Pet Peeves. Everyone has them. Personally, I feel like I have more than the average person and some of them are a little on the weird side. However, before you judge me, I encourage you to think about some of the little things people do that bother you. You might be peeved a little more than you originally thought.
Without further ado, here are 7 of my weird pet peeves.
1. Not Paying Attention During Movies/TV Shows
If I'm showing you a TV show or movie, chances are I hold that show/movie very close to my heart. I'm a cinematic enthusiast, and when stories hit me hard, they hit me really hard. With that being said, I can honestly say that not much infuriates me more than when I'm trying to get someone to appreciate a show or movie, and they're more interested in their phone, or telling me a story about their ex-boyfriend's mom or something. Watching the snapchat stories on loud volume earns you extra annoyance points by the way. And when you miss a crucial detail on the television screen while watching Melinda's snapchat of her at a frat party, don't even think about asking me what just happened. Just watch Anakin's transformation into Vader okay?
2. Current Music
Big butts, alcohol, and drugs. Life has a deeper meaning than that...right? I'll stick to my show tunes and classic rock, thanks.
3. The Kardashians
I guess it shouldn't be that complicated. You either watch the show/read the news or you don't, right? My pet peeve isn't necessarily the family themselves, but the constant obsession with them. I just don't understand it. Why idolize people that didn't have to lift a finger for everything they have? Why strive for an appearance quite literally created by money and plastic surgeons? (I don't care how many times cosmetic procedures are denied. People aren't meant to look that way, and no amount of exercise will give you that body.) Most of all, why obsess over their relationships and babies when regular people do those things every day? Enlighten me. I don't understand any of it.
4. Instagram Models
You're gonna hurt your back posing like that, Allison. How did your brother feel when you made him take 58 photos of you posing by the beach on family vacay?
5. Social Media Politics
Please tell me more facts you got from BuzzFeed. And then call me a bad person.
6. Zits
Not on my face, but on yours. You're going to come to class with a single zit (with its own zip code) staring right at me and not expect me to want to pop it? I don't care how well I know you. Believe me, I want to. I guess feel lucky I'm not more extroverted or I might just ask you. You're a distraction in my learning environment. Pop your zits in the morning.
7. Long Nails
Seriously...HOW do you do anything with those?! I wouldn't even be able to put in my contacts in the morning.
Am I at all relatable? Or just weirder than I thought? I honestly don't know.
