1) Abbreviations. They annoy me SOOO much. I think I just lose respect for people online if they start saying things like “lol” and “ttyl”. I can not stand it at all when people shorten words. If I see another sign for a low carb sandwich, I might just jump over the counter and rip it to shreds.
2) Stupid new slang words or words that all the sudden mean other things. Oh MAN. This sort of thing REALLY makes me mad. Every time somebody says the word “mad” as a descriptive word, my blood starts to boil.
3) People who are phonies. I really can’t stand it when people obviously are acting like somebody other than themselves. This includes girls who hardly every wear makeup starting to plaster their faces with it and kids who swear just for the sake of swearing. Darn- there I go, sounding like Holden Caulfield. I couldn’t stand that book. Add that to the list of things that I can’t stand: reading about angsty teenagers.
4) Reading about angsty teenagers. I think this is why Harry Potter and The Order of The Phoenix is my least favorite Harry Potter book. I was so sick of his raging hormones even before the book really started. Please, somebody, just slap him!
5) People who try to act mature…… but you can tell that they are SO not.
6) When kids younger than 12 talk about going on dates like it’s totally normal for kids their age. “Oh yeah, they’re dating.” – “Oh, yeah, they just broke up.” Sometimes the people can be older than 12 and it irritates me, I guess it depends on the people.
7) People who act scared of something just to act cool. “Ohmigawsh! Barney scares me!”
8) Boring days.
9) When people say that they hate something just to act cool. “I HATE Harry Potter. –No, I’ve never read it.” – “I HATE Britney Spears.” — “I HATE Hilary Duff, she’s too famous.”
10) People who try to sound overly opinionated or intellectual. This includes people who talk endlessly about politics, but you can tell that they just want to sound smart.
Dern– now I feel kind of guilty for writing this stuff down. If you are one of the above, don’t be upset! I’m just really picky! Anyway, I think I’ll post more later.

Reading this made me so frustrated because almost everything you have on your list would also be on my list, especially #1… and #2. I might as well point out #3 while I’m at it.
Thing I don’t like.
- Traffic
- People who stop in a doorway (like coming off a plane or entering a store etc.)to have a conversation and makes it impassable for everyone else.
- When you buy something BRAND NEW and it doesn’t work or does not work as advertised.
- Buyers on eBay who don’t seem to read the listing before they buy then post negative feedback because you won’t meet their demands. “Err…can I pay with a check”…No, it says PayPal only idiot!
- Telemarketers and door-to-door solicitors (that includes Jehovah’s Witness).
- Going to the store to buy something listed in the sale paper to find out they are out-of-stock.
- Neighbor’s who let their dogs bark outside all night.
Of course, that’s not everything.
