1) When someone writes "A LOT" as one word. News flash: It's two words

2) When you're at a red light and the light changes and the person in front of you seems to be waiting for it to turn purple or black, and they just sit and sit and sit. And then when you honk your horn they act mad.

3) Jerry Springer. Not just the trash that he puts on TV, which I can avoid. But it bugs me that people like it. I think it says something about our society. And it says it in a hillbilly accent, really loud.

4) People who ask me stupid questions.

5) People who take an hour to ask me a stupid question. Especially when I'm at work and I answer the phone and they say "How are you?" and then wait for me to answer them. Like they REALLY care how I'm doing, and it's REALLY going to affect what they say next.

6) When people say "but yet": "I did this, but yet he did that." They say it to sound sophisticated and intelligent, and yet by doing so they demonstrate their ignorance. The word "but" means "yet". You can say "but" or "yet" or "and yet", but not "but yet" which is completely redundant. And stupid. So stop saying it.

7) When they show a commercial on TV to try to get you to watch next week's episode of a show, and it's totally not what the show is really about. And then you tune in to watch the next week's show and it's almost like the whole episode is just teasing you, saying "HA HA! That isn't really what this show is about!"

8) When there's a used car salesman and he knows what people think about used care salesmen and so he tries to make a commercial that's all hip and cool about he knows what we think but for some reason we should come buy a car from him anyway. And, o yeah, he's ugly.

9) Luke on "Gilmore Girls". He's supposably this big teddy-bear-like guy with a gruff exterior who does nice things for Lorelai but won't admit his true feelings for her. And it comes off as contrived. He's the only one on that show I don't like. I think the whole sexual-tension/will-they-get-together-or-won't-they thing went out with Sam and Diane.

10) Like when McDonald's or Burger King comes out with a new hamburger with something weird or different on it, especially when it's a tie-in with a movie, like the "Buzz Lightyear Burger". This especially annoys me when I actually like the hamburger and then they take it off the menu.

11) The Gap commercials where all these people I don't recognize and never heard of sing Supertramp's "Give A Little Bit". Not only do they suck at it and ruin a good song, but....well, they really really suck at it.

12) The word "utilize". Perhaps the most useless and redundant word in the English language. It shouldn't even be a word. People use this word to sound like they're big shots, or speaking officially, or really intelligent, but it's just so stupid. There is no instance where the word "use" can't be substituted for "utilize" or "utilization".

13) Over-Rated Songs. Especially "Hotel California", or anything from "Frampton Comes Alive". Everyone acts like they are classics. They suck.

14) Jay Leno. I used to think he was hilarious, when he was a stand-up guy and he used to appear on "Late Night With David Letterman". I don't think he's funny at all now, though, and I hate that he got that job and Letterman didn't.

15) When news people start to think that it's their job to inspire or educate us, or basically anything but just REPORT THE FREAKIN' NEWS.

16) When you see a TV show or movie that's about dragons and myths and swords, or whatever, and every freakin' person (especially the bad guys) have English accents. Even when the myths are Greek or Roman or whatever, or even when they're supposed to pre-date civilization entirely. Wouldn't it make more sense for them to have completely unrecognizable accents? And why do they always have to be BRITISH?!

17) When there's just a little bit of peanut butter left in the jar and you scrape and scrape trying to get it all. This goes for Mayonnaise as well. I hate that.

18) Sequels to movies that sucked. Like who told Jason Bateman it would be a good career move to be in "Teen Wolf Too"? And was "My Girl" such a blockbuster that we need to see more of it?

19) "Very Special" episodes of sitcoms. This is especially true for shows like "Blossom" that want to be so much more important than they are. These are sitcoms, people. Don't educate us, that's what PBS is for.

20) Sunday Morning news shows that try to be hip. Especially that one on FOX news. They just did an update on the situation between Pakistand and India and showed the tanks and bombs while they played "One Thing Leads To Another" by the Fixx, and the announcer says something like "They're at it again" like it's a 50's TV show. Those wacky Hindus are up to their same old wacky hijinks!

21) Like when you watch a show that's supposed to be set in the 70s and they play songs before they were even released. Like "The Wonder Years" did it all the time. Once Kevin and some girl were listening to the radio and it was supposed to be the summer of 1971 and the radio played "Jamaica, Say You Will" which was on Jackson Browne's first album which didn't come out til the fall of 1972. Or the time he climbed in Winnie's window and it was supposed to be like 1973, and they played "We've Got Tonight" which came out in 1978 on "Stranger In Town" by Bob Seger. Or in the movie "My Girl 2" which I swear I only watched because I was bored at 3 in the morning, it was supposed to be 1974 and they played "Swingtown" but I think that was on Steve Miller's "Book of Dreams" and that came out in 1977.

22) When there are these Olympic events that are less about atheletics and more about art. I mean, art is fine, but that shouldn't be what the Olympics are about. Now you got synchronized swimming and Ice Dancing and now this new thing called "Ski Flying", and all these things are is just folks dancing around. Next they're going to have boxers dancing around in little ballet slippers.

23) Tom Cruise. I don't know why. He seems like a nice guy but he bugs me.

24) Food that looks like other stuff. I don't mean like animal crackers, I mean like vegetables that look like flowers and potatoes that look like swans. I'm afraid to eat it.

25) The theme for the show "CSI". Not that I don't like the song. Just the opposite. It's "Who Are You" by the Who...great song. I hate that its the theme of this cheesy show.

26) DUI Lawyers.
