- Poor grammar. Examples: its/it's, your/you're, there/they're/their, and any use of the "word" irregardless. After all, irregardless of how lazy your being, its not that hard to use proper English. [<-- that sentence makes me cringe!]
- Professors who repeatedly mention how behind they are on their lecture schedule, yet consistently end class early without using the full lecture time.
- Being asked to write a thank-you note. What does a thank-you note mean, anyway, if you had to request it? Thank-you notes for birthday gifts will be forthcoming, as they nearly always are.
- People who make up and/or spread rumors.
- Putting so much tupperware on the top rack of the dishwasher that half of it doesn't get clean. And putting wooden spoons and/or measuring cups in the dishwasher with the concave side facing up, so they are full of dirty water and chunks of food when you take them out.
- Classmates who act inappropriately toward professors who they feel do not deserve their respect. The irony? You're paying tens of thousands of dollars to people who think those professors are the most qualified people to teach you. Joke's on you!
- Huge exaggerations and drama about how we'll all be dead from swine flu a month from now. And not-so-subtle insinuations that I have swine flu and am behaving in a terribly socially irresponsible manner by coming to class, a mere 7 days after the onset of my cold symptoms.
- Having to replace a contact lens before it has lasted as long as it should.
There, how's that for a cheerful post to close out the day! I promise to be happier tomorrow. :-)
