I hate the hippies who in the 1990s protested turning 620 into a toll road in Austin, TX. Thanks to their "I don't wanna pay for roads that are now free attitude" 620 is a traffic nightmare and I have to take stupid routes to work.

If they just would have accepted the toll then I could cut 10 minutes off my daily 45 min commute.

Also, when you go to a restaurant and they have live music. Music in restaurants is ALWAYS too loud. I don't even have a problem with live music, it's the volume. You have to shout to have a conversation.

This x1000. I don't think I've ever once been to a restaurant with live music that wasn't completely obnoxious. I'm going out to eat, not to listen to you and your terrible band play your shitty music loudly.

Hate is a waste of energy better spent on more productive stuffs.

Many things will fall into a "strongly dislike" but there's few things I hate as much as my mom.

oh and I hate my son's endo

I finally get all the paperwork together. Finally find a pump he likes. Finally get everything done and his endo won't sign off on it. No reason given. Its all set except for them.

I am on the phone lighting them up right now. They used to be the best doctor we went to. Now they are a diabetes farm that pushes us through like cattle. This will be the 4th time they have just not done something that puts his health at risk. Serious risk. I mean his insulin pump is broken and they don't even pretend to care.

I am going to snap on them again. I've been kicked out of their office before and it will happen again.

Exactly. I hate people that think we are going to let Denmark dictate to us how the English language should work.

They should set up an embargo and not sell you any more until you agree to say it correctly. :colbert:

You can play with the dodgy chinese knock offs that are made of lead, cardboard and the tears of disappointed children.

Yep, they're morons. It's LEGOs. The company's name is all capitalized.
LEGO blocks refers to a bunch of the little blocks manufactured by LEGO. But, despite what some pansy-asses think, LEGOs is the idiotic word used to describe a bunch of those blocks. Or LEGO models. Or LEGO sculptures.

What's an endo? Is that what Snoop Dogg smokes?

I be willing to bet that most Legos(!) are sold in the US. :colbert:

I hate people who passive/aggressively call out the mods.

Do it properly if you're that annoyed. I could do with the drama.

I hate people who turn nouns into verbs and think they are cool/hip/etc.

On a side note, does anyone want to lunch with me?
