    Mean people suck
    and that include people who are mean just cause they can or to be popular.

    that being said, I'm also annoyed by loud noises in the car, unless that is my music.

    and

    when my youngest son gets so wired he gets slap happy....though he's still cute.

    I an offended by people who have weight loss surgery to force themselves to do better - and then want credit for how well they are doing in their weight loss.

    You GOT that surgery because you could NOT do it. It is a weight loss -but it was forced upon you. You did not gain the loss thru hard work, even though you may have had a hard time going thru what you had to during or after the surgery. The LOSS is not of your doing....no credit for that. We will congradulate you for the loss - but not award or reward you for "all of your hard work". Your hard work is possibly how you got to the point of needing the surgery.

    Once you recover from the surgery, and begin to live life again, if in 10 years you haven't gained back over 25 pounds -then possibly you can feel a bit proud of that -even tho the surgery procedure is still at work for you.
  • 1. When people say: "You're attractive for a dark skinned girl.
    2. When people say: "I thought all black girls are supposed to be able to dance."
    3. When people say: "You speak really proper. You sound "white".
    4. When people say: "You listen to such white music! Why don't you listen to rap?"

    Let me just be clear... Yes, I am African American. I am also Irish, Puerto Rican, and Italian, even if my skin is darker than most mixed girls'. Yes, I can dance but I do not-although I do not have a problem with it- twerk, "throw it back", "dip", get "krunk", or any of that other stuff. My classes pertain to mostly lyrical dancing and hip hop. I speak properly because I was raised that way. Just because I am black doesn't mean that I automatically have to say "ain't", "he be like", "fo real?", "guuuurl", or anything of that nature. And my taste in music is classy. Not white. I listen to pretty much everything except people such as Nicki Minaj, Drake, Lil' Wayne, etc. I'm not hating on them, but I just never really found myself into that genre of music. So please, don't call me oreo. Don't call me white girl trapped in a black girl's body. Call me by my name.

    animal cruelty

    people that are dumb enough to leave their kids and pets in hot cars

    ill behaved kids

    people who judge me cause I take my 12 year old to metal concerts ( like the Kiss concert this coming Thursday).

    and being judged because we allowed our 12 year old to dye her hair blue/black

    child abuse

    and people who make fun of people with disabilities

    Other than that not much.

    Never understood that. Is dark not supposed to be attractive for some reason?

    When someone hangs up the phone but doesn't say "goodbye" first
    Man sandals that aren't flip flops
    T-shirts with huge marijuana leaves on them- so lame and obnoxious
    Improper grammar and spelling from people who know better
    Smart girls who play dumb

    Very little.
    One thing I can think of is people who are so closed minded, they refuse to acknowledge opinions/beliefs of others.
    You don't have to agree with what someone says, but try to be respectful.

    If I put my list on here (albeit a very short one), I'd be considered a troll. I'll just move along and let people think I'm a nice old lady.

    Strong smells good or bad-I have the nose of a bloodhound.
    Not much else-I have a pretty high tolerance.

    I don't get offended easily. I like to laugh and enjoy life. I realize that not everyone has been educated in certain areas, therefore they have very close-minded beliefs.

    ETA: I should add that I don't tolerate abuse of any kind (animal, elderly, child, etc.). Ignorance doesn't excuse that in any way.

    People who take pride in being ignorant, uninformed, and uneducated. On here, that usually manifests itself in the form of broscience.

    loud obnoxious people that think the know it all, no sorry that doesn't offend me it just pisses me off!

    personal attacks I guess would be the only thing that really offends me.

    other then that, not much
