Some irritants

I've been irritated a lot lately:

  • Politians wearing chambray shirts with the wilderness in the background of their commercials.
  • People who think they are self confident but their actions show otherwise.
  • People who are cheap-- there is a difference between being thrifty and being cheap.
  • The fact that Dyson does not sell replacement belts at any stores in Castle Rock.
  • Soccer culture
  • Parents who wear pajama pants and slippers to pick up their children at 4pm.
  • People who don't return your friendly smile.
  • Plantar Fasciitus
  • People complaining about their self-imposed problems.
  • Needy people who crave attention.
  • Local news (what else is new?)
  • NPR's new weekend schedule
  • Annoying Muzak in public places (ie. Michaels, Homegoods, Nordstrom Rack)
  • People who get in my personal space while shopping.
It's not you, it's me.

What about people who dress for the weather but don't dress their kids for the weather...like parents wearing coat in snow and kid is wearing a slip. and snow boots

Ok what about people who dress themselves to the 9s but skimp or their kids or vice versa--darling kids and not so darling themselves!

People with purse-puppies bug me. They aren't babies, they need to walk, too!

Ok so, Kelly- Thanks for bringing that one to my attention- I hadn't realized it yet, but you are right, that irritates me.

Natalie- of course we can still be friends as long as you aren't the politician.

Beth- I actually thought about adding that after I published my post because that is just weird to me.

Emily- you crack me up! I hate purse puppies too- what's the point of carrying a small dog with you everywhere?

I'm annoyed with people who diagnosis themselves and then can't even spell plantar fasciitis.


Okay so I had to call you on that one. Now the score is Alyssa 192. Korie 1.
