speaking of stuff you "hate"... (1 Viewer)

[Mike_Mig]

I hate SUV's. Since when did we need the biggest beasts on earth to transport usually one person and from what I have noticed usually a woman. I just don't understand them. I want a nice sporty car, not a house on wheels. Has anyone seen a Ford Excursion? It is ridiculous.

I hate the public. If you've ever worked in retail, you know what I mean. People who couldn't care less that you're wasting your time on helping their brain-dead butts. So, here's some hints on not being an annoying customer. Have ALL the information you need before going to get something. I work in auto parts and nothing annoys me more than some redneck idiot sending his moron wife up to my store for a part that she has no idea about. "What kind of car is it?" "I don't know. My husband knows." "Then why didn't HE come?" "He's passed out drunk in the laz-e-boy in front of the tv that's playin' Nascar 24 hours day." Uh-huh. Hint 2, don't pester people to go and find you something that you can find on your own. Why people refuse to look in books to find a simple part number and get the part off the shelf is beyond me. I hear them all the time, "Just ask that guy", like I'm not busy with 3 other customers with REAL problems. And hint 3, be patient. The world doesn't stop because you walked in the door. Other people want things too. Wait your turn. Those are the kind of people I don't mind waiting on. That's my rant. Thanks. I'm not about hate. I'm about solutions to problems, and some people are problems!

Things I love...gullible people. Nothing will cheer you up more than pulling one over on them. I've got a coworker convinced there are viscious giant snapping sea turtles in Hawai'i that attack swimmers. She's not going there for her honeymoon.

Another thing I love to see, SUVs and trucks the size of houses in the ditch. When it snows, they're the only ones you see in the ditches, especially the Ford Expeditions. These drivers think they're invincible because they have 4-wheel drive. Little do they realize it's a lot harder to stop a six thousand pound vehicle on ice than it is to stop a three thousand pound car.

Just had to comment on this one.

I used to be a parts girl for Nation Wise auto parts before they went under and I all to well know the frustrations of dealing with stupid people. I'm still in sales, however, the part about looking up parts number in books to find something on the shelves doesn't apply to everyone. Unfortunantly in our society some people cannot read and have a hard time finding things on their own.Many times I will go into a parts store to find out they moved things around and spend my time trying to find out where such and such is. I had no problems finding things for people who really (did) look for them. To the customer thier problems are "real." I don't necessarily like helping certain people due to the fact that they are hostile or ignorant but hey...that's my job and that's what I get paid for.Secondly, speaking of parts counters in general you don't know how many times I've went in there with part number in hand and the moron behind the counter didn't know how to find it, (most don't even know how to operate the computer to look a part up these days) and this leads me to one more thing I forgot to mention that I hate:

I hate walking into a parts store and asking for a certain part and having the guys behind the counter look at me like I have lobsters coming out of my ears as if I'm not supposed to be there. I'm here to tell you fella's that YES some females out there DO know what they are talking about when it comes to cars and engines. Hmmmm just for fun I think I'll prank call autozone today and ask the idiot behind the counter to try and find a radiator for a 67 Corvaire. That should keep him busy.........

Peace,

Eve

 

[Jeremy Jones]

Eve, you couldn't be more right. My manager is a female and she knows more about parts than most mechanics that come in. Knowledge isn't gender specific. I'm just a frustrated parts man.

Things that annoy me:

People who let their dogs crap in my yard and then don't pick it up.

Small "kiddie carts" in grocery stores.

Braindead parents who let their kids race kiddie carts around the grocery store as if it were a game with points awarded for each person run over.

The sad lack of good horror movies.

Teen horror movies with the cast from the latest teen TV hit.

The lack of a good, high budget, faithful screen adaptation of HP Lovecraft.

Toning down the violence and gore in horror movies.

Horror movies with artificially happy endings.

The fact that Bad Taste 2 does not exist.

