The smell, oh my god, the smell of bananas is THE WORST.

Of course, I pretty much hate all fruit, /(wouldn't even eat it as a newborn baby) and I've just accepted that the world is against me on this one.

I absolutly hate commersials, mostly on the radio (that's why I listen to public radio), but on TV too. And pop ups and Ads on a web site and roadside bill boards and telemarketers......
If I want something, I will know it. I do not want you to tell me how great you think it is by singing me a stupid song about it.
Don't even get me started on car dealers.....

I hate it when:

People drag their feet when they walk and their shoes make a loud scuffing noise.  And... when people smack and pop their gum- ugh!  I think that's more annoying for me than dragging feet!

Joe, I am so with you on radio commercials!

Was on a road trip recently, we were passing through the more rural parts of Texas making fun of this phenomenon, and you know how bad it can be:

COME ON DOWN TO BILLY-BOB'S MATTRESS AND TRUCK DEPOT! WE HAVE A {NAME BRAND} MATTRESS THAT YOU CAN BRING HOME IN YOUR OWN BRAND-NEW {AMERICAN NAME BRAND} TRUCK! FRIDAY NIGHT IS UNCLE JOE'S BARBECUE NIGHT! BUY ANY TRUCK AND YOUR MATTRESS IS FIFTY PERCENT OFF! AND FOR ALL YOU WHO DIDN'T PASS FOURTH GRADE THAT'S HALF PRICE! YES HALF PRICE! BARBECUE ONLY $4.99! BRING YOUR FAMILY! BRING YOUR DAWG! 'CAUSE YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS IT!

I have *every* non-commercial radio station in Houston programed into my car radio.

I don't get that either.  Pool walkers go so slow, it's not like if they were all packed into one lane they would ever collide with another.  Can you even consider pool walking a sport?  Do they have pool walking competitions?  Just curious.  Sorry to hijack.

Thanks for the warning chuky- glad you got my back.  I'm glad I deleted what I originally wrote.  I thought it might offend someone and deicded not to include it.  See- I'm a nice person!

Yep, me too. I have 90.1, 91.7, 89.3, 88.7 (am I missing any?)....if nothing is on any of these, I might go to something else, usually just turn it off. I would rather listen to nothing than commercials!

I know you gotta eat, and maybe your face is shaped funny and you look gross when you eat, but you can't help that, can you? But please, PLEASE, chew with your mouth closed!!! Aggh.

Oh AND, there is a proper way to hold a spoon/fork. If you are holding it like a garden trowel, get someone to help you. Otherwise people are going to think you're from Oklahoma, and nobody wants that...
