Issues
Posted: May 18, 2010 Filed under: the pet peeves 2 CommentsI’m shamelessly stealing this from Elizabeth long after the fact, but I now present to you:
Things the Internet and Many People Seem to Love but I Do Not
1. Diet Coke
2. The Real Housewives of Anything – I do not get this. Not even a little.
3. reality TV
4. cooking shows – If I can’t eat it, it’s not fun. On TV= can’t eat it.
5. tequila
6. Twilight – the books AND the movies. Especially the fourth book, which I put down and WOULD NOT finish when Bella named that fricking baby “Renesmee.” Especially pissed because Esme was on my short list for baby names, and after that stupid series came out I couldn’t use it because people would have said “Oh, did you find that name in Twilight?” NO. NO, I did not.
7. jean shorts (or “jorts,” if you will) – I do not understand why these are making a comeback.
8. bumperstickers on cars wherein people declare their love for Jesus – Do these people really think anyone is going to convert because of their bumpersticker? I think not.
9. Nuts in cookies
10. Coconut
flip and glib 
I am totally with you, with the major exceptions of tequila and coconut.
And twilight, but I didn’t want anyone to see that.
Oh man, I was afraid that we’d have NOTHING in common since I heartily love #s 1-5. But I am so with you on #s 6-10! Especially jean shorts. I mean, I loved my jorts in middle school, but that was the 90s man. Things were wild and weird back then.
