That never happens to me.... My classes are very demanding.
I hate having to stress, and study really hard for exams when others don't need to. lol

I also hate when people walk slow.
I hate... traffic cleaning the kitchen yellow, but mostly orange hornets car maintenance when people overuse the word "basically" clowns untied shoelaces the smell of funions (you know, the snack food) anything pickled

I hate people who don´t even try to pronounce th correctly. Germans are really struggling with it. Yeah, traffic sucks.

lol, that's a good one! I don't understand why some people are being taught to pronounce "th"s as "z"s!! Zis is unacceptable!!

I hate that smokers do not think their smoke bothers other people. I hate that smoking is allowed in public places, even outside. In New York City smoking has been banned in all restaurants and bars, which is really nice - it means it's banned in almost all public buildings. But outside is SO incredibly smoky. I bolt down the street weaving around smokers because I hate walking in their trail of smoke.
And almost more than the smoke, I <b>HATE</b> that it's socially acceptable to just throw your cigarette down on the sidewalk. This BOGGLES my mind. This is littering!!! It makes the streets even uglier and dirtier. It's so so so so gross.
Secondhand smoke kills so many people, and it's so horrible! I wish I had the freedom to walk around the city I love without inhaling cancerous smoke that people willingly light up and put in their mouths.

smoking really bothers me too. I hate people who smoke walking around out on the sidewalks and it blows back on your face. It's so disguisting.

Yup, I hate the smoke but somehow people think it´s intolerant. Can´t really understand that since what they are doing is poison themselves and everyone around them it´s not like it´s only annoying like snoring but it´s really dangerous. In my uni there are special places for smokers but they basically smoke wherever you can sit down, even in front of the cafeteria People here are taught to pronounce the th but it´s not a sound German has, so it´s really difficult to form it but they could at least try.

ohio has a new smoking ban that prohibits smoking in or around any public building. no smoking sections in restaurants and so basically you have to smoke at your house or in your car.

I hate when I am driving down the road and the person in front of me flicks their cigarette butt out of their window. I don't want that nasty thing hitting my car!

i hate it when nick's mom really overreacts. and i hate it when his dad says that he's disappointed when people have fun. we went to a friend's older brother's wedding this weekend and the bridal party was drinking a lot and the best man was way wasted. i can understand how that's bad because i wasn't impressed with that either, but it's not a bad thing to drink and have fun if you don't get so bad you can't stand up to pee. i have a feeling that nick's dad will be disappointed at our wedding then too because our friends are party people and it's not our fault that they're not. (i think it was the whole open bar that got everyone lol)

Yeah, I guess you never know how things are going to turn out with an open bar! But you know what? It really doesn't matter how Nick's dad feels at your wedding, with so many guests, you obviously can't please everybody. The important thing is that you guys be surrounded by good friends and have a great day!

yeah, and that day won't be for a few years yet so we've got time after we can legally drink to show him that we drink and our friends drink and yet we can be mature and responsible about it at the same time

I hate tea on my front passenger's seat. That's what happened to me today. I didn't close the bottle very well.
