Gentlemen, how would you like to go through your day, everyday and everyone insisted on calling you and your obviously male friends "gals"?
(Ok. Thanks. I feel a little better now.)
ETA: Other things I hate are autocracy and climate change. But "guys" is way up there.

They lost Sat 2-1, Monday 3-1 and then 2-1 on Tuesday. They scored more runs in one inning on Sundays game than they did in three whole games.
Did not have high expectations this year. Rather them go out right away than have to go 0-3 in the first round.

(4,919 posts)When I was in fifth grade in NC, I learned one of my first truly meaningful life lessons...
For some reason... I told my teacher Mrs. Clemmons, the African-American wife of the school principal, that I "hated" a particular classmate. She sat me down and took the time to carefully and emphatically explain to me how loaded the word "hate" was historically and morally. At the time there were lock-downs at our schools because of race riots at the high school... I remember that we had to break the points off our pencils before boarding the school bus every day.
I don't remember exactly what she said to me that day, but she talked to me while holding my hand at her desk... squeezing it every so often for emphasis. To this day, I wince whenever I hear someone say "I hate" something or someone. I appreciate her for teaching me this.
Sorry, if I pooped on the spirit of this fun thread.

(13,783 posts)... on driving (NYT best seller... sorry can't remember name), roundabouts are safer than regular intersections. The reason is that they absolutely require driver attention.
They don't require anyone's attention and that is the problem. There are those of us who do know what to do and there are those who absolutely do not and do not want to learn. We even have a how-to video on our county website. I really dislike the double ones. They have 2 lanes on each side and on and off ramps scattered about.

2. Bloody movies. I've never even sat through The Godfather. I can understand that there is sometimes a need for violence to tell a story, but why do we all need to see it? If I see someone put a gun to their head, hear a gunshot, and then see a body laying on the floor, I'm smart enough to figure it out. No need for me to see a man sitting on the head w/ gray matter on the wall behind him.
3. The Real Housewives of _____ (fill in the blank). These women have all the money they could hope for and none of them seem very happy and yet they all are hanging around with their unhappy co-stars. There must be someone else they can spend time with that they won't argue with. And if they're that filthy rich, why are they being paid to put their lives on display?
