My Pets

WP asks me introduce you to my top three pet peeves, so without further ado:

People who go on Social Media and put posts up about their perfect lives and their perfect families when I know ‘perfect’ is a long effing way from reality.

People who claim ‘aliens’ and ‘ancient astronauts’ MUST have built the pyramids or built massive cities in the middle of jungles and on top of mountains because the subtext is- could brown people REALLY have done this?

The Valentine Days experience.

I intend to keep my heart in my rib cage and I refuse to ‘give it’ to anyone for flowers, a fancy dinner and chocolates.

The Short List

I hate it when people ask me a question and then talk over me as I’m answering them.

I hate it when I’m standing in line and the person in front of me let their friends  have ‘cuts’.

Most of all I hate it that when I was growing up, my Grandfather used to say that if you had a chance to get your foot in the door- hold the door open for as many people as you can.

Why did he tell me that? Because I used to do that and all I have to show for it now is a flat face.

My pet peeves.

I should name them and give them a place to sleep because I don’t see myself letting go of them anytime soon.
