Annoyance...

Are there things that just annoy you to no end? I mean, things that just make your skin crawl, and your blood boil when you think about them? I think we've all got something that gets on our nerves. Some of mine, for instance, is the Bob Corker commercials. For those of you who don't live in Tennessee, you'll have no idea what I'm talking about, but you're VERY fortunate. Bob Corker is the Republican candidate for senate. Ok, yeah, ya'll know I'm a die hard Democrat, but that's not the reason I despise Bob Corker so much. On EVERY one of his ads, he brags to no end about himself- and not a damn thing to do with government. It's always, "I started my own business out of a truck at age 16"- wonderful, here's a cookie- now tell me about what you're going to do for ME. The man drives me nuts. If he beats Harold Ford Jr. I think I'll shoot myself.

While we're on commercials, how about the Vlasic Pickle commercial? Cute kids, but when the little girl says, "It's a Valasic Pickle" I want to scream- it's a VLASIC pickle, not a VALASIC pickle- Ugh!!! My OCD rears it's ugly head big time.

Words and phrases. I absolutely cannot stand the phrase, "If you will." Whenever someone says that, I ask them, "But what if I won't?" I think the hatred of that phrase came from a priest we had about 7 years ago. He had EVERYONE snowed, but me. Not trying to "toot my own horn", but I couldn't stand this man. There was something about him I just didn't like- and felt really bad, because he was a, "man of God." Well, turns out, I was right. He basically turned our plain ol' Episcopal church into a "new age haven", teaching crazy stuff, and constantly said, "if you will." Well, I did, I left our church until he was gone- that was the ONLY time in 28 years I've ever left my church. Thought you might enjoy that little tidbit of information while I ranted about "if you will" *L*.

The last words I'm going to rant about are "whilst", "booyah", "poingent", and "bittersweet". I'd wipe all of those words out of existence if I could. Don't ask me why, but when I hear people say these words, it puts me in a bad mood.

I know this post has to be an absolute scream to everyone who's read it. I know I'm insane. I take full responsibility for that- but take responsibility for nothing if I haven't had my Effexor. Thanks for reading my rant, and in the wise words of Blanche Devereux, "Share With Me!!!"
