#50ThingsIHate

Good Evening Followers! In a last ditch effort to avoid boredom, I am taking up my love of writing and sharing my love with the world. I was going to wait until next month to start this, but hey, no haste, no waste right? Seize the day! For my first post, I am going to elaborate on a "Trending Topic" on Twitter. The trend? "#50ThingsIHate". Seeing as I am not going to post 50 different Tweets on one subject, lets just do them all here on a blog! Here we go folks! Hopefully this will spark some debate and we can get some real feedback going! Happy Reading!

IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER:

1) Heat. I abhor any temperature above 75 degrees... My philosophy: "You can always put on more clothes, but you can only take off so much!"
2) Snakes. I don't even need to elaborate on this one.
3) Car Troubles. Who doesn't hate them? Its bad enough you pay thousands of dollars for cars, only to have to keep sinking money into them.
4) Money. I hate money and what it does to people.
5) Pennies. Really... who uses pennies in this day and age?
6) Feet. I don't have a reason why... But they are disgusting... The only good feet are mine.
7) Trashy Tattoos. People. God only gave us one body, why do some of you feel the need to trash it. Is that stuff really gonna look great when your 85 and wrinkly?
8) Unruly children. I love kids, don't get me wrong, but there is nothing that makes me madder than a wold kid who's parents have no control over. Its YOUR kid, YOU control it.
9) Unruly Pets. Same as the children thing listed above. There is nothing worse to me than going to someones house only to deal with their bad pets. Growling, barking, jumping all over you. Especially to strangers. I love pets too, so don't get me wrong here. (And to all my friends with pets, none of this is pointed towards you).
10) ABC Networks. This one was a rando for me. But ABC cancels shows WAY to early. Examples: Lost, Eastwick, No Ordinary Family, GCB, etc. There are several others. ABC cancels shows when they are right in their prime. Some networks... Not to diss any... *Cough CBS* *Cough FOX* let shows stay on the air YEARS after they should be canceled. Why can't ABC let us have our good shows back?

Note that some of these are feeding off of one another, while others are quite random.

11) No Respect for Elders. These people raised you and have more experience than you. Respect them all, while they are still here. 
12) Laziness. People who cannot do anything for themselves angers me to no end. I don't know what has changed in society where people feel to good to take care of themselves. What happened to self senses of pride?
13) Overly Religious People. I love the Lord and consider myself a God Fearing Man! I am learned in the bible and the ways of the Christian faith. But I do NOT understand the overly pushy religious people on Facebook. Live and let live. Judge lest ye be judged. Only God can judge, and all that business... Leave it alone people.
14) People who live off their parents. They raise you to care for yourself. GET OUT AND GET A LIFE. 
15) People who are REWARDED for being lazy. Especially rich kids, whose parents shower them with gifts: new cars, vacations, etc. Yet they aren't even expected to work for their keep.
16) When someone leaves empty boxes/bags of food laying around. This is SO frustrating... Living in a house of 3 other people I know what this is like. If I'm hungry I get so mad when I reach for a box of something only to find that it is empty. Ugh!
17) The price of an education. If we are all encouraged to make something of ourselves, then why does it have to cost $10,000 a year? Why do we spend the rest of our natural lives paying off loans? I hate this about college!
18) The price of textbooks. This one is a biggie for me! Textbooks should NOT! Be so expensive!
19) People who use their authority to bully people. Teachers and Bosses especially. I know there has to be some form of hierarchy, yet I do not understand why some use to for bullying. So sad.
20) Bullies in general. Enough Said. I have no use for a bully.

This is getting harder and harder as the list goes on... For someone who gripes so much, I am having trouble pinpointing my problems.

21) Hypocrisy. I hate when people live life in someone else's perspective. Really? Don't say you hate partying then show up at the biggest party of the year drunk as can be! Don't say you hate person XY only to be seen with them a day later. Have some couth people!
22) Posers. I HATE HATE HATE when something suddenly becomes popular and then everyone and their mom is an expert on the subject. IE The Avengers craze. I have been an AVID comic book and Marvel fan my entire life. I could tell you so much Marvel that you;d be bored to tears, yet now that the movie is out, everyone is an expert. Yeah right. Same goes for Twilight, Harry Potter, the Cardinals... I hate Bandwagoners!
23) Socks that do not match. I hate when I am in a hurry and put on two different socks!
24) Wearing any socks that go above the ankles. Unless you are wearing boots, there is absolutely no reason for your socks to be up that high. It is just trashy to be wearing crew socks with shorts or thick tall socks in the summer. Socks are for your FEET, not your whole leg.
25) College attire. This one is a big one for me. I HATE HATE HATE when college kids wear athletic sorts 99.9% of the time. LAZY. I also hate when people own nothing but tshirts...Its pathetic. As stated in the previous one, I hate when people wear tall socks and athletic shorts, it looks so trashy. if your legs are THAT cold, put on some pants.
26) Hitting the buttons on my phone, while I am talking on it. This has only become a problem since I got my first touchscreen phone. Nothing sucks as bad as hanging up on someone because your tongue hit the side of your mouth... I get quite frustrated.
27) Being touched. I am not a touchy feely person. Admittedly, I am a hugger. But I hate when people just feel the need to be all touchy and have their hands on you for no reason. Its a big pet peeve of mine. Even my own mother is not aloud to touch me. We have this fight often.
28) Goths and Hipsters. Really? Get over yourselves. Enough said.
29) Cancer. I know this one is cliche but nobody likes cancer... I have seen many a great person lose their live to a disease that they cannot hope to beat. It is awful how this disease gets a hold of people nowadays!
30) Being woken up. As someone in their late teens and early 20s, I like to enjoy all the sleep I can get. That being said, unless it is a life or death situation, there is NEVER a good enough excuse to wake me up.

