Things that I hate

[BonitoDeMadrid]

Back on topic:

I hate staying in hospitals. I hate being in a constant state of nose-bleeding (well it's not actually bleeding, more like all the blood clots that remained in after surgery keep coming out). I also hate the helplessness caused by staying in the hospital, being unable to do anything, even getting out of your bed (in the first hours afterwards).

But most of all, I hate it when a tampon is shoved up into your nose, when you're fully conscious. That really hurts. (Though, morphine is fun =) )

I hate trying to make decisions about my future. I have no idea what college I want to go to next year.

I hate...................YOU....Yes I said it, I admitted it. I hate YOU, the person reading this reply. I absolutely despise you. And you know why. Because of what you did, that one time.....It feels good to get this off my chest

[UnnDunn]

I hate people who spit. Especially on the subway.

Being drunk-dialed. Ok, maybe I don't totally hate it... it's just weird. And I do get tired of being told the same thing over and over and over.

I actually hate talking or interacting with drunk people, period. I suppose that's a pretty normal occurrence, but I really despise it. Something freaks me out on a deep level about people acting in ways that they don't normally act.

I've many a time thought about making a post like this here. I somehow feel better now that it's finally been made.

And drunk people are awesome to talk to, I don't know what Mich's problem is.

[BonitoDeMadrid]

I hate school. So very, very much.

Cows. Now, don't get me wrong, I love beef. It's delicious. And nothing tops off a bowl of oatmeal better than a tall glass of milk.

But there's a dairy farm between my apartment and campus. It's about three quarters of a mile from the apartment, so I don't have to smell it at home, but I have to smell those stupid cows everyday on my walk to the law building. Who puts a dairy farm in town? Granted, we live on the outskirts, but it's still inside the city limits.

Now, I grew up in a town wherein there was a corn field and soybean field closer to the middle of town than my subdivision. And, okay, that's weird, too. And I went to a high school were our football team's practice field used to be a corn field. That's a sure sign of Hillbillytown, USA.

But, seriously, cows? Now, that's on a totally different playing field for hillbillies.

^ Agreed

I also hate getting up early to do homework. No human being should start their day at 3:45 am. But I prefer it to staying up late, so unless I stop procrastinating (fat chance) there's nothing to be done.

DVD Director's commentaries.

They take all the magic away. They bore me to tears. "And here we had the camera angled so that it symbolized blah blah blah blah."

And yet, I watch them compulsively. It's a sickness.

[Eaquae Legit]

I like them sometimes. I really like the one they did for Serenity.

[Jayelle]

Joss does good commentary. I've never heard anyone else who was actually interesting besides him.

[starlooker]

Probably the reason I'm stuck listening to them compulsively is that Joss and Nathan Fillion on the Firefly pilot was one of the first ones I heard.

That sentence feels ungrammatical, but I'm too busy to try to fix it.

[LilBee91]

I like the cast commentaries, but directors do tend to be a little dull.
My friend and I watched the LotR trilogy, extended editions, with the cast commentary. It was intense, to say the least.

Group work. I can seriously not remember the last time I worked on something involving CS or something math-y in a group when it did not both take longer than it would have and result in poorer quality work than if I had done it myself. But it's hard to think of anything beyond the past few frustrating weeks.

That is, I hate it when I have to do it. Other people probably work really well that way. And it's not like I don't get along with people or something; I just cannot bring myself to care to actually get anything done when there's another person there. I feel like I'm only allowed to do things that I can explain and/or justify, which severely limits what I can do and slows down everything I do. Instead I just try to have fun and be done with the damn thing as soon as I can.

So f*** mandatory group work and f*** "Extreme Programming". I could probably write a whole "I hate" thing on XP itself, but what I'd say could probably apply to most softeng methodologies.

The current length of my hair. It's too long for me to know how to handle it being down and I mostly look goofy with my hair pulled back/up.
(ETA2:
I've just been informed I look goofy no matter what I do with my hair, so maybe I should learn to deal with it. )

ETA:
Wine. Every single kind I've tried, I've hated. It tasted like bottled vomit to me, and I'm sure it was fine wine...everyone else in the room liked it well enough. I prefer a nice refreshing glass of grape juice.

[locke]

I've tasted a handful of good wines, but mostly I find it bizarre people would want to drink it while they are eating. what a way to ruin good flavors of good food! A lot of wine tastes like dirty sock water to me. sweaty, musty and astringent. I like brighter wines, complex wines and softer bitter notes (bitter I like just fine, it's when the bitter is an assault on the tongue as the primary thing that I don't really like it) in the wine I drink. That usually means I stick to whites rather than reds. I've been at tastings and it's almost bizarre, I swear some of the wines I think are undrinkable people say are their favorites, while some of the ones I find remarkable they don't care for at all. The sweet wines I like most wine snobs hate.

You would probably really like Moscato d'asti though, which is a terrific dessert wine, and it won't taste anything like the flavors you associate with wine.