 

[Trace Downing]

I hate it when the Pharmacist tells you 15-20 minutes, knowing damn well he's not doing anything, just so you'd walk around the store and buy a bunch of crap that you don't need...like these Reece's Pieces I can't stop eating!

 

[Tony_Faville]

We have a great mass transit train system here in the Portland metro area...my pet-peeve is when people try shoving onto the train before I can get off of the train. I hate it. Wouldn't it make more sense to wait for people to get off, to clear some space before you get on? I've quit being polite about it and just charge off the train and damn anyone that is trying to shove on.

 

[Marshall Alsup]

I hate the way Wal-Mart and Shopko (and probably others) only sell censored CDs. But they sell uncensored movies. They're only being semi-family-friendly. What a bunch of hipocrites. I hate the fact that they censor thier CDs. And I hate the fact that they dont censor the movies they sell even more because this means that they dont really care about censoring stuff to begin with, but because of thier false morality I have to go a little further out of my way to buy these things.

I will NEVER buy an edited CD!!!!!!

I also hate cream cheese. That is the most discusting s*** ever created and it just shows that millions of people CAN be wrong!

That was fun,

Marshall

 

[Stacy Huff]

I hate telemarketers, especially the ones who can't take "no" for an answer but think that they have to try to change your mind.

I hate terrorists.

I hate the way that my pockets always stick on things, like doorknobs. I'm walking through the door, and BAM! My pocket catches on the doorknob (or worse, the part of the mechanism located in the door frame), and I'm stuck. I've torn pockets that way before, and I've ripped my coat and pants. I HATE IT!

I hate Spam, the email kind and the kind that comes in a can.

I hate work, and I hate my job, but that's a personal problem.

I hate being wrong.

I hated Wild Wild West with Will Smith.

I hate the way that anytime I scan a VHS tape looking for something, especially if I'm in a hurry, I always stop it on a commercial.

I hate that skin that develops on the top of pudding and jello when you put it in the refridgerator.

I hate taxes!

Even more, I hate DOING my taxes!

I hate the people that like to make a spectacle of themselves at the movies (although I guess that is payback for being a teenager once myself), and I hate it when they use those little laser pointers (although in general I think those things are cool).

I hate it when my computer freezes, I hate the Blue Screen of Death, and I hate it when a crash costs me valuable information.

I hate the way girls used to tell me how nice I was, or something to that effect, and then they would drop off the face of the planet like they joined the witness protection program.

I hate getting older.

I hate that I will never get to meet Jimmy Stewart, Dale Earnhardt, and a whole host of other people.

I hate politics (I hope that isn't political).

I hate waking up in the middle of the night having to pee (but I guess I would hate not waking up even more.)

I hate lip-syncing.

I hate loneliness and depression.

I hate red tape (but I love duct tape).

I'm not real keen on my name, but what are you gonna do?

I really hated the book Hannibal. As a reviewer described it, Thomas Harris produced "the literary equivalent of giving your fans the finger."

I hate wine. It gives me a big time headache.

Which reminds me...I hate headaches, especially migraines, but they are better when you have somebody to give you a head massage.

I also hate throwing up, which goes hand in hand with my headaches, and I especially hate the dry heaves.

I hate losing my hair, at least the hair on my head, and I hate gaining new hair in strange and interesing places. I guess I hate hair redistribution.

I hate getting screwed, but not in the literal sense.

I hate, "I told you so."

I hate that people like Monica Lewinsky, Kato Kalin, and John Wayne Bobbit have more money than I'll ever see in my life. I mean, come on. Monica is rich now because she happened to give fellatio to the right guy, Kato had his 15 minutes too much (and I still see him popping up on TV from time-to-time) because he couldn't afford his own housing, and let's face it, the best thing Bobbit ever did was getting his penis cut off (and, I guess, re-attached. His story wouldn't have been nearly as good without that.)

I hate that Hugh Hefner has not one, but three beautiful young girlfriends. Tell me it ain't the money! I don't even think he knows their names.

