four petty complaints.

four pet peeves.
one: music on blogs. don't do it. we're already agreeing to read your words, we don't need to listen to something you love at the same time. plus i don't know anyone who's reading comprehention increases when they're trying to also thoroughly enjoy a popular song. it just doesn't happen.

two: cropping photography. there's a reason the photographer framed that picture the way they did. it's called "art" (i use that word loosely). you probably don't realize how much thought was spent setting up that picture. don't crop it. not even for your facebook profile picture. thank you from photographers everywhere.

three: talking during class lectures. i'm sorry that one of your most expensive life choices was to pay to be allowed sit in these mildly uncomfortable chairs and talk to your friend about last's nights undesirable conquests. i paid a stupid amount of money to come here and learn, i already have bad hearing, i don't need you complicating things.  please take it outside. (this pet peeve can also be applied to movie theaters. you paid $7.50 just to sit in a room for 2 hours and talk to people you see daily?! do you know how many sangria's $7.50 will get you? nearly ten! and that's plus tax.)

and for the ironic fourth: passive aggressive behavior. is what i'm doing bothering you? stop sending me cryptic messages via eye brow angles and just tell me.

thanks guys. it feels good to get that off my chest.

I love this. Especially the music on blogs one. I've quit reading blogs with music. It's too hard for my little brain. And too annoying if I'm actually planning on reading.
