Annoying things.

So, my first rant. I think I will start with a list of things that piss me off. And I'm sure that I end up doing a number of things that will be on this list :) please don't judge. I'm occasionally a hypocrite, but I try not to be.

1. Lame spelling of words.
Please, people, it really doesn't take that much effort when texting/instant messaging someone to put that apostrophe or exra letter in. You really don't have to abbreviate everything. That is so redundant: for example, "can u pck up my pnecil cse". Come ON people. Like, is that really necessary? Does it take that much effort to just fix a spelling error when you see it and change it or if you spelt it that way on purpose, get real.
I mean, sure, it's fine within a certain boundary. For sure I don't always use capitals when texting and I don't always use 100% correct English, but at least I put some EFFORT into it. At least I try to make an effort so the other person doesn't have to sort through bad grammar, garbled words and no capitalization.

2. People who have a constant need to show off.
Come ON. This is soooo annoying: is it really necessary? I go to a private school, so at least half the people there feel the need to constantly raise their hands. That's fine, sure, but certain people are always showing off (e.g. W & R). They just need to realize that everything is not centred around them. Get real, guys. We don't need to constantly hear your (often stupid and banal) comments.
Raising your hand is fine when you have a point to make. Raising your hand to just talk about random crap you thought of is redundant and unnecessary. Please.

This list will be continued, so stay tuned for more ranting :)
