    I have quite a few.

    1. Religion. Mainly disrespecting religion. I don't care if people agree with me, I do care if they disrespect my beliefs. There's a fine line between disagreeance and disrespect and most people seem oblivious to the difference.

    2. Fad Diets. Body by Vi. That silly hormone injection diet people were using. Stuff of that nature. I get really heated.

    3. Music. This is more 'gets me going' in a good way. I can go on and on and on and on about music.

    4. Cruelty. I hate cruelty in all its forms.

    5. Racism.

    6. I also get heated when people start judging other cultures as inferior. That one really pisses me off.

    ... I could keep going but I won't.

    If I hear my children (or even various adults) say anything that alludes to the fact that something is NOT FAIR. . .I come unglued. I must've had an issue with that as a kid because one of the few things I can recall my mom searing into my brain was the mantra; "LIFE'S NOT FAIR. . .GET USED TO IT!" My kids know that one by heart now, too.

    Customer Service...I forgot that one. I feel like I am a very nice person; probably too nice. When I patronize an establishment, it'd be nice to have the person on the other side of the phone/counter/etc to be just as nice. I understand that we're all human, and have our bad days...but if I'm friendly, why can't they be as well :sad:

    If anyone comments on how the plants I'm eating have feelings.

    If anyone even tries to bring up the whole canine was/wasn't designed to chew meat topic. Other than that, the omnivore/ herbivore topic is interesting to talk about as long as no buttholes are involved.

    Anytime anyone uses God to justify their behavior. I know right....

    Religious people who assume everyone wants to hear how much they love god. NO.

    Religion, violence, and animal and environmental ethics in general are heated topics for me.

    i heart you.

    Who me? :love: :flowerforyou: :smooched: :happy:
    Yeah I agree with the ones you mentioned too. Ugh I had to stop my mom before she even started with me about gun control. I simply said, I'm way too tired and bored to talk about that. That joint hit full capacity very shortly after all the media coverage (and I don't even have cable...).

    I avoid topics of politics and religion like the plague, but I can "go off" on simpler things like:

    [...]

    -The fact that people don't know the difference between "have" and "of"


    That ticks you off? Could of fooled me.

    *ducks*

    *throws stapler at computer screen* UUGGHHHH

    I can probably add this to my list..when people ask me if I've listened to a certain band or watched a movie (like a classic, I guess) and I say no. Then they freak out. And yes, I've listened to The Beatles. It's okay, don't hurt me. :)

    Health Insurance!!! I can't even get started cause I'll never stop. My husband and I pay more in healthcare per month than our rent is and we still don't get the coverage we need. One of my husbands medications, which is required to keep him out of a coma and surely followed by death, is not covered and there is absolutely no other drug on the market that works in the same way. The drug is $1,500 per month, that would be over and above the $1,300 per month we're already paying. We filed grievances and etc etc etc. We exhausted every possible avenue and finally had to start getting it in Canada which is still $150 per month. I can't imagine what we would be paying if we had children! I could go on and on and on with examples, however I've already ranted too much. Sorry and thanks for letting me vent.
