Oil stains on clothes that you only see post-wash
People who say "just kidding" after they realize everyone is pissed off at them
Shoes that rub your pinky toes
Ignorance
Ignorance
Black ice
Personal space invaders
Under the skin hurty zits
The snooze button
Those who play things with sound from phones or tablets in public spaces without using headphones
Those who play things with sound from phones or tablets in public spaces without using headphones
Carts with shitty wheels
Amazing shows that are available to binge watch, sucking up any free time
Tangled necklaces
What are some of your devils in disguise?
Strapless bras are the making of the devil! They fool me all the time!
ReplyDeletePeople that watch things without headphones in public spaces suck. I hate that so much.
Under the skin zits....ugh.
Ughhh to oil stains, painful zits, and everything else on that list! Also, pets that wake you up in those last few precious moments of sleep before the alarm goes off anyway (this may or may not have happened just this morning), and idiots who pay more attention to their phones while driving than they do to the driving itself.
ReplyDeletePeople who say they care about kids but oppose evaluations/metrics/anything that measures effectiveness
ReplyDeleteThe auxiliary cord that allows my husband to play YouTube lectures at full volume
Sheets that look soft but are actually scratchy
Amen to the under skin hurty zits! I get them in and around my nose. And, to add insult to injury, sometimes they make nose really red, so I look like Rudolph! When this happens, I'm like, "Shoot me now!"
ReplyDeleteHere are some of mine: 1) Hotel neighbors who allow their heavy, metal doors to slam closed in lieu of closing them softly during sleeping hours. Rude! 2) Junk mail - real and virtual. 3) People who don't return their shopping carts to the corral and just leave them strewn all over the parking lot. 4) High heels.
Have a great weekend!
Maisel's picture lol! I immediately thought of Mike Doyle using the pasta spork as a back scratcher! Hypocrisy, heinous crimes on children and innocents, myself for buying chocolate candy I keep eating. The arctic cold ! Bras with no underwire., forget about strapless! TGIF. Love. Your. Momma.
ReplyDeletePretty much all of yours! Plus close-talkers. Any and all political ads. Oh and cat lovers. :) I love that you put Mae's picture on this post. HAHAHA.
ReplyDeleteExcuse me, Hazel's picture. :)
DeleteI hate when I get sucked into a show and spent all my time binge watching it. I don't know how it happens but it does and before you know it is like 5 hours later.
ReplyDeleteOne more to add: Anyone who think its okay to cut their nails in public and public includes the office.
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday!!
Jeans that fit great when you buy them and then stretch and become loose and ill fitting after wearing them for an hour. nothing pisses me off more.
ReplyDeleteI don't own strapless bras any more. I just refuse to buy anything that I would have to wear one with, and I think (fingers crossed) I'm past my years of being a bridesmaid after at least 11 strapless dresses.
ReplyDeleteBlows my mind how McDonalds food doesnt change... lots of food does that. SO SCARY.
ReplyDeleteI have a family member that is FAMOUS for the 'just kidding' thing & it just goes through me like a hot knife in butter... One day, i'm gonna snap & scream NO YOU'RE NOT!!!!
Itches you can't reach are a major pain in the ass!
ReplyDeleteWhen you think you have ice cream in freezer and are super excited to have some, then you find out there is none. lol
ReplyDeleteYES! And especially this one: "Funny memes you're dying to share that have grammatical errors or misspellings". hahah, so true. And YES to oil stains!!!! Ughhh.
ReplyDeleteI also love that your beach image is from the Oregon Coast :) Favorite place.
Hahahaha I love how Mae is the cover picture for this!!! I am with you on allllll of these things. Also, Starbucks having a butterscotch frappucino, the sun out bright before an unstable rain causing tornado warnings, lots of jalapenos in your cheese dip.
ReplyDeletelol, love all of these. Some of them can be combined, like the Westboro church and ignorance! And the "just kidding" once people are pissed at you. And why do I always seem to get the carts at Target or the grocery store with the wonky wheels? I feel like 90% of the carts have wheels that need rehab haha
ReplyDeleteYesssss to all of these! Especially strapless bras, ignorance, tangled necklaces, and McDonalds in general. I also hate when I think I'm going to have a chocolate chip cookie, and you bite into it and come to find out it's raisins... Happy Friday <3
ReplyDeleteOh me and my snooze button battle it out every morning. It's the alarm clock that's the devil. LOL @ strapless bras and fireball. So very true!
ReplyDeleteWBC picketed the JCC I worked at yearrrrs ago. There were like 4 of them on the corner across the street and I'm not even sure what they were objecting to, but they made no splash whatsoever. That was more gratifying for me than it probably should have been—that they made no impact at all.
ReplyDeleteComments sections are where decency and compassion go to die, and I get SO disappointed when I find a good meme that I can't in good conscience share with anyone because of an error.
Personal space invaders get elbows in the ribcage from me.
I have a spectacular talent for picking THE worst shopping cart anywhere I go.