Right now I'm on scotch though. I just got a bottle of laphroaig and it's amazing. smokey, briney, kindof a seabreeze thing going on. and so damn strong as to make hair grow on your chest. 2 ounces a week is more than enough. mmmm

[Gravity Defier]

and so damn strong as to make hair grow on your chest.

You reminded me: I don't hate, per se, hairy chests but it's definitely not a like.

[Rei]

I love laphroaig. It is awesome, peaty goodness. And wine. And I know it's contrary in this thread, but I really do love both.

I also hate every single wine I've ever tried; ditto with beer. I do like some mixed drinks but I would choose NA beverages almost every time.

[Gravity Defier]

Yeah, I'm that weirdo that goes to bars with a friend every once in a blue moon and orders a Sprite/Sierra Mist. If pushed, I'll get a midori sour or a mudslide but those are about the only alcoholic drinks I like to consume.

I hate beer, but I can stomach Corona more than other beers I've had. I hate tequila. Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of drinking. Severely limits the outings I can go on with my friends, who love to drink, because I don't really like being around drunk people. One idiot does a cough syrup, energy drink mix to have a good time.

[zeroguy]

Add me to the "beer sucks" list. I seem to remember having wine that wasn't bad. Vodka's good, whiskey's okay. [Edit: whiskey upgraded from 'okay' to 'good']

Yeah, I'm that weirdo that goes to bars with a friend every once in a blue moon and orders a Sprite/Sierra Mist.

I'm that weirdo that has never been to a bar (around drinking people/for the purpose of drinking) in the US. Sometimes it really seems that I'm the only one in the whole damn state; certainly the only one I know.

Drunk people are awesome. Well, depending on the person of course; but I have known a few really awesome ones.

[locke]

I've never been to a bar unless it was with my dad (and yeah I was over drinking age at the time) never been to a bar in los angeles. my roommates live there it seems. I drink less because I see them drinking so much. I get too offended at the idea of paying 4-6 dollars for a beer and 10 for a mixed drink when you figure in tip. to me it feels like throwing away money. but I guess girls in general don't have to worry about spending money at bars, at least I've got the impression my roommates rarely spend money there. :rolleyes:

I've been intoxicated, but never so drunk that I threw up. I consider this a good thing, but sometimes I think it's a bad thing and I'm missing out on some important shared experience.

[BonitoDeMadrid]

I've never been drunk or intoxicated, and though I'm below drinking age, I had many chances. It's just that when you're drunk, you lose control of yourself to the environment around you, and I don't want that.

Though, drunk people can be really funny, but there usually comes the time where they start being pissy and sensitive...and then they usually throw up. That I don't like.

(The fact that I've never been drunk doesn't mean I never drank alcohol.. for example, while I were in England with my family, we went into a bar once and I got some Irish Cream- probably best drink ever. Strong, but not too strong, and also delicious)

[locke]

um, irish creme is stronger than you think.

[Rei]

I hate being drunk and generally make a large point of trying to watch myself so that I don't become drunk. And a proper bitter or stout is a tasty meal in my tummy.

[Syphon the Sun]

Mmm, nothing goes better in my coffee than Baileys.

[Young Val]

but I guess girls in general don't have to worry about spending money at bars, at least I've got the impression my roommates rarely spend money there. :rolleyes:

I hate this.

[Eaquae Legit]

Me too. I would rather buy my own dang drinks than have some random guy try and by me them. Also, girls might not have to buy their drinks (if they're into that), but they sure as hell have to watch them closely. Again, I'd rather buy my own.

[BonitoDeMadrid]

um, irish creme is stronger than you think.

Didn't feel like it, though =)
Bottom line, it was tasty, and I didn't drink too much of it (enough to get drunk) so I have a good memory of it.

[zeroguy]

I like how the hate thread has become the drinking thread. ... just like in real life?

[Darth Petra]

I hate beer.


And I hate how I'm not allowed to see R-rated movies. I also hate the "Would-you-watch-that-if-Jesus-was-sitting-next-to-you" lecture I get whenever I ask to see aforementioned movies. Because if Jesus was sitting next to me live and in person, I think I'd turn of the TV and talk to him. And besides, Jesus has better things to do then sit and watch Monty Python with me. And even if He WAS sitting next to me...doesn't He have a sense of humor? (although have a hard time picturing Jesus watching Monty Python on the couch next to me. With a bowl of popcorn. Wow, that's a WEIRD mental image. XD)

I also hate how I get lectured for being heartless, then teased for liking the song "All I ask of you" from Phantom of the Opera. actually, I hate how my parents seemed bent on ridiculing most of the things I like. Like the Sweeney Todd soundtrack. Mom thinks it's weird. Dad gets annoyed and asks:
"why do you listen to that junk?"
Me: "It's not junk."
him: "According to who?"

Now, what the heck am I supposed to answer to that? If I were to say "According to me," I'd get the "be-more-discreet-in-your-media-choices" lecture (which I'm tired of), and if I answer: "my friends", I'd get the "don't-succumb-to-peer-pressure" lecture.
So I don't listen to Sweeney when he's around, and avoid Monty Python references (which is hard, since everything seems to remind me of it).
