Things I Hate

So I was sitting at a Chinese Buffet last night eating my crab legs (which I never realized were Chinese) with my son and thinking life is good. Then I realized, life also pisses me off a lot. So , although it may be negative I decided I want to make a post where every member can pick one thing per day that they hate/pisses them off. Doesnt have to be world changing, maybe even its dumb (like mine is today) but I think this little place to rant about one thing per day may in fact slowly change the world.

TODAY, I hate what was playing at the buffet last night on their CD in the restaurant---The XMas song "All I Want for Christmas is my two front teeth". Ive always hated it, I think its ridiculous, I dont find in festive, and dont want to hear some kid lisping about his dental work in my holiday season. You "All I Want" are my enemy of the day.

Applying for jobs.
Seriously it's the most joyless task of all time.

Looking for a place...I'm amazed everyone isn't homeless.
Waiting lists is the name of the game.

When you sleep weird but don't know it and the next morning you feel fine. Fine until you make some random movement, you hear something pop in your neck/shoulder. Then for the next 2-3 days you can't turn your head.

So far iOS 7. I've had it a day and so far it combines the worst of Apple and Microsoft: pretentious, over-engineered, changes to things that didn't need changing AND complicated.

That on the last day of my honeymoon while I'm making salmon as a grand finale of sorts the gotdamn piece of sh*t oven decides to explode.

Exactly, the way it goes in and out of apps screws with my eyes too. The color/design scheme reminds me of "The Incredibles," which i liked in the movie but not on my phone.

I hate new words and phrases that replace perfectly good, well defined words and phrases in our (English) language.

For example - impact - has nearly completely replaced both effect and affect in modern usage. Is it lazyiness? Because I know that figuring out whether to use effect or affect isn't the easiest thing to do but damn if they haven't worn out the new ways to use impact. It's even a adjective now. Impactful. I still can't get over the TV weather forecasters absolute LOVE and AFFECTION for all the new ways to use the word impact. "How will the fog impact your morning commute? Stay tuned for the forecast." Hell, I think the fog will just hang in the air. Now hail? That might be an impact. In fact it might even leave marks where it hits the hood of your car. THAT'S a real impact.

Other examples:

Issue – I know it's too late to put this genie back in the bottle but why can't we just call a problem a problem?

Going forward - Do you mean some sort of forward motion or did you really mean "in the future"? Then say "in the future",........please.

Own it - WTF does this mean? I still don't know what they mean with this slang but sadly, it looks like it's here to stay.

And don't bother trying to make me understand how language evolves. I know how it works.

But...............

Just because a word can be imaginated and popularfied by a cleverful person, and even if they can utilate it and everyone eventually comprehendizes it's new understandation, that still don't make it right.