You speak to my soul.
I am sorry but I love Fireball... in small doses. Personal space invaders.... ahhhhh I can not stand that! And a recurring theme for me this week two faced bitches who deliver one backhanded compliment after another and keep on smiling. GTFO.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
This whole list: YES!!! I cannot stand when people do not get the point and keep backing up with you, no.
ReplyDeleteI totally get sucked into the comment sections... bad.
xoxo

ReplyDeleteSomeone actually got into my section of the revolving door behind me the other day. I was speechless. Agree with all of these, particularly the itch you can't get at, the WBC protesters, and black ice. Adding hidden fees, those ridiculously sad pet adoption ads with Sarah McLachlan, not being able to find an available toilet when you really gotta go, and cropdusters.
ReplyDeleteI'd argue that the protesters from Westboro Baptist Church aren't so much in disguise...
ReplyDeleteOil stains are the worst. I've lost some really nice things to oil stains and I'm still bitter about it.
My devils in disguise include overly long and unkempt fingernails and *shudders* toenails. People who eat smelly food on public transport, especially early in the morning. People who file their nails near me, it makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Come to think of it, I may have a thing about nails?
high heels. Other than that agreed on all accounts!
ReplyDeletesweaters that look cute but are itchy as fuck, "fat free" anything that claim to be healther for you but are actually processed to shit.
ReplyDeleteGah, that face. :) My face is all broken out like a god damn teenager, it's cute.
ReplyDeleteI had some lady that thought she needed all the space in the world, on the train home. Leaning into the arm rest, into me.
I could go and on. Great list!
Cute post d accompanying dog face! Sorry about your fall. Reminded me when I tripped into snow when picking up poo because dogs suddenly pulled on leashes when they say another dog. My "Devils" are socks left on the floor and running out of TP.
ReplyDeleteOh, those shoes that don't fit quite right and rub that little toe can make a day unbearable can't they?
ReplyDelete"Just kidding" is bad, but to me "just sayin'" is so much worse because people say or write it after a rude comment. It's the new, non-southern version of "Bless her heart, but..." I'm a firm believer in biting your tongue if you don't have anything nice to say, but if you want to share your opinion speak up and own it.
ReplyDeleteHaha YES to so many of these! The comments section of internet articles is one of the absolute worst things for me. Sometimes I have to force myself to get away from the article before I'm tempted to scroll down to the comments section. I immediately regret that I did so once I see the generally horrible, ignorant things people have to say. Sometimes there are a few good or interesting points, but it's usually just a place where people let out any awful thought in their head.
ReplyDeleteAnd, sort of going along with that, Facebook during election season. (Or, really, any time a major world or national news event occurs.) Yikes.
Personal space invaders really are the worst, especially on public transportation. And why do people feel the need to share their music when in public? They should really use headphones!
ReplyDeleteOhhh. This post got to the core of what bothers me in life!
ReplyDelete7% Solution
Bahahaha! Fireball. I love it.
ReplyDeleteUnder the skin hurty zits are the actual WORST. And I almost always try to pop them. Then they just make me look like a meth head with fucking sores.
I always, ALWAYS, pick the cart with the goofy wheel. Depending on my mood I'll either go back and switch it, or just stick it out. And black ice, yes. I am so ready for spring when I won't have to worry about black ice every morning.
ReplyDeleteI can't do comments sections on news stories anymore, I just get mad at the ignorance that abounds there.
ReplyDeletePersonal space invaders, ugh. I dealt with one of those at Lego Kidsfest this weekend, her voice was annoying too so it was extra bad.
Strapless bras never stay up, so useless. People who talk endlessly are a big pet peeve of mine, I need quiet time.
ReplyDeleteI'm right there with you on everything on this list. Especially the Westboro Baptist crazies! I've even sent them emails before ha! They make my blood boil!
ReplyDeleteAnd the people without headphones drive me nuts! People come in and walk around in the video store like that all the time.
another accomplished weekend for you. You always get so much done!! I am not the biggest fan of giving myself my own pedicures either but do it during the cold weather months. Those chicken wings look delicious! And staredowns with pets are always a good way to pass the time.
ReplyDeletebahahaha @ Under the skin hurty zits. so true. and yes to all the other things. stains and holes in general that you don't see until you are wearing the item, super annoying. i stay away from comments on articles and the like, KC loves them, i swear he likes to make himself mad and convinced the world is full of idiots. i'm like yeah, i know that, no need to rub it in my face.
ReplyDeleteI have to disagree with you on fireball...mix it with some rumchata for a cinnamon toast crunch shot/delight in your mouth!
ReplyDeleteZits under the skin are for sure the devil.
Why yes . . . to all the above. I have been writing down things that bug the shit out of me and janky carts got written down today. But all the others could certainly be on my list. BTW - just getting to some blog reading catch up . . . thus my comments 5 days late! ;-)
ReplyDeleteingrown hairs plus all of the above lol
ReplyDeleteunder the skin hurty zits yes!
