Things that bug me.

Thankfully each of us are very different.  We are not bothered by the same problems.  What things bug you? 

One of the things that bug me are people who brag, especially the one who are obviously exaggerating.  On Tuesday evening I went to the Angel's baseball game with my son.  He does not exactly look like a son any more because he is fifteen.  He is six feet, 3 inches though, that is why he looks so much older! Anyway, we were at the game, the Angels were playing the Detroit Tigers.

Shortly after we sat down a family came to sit behind us.  One of the boys, probably in high school, started bragging, he hardly stopped during the whole game.  He said that in order to make the home team look better the person operating the radar gun for the pitchers pitching speed cheated.  He said they measured the home pitchers when the ball left their hand and the away pitcher when the ball crossed the plate.  How the person with the radar gun managed to measure two different points which are separated by one third of a second (.33) I don't know.  In fact it seems impossible!  So that's how he began.  He continued when he made the home team's batting averages seem not as good as they were.  He would say, "Oh, .295, that's not a very good batting average, and his slugging percentage is only .395."  Seriously!  Okay, those numbers are not Babe Ruth or Hank Aaron numbers but they are very good.  Anyone who has to demean others in order to look good has lost a lot of credibility in my book.

What bugs you?

One thing that bugs me is that when I play my ipod touch and my brother wants to play too. Like one time I was playing Fashion Story and Bakery Story. Those games are my favorite games. I was about to go on level 24 in Bakery Story. I just got grounded for a week because of my stupid brother. Whoever wants to add me: fireworkkp My storm8ID

The thing that bugs me was when my friend kept bragging about how smart she was and how many things she can do better than anyone else.She would also be showing off how smart she is by telling everyone "I'm so smart i can beat everyone one.She would also show off that how fast she could run and my other friend would dislike her and we wouldn't talk to her for about a whole week or so......Then no one wouldn't talk to her for a whole day.But she felt lonely and she finally found out why people ignored her.After that problem she would still brag and she still does and she goes on and on and on......

One thing that bugs me the most is when my little brother or little cousin copy me at anything I do. For example, when I want to go swimming and relax they go swimming and make tons of noise! Even though I hate it sooooo, everyone says they look up to me :)

One thing that really bugs me is my little cousins. When they come to my house they always poke me and say "What are you doing? What are you doing?" It makes them really annoying to me. They also scare my dog with their loud voices because they usually have no indoor voices so my parents make them go outside with me to walk with my dog and when they get close to my dog she stays away from them. Their always annoying me with their poking and bothering my dog and yelling. Sometimes they always trip and laugh too much when I ask them if there okay get up and say yes i am I was just tricking you. They break my stuff sometimes and that bugs me so much that I tell them to be quiet and stop, very loudly. They still bug me every time I visit them or when they come to my house.

Like you Mr. Aitken, bragging people bug me.

They would go on and on saying. "I'm smart because I can do whatever whatever whatever." "I know this too." "I have this blah blah blah in my house." "Yes, I got it right." BLAH BLAH BLAH! Instead of making me impressed. They make me hate them for being so blah. I don't care about whatever you know. Don't tell me show me! It's okay if you honestly show your talent at the appropriate time. Don't just randomly shout it out. There have been so many people I've met that do this.Get a life! I know you have talents including the talent to annoy me by shoving supposedly awesome information into my face.

There's a boy in my grade who used to brag a lot of what he can do and what he has. Easily other people discovered that these were lies. He was not well liked.

I also dislike hypocrites and bigots. They find everything that they do themselves is okay. They criticize everyone else of being bad.

There is this girl in P.E. When we play melon ball, she would yell at people for not catching the bal. Yet she claims that people yell at her too much when she doesn't catch it.

There's a boy in my class who finds people who are different freaks. What is his flippin' problem? The world would be supreme boringness if everyone was the same. For example if someone likes a certain food that isn't that bad or if one likes an activity he would go on about how disgusting or weird that person is. BLAH BLAH BLAH. IDIOT.

There's also a girl who talks behind everyone else's back to make herself feel better. Get a life!

Another girl tries to be funny all the time and follows people (including her crush) around everywhere. It was really creepy.

I do not like the racist and mean guard ladies at our school. No explanation there they favor their children because they are related and our nicer to Mexican and Hispanic kids. The mean guard ladies would yell really loud at us when we weren't doing anything wrong like sitting for a little when one doesn't have lunch.

I especially hate the stupid rules at our school. Three people can not sit on a bench. I do not get that. Besides its our decision to sit there. We don't feel squished. Why do you tell us if we get to sit there or not?

In conclusion, I have a pet peeve over people who use double negatives in their language, like "Don't touch nothing. I don't need nothing, etc." It just makes me feel like they are uneducated people.

I feel like I am a criticizer right now- ranting on about people, but yes I do not like these people.
