As it is cold, grey and otherwise crap in Brum, I am feeling in a rant-y mood, so here are some things that make me really mad!
1. Litter - there really is no excuse for it. When I became a pagan I decided that I would not drop litter again, and for the most part, I haven't. Ok so I have pockets full of crap, but I intend to tread lightly on this earth and not fill it full of crap!
2. Fag Butts - see above, but can be even worse as I've seen ppl stubb them out in food, on walls etc. Totally horrid and totally unnecessary
3. Cyclists - road scum! The vast majority obey no highway code, run red lights, ride on both the pavement and the road, make no allowances for car drivers or pedestrians, are rude, and if they have an accident, then it is the other person's fault because they are cyclists! I used to ride a bike, and I was never like this!
4. Block paving - lethel when wet, snaps heels and is expensive
5. Lies - had enough of them from age 11 to age18. Will no longer put up with behaviour that I left behind nearly 10 yrs ago.
6. Rudeness - there really is no need for it, a kind word, smile and good language skills work far better to remove undesirables than plain rudeness, which just gets peoples backs up.
7. Annoying drunks - I don't drink, I've never been drunk, I lose sympathy for ppl if they become loud, aggressive, irritating and otherwise anti-social when drunk. However this does depend on the mood I'm in, but there are those for whom this is a blanket rule, La Whincup being one (although she does know this!)
8. Chewing gum - why stick it where ppl are gonna get it stuck to them! Yuk
9. Prejudiced ppl - no explaination needed
10. Washing-up/ kitchen/ tidiness - I have to have an orderly kitchen, I don't know why, but do feel a lot happier if it is kept neat and tidy! (Joda_vibe - you have been warned :-))
There's probably tons of others, but I do feel a lot better now
*exhale*
