- John Mayer -- Really? It's like listening to Boring and Blah's even more bland lovechild. Plus, he's kind of skeezy.
- Crocs -- I do not want to hear how fucking comfortable they are. They are hideous. Wearing them makes you look, from knees down, like Bozo the Clown taking a turn at gardening on a lazy Saturday.
- Thomas Kinkade -- The painter of generic, out-of-focus, hokey landscapes and cottages. How does this man sell anything ever?
- Footless leggings -- There is never, ever a reason to wear them. Ever. Ever. Ever. I'm willing to shed blood over this.
- Pet costumes/clothing -- My dog has a sweater because he weighs 8 pounds and shivers when the thermometer registers below 65 degrees, not because I think he looks cute in it. It's functional. The pumpkin costume/faux Burberry rain coat/"I'm the boss" T-shirt your dog is wearing does not count as functional, therefore it is stupid. And kind of nauseating.
- Entitled vs. titled -- Books are titled. CDs are titled. Plays are titled. THEY ARE NOT ENTITLED. I am entitled to judge you if you use "entitled" incorrectly.
- Vera Bradley -- Quilted old lady tote bags that are supposed to be hip for young girls? Um, no.
- Throwing cigarette butts out the car window -- Hi. I totally respect your right to ruin yourself by smoking. Please respect me by not throwing your butts on the ground. I'm sure you have some sort of receptacle in your car that could hold the butts, so why don't you do both of us a favor and not tempt me to stick them up your nose?
- Lamps vs. overhead lights -- As long as I can read, I don't really give a shit what is producing the light. I am alone in this opinion among the two people who live in my house. *Rolls eyes*

THANK YOU on "entitled" vs. "titled." I thought I was the only anal person who gets irritated when "entitled" is used wrong.
And good call on cigarette butts out the window. Or cigarette butts anywhere. You wouldn't just dump an empty soda can on the ground or a used tissue, so why do smokers think it's ok to throw their butts wherever they please?
HA! I have to say though, I have come up with a use for footless tights: wearing with knee-high boots. I like to wear little socks with my boots because tights/hose make my feet sweat - footless tights allow me to wear tights AND socks. This is the ONLY use for them though.
I agree wholeheartedly with EVERYTHING..especially crocs and John mayer. BLEH. But I can't stand overhead lights...they make me feel icky. Gimme a lamp!
