whaddaya hate? how come?

In My Humble Opinion
1

The term hate is a strong one. This thread is meant to be concerned with a kinder, gentler hate… if I had been more careful, I might have posted " What do you regret the passing of, and what do you regret the ascenscion of?"

Anyway, here’s a few of mine…

I hate that people who all need the same things, to eat, to sleep, to dream, to hope for their futures… see themselves as so different that they are compelled to reduce themselves to hunks of bloody meat to prove a point they are never quite capable of defending or advancing.

I hate that art is all around us, music, painting, drama… and it is reduced to pointing dumbly at life, huffa huffa huffa like a dog who is eager to please…and too many of us are busy watching television to scratch art’s head and pay attention.

Ditto your dog , if you have one.

I hate that not many people appreciate Bob Dylan, though he often hasn’ t deserved it . But when he does… your’re a fool for not thinking he deserved it…

I hate the fact that a lot of folks, due to lack of time, which is somewhat understanderable, or waste of time, which ain’t, have never listened in the dark to a George Jones song…

I hate longwinded motherfuckers, which is why I’ll continue this later, but only if anyone cares. …
Oh yeah… you really don’t need to jump in here and scorch my ass for any perceived political slight. Hell, I don’t want to have to stake a position there… this has so little to do with politics.

Are you sure you didn’t mean to post this in the Pit?

I hate people that hate my Pugs.

Oh wait, you wanted light-hearted, not “I want to shoot this guy” hatred. Never mind, carry on.

Why is this in Cafe Society?

Well, he did mention Dylan.

Moderator speaketh:
There’s no reason for it to be in Cafe Society, and I’m moving it to IMHO. One could argue that it belongs in the Pit, but it feels more IMHO to me.

strangecurrencies, you’re fairly new here, and a couple posts in the wrong forum is not a big deal, so no sweat. If you hit the wrong button by accident, definitely no big deal. If you meant for it to be “what do you hate about the arts?”, that would be OK in Cafe Society forum, but that’s not what you said. If you’re confused about the different forums, you might want to read the forum descriptions on the main Message Board page.

I have no class. I hate Bob Dylan and I think he may have bee dead since the late 70’s.

8

I hate the fact that 97% of people, upon hearing that I like the works of Stephen King, assume that I must also like the works of Dean Koontz. I come close to despising Dean Koontz.

Preach it!

I hate that, as a man who became a father finally at the age of forty, I probably would not have had the respect and appreciation for my children had they been born when I was in my twenties.
I hate that we had to spend eight years and untold thousands of dollars trying to get pregnant. I hate that my wife had to go through hundreds(!!) of injections to fiddle with her reproductive system and that our boy/girl twins were conceived through IVF. And I hate that our son’s twin sister died only three days after she was born.

Jeez… sorry to be such a bummer. These things have been weighning heavily on my mind recently.
I feel better now…
…well, a bit better, anyway.

I hate that GrizzRich had such a loss. :frowning:

But on the upside, we need all the good parents we can get in this world so I am glad he is amongst us.

:slight_smile:

I’m not going to lie. I really, really, really, really hate celery. This really is hate of the level bordering on vegecide. I would love nothing more than to be able to implement some sort of intelligence in it, just so it would know that it was me, Audiobottle, who was the source of it’s obliteration.
Oh, and I’m not too big on blueberry yogurt. The stupid seeds get stuck in my teeth and the fruit on the bottom kind of blueberry yogurt is all kinds of nasty.

I’m totally with you on that one. I can’t even sit near my husband when he eats it because I can’t even stand the smell of it.

I hate:

kitchens decorated with geese
bad grammar (it’s like nails on a chalkboard)
nails on a chalkboard
snakes
seeing people getting flu shots on the news
the current state of top 40 music (hip hop, pop-“punk”, rap)
people basing their vote on talking points and spin
NY Yankees (go Bo Sox!)
my current haircolor
Thomas Kinkade
the new Super Walmart in North Greenbush
being so obsessed with my fertility while trying to get pregnant
the cost of pregnancy tests
Britney Spears
SUVs
the fact that I can’t afford an SUV
people who drive slow in the fast lane
trying to quit smoking
staying sober
when my cat vomits in my shoes

Ben Stiller, Will Ferrell, Owen Wilson, and anyone involved in the kinds of comedies they star in should be gutted with a rusty butter knife. Their constant success is a total mystery to me.

Aside from them, I can’t think of anything I especially hate except for people that think they’re being cute and/or clever in mangling something’s name to show that they don’t like it. The only example I can think of offhand is Taco Hell or, in the case of my user name, Ass Iron.

People, it’s not clever in the least.

4 years is fairly new? :eek:

16

Or pigs. In fact, I hate that whole “country” look in kitchens.

17

I hate the current (well, it’s been going on for decades, but whatever) apparent need to have noise/music everywhere. Why can’t we have some peace and quiet?
