Things We Hate

Me - Things I hate, wow! I hate death. I hate TV shows and movies where people die. I hate Justin Bieber. I hate when people are mad at me. I hate when it's too hot or too cold. I hate the Hunger games. I hate pasta with a lot of sauce. I hate ice cream cake. I hate the color orange. I hate horror movies. I hate mosquitos. I hate worms. I hate rats. I hate getting up in the morning.  I hate social studies. I hate lightening. I hate hurricanes. I hate the movie Water for Elephants. I hate Dora the Explorer, and even when I was young I didn't really like it. I hate the Wiggles, and even when I was young I didn't like them either. I hate football. I hate wrestling. I hate boxing. I hate bullies. I hate show offs. I hate kiss ups. I hate people who are your friend one minute and not the next. Unfortunately, I do hate things, but I am trying to cut back on my hates and just have dislikes.

Mom- I hate rudeness. I hate snobs. I hate bullies. I hate mean people. I hate know-it alls. I hate people who take advantage of other people's misfortunes like people who buy foreclosed homes. I hate people who think they have a right to tell other people how to live their lives. I hate negative political campaigns. Don't tell me what they other guy did or didn't do and/or will or won't do. Tell me what you did or didn't do and/or will or won't do.  I hate fish, the kind you eat. I have nothing against the kind you keep as pets. I hate turkey. I hate cranberry sauce. I hate sweet potatoes. I hate pumpkin pie. Actually, I hate all kinds of pie. I hate berries of all kinds. I hate anything with raisins or fruit in it except I do like raisins and some kinds of fruit by themselves. I hate dark chocolate (but I love Milk chocolate).  I hate rats. I hate bats. I hate bugs. I hate possums. I hate alcoholic beverages. They don't make me fun, they just make me tired. I hate caffeine. I hate coffee. I hate tea (hot tea or iced tea). I hate violent video games. I hate horror movies. I hate the show 1000 Ways to die. I hate reality television about famous people's lives. I hate rain. I hate snow. I hate driving. I hate traffic jams. I hate banks. I hate insurance companies. I hate airlines which keep charging more and more for less and less. I hate waiting. I hate wasted time. I hate having to make choices. I want to do it all, see it all, have it all. Life is just too short.

And that's our view. What do you hate?

Tune in tomorrow for Funny Friday.
