The Hate List

(Shamelessly pilfered--in concept, not content--from the estimable Badger.)

* White Zinfandel (it's not wine...Hell, I'm not even sure it's a beverage)
* Disco...this one is pretty visceral
* Liver (and offal, while we're at it)
* Artificial fibers
* Totalitarians
* Boot-cut, pegged or flared trousers
* Browned Down Red (don't ask)
* Mass market white bread
* Stupid-ass, numbnuts lawsuits
* Diet drinks
* American Fucking Idol, and the sorts of music that winners therefrom inflict on humanity
* That idiot in the Prius who flipped me off for having a car strictly for pleasure
* Conspiracy theorists
* The texture of coconut
* Regular coffee (maybe it'd taste like something if 75% of the water was missing)
* The 1970s (aptly called "that ghetto of a decade")
* Star Trek and all its permutations
* Seattle grunge music
* Modernism
* Cancer (I mean, duh)
* People who titter at their own unfunny remarks
* Taxes (I would have thrown all that tea in Bahstahn Hahbah all by myself)
* Olives (TFBIM is in charge of those)
* Overprocessed hair
* Reality TV
* Drinks with pornographic names (the Flaming G-Spot, Orgasmic Walrus, whatever)
* Chick flicks & chick lit (Do NOT get me started, especially those "Beaches" type things)
* Academy Award injustices
* Atonal music
* Cosmo magazine
* The bed-head look
* People who consider irony the height of...whatever the Hell, like I care
* Repeating myself (this is in a class by itself)
* Neo-urban hipsterness
* Breast implants
* Near-criminal stupidity
* Modern German composers
* Women who sling around the term "Girlfriend" or "Diva"
* Hair implants or, worse, hairpieces
* Male sales associates who keep saying "uber"
* People who overcomplicate things
* People whose parenting styles come strictly from manuals
* Traffic jams
* Automatic transmissions
* Waiting
* Anything which inconveniences or impedes my forward progress

More as my bile rises...

Dude, I'm estimable? Who knew?

Browned-down red has NEVER worked for me, incidentally. Color me disappointed.

Never worked for you and 99.9%of women. They all looked like vampires with chocolate fixations.

On me it looked like one of those recently discontinued shades of Crayola crayons. "Burnt Sienna," IIRC.

Poppy,

That is SO VERY not you. Maybe if you wanted to come across as your evil twin. (An evil twin without a mirror or sense of self, at hat.)