Past the halfway mark... At this point, even I am suck of writing...

31) Animal abuse. If you are going to buy/get a pet then why abuse it? Seriously. I hate when girls say they want a puppy then when it gets big they toss it to the side. I hate when people don't care for their animals and instead just chain them outside. I hate when people don't feed their animals too... So sad that this is even an issue.
32) Spousal abuse. Nobody wants to go through their lives alone, so when you find someone, treat them right. Nothing fires me up worse than hearing about a guy beating up on his girlfriend or wife. Or vice-avers. The things it does to a person on the inside are awful. (Outside too in physically abusive relationships).
33) Deadbeat Parents. This is another big pet peeve of mine. If your kid is 13, its 2AM on a Saturday, and you have no idea where your child is. your a deadbeat. Kids these days have no curfews and do not abide by any set of rules. It is definitely not just the kids fault. Dumb decisions in the parenting department definitely play a huge role here. I could write a book on this subject. In short: If you cant do the time then don't have the kid.
34) Stupid people. There is no excuse for stupidity. Stupidity=Laziness. Refer to earlier post.
35) Porkchops. This dry, tough, tasteless meat makes me cringe on the inside... Pork is the least of favorite meats to say the least.
36) Cabbage. Especially boiled cabbage... My mom loved the stuff but the smell turns my stomach... I always think of poor Charlie Bucket off Willy Wonka.... Ugh... Dreadful food!
37) Mosquitoes. Coming from SwampEast Missouri this one is a no brainer.
38) Acne. This is another big deal of mine. It doesn't matter how often I clean my face, what I do or don't eat, or what kind of money I spend on treatments. My face NEVER clears up... I have my good days and my bad days, but honestly I'm nearing 21. I am so done with acne. 
39) That awkward phase of breaking in clothes and shoes. I love getting new clothes, I like looking nice, but I hate that phase ya know! Especially with shoes! People always ask if they are comfortable and I am always like seriously? NO! Who has comfy shoes the first day? Nobody! The same goes for jeans. Even after a preliminary washing, they are always stiff and new... I don't like that!
40) When your electronic devices are dying. IE, my phone and laptop at the current moment.

And here we are nearing the last 10 on my life. Now that I am going I realize that there are FAR more than 50 things that I hate, but this list starts something that can definitely be continued on in a future post. At this point I am actually reaching a crazy length. Reminder to self: divide my next list up!

For these last 10 I am going to write things that I am hating right this moment for reasons of my own. Not really serious on these, just 10 things that are currently bothering me.

41) Canada. They have currently taken my best friend away. Haha! Apparently Canada is a 3rd world country with no internet or Wifi! Why are Canada and Mexico considered "international" bt ATT? That's just ridiculous... I would still like to be able to use my phones while on vacations!
42) Politics. I am not a political person and do not care anything about becoming one. I vote people, not party.
43) Apple Products. Honestly, they are super expensive and not well made. Anyone who pays $1500 for a laptop is a complete idiot in my book. My laptop cost $350 and I bought it 4 years ago. Never had a single problem out of it. Wow, look there, I saved a thousand bucks. And iPhones are just ridiculous. I could argue about this topic for days so I will just stop while I am ahead.
44) Mirror Pictures. This one is just stupid. Mirror pictures are the pinnacle of trashy. Get out of the bathroom people. If you are THAT self centered then find someone to take the picture for you.
45) The Last Book/ Movie in a Series. They NEVER live up to my expectations unfortunately.
46) Nosey People. If I didn't ask for your opinion, then don't give it to me.
47) Fake Friends. This one will be a future post for sure. I hate fakes. Hate them all.
48) People who are too scared to stand up for themselves. Grow a pair people. Nobody is gonna stick up for you forever. This is YOUR life, live it to YOUR liking!
49) Rude Customers. This one is a pet peeve for me, seeing as I work with the public each and every day. Some people just need to get a grip.
50) The "TL:DR" comment that I will get from Tommy Jackson about this blog. In fact, screw that, I hate all the smart alleck comments he is going to end up coming up with after this. Haha! Just kidding Thomas! Gotta love that kid!

Anyway. This is just #50ThingsIHate I would love to see some other things that you hate! Feel free to comment and give me some feedback. As for me, I'm sensing a "#50ThingsILove" post in the very near future. That's all for tonight folks. Ethan "Awesome Sauce" Gregory is out!

Prologue to Greatness!

Well, I am getting back to my blogging roots in an effort to rediscover myself through my love of writing. No more of this "journal" style of blogging. From here on out I "write without script". I will be prompting myself thoroughly and writing on issues that I actually care to read about. After all, what a living worth it you aren't hosting  a life worth living?
