I just realised we were still on the 2013 Pet Hates thread - here is another one. And I had a few!
- Some TV programme I just watched called 'Suits' - People addressing me as 'cock' (it's a thing you call young men or boys where I live - it's like 'son' - but it sounds just like 'cock') - Hannah Montana. I saw some of it and now I can totally understand why Miley Cyrus went all daft. I would too if I were in that. - Anna Faris - Umbrellas that break in bad weather - even though the whole point of umbrellas is to protect against that exact thing. - David Tennant's overacting. I think now he's genuinely forgotten how not to do it. - The TV show 'Benidorm' - Russia - Other people's baby photos and updates about their babies' progress. - Not Ryan Reynolds anymore! I haven't seen him in ages and I feel sorry for him. - Big Brother - Adverts where there are children behaving like grownups and it's supposed to be funny. - Anything in media where old people are meant to be funny just for swearing or talking about sex, as though the very idea of an old person behaving like a member of society is comical. I hate that. I'm really not looking forward to being of an age where everyone in the world has decided that you're to be ignored or smiled at, and if you attempt to do anything other than talk about a war or knit then you are inherently laughable, like a cat trying to sit at a table with the real people.

Now, There's nothing wrong with a cat sitting at a table. My cat always used to sit with us. She shared my beans and mashed potato.

Rude and obnoxious people who ironically cause real distraction by protesting against perceived distraction on buses. (Yes I am still irked by that thing the other night.)
Also hypocrites and people who treat their so-called friends like shit and then act like they did nothing wrong (stupid co-worker and various other people).
Arrogance and ignorance and all forms of discrimination.
Various things about myself.

Not really a pet hate persei, but a bit of a WTF. Whenever a gal on Facebook posts a picture of herself in a bikini or other revealing attire, and dudes responding by saying "Nice tits!" or "Oh nice, I do believe I see cleavage!"
For Chrissake, didn't Seinfeld ever tell you not to go for the easy joke? Photos like that are just asking for something subversively funny to say. You have to be commenting on something random in the background. Like if the walls are painted a certain color you comment with something like "Those green walls remind me of the spinach I forgot to make. Better do that before the officer's club gets here and kicks my ass." or "Your fung seui may be a little off balance, JUST SAYING."
Or if there's something truly worth noting in the background that you can't not be a bastard about it, then say it. Something like "I'm not sure I'd be comfortable for any reason with a Yanni poster in my room." You know, if there's a Yanni poster their room. But it also works if it's a poster of a guy that may look like Yanni, then no one can fault you for it!

LOL. I get the biggest kick out of deliberately missing the point of people's posts sometimes. My cousin is prone to angry statuses and one time she's warning off some girl she thought was after her bf, but didn't say any names. So I apologized for the offending action, amusing myself mightily!
Pet hate - When I sleep in, the day gets shorter.

I hate waking up with a headache already fermenting in my poor innocent head... dammit... day hasn't even started yet and already I'm hurting. This sucks. And I found out Linders starts his shift at the restaurant earlier than I thought today, so I have him for less time than I thought. Dammit. Linders deprivation is painful. Need more hugs now... *wanders off to find Linders*

When you meet a girl in a bikini who has a Yanni poster, you marry her.
Clint - I now have even less of a clue what you're on about!
