELOP. IT SURE WOULD COME IN HANDY TO MAKE THE GESTURE IF THE PERSON YOU ASK HAPPENED TO BE DEAF OR MENTALLY DEFICIENT.

ONE THING ABOUT THIS THAT IS FUNNY, IS WHEN YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE THE PERSON HAS A WATCH ON, YET STILL ASK IF THEY HAVE THE TIME, RATHER THAN JUST ASK WHAT THE TIME IS. CLEARLY THEY KNOW THE TIME, AS NEARLY NO ONE WOULD WEAR A WATCH THAT DIDN'T ACCURATELY KEEP TIME.

2 People who are willing to get off their ass to search the entire room for the T.V.. remote because they refuse to walk to the T.V. and change the channel manually.

YOU HAVE TO FIND IT SOMETIME. CHANGING IT MANUALLY IS ONLY A BAND-AID SOLUTION. ALSO MANY TV'S ARE SET UP SUCH THAT IT IS ACTUALLY DIFFICULT TO TUNE CHANNELS FROM THE CONTROLS ON THE SET OR VCR/DVD MACHINE.

3 When people say "Oh you just want to have your cake and eat it too". Damn right! What good is cake if you can't eat it?

IT'S A FIGURE OF SPEECH DATING BACK TO MARIE ANTOINETTE. THERE ARE A LOT OF THINGS ONE CAN HAVE, YET NOT BE ABLE TO ENJOY THE FULL USE OF.

4 When people say "it's always the last place you look". Of course it is. Why the hell would you keep looking after you've found it? Do people do this? Who and where are they? Gonna Kick their asses!

THIS HAS MERIT, BUT I BELIEVE IT IS MORE OFTEN PHRASED AS "THE LAST PLACE YOU'D EVER THINK TO LOOK".

5 When people say while watching a film "did you see that?". No Loser, I paid $12 to come to the cinema and stare at the damn floor.

SOME PEOPLE AREN'T COORDINATED ENOUGH TO REACH FOR THEIR DRINK/SNACKS/PURSE AND MAINTAIN THEIR FOCUS ON THE SCREEN. ALSO, WANDERING EYES CAN COME UPON THINGS TO LOOK AT OR ENGAGE IN APART FROM THE FILM.AND IT ISN'T STIPULATED THAT WE ARE IN A THEATRE WHEN THE QUESTION IS ASKED. MANY TIMES AT HOME OR AT ANOTHER'S HOME, I WILL NOT BE LOOKING DURING A CRUCIAL MOMENT.

6 People who ask "Can I ask you a question?".... Didn't really give me a choice there, did ya sunshine?

THIS IS MERE POLITENESS, IT IS ONLY COINCIDENTAL AND CONVENTIONAL THAT THE REQUEST FOR PERMISSION IS FORMED AS A QUESTION. I COULD SAY "I'M ABOUT TO ASK YOU A QUESTION, AND I HOPE THIS IS ALRIGHT BY YOU AND THAT YOU WILL ANSWER IT AND NOT BE PUT OFF WHEN I ASK IT."

7. When something is 'new and improved!'. Which is it? If it's new, then there has never been anything before it. If it's an improvement, then there must have been something before it, couldn't be new.

SO THE NEW 2008 CADILLAC XLR IS NOT AT ALL SIMILAR TO THE 2007? OR IF IT IS, THEN IT ISN'T NEW? MAKING AN IMPROVEMENT ON SOMETHING CAN INDEED CREATE SOMETHING NEW. THE WASHING MACHINE WAS AN IMPROVEMENT ON THE WASHBOARD, AND THE AGITATOR-STYLE MACHINE WAS AN IMPROVEMENT OVER THE OLDER STYLES, BUT BOTH INNOVATIONS MADE A NEW PRODUCT.

8 When people say "life is short". What the hell?? Life is the longest damn thing anyone ever does!! What can you do that's longer?

RELATIVE. IT IS THE LONGEST THING ANY ONE EVER DOES, BUT IN TERMS OF HISTORY AND PREHISTORY, ONE'S LIFE IS QUITE INSIGNIFICANT AND FLEETING. AND THE SAYING IS NOT USED TO COMPARE LIFE TO ANYTHING ELSE ONE PARTICIPATES IN AS BEING LONGER.

9 When you are waiting for the bus and someone asks "Has the bus come yet?". If the bus came would I be standing here, dumbass?

BECAUSE MORE THAN ONE BUS ROUTE NEVER GOES TO THE SAME STOP, RIGHT? IF I WANT THE 9, AND YOU ARE WAITING FOR THE 14, BUT THE 9 INDEED HAS COME AND GONE, YOU WOULD STILL BE STANDING THERE, AND MY BUS WOULD ACTUALLY HAVE ALREADY COME. THE QUESTION ITSELF IS POORLY-FORMED, BUT MOST OF CONVERSATIONAL ENGLISH LACKS THE NECESSARY PRECISION TO CONVEY THE INTENDED INFORMATION OR ELICIT THE RELEVANT ANSWERS.

no offense tom, because i know you are just posting this stuff that you found on a site or in your email, and don't in fact stand by the statements. a lot of these comments are ranty or misinterpreted though, and i felt the need to retaliate. love and kisses