I hate looking in the mirror and realizing that I've had a booger hanging out of my nose all day long.

I hate the way the news teases you with some odd or strange bit, but they show it the last thirty seconds of the show, just before the credits roll. Actually, that isn't limited to the news.

I hate McDonalds, but that's a personal thing.

I hate when I wear shorts, and like, go walking on the beach or something, and it chafes my inner thigh. What the hell is up with that? I'm not fat, at least not in my legs. I don't get it?

I really hated it when my ex-wife tried to remove the hair from my back with wax strips, but she didn't read the directions first, so she didn't cut the hair before applying the wax strips, which actually looked like really sticky tape. She ended up picking me up off the bed like luggage. I thought I might have been better off just burning those wax strips off.

I hate when the, ahem, flight attendants, ram you with that cart when they're going up or down the aisle.

I hate not being able to sleep, and I hate getting up in the morning.

I hate it when I have an accident with the stapler and end up with one in the end of my finger (admittedly, not something that happens very often.)

I hate "rolling" my ankle.

I hate the cold, although I'm starting to like it more as I get older.

I hate it when I miss that one spot when I put on sunscreen and end up with a really stupid looking burn, like a patch of red on the back of a knee, or under an arm. I also hate the raccoon look when you forget to take off your sunglasses.

I hate those porn emails that tell you that they have naked pictures of J-Lo, or Britney's boobs, but when you click the link all they want is your credit card number and you can't get out because each time you close a window three more pop up until your browswer crashes.

I HATE SNAKES!!! And alligators aren't high on my list, but that's because I almost fell on one once when I was 5, and I still have dreams about it.

I hate Stairway to Heaven, Black Dog, and most of the other songs off of IV, but only because they play them too much.

I hate hurting somebody's feelings, although I seem to have a knack for doing it, even when I don't mean to do it. In fact, I don't think I hate hurting somebody's feelings nearly as much when I do it intentionally. It is the unintentional ones that I hate the most.

I hate a runny nose.

I hate that line you see on women's faces when they use too much makeup. You know, the one under the chin, where you can see that everything above is makeup, everything below is just normal colored skin.

I hate day-time TV talk shows.

Well, I have to go eat, so I'll finish this list later. I hate that there are no good places to eat in this town...

 

[Steeve Bergeron]

Wow! That's quite a list, Stacy! What do you like?

 

[Josh_Hill]

I hate everyone equally.

 

[Oliver Kopp]

I hate snow

 

[Eric Kahn]

some list Stacy
and they used to call me the duke of Depresion
( I hate the fact that I can not spell )

 

[Stacy Huff]

HA! I hadn't looked at my list on the page. Didn't realize it was a treatise. Guess I got carried away.

Steve, you asked what I like. Well, I like this topic. I think it deserves its own forum. And I like Peanut Butter. But I'll stop there. Otherwise, my list will be even longer than the one above. Hey, maybe that's a topic...

 

[Mike Broadman]

I hate that Hugh Hefner has not one, but three beautiful young girlfriends. Tell me it ain't the money! I don't even think he knows their names.

Actually, I think he has 6 or 7.

I hate the fact that I'm not Hugh Hefner.

 

[Clay Kilpatrick]

What I hate,
Excessive negativity?

Clay

 

[MatthewA]

In one of John Waters' books, he has a piece called "101 Things I Hate" and it's quite funny, even though I don't agree with all of them.

I hate when my sisters fight.

I hate the fact that cheesecake is unhealthy.

I hate not being one of those people who can eat like pigs and not gain an ounce.

I hate the way they cut old TV shows in reruns to sell more commercial time.

I hate the fact that more TV shows and movies I like aren't on DVD.

I hate the fact that money doesn't grow on trees.

I hate to think of what would happen to the economy if money DID grow on trees.

I hate the mess my dog left on the floor while I was away this weekend (say this with a Cockney accent).

I hate corporate corruption.

I hate what these threads do to people.
