I'm sick of superlatives. "Best ever!", "funniest video" etc.

Like the word "awesome", superlatives mean nothing anymore.

Fuck your superlatives. They are lies.

Talentless hordes clamouring for attention. It's getting bad here too.

Have one of your maids squirt the lime.

Kudos for maintaining eye contact during the limeshot.

when i was little i used to be very annoyed when after reading an interesting film or show title in the tv listings, e.g. Cyclops, and eagerly anticipating it, it turned out to be something completely different and inexcusably dull. i remember that peeve ended with Kiss of the Spider Woman, though.

rushing to the car, driving off, rolling the windows back up because of the smell of manure, no good, the smell is still there and getting worse, arriving in time and realizing that i had stepped into poop on the shortcut to the car. it's not a big problem to clean the sole and its grooves, had plenty of opportunities to get skilled, just need a fine stick, a puddle of rainwater, a patch of sand. the bitch is that the brake and throttle pedals are plastered with shit too. lots of toothpick sized grooves in them.

ah, poop on the shoe, realized in a closed vehicle. its fruity, sour notes become much more prominent in that particular enclosed space.

Shit happens. People who crash their car into another on the motorway causing loooong delays. I don't want anyone to be hurt but I would like them banned from driving for a bit. I just can't help but think the majority of "accidents" are avoidable by not driving so fast and so close to each other.

People who comment every facebook post by Joey or Frank by quoting Pixies lyrics vaguely related to the topic. Yeah, they already know the song. They wrote it.

Mispronunciation of the word aesthetic. especially by those who espouse being in a creative enterprise - specifically, contestants on Project Runway. if you're going to be a designer, you should know how to pronounce the word aesthetic

it's aesTHetic
not, as-tetick

It's all about confidence. Seems to me every single fucker leaps blind trying to pronounce the word heinous. It's a word that has escaped the pen like a marmot.

What I suggest is, "Fuckers! Learn to speak dictionary!!!". It's the lack of confidence that's so unappealing.

naive suburbanites who donate their unwanted possessions in person only to then be robbed of their wanted currency.

street wise city folk who take what is all too easy to grab off naive suburbanites who make themselves an easy mark.

Mom got robbed today. At least she wasn't punched in the face

Ah, Noork

Automatic paper towel dispensers that only give an absurdly small length of paper towel at one time, forcing you to stand there and wait till the red light goes out so that you can get yet another infuriatingly small sheet. argh.
