These are a few of the most annoying things…

To start things off, my number one peeve is when someone promises and tells me repeatedly that they are going to do something and then never do.
I extremely hate any kind of miscommunication, it only takes a few minutes to say exactly what you mean instead of thinking everyone will understand what you are saying by being vague.
I really have a hard dealing with people who are completely consumed by technology. You know those kinds of people who immediately whip out their phone if they are standing in any kind of line or have to answer a text right when one was sent to their phone. It’s as if boredom is the answer to see what’s trending.
I absolutely hate when I have been asked how my day was and I go on to explain my typical, ordinary day, when in the middle I look at the person and realize they have not heard a word I have said because they are preoccupied with something else. What was the point asking me in the first place?
I really dislike when I am receiving a lecture from a hypocrite, mainly pertaining to my parents. It’s not like they never made mistakes when they were younger, but they act like it’s the worst thing in the world.  

Those girls who go out to party with next to no clothing on in freezing degree weather, its okay you won’t get frostbite or hypothermia. And these same girls have no respect for themselves; they get treated as commodities and are shocked when they are treated this way.
Those people that constantly talk about what types of alcohol they prefer over others to get drunk off of or those that seem to only care about partying.  
Those people that use cuss words to make themselves seem “cool”, but in reality they are making themselves look highly unintelligent.
Those type of guys who hardly work out at the gym, but to only show off their muscles or those girls that come into the gym with their hair completely done and have on a full face of makeup—who are you trying to impress?
Those people who are either fake or passive-aggressive; they say one thing to you but secretly mean something else, as if you were supposed to understand their wildly confusing language.
Those girls that use “like” about 20 times in one sentence.
Those people that are trying to be hipsters who wear Ray-ban eyeglasses that don’t actually need them to see.


Basically, I really hate anything that happens to me that turns me into a hot mess: doing my hair and thinking it looks perfect until I go out into the wind and then looks it like I have been electrocuted, accidentally spilling coffee on a white top, ripping a new pair of leggings in the worst place possible, etc.
I hate working on a project for hours on end, only to realize I did the project completely wrong from the very beginning and have to start over.
I absolutely hate awkward silence, especially in a car for 3 hours, with people I just met and feeling like I need to fill the silence with chit-chat for the entire ride.
I really dislike thinking about something I forgot before I leave anywhere and then randomly realize what it was I forgot in the middle of the day.  
I am thoroughly repulsed by pickles- smell, taste, consistency, etc.
I really dislike how you have to structure a speech in communication studies; it feels unnatural to rehearse something that fits neatly into a layout.
I hate the idea of selling yourself in order to become successful.
I also hate feeling like I need to give somebody an explanation for simply reacting to an emotion.

  1. Wow I can really feel your passion in this! Any of these would make good future essay topics.

  2. This is a great list. You really put a lot of thought into this, and I totally get where you are coming from on most of these. Except pickles, I love pickles.

  3. Pickles: solid.

    So, I'd say try to cut this down and pick the ones that are most alive. And I want to see this stuff, too. Our big goal together, DD, should be in painting pictures for the reader. So, what's that girl in the cold actually look like? Make her a person not a category and then ask yourself if you enjoy reading what you've written more.
