12 January 2006

I've been trying to come up with ten things I hate for the past several day [More:]
And I've only come up with one. I really hate it when you have a glass with a lot of ice in it but not much drink and you tilt the glass to get the drink out and all the ice sticks to the bottom of the glass then comes loose and hits you in the face and splashes your drink on you. Man I hate that.
Everybody hates the Jews.

I'll tell you what I hate. I hate it when you are playing a video game and you are at a really difficult boss and you FINALLY kill it after days or weeks of trying and right at that very second you get off your killing attack, it also attacks and you die just as the death animation begans for the boss. That's what I hate.

I also hate that stare goats give you in the moonlight.

I hate people, but I love gatherings.

I hate people who quote "Clerks" and think they're being clever and no one will know where they got it from.

I hate everything Kevin Smith has done since "Clerks."

Ten things? I can name ten in ten seconds:

10. The new "Crazy-Eyez" nickel.
9. The skyrocketing cost of ever-shrinking Thin Mints.
8. People who see "Brokeback Mountain" and say, "I wasn't grossed out like I thought I would be."
7. Kirsten Dunst's teeth.
6. Decaf
5. People who wait until the end of the funeral to cry and then they just sob as loudly as they can. You're sad. We get it.
4. When bacon is chewy instead of crispy.
3. People who brush off your dandruff flakes for you.
2. Magazine blow-in subscription cards.
1. Jews.

You know what else I hate? People who come to the party too late for the real action.

Oh Lord yes, that is the worst. That is worse than the ice thing.

Taking a big honking bite out of a mealy apple is pretty bad too.

Bacon:

Use kitchen scissors, cut ~1/2-3/4" into the fatty edge, every ~3/4-1" or so. Cook over medium heat.

The nicks lets the slow-shrinking fatty edge overlap and relieve planar tension. This allows maximum and equal contact to the skillet for the entire bacon slice. Flip every so often. You will end up with crisssssspy yet un-burnt bacon. The slice will also cook into a regular rectangle instead of some sad pathetic twisted waste of a rasher of bacon.

Things I hate in no particular order:

- Unwarranted arrogance
- Pretentiousness
- Willful ignorance
- vandals piss-dribblet "taggers"
- Beaurocracy/stupid rules*
- Superficial people
- Myself (not related to any of the above)

* "So why do we do have to do it this way." "Oh, that's because it's the way it's always been done." "But why?" "Well, xxxx did it that way." "Where's xxxx?" "They're no longer with us."
