People I try and avoid
January 16th 2007 08:28
There are some people in this world that just for some reason or another not only get on my nerves but seem to jump up on down on them frequently enough to make my head hurt. I have compiled this list that is only partially complete. I'm sure knowing me that this list will grow exponentially very very quickly.
SCIENTISTS
In my life I have found that some of the most untrustworthy people are scientists simply because they base everything they have not on fact but on theories. How can you trust someone who thinks they know the truth but aren't sure exactly? Can you imagine living with someone like this? "Have you seen the keys?" "I think that the keys may have been deposited on the hook in the kitchen about 25 minutes ago by an offspring that you and I created, but more research needs to be done to be conclusive." or how about "I don't think you should have that last piece of cake because first of all it has 2,500 calories, and when it hits your stomach it will send all of that fat and sugar straight to your fat cells. You will then need to run an extra 45 minutes to try and burn it off and if you don't then it may just give you acne."
Einstein, Pythagoras, Sagan, Suzuki, Hawkins...We all know these people are apt to change their minds at any time or some other scientist is going to come along and either create a new theory or contradict an old one thats already there. There are these shows, either a documentary or a made for tv movie that show what would happen if there was a major natural disaster such as the eruption of the mega volcano in Yellowstone National Park, a firestorm that wipes out Sydney, a cold front that combines with a hurricane that drowns London or when half of Las Palmas slides into the sea when that volcano erupts and the resulting tsunami travels across the Atlantic and wipes out the whole eastern seaboard of the US along with the islands of the Caribbean. My favourite though is that in 2029 we are going to be hit with a meteorite that may wipe us all out. So according to the scientists we may as well pack up our stuff cos we're all going away!
There were days when eggs, potatoes, milk and chocolate were on the bad list. It was thought that sweet food was exclusive in acne and the Atkins diet was the answer to weight loss. Some scientists spend their days testing new medications and treatments for people only to find that when some of them are approved there are still problems. Scientists can't even agree on whethere we're in the middle of global warming or it's just a case of a phase the earth is going through. I had to stop listening to all of them because my ear drums were about to burst.
AMERICANS
Now I don't have a problem with Americans per se but they have this attitude that I'd describe as "comfortably smug". If I were a US citizen I wouldn't be smug. I'd be more than slightly ashamed that many of the US sportstars think that if they can't win or be the best they have to win by "any means necessary". It doesn't matter the sport that they compete in, they must try and find a way to try and win.
On a different note I found a statistic recently that said that roughly about 70% of the internet (which Americans boast so proudly of inventing) is porn. Why doesn't that surprise me?
NEW ZEALANDERS
Our little sheep loving cousins from across the sea. Thats more than enough reason to keep my distance.
EXPERTS
There are some people who just experts and thats their claim to fame. "Hi, my name's Mary and I'm an expert in paper bags" There's an expert in everything these days isn't there? Wherever you have a curent affairs programme and say a story comes up about a discovery of something extraordinary like ancient soiled underwear in Timbuktu. They find someone who is an expert in guess what? Ancient soiled underwear!!! Incredible! I've been looking at getting a degree in being an expert, but sadly I haven't had much luck so far.
PEOPLE WHO OVERINDULGE THEIR PETS
I'm not just talking those who dress up their pets and give them a manicure and an expensive haircut. I'm talking those who go overboard and give them nothing but the best foods, massage therapists, acupuncturists, pet psychologists, soft beds and haute couture clothing! Might I remind these owners that they are pets, not people and don't need that much pampering. The worst thing I've seen is this lady who claimed she was a pet psychic and could communicate with pets living and dead! Wait! I've got a message for someone reading this out there who had a dog and a cat died when they were little. They want you to know they're still at each other. The cat says it has something to tell you really need to know. They were having a secret torrid affair. Nothing emotional just physical.
LIFE COACHES
Who are these people, and where did they come from? Do people really need someone else to tell them what to do, to inspire them? Where are these people's senses? Not only that they pay them good money too to make their decisions for them! My God! Here's a suggestion if you can make a decision to find a life coach you can damn well find a way to make your own decisions! Stop being so reliant on someone else to tell you what to do, get off your backside and be brave enough to take responsibility for what you do in your life!
WOMEN WHO HAVE TATTOOS, A CIGARETTE IN ONE HAND, CURSE WORDS COMING OUT OF THEIR MOUTHS AND MEN WHO WEAR EARRINGS
I was told that the world was turning upside down. I didn't necessarily believe them because a so called expert said it. Now if you told me 15 years ago that the best golfer in the world would be black, the best rapper would be white and that men and women would exchange places in terms of their masculinity I would have laughed in your face. Just exactly what is the fascination with body art? It just looks ugly. Especially combined with a cigarette in the right (or left) hand of a woman. Ugh! But there's nothing worse than a woman who has nothing but curse words that fall from her lips.
In recent times young men think it's cool to wear more than one earring in both ears. What nonsense is this? Where did this come from? Who started it? Do they have some underlying issues that need to be addressed? It needs to stop. Thats all I know.
My worst nightmare is of tattooed kids who have more than earring in both ears who needs a life coach. Heaven help us all.
