10 things that have no purpose in the universe but to annoy me.
-
1. FHM magazine
2. Survivor
3. Stray hairs that end up in lip gloss on windy days
4. Flying ants
5. Oily Costco muffins
6. Crows
7. Platform flip flops (Why are you carrying a giant brick of rubber under your foot? Those things should be called “clomp clomps”!)
8. Avril Lavigne
9. Leggings
10. Bubble tea

I am fairly certain that “clomp clomps” is going to pop into my head every time I see platform flip flops from now on. Which is good since I find it both appropriate and amusing.

FHM more than Bush? Christ, you must be Canadian.

Well, “pete”, I don’t think I’d classify Bush under “annoy.” That seems like too tiny a word for something that problematic.
(and comments with false IDs get deleted if they happen more than once, just so you know…)

frickin’ costco muffins. they look so good. they taste like sugar and chemicals.
bleh.

what? no joe francis, or is he in the same, overly problematic category as bush?
May 17th, 2007 at 10:20 am
I’d say, yeah.
FHM is somewhat Francis-esque, but not as appalling. All these things are very much not the end of the world, and I really think all of the things above are just kind of dumb “grr” annoyances, not major societal issues or menaces. I could write the “10 things that make me really angry” list and I believe both Mr. Bush and Mr. Francis would make an appearance.

That was my most illiterate comment ever!

I need the platform brick flip flops thankyouverymuch, I am on the twee side.
What is bubble tea?

EW!
And I’m not Michael Jordan, either, honey, but I would rather just buy myself a step stool!

Sick, and wrong. How is there a market for that stuff?
Dessert needs to be enjoyed all by its lonesome, combining it with tea is far too efficient for me.
clomp clomps, hehe

Hmmm…one of my dear friends loves bubble tea and couldn’t believe that I hadn’t had it. She said she is going to take me out for bubble tea. I may have to rethink it now. Is it really that bad? By the way, thank you for your comment today, and your prayers. I appreciate them!

Hey Stacy! Lots of people love it. Like LOTS of people. I just loathe the texture of tapioca balls. I don’t even like the WORDS “tapioca balls.” You may well love the flavour and the texture. It’s just not my bag.:)

now i’m craving homemade tapioca pudding….
May 18th, 2007 at 10:09 am
What skeeves me out is that the balls are black, or brown. Isn’t tapioca white, or cream? Why would I drink tea with black gelatenous balls in it? It sounds like mold spores infiltrated my tea.
Well, at least I feel more cultural now.
I will think of you the next time I wear my 6″ spice girl flip flops. I will think “Meg wants me to carry a stepstool” and I will laugh and laugh and laugh until I remember the gross black mold tea and then I will cry.

I also hate the legging thing. And bubble tea makes me want to hurl and i have NEVER tried it. I hate it when you can see a girl’s bra straps when she wears a tank top. The poker trend annoys me. FHM, Maxim and all those mags bug me. People who name their kids fake made up or silly things like Rhonee or Diamond are mean. Most stylish shoes with heels of any kind make my feet hurt. I dislike how often I misplace things. Survivor is also on my list, and David Caruso. I should stop now.

I agree with everything on this list except for the oily Costco muffins. I love those muffins. But, then again, I’m gross.
