The following people, organizations and inanimate objects have, through repeated disruptions in my chi, earned a spot on my now-documented list of "stuff that kinda bothers me".
Said list:
- Baby clothes with snaps (they allll have snaps)... or worse yet - real buttons... or even worse - real buttons on the back of the outfit... or outfits dipped in asbestos and held together with rusty staples (apologies if you gave Lydia such an outfit for Christmas). Try slipping one of these onto an increasingly uncomfortable child who is ready to wail at any minute, in the pitch black, while 7/8 asleep. Moms, Dads - amiright?!?
- Overly personal or dramatic Facebook status updates, like "So-and-So is RIP Grandma, we'll miss you so much!!!" or "So-and-So is glad to know who her real friends are. I HATE YOU STUCK-UP BITCHEZ! Aaaaargh!!!". I'm paraphrasing, but not much.
- Diving Swedish goaltenders (bork bork) and international hockey officiating.
- Nova Scotia Power - no discussion needed.
- The Toronto sports media, and Mats Sundin, for inundating me and the rest of the viewing public with far more pointless Sundin-related updates and speculation than any of us could possibly care about. Remember when he gets injured in a few weeks that I called it.
- DELL laptop support. Don't get me started.
- EDIT: to include the remorseless shitting machines who monopolize the one stall in our office. This should be moved to the top of the list.
Fortunately, my 2008 list of positive experiences is large in both size and significance, thereby offsetting the nagging mental impact from the above items and greatly reducing the chances of my, tic, snapping, tic.
Smiles.

My Pet peeve is face book in general. Everything about face book is in essence dorky. The people are dorky the, comments are dorky,and the people, the boring people with their boring pictures. I know this may/will offend some/all. I don't care I still have no facebook account, and will continue to not have a facebook account. I have no interest in looking at a bunch of boring recently taken photographs of so and so's trip to Cuba, or pictures of your kitties, or of peoples thanksgiving dinner or wahtever. A direct comparison can be made to youtube do you know how many thousands and thousands and thousands of stupid boring unfunny videos are on youtube. Thank you internet for bring a torrent of mediocrity to my fingertips.
There, I said it.
P.S. I also hate Mats Sundin and news related to him.
Meat - please sign your name to your rants.
here's a FB status to add to your list of annoying FB statuses:
"Nicole is sitting here."
WOW!! who the eff cares!
maybe if you knew her, you'd know how much more aggravating this status is.
