*Colbie Caillat and that stupid "Bubbly" song. The first time I heard it? Kinda cute. The five millionth? I want to puncture my eardrums with a screwdriver.
*Best Of. Enough said.
*Being sick.
*Spyware. I fail to see how spyware is profitable for anyone. I've figured out how to get to the sites I'm trying to reach, despite the fact that my computer (at work) is infected as all get-out. But honestly -- does anyone who's trying to Google something, and then gets rerouted to a random NEW search page while trying to reach some other completely different site, actually think, "Oh. A new search page. Maybe one of THESE results will take me where I need to be." And how long does it take to remove spyware? Sucks.
*People who drive vehicles far, far too large for their needs, then complain about the cost of gas. Oh. I'm sorry. You needed that Escalade because Buffy and Spencer are getting so big now, and you simply must have some behemoth of a vehicle in order to shuttle them around to their after-school activities. Gee. Sucks that it costs $400 to fill up your tank -- maybe next time you'll consider a hybrid, Mrs. Selfish McMeMeMe.
*China. I am in no way a racist. But if China is that schoolyard bully who started growing facial hair in third grade, then Tibet is that most obvious of targets -- the underfed, weedy, pale child with glasses, who's always picked last in gym class and who probably has some "weird" habits, like refraining from eating meat. And, China? Your little theory that the Dalai Lama is masterminding the protests in Tibet and attempting to incite violence? It's not really gonna fly. The Dalai Lama has won the Nobel Peace Prize, you see, and he's a Buddhist. He's the head Buddhist! I -- and the rest of the thinking universe -- am pretty sure that he's not the evil plotter you say he is. If you could provide some evidence of your claims, I would be happy to look at it. You don't have any proof? Listen, guys, just stop. Just quit bullying poor little Tibet -- why do you want it, anyway? I know you say it's yours, yadda yadda, but what resources, exactly (besides the Dalai Lama, who hasn't been able to live there since you took over -- I mean, reclaimed -- Tibet) does Tibet contain that will benefit you in any way? Just give it up, please, because you're only making yourself look bad. And worse. And even worse still. Just stop.
And you know what? Just for that, China, I'm not watching the Olympics this year. At all. So there.
