Tomorrow is My Birthday

To celebrate my birthday eve and my last night of being 44 years old, I have compliled a list of 45 things that annoy me, in no particular order. WHAT?


Inexplicable traffic

Stupid people

Especially the ones who don’t know they are stupid

Any store running out of any product that I am there to buy

Yipping dogs

Bullies

Gummy anything

The stench of patchouli when I walk into a store

Pedestrians who, yes, have the right to walk across my lane of traffic in a parking lot, but do so on the diagonal, in slow motion, with swagger

Fox News

Poorly filled out facial hair

Country music

Fake laughter

People who write checks in the grocery store line

Unsolicited hugs

Walmart

Walmart shoppers

Ambulance chasers

Target’s return policy

The fact that the person in front of me at the ATM or postal kiosk has no idea how to use the machine

Whale tails, you know what I mean

6th grade math homework

Psychobabble

The brunette actresses on Disney/Nickelodeon that all look alike and have basically the same show on different sets. I think there are, like, four of them

People who say “li-barry”

And “pacific” instead of “specific”

Anyone who corrects my grammar on Facebook

The U.S. tax code

Aging

Undisciplined children

And even more so, their parents

Really cute fridge magnets that aren’t actually strong enough to hold anything on the fridge

Close talkers

Logging on to Facebook and discovering things have changed, yet again

Printers. All of them.

More than a 20 minute wait at any restaurant

Justin Beiber

Seeing teenage girls at Carlie’s school in their PAJAMA PANTS

Overseas tech support/customer service

That tickle in the back of your throat that is, like, SHIT, you know you will be sick within the week

Seeing a “missed call” but they didn’t leave a message

Candles that smell like food

People that smell like smoke

The way that Carlie will destroy any package of food that she opens

Plastic mini blinds
