Ok, so I can excuse being a few minutes late picking someone up because of traffic or something, but 15-60 minutes late?? That sucks. I'm only 15, and so I don't have my license or anything, so when I need to be picked up at a certain time, I need to be picked up at that time. It sucks being stranded somewhere, having to wait for a ride. Also, I dislike it when people are more than 5 minutes late to classes. Seriously, get your act together.
I personally hate being late, because I always feel so awkward walking into a room/building/gathering late. Everyone looks up at you and stares until you finally get settled, while you mumble half-assed excuses the whole way.
Unless someone died, you or someone close to you (physically or emotionally) was physically hurt, or you were in some sort of crash, there's no excuse to be late. So get a watch and be on time!
2. Clingy people
Why do people do this? Are some people just not loved enough as children, so they feel the need to cling to people who clearly don't want their company, but are too nice to say so? Do people like this really just not understand that they're being clingy? Really? Gah. This just seriously aggravates me. It puts me in the awkward situation of whether I should be polite, or finally get some peace and just tell the person to leave me alone.
This is another one that I personally hate doing. I am constantly wondering whether I'm being too clingy. This may be the reason I don't have any definite best friends... hunh. oh well. I have many awesome people I can hang with who don't get fed up with me. I'm good with that. :)
3. The sound of nails being clipped
eeuuugggghhhh! I HATE this sound. So. Much. It's like nails on a chalkboard to me. Bleh.
4. People misspelling things/having poor grammar on the internet
One great thing about the internet is that we can see what we say and can edit it/think it over before posting it. So please, for the love of god, check your grammar and spelling before you post. Chat speak, I'm ok with. The occasional mistake that you missed, and correct later when someone points it out, I can accept. But really, if you don't know the difference between "except" and "accept", when "your" and "you're" are supposed to be used, the difference between "they're" "there" and "their", how to spell simple things like "Wednesday", how and when to correctly use capitols, or how to properly use apostrophes, please go back to school and learn these things. It makes teachers disrespect students and young adults as a whole when they see people abusing the English language like this, which is quite annoying to the rest of us who do know how to speak and write like educated human beings.

5. When people put their finger in their ear and wiggle it around to get earwax out or to itch their ear
Do I really need to explain this one? It's gross. Please don't do it in front of other people.
6. Insulting someone and calling it a "joke"
It's not a joke to that person. Not when you make a comment about their hair, or their choice of music or clothing, and then brush it off as a "joke". It's a bitch/dick move. Don't do it unless you're positively sure the other person is fine with you doing it. Doing it because you want to get laughs, or because you're having a shitty day and need to feel better somehow, is not a good enough reason. There is no good reason for doing this, so just don't.
7. When ppl bitch about stuff and then don't do anything about it
If you don't like something, at least make an attempt to change it. for example: #4? I try to correct people's spelling and grammar when I can and without being too rude. It's hard to do this nicely. But I'm trying.
8. When ppl don't try to do something, and just write it off as "too hard"
Come on people. Try things before you give up on them. Seek help from someone who is good at the particular thing you're struggling with. Don't judge something by comments from friends/family. Try it for yourself!
9. When people judge other people for their taste in movies/music/tv
Some people like watching Firefly. Others enjoy iCarly. What does it matter?? You shouldn't base a friendship on someone's taste in music/movies/tv shows. Everyone likes different things. Accept it and move on. Don't bitch at people because they like listening to the JoBros or JBiebs. Let it go. Oh, and don't bitch at someone for watching/listening to something you yourself have never watched/listened to and never intend to watch/listen to. Watch/listen to it first, then make a judgement.
(This is exactly why I don't trust anyone's opinion on movies but my own. I have to hear/see things before I make judgements on things)
10. P.M.S.
It gives me mood swings and I have to apologize to people afterwards because I snapped on them for no reason. It sucks. and makes you cry a lot. If you are a boy, you're damn lucky to not have to go through this.
11. Being yelled at or getting in trouble with people in authority
This sucks. I always feel like a terrible person, and it usually just makes me hate said authority figure, or be pissed for the rest of the day. Bleh.
12. When skinny girls say things like, "I LOVE eating!" or "I'm such a PIG!"
Let me explain. I am not a skinny girl. I'm of what you'd call an "average" weight. I have always been conscious of my weight, and what/how much I eat when I'm in front of other people. So, I really hate it when skinny girls get to say "I LOVE eating/food!" because, see, I can't. I could, but then I'd feel as if people were secretly saying, "Ya, we know you do...". They probably wouldn't, but I can't help but feel insecure about things like that.
So please, if you're a skinny girl who loves to eat, that's great! You're confident about your body and shit, so yippee. But please just keep it to yourself. You make someone else who maybe isn't as skinny as you, feel like crap when you say things like this.
welp, there ya go. A look into the mind of Beth. :)
