[liminal_space]

[note, not really piss off a LOT, but SORT of piss me off. a little.]

-1 people saying they're going to "make a change" then continue to talk about the change they're making without actually making the change at all. 

e.g. — 

day 1: i'm going to stay off social media! it's bad! it's a blackhole! 

day 2: [posts 19 things, with one of them being how glad they are that they don't get on social media that much.]

day whatever: [posts 36 things, reminds people that social media is bad, exalts the benefits they've experienced since they've cut back so much on social media.] 

-2 facebook posts with quotations from literary sources or famous writers when i know — the the point i'd bet my house on it — that these nincompoops have NOT read the books that held the quotes or who could NOT tell you diddly nor shit about the writers they're quoting. 

-3 facebook/IG posts with quotations attributed to a specific literary source or writer that are, in fact....NOT FROM THAT BOOK OR WRITER. ohmygod, the vapors. 

-4 misuse of the semicolon. shh. 

-5 people who think the oxford comma is no big whoop. IT IS A BIG WHOOP.

-6 minority voices (as in voices that are IN the minority not voices OF minorities) being touted as voices that speak for all. 

—7  people telling the same story like every 4 days. ugh!

—8 trump's face. jesus fucking pogo pony, his face. 

—9 the inability to get my car washed in winter. apparently, one doesn't DO that in minnesconsin. 

— the tammy wynette and george jones docudrama thing on showtime. what. the. hell. 

[ok, that's it. i'm not as pissy. lol]
