My 40 LEAST Favorite Things


Part Two in my series devoted to my 40th birthday!
  1. Coughing
  2. Loud TV Commercials that have found a way to out-smart the smart sound system.
  3. People who act like they are busier than everyone else.
  4. Ice cream
  5. Disrespectful children
  6. Lies
  7. Snow
  8. Incompetence when there is every reason to expect competence.
  9. Mating socks
  10. Sauerkraut
  11. I cry when I get mad
  12. The word THEY (as in…”They said they were going to…” Who is they????)
  13. Rude drivers who believe that rural WV roads are equivalent to busy metro areas…Just to let you know, I have been/driven there…THEY AREN’T the same, so settle down! Honestly the people driving on Emily Drive in Clarksburg need to spend a little time in New York or Addis Ababa Ethiopia and then they would lay off their horns and/or go when the light is green!

  15. Surprises
  16. Doctor’s offices
  17. The smell of meat frying
  18. Radio broadcasts of sports events
  19. Shrimp
  20. Being snapped at (Physically snapping and I think this is residual effects from my early morning French Drill class in college)
  21. Intentional Ignorance
  22. Women who flaunt their physical assets instead of their intellectual ones…when they have both. (I mean hey, if it is all you got…by all means…use what you’ve been given, but if you’ve got some smarts, heaven forbid!)
  23. Single people who put their lives on hold waiting for “the one.”
  24. Hairballs
  25. The sound of an alarm clock
  26. The smell of burnt popcorn
  27. Seeing my name misspelled
  28. Weak coffee
  29. Disorganization
  30. Putting silverware away
  31. Not knowing the ending of a movie/book before I read/see it. I HAVE TO KNOW or I WON’T GO
  32. Live Sporting Events – see entry above...
  33. Diet soda ( Prefer to go thirsty if that is my only option)
  34. Being poked in the arm
  35. People saying my name repeatedly when I am busy setting up for a party/event or working on a project.
  36. Jeopardy – the game show
  37. Scary Movies
  38. The lowering of expectations in America in regards to education, intellect, competency, morals, manners and overall common decency.
  39. Asparagus
  40. Hearing my speaking voice on a recording
