5 little things that make me crazy

Apr 9, 2012

1. Fakes & Liars
I don’t like fake (ripoff) purses, watches, sunglasses or tennis shoes. I especially don’t like fake people. It’s pretty disappointing when I like who I THINK you are, rather than being provided a choice to like who you REALLY are. No fair assholes.

2. Email signatures that include tags like “amazon.com”
I have more than 1 email account — doing an email search for which one of them I used for a particular subscription, I often search using the company name. To see which email address I used with ‘amazon.com’ this morning, my search pulled literally thousands of messages. Stop it already.

3. Self Bragging
If you’re really all that, someone else will certainly get the word out. If you have to “toot your own horn” (as my Mom would say), then I figure you’re not 1/2 as wonderful as you think you are. Giving kudos or bragging about others — like your child’s accomplishments, or a product you want to introduce to others, or your beautiful granddaughter, or your awesome flower garden, etc. — those are all things I love shared. But if all you want to talk about is how perfect YOU are, it makes me crazy. Get over yourself.

4. Whiners
These are the no silver lining kind of people that simply refuse to take responsibility for ANYTHING, and yah, it makes me crazy. Complaining is silly. Either act or forget it.

5. Quitters
There are times when you simply must quit or bail out of certain circumstances — to continue would be a waste of time, and we all know life is short. But to quit and not have a new direction, a new goal… a new ATTITUDE is annoying as all Hell to me. Buck up, do some damage control and move on to the next big thing.

That’s it. Five little things.
