I hate...Walmart. That says enough right there, but what brought this to mind was this article. Jeezus!! How many billions of dollars does Walmart rake in each year by screwing over other American businesses?? Forcing companies out of business by demanding unrealistically low costs on items so they can guarantee themselves a hefty profit when they mark it up to sell it in their stores. How much money do they make fucking over their employees on wages, benefits and overtime? Why the fuck can't they fork out the money needed for the road improvements themselves? My guess is the Congressman that snuck this crap in at the last minute will be getting one hell of a kickback from Walmart for doing so. The fucker should be shot and Walmart should be nuked off the planet.

I hate...paper cuts. How can something so minor hurt so fucking much? OUCH!

I hate...buying dairy products at the grocery store and forgetting to check the expiration date before I put 'em in the shopping cart. I bought a container of cottage cheese the other day. Went to eat it last night only to find it was already a week past the expiration date when I bought it. Don't they pay someone to check to make sure the stock is fresh??

I hate...the way women are treated when they take their car in to have work done, be it at an oil change place, the dealership or some auto repair shop. I know at one point it was a "males only" type career. Even today it's still a field populated by far more guys than gals. However...and listen up all you swinging dick grease monkeys...just because women don't relish the idea of getting all slimey and covered with oil from fixing cars, doesn't mean we're clueless about them. Not all of us are naive enough to believe the bullshit you try to feed us about needing this service or needing to buy that part. Quit trying to con us because more & more women are catching on and we spread the news about what businesses to avoid due to scam artists such as yourselves.

I hate...that dried up glob of lotion that clogs up the end of the pump, causing the lotion to squirt out in weird, unsuspecting directions. Since I keep a bottle on my desk, I usually end up with lotion squirted all over papers that got pushed near the bottle.

I hate...that I've been taking a new medicine for a month and only just now read the bottle. I'm supposed to be taking this shit in the morning instead of at night. No wonder it doesn't feel like it's working! I'm probably sleeping thru it's effectiveness period. Fucking duh on my part!

I hate...the war of the fonts. Which, for all those that have never ventured into any kind of chatroom, is when two people that don't know each other "fight" by repeatedly typing insults at each other. Invariably more people join in on either side as others come to the rescue of their friend being insulted. It can be very amusing to watch at times, but mostly it's just pathetic. These wars typically start by one of the parties involved not having a sense of humor and taking something meant as a joke out of context. Other times though, I've seen people deliberately instigate a war for no apparent reason other than their lack of IQ. My guess is these same people that start the wars deliberately are the kind of people that would never confront someone like that face to face for fear of getting bitch slapped. Oh the delusion of power the internet offers to fools.

I hate...that downloading songs from Apple's I-Tunes store isn't compatible with Windows ME. I can't upgrade to XP cuz my computer would probably die from data overload; and I can't afford to buy a new one. Even if I could afford a new one I probably wouldn't buy it. This one works just fine and has everything I need in a computer. It's great that the technology keeps changing, but for something to pretty much be obsolete by the time it hits the store shelves is far too expensive for most people to keep up with.

I hate...that there are so many television stations airing poker games. I didn't think they'd ever hit a lower level of boredom than airing golf or bowling, but they sure proved me wrong. YYYYAAAAWWWNNNN!!!

I hate...being down wind of a Dunkin Donuts when they're "making the donuts". Talk about a nauseating smell. Krispy Kreme doesn't smell that bad, what's up with that?

I hate...when people can't throw out magazines after they're done reading them. They have stacks and stacks of them just taking up space. They give excuses like what if I need to refer back to an article I read. With the number of magazines some of them have lying around, they probably wouldn't be able to find the magazine an article was in if their life depended on it. Once you're done reading it, it's pretty much trash. THROW IT OUT!

I hate...liars. I think we've become a nation of liars. Everyone lies about everything. Even if they don't have to, they lie anyway. Why? Because everyone else is doing it! I've had people lie to me about all kinds of strange things. Like what time they got up in the morning, what they ate for dinner or what color shirt they wore...as if it makes any difference what the answer is, so why lie about it?? I have no idea why everyone is so afraid to tell the truth these days. It's very disturbing since lying to me is the #1 reason that'll get me to hate someone for the rest of their life.

I hate...Hotwire.com. What is it with them not wanting to tell you what hotel you're staying at and where it's located until AFTER you pay for it when you can't cancel the reservation? What if I don't like the hotel? I'm just guessing, and I may be wrong, but I would think most people that are looking for a hotel care what hotel it is and where it's located. Do people really want to take a gamble on something like that? You could end up at some no tell motel that rents rooms by the hour. I took my business elsewhere.

I hate...when people talk too damn fast when leaving a message on my answering machine. Could you slow it down a bit so I don't have to rewind it 100 times just to write down your phone#?

I hate...that they only sell Reese's peanut butter eggs at easter time. I LOVE Reese's and the eggs just seem to have the perfect chocolate to peanut butter ratio for me. Guess I'd best start stocking up now while I can (insert piggy snort here).

I hate...stubbing a toe on something (today it was the stairs, I got a lil clumsy), damn that hurts like a mutherfucker. Why the fuck are toes so sensitive to pain anyway, of all body parts?

I hate...lima beans. I'm a big veggie person, I even loved veggies as a kid. But what idiot thought these things were edible? And why do they insist on including the nasty things in packages of mixed veggies? Yuck!

I hate...the sound of another person chewing. Be it with their mouth open or closed, if I can hear it, it makes me gag. Completely ruins my appetite. Must be why I prefer crowded, noisy restaurants despite my anxiety problem. No quiet romantic places for me, unless you're eating sushi or something moist like that.
