What is your irrational hatred?

You're a Texan? That explains a whole lot.

 

Oh, I forgot.

I hate everyone in the Human Resources department in a large newspaper in Northern Ohio.

 

I also hate HR departments, and newsy co-workers.

 

The ones with the express lanes are pretty good, though.

 

Don't forget the smelly ones ...

 

Oh, let me just vent...

People who still write checks at the grocery store
People who park in front of a store, too lazy to find a parking space
People who cannot signal because they are talking on a cell phone
Sportswriters who get a little too high and mighty about the job
Virginia Tech fans
Southerners still fighting the war
Talking on a cell phone in a public place
My wife talking on the cell phone when I try to watch tv (I just cannot zone that conversation out. My head must be wired wrong)
People who talk so loud in their own conversation that you have to stop your seperate conversations
ESPN Sportscenter has just been ruined
Sports Guy does not give me bands to try out on Napster anymore (the guy has great taste in music)
Pro wrestling has just been ruined


That's it for now.

 

Cats.

 

Peeing, pooping puppies

 

So, you hate all puppies.

 

Students who don't come to lecture, and then e-mail me and expect me to repeat everything from class in an e-mail so they don't get behind.

Call one of your classmates.

 

Diaper wearing puppies are fine.

 

That reminds me, can you just PM your lecture in an audio file or -- and this would really help -- transcribe it and maybe highlight the good bits?
