I hate when people purposely muffle the key words of their sentences and then say, "You didn't hear me."

Stupid laughs! Some people, usually women, cackle like witches when they laugh. Others, usually men, laugh through their noses.

cinnamon


I LOVE the taste of cinnamon! I just hate the way people are misusing it only because they were dared to or because they want to make a stupid video.

Also cinnamon is a naturally occurring substance, it comes from the inner bark of a tree, so technically it wasn't invented, although people have invented a use for it.



No. No. No. No. Nope.

That stuff was spawned from the very pits of hell. It needs to stay on the tree. And the trees burned. And their charred corps put through wood chippers. Six times. Just to be sure. And the chippings need to be burnt again. And then ejected into space. Preferably into another galaxy... On the other side of the universe.

Nope.


You're entitled to your opinion.

Uptalk - the new type of spoken language where every sentence sounds like a freaking question.

Millenial speak - where they eschew "of" in sentences as in "a couple hamburgers" instead of "a couple of hamburgers."


I hate uptalk with a passion. Everyone sounds like a freaking Valley Girl when they do it.

I wish that corsets and lotus shoes were never invented. Foot binding is the worst thing that I remember learning about in High School Social Studies. The corsets that women had to wear for four centuries weren't much better. If I was around in the 16th, 17th, 18th or the 19th century, I would have committed suicide in hopes of coming back as a man. Either that, or I would have been a cross dresser from day one. I also would have spoken with the deep voice that I use today.

I third that about Socialism. It is a downward spiral to misery, eugenics and death.

"Helpful" music players. I gave up trying to manage my music years ago, and now, I can't even find a new MP3 player that can do "random" reliably.

I also don't like Socialism for the same reasons. That should have never been invented.

I have made major contributions to the field of engineering, but don't have good executive function. By your guidance, I would have died both before and since my productive years.

The substitution of "of" for "have."

That's another thing that I have no...taller ants for! Lol!

Me, TOO!! I'm thinking it got started by people hearing other people saying "should've", and because it sounds like "should of", people started saying it that way----but, there's no contraction for "should of", so that should be a hint, right there. There's a few people, on here, that do it, and it makes me cringe.
