I hate that every yogurt commercial thinks that females are the only ones who eat yogurt while the male frantically searches the refrigerator for food wondering how his wife can indulge on "cheesecake", "key-lime pie", "boston cream pie", "chocolate mousse", etc while stacks and mountains of Yoplait and Dannon are right in front of him. Guys eat yogurt, too, dammit! Except we're classier and go for the good stuff. Like the Greek Gods stuff. Or y'know, the organic, less processed tasty ones. None of that 60 calories per serving BS.

Nah, I eat Dannon. I don't buy into the "organic" stuff.

I hate when I'm typing or posting and I change my thought midway through the sentence, but forget to change my wording. I just did this again. I caught it though it still bugs the hell out of me.

Working in retail. And working "photography" jobs that are just retail in disguise.

Protools. It won't stop looping itself. Randomly. It's like 'I think you need to listen to this measure over and over and over again. You might think you want to listen to the chorus because you're trying to fix something, but I KNOW you really want to listen to these 30 seconds of randomness.' Cluck you too protools.

People who sweep issues under the rug. I'm all for the "I might be dead tomorrow, so lets hash this out now" kind of thing. Dealing with people who avoid confrontation creates such uncomfortable awkwardness. Ugh. Isn't it easier just to work things out asap?

Only if you do it on Jerry Springer. Then it inevitably ends with insults hurled, punches thrown, and a rousing applause from the audience.

I hate when people say they like Buffy the movie, but hate the show. SERIOUSLY?

It's a meme where people post links saying they're to one thing, but when you click it, it actually goes to a video of Rick Astley's song "Never Gonna Give You Up". For more information, see the Wikipedia article.

I hate it when you go out with a girl three times and every time is perfect. Great conversation that lasts for hours, holding hand, kissing, cuddling and even taking a nap together, then the next day she says she's not ready for a relationship and just wants to be friends...... What the hell?

Swenglish and other bad translations. Swenglish is what we call when we try to speak English, but in a "Swedish way". We might mix in Swedish words in English sentences, or translate poorly or translate a Swedish saying or phrase into English, without considering that it's not proper English and might break the rules of the English language. It works the other way to, translating English phrases into Swedish.
I know that we often adapt English words and phrases into Swedish and that it can become "proper" Swedish sayings eventually, but "Kick arse" does not sound good or cool in Swedish. I know all of you are probably used to it, but imagine the feeling the first guy who heard that expression had:
"What? You're going to kick my butt? Like attack me? Kick your leg against my lower back? But I'm so much taller than you, and I'm facing you... It's not suppose to be literal?"
It must have sounded weird, and even tough I'm used to the saying in English, reading or hearing it translated info Swedish is weird. There are Swedish threats that could have been used for translating. I really hate this when I'm watching a subtitled show and I wish that I had gotten hired doing the translating because it's just so silly and ruines the watching-experience.

I hate not having constant acess to the computer. I think I've complained about that enough now that the next post will be "I hate it when Orangejuicepony won't stop complaining about her dead computer."

I hate subtitles. They distract me and I end up reading and not noticing facial expressions.
