Things we hate!

1. Small minded bigoted people.
2. Sauerkraut
3. Drivers who cut in front of you and slow down.
4. The salsa commercial where the woman drinks the salsa water-ick!
5. War
6. Leaders who claim to speak "for the people" but ignore the fact that often "the people" disagree strongly with them.
7. Homophobia
8. High heels
9. People who don't understand why Ivo is more than "just a cat".
10. SUVs
11. This is from my personal face-to-face experience, and does not reflect on anyone here on TCS: People who move to a new country by choice but repeatedly put that new country down. We have a postdoc in our lab from the Czech Republic. Daily, she talks about how stupid, how thoughtless, how lazy, and how uncultured Americans are. Yet, she CHOSE to come here, is engaged to an American, and is trying to get her license to practice medicine here in America. I just don't get how she can have it both ways.

Here are mine:
1: People who interrupt me while I'm speaking (My Dad does this ALL THE TIME!)
2: Rude people...the ones who apparently DON'T know what words "Thank You!" means!
3: People who think that since I'm a girl I have no brains
4: People from certain kinds of religions who constantly knock on my door wanting to pray with me and for me to join their religious group. I don't have problems with them for the most part...it's when I've told the same people over and over that I'm Lutheran and not interested. Don't want to offend anyone here..if so, I'm sorry!
5: SPIDERS! They scare me to death! I literally stop breathing when I see one...I seem to hold my breath until I know their dead! Ewww!
6: Bad Drivers..need I say more?
7: Liver and Onions..together anyway. I like onions on different things, but can't do liver. The smell just gags me! YUCK!
8: Crybaby Adults
9: Smelly people. Don't they know how cheap soap, water and deodrant is?
10: Legs of Pants/Jean that shrink! I know I'm not growing anymore (well not upward anyway..maybe outward!LOL!), so I know it's not me. It drives me crazy when I put on a pair that look like high water pants!

Jeez...now that I've reviewed my 10, it sounds like a People Hater! I swear I'm not!

I hate putting words in someone else's mouth, but I would assume that Angel is referring to the immigrants who refuse to learn English,

I just learned in my Foundations of Teaching English as a Second Language class,that most immigrants speak English very well within 10 years of arriving in the US. Learning a new language is hard, but most people do it. Of course, there are those few who just don't care.

My list:
1. Spiders and most insects
2. People who don't take responsibility for their actions
3. Telemarketers
4. Credit cards
5. Intolerance
6. Drivers who don't use their turn signals
7. The Jerry Springer Show
8. Reality TV (except Joe Millionaire)
9. Most American sit-coms
10.Whining

Aside: Brenda, I know it's tough to learn a second language especially later in life. The people who are trying, who are working hard for a better life, those are the same people as our ancestors. It's the ones who don't care, who don't try, and who expect everyone to make an exception for them - those are the ones who bother me. I'm really not just talking about immigrants (well, learning the language, kind of). There are people of every background, race, creed who are like this and I can't stand any of them.

I LOVE Cheescake. What do you not like about it?

1 cold
2 snow
3 work
4 public transit
5 cold
6 snow
7 work
8 lima beans
9 cold
10 snow

lol Adrienne, what are you trying to say???

Ady, methinks you need to move to Florida!

i feel exactly the same way adrienne does. nz doesnt have as much snow as the us does and i still cannot get used to it. i only like snow when its for skiing, and i love to ski. but imo snow should stay on the mountain.

Well, hate is such a strong word, that I really dislike using it. Plus, snow, work, cold, lima beans and public transit are all evil.

I see myself more as a Carribean girl then a Florida chick Heidi!

1. bad drivers!
2. people who don't respect animals as feeling beings
3. rude people
4. liars
5. selfish, selfcentered people who are not considerate!
6. bratty whiny kids!
7. manipulative ex boyfriends!
8. radio stations that play the same crap over and over!
9. having no money and only be able to pay your bills
10. people who play thier music to loud: including the ones that drive around at 2 am when I'm sleeping and waking me up because they want to blow thier eardrums on the bass they've cranked up in thier car!

See a trend? I must really hate people, thank god I have cats!

Oh and I forgot the most important one:

Men who think that just because we are women, we enjoy picking up after them and cleaning the house and it's our job because we are women!

oh yeah!

i know. i'm a wierdo. EVERYONE i know loves cheesecake. it's just that it's so rich and sweet it overpowers me, i guess.

i used to hate cheesecake when i was a kid because i thought it was a cake made out of cheese and while i love cheese, i couldnt imagine cheese in a cake and it kind of grossed me out.

i am not a big fan of cream cheese, so that may be part of it. i can only eat cream chese if it sun dried tomato or veggie flavored. if it is sweet -- forget it.

1. People that indulge in their filthy, disgusting habits in public. (nail biting, chewing with their mouth open, popping gum)
2. My sister
3. Bullies of any kind
4. rap, hip hop, that annoying caterwauling that I suppose is vocalizing (the girl on American Idol that murdered "Over the Rainbow" comes to mind) that mind numbing noise that people make with turntables
5. pop country music sung by generic country bimbos and guys with big hats
6. those same kind of immigrants mentioned in previous posts
7. bad coffee
8. people that ask the same stupid question over and over trying to get a different answer when there isn't one
9. liars
10.snoring

I may be repeating some here, but this is my list:

1. hypocrites
2. back stabbers (especially ones who are real nice to your face)
3. child/animal molestors/abusers
4. living paycheck to paycheck with not much savings or extra to spend
5. cockroaches
6. bad hair days :tounge2:
7. dieting and not being the weight I want to be
8. the moral decay of society
9. judgemental people
10. having to get up early in the morning and go to work

1. The new Ontario cirriculum. Can somebody tell me why I'm in grade 11, and working out of a OAC (grade 13) textbook and it's supposed to be 'review'?
2. Parents who use me as a free babysitter. (I teach childrens' painting programs at the library...I've even had parents say "Oh, Janie doesn't want to paint, but I have work to do tonight, so just let her sit in the corner..." when there's 5 other kids that really want to paint but can't register cuz the program is full! (Sorry, that just happened again last night and it ticked me off.))
3. Math. It just doesn't make any sense to me.
4. Prejudice.
5. Stereotypes.
6. Rap and Hip Hop.
7. People that drive like it's summer when it's winter.
8. RENOVATING! GAH! My house is a mess.
9. People that expect everyone to be the same, the whole "cookie cutter world" idea.
10. Winter.
