100 Things I Don�t Like

If I wrote about the things I like, why not create a list of thing I don�t like? (Inspired by Kristintracy) So, here goes the exercise of rapidly writing about 100 things I don�t like with avoidance of stating the obvious.

1. Hangovers
2. Pretentious people
3. Snakes, especially the one that bit me
4. Dancing- After the age of 23, it just didn�t appeal to me.
5. Trying to commit to work out
6. The aging process
7. Death
8. Rejection letters from companies that express how talented I am but I�m not right for them
9. Politicians
10. The judicial system
11. Egg salad or eggs in tuna salad or eggs in potato salad
12. Having to put away folded clothes. The wash basket is so convenient!
13. Blowing three relationships

15. Talking during sex. Come on! I need to concentrate on baseball and tree species so I can last longer!
16. Scotch
17. American catholic priest. The cover-up of child molestation, payoffs and relocating offending priests to other parishes revealed a corrupt religious organization who value appearance and money over their parishioners. I can�t believe I went to catholic school for sixteen years.

38. Male ballet dancers. �Right now, there is a lot of gayness going on that stage.�
39. The awkward language used by wait staff after they serve your meal and when your mouth is full. �How�s everything tasting?�
40. Eating. After seeing celebritieseating.com, you�ll become self conscious of the faces you make when you eat.

68. Whaling and seal hunting.
69. Hunting for sport.
70. Catfish and how the bottom of a pond feels upon your feet.
