Things that I am sick of hearing or hearing about...
Some topics of conversation should just stop! Enough is enough. This list could be added to, but here were the top 12 that have been driving me crazy lately.
1. Brittney Spears life/pregnancy/birth of her child/what she ate today -ARGH!!!
2. Celebrity marriages that don't even last a year (or even 1/2 a year) and right away the solution is to annual it or divorce.
3. Peoples recount of their nights at the casino
4. Our Demorcratic media constantly slamming the president for everything (including breathing sometimes) while calling themselves neutral journalists - most people aren't fooled.
5. The famous line "it can only get better."
6. Along with the famous line "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger"
7. Peoples martial problems during lunch time at work - see a counselor
8. Anything that comes out of the mouth of our administration in our school district
9. The 5 zillion excuses kids have for not bringing their homework back on time
10. Our school social worker saying she'll get right on it because that always means I have to chase her around for weeks and hound her until she actually does it.
11. Kids lying to your face when you catch them in the act of doing something.
12. Anything that associates with the name Paris Hilton.

Ditto on all of these...especially the kid ones and the Brittney and Paris comments.
You forgot to add kids excuses for why they are late, absent, and/or sitting there like a bump on the log.
I'm going to California with Andy and Natalie today. I might hate the phrase "are we there yet" by tonight again. It's been awhile since I did a road trip. (And the whiner will be me, no doubt.)

Don't get me started on #6. People who say that have obviously never suffered, because if they had they would understand what the word "sympathy" (or better yet -"empathy") sounds like, and that ain't it.

I knew people at school who idolized Paris Hilton. I don't get it. Why would anyone idolize a spoiled brat who is constantly lowering the standard for "women of lose moral standing" everywhere?
I'd much rather pick a role model like Julie. Go Feds.

Another thing I'm tired of hearing, "....Everything that's gone wrong in this ENTIRE country in the last 5 years is Bush's fault. He should be impeached because he's an idiot." If we impeached every president who was an idiot we would have impeached 90% of our presidents. Gr. There's this guy that works across the cubicle wall from me, who was mad mad mad because Bush wasn't doing anything about New Orleans, and now that he is, he's mad mad mad because HIS taxes are going to pay for them to rebuild that city. I mean WHERE DO YOU EXPECT THE MONEY TO COME FROM??? MONEY TREES? He actually said (and this is an exact quote), "My money shouldn't be going to that city. Let it sink!" Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

I blame it all on the band Hanson. If those little girls hadn't showed up we'd still be living in a productive economy.

It's sad but true.

Hanson - ah I forgot about those little dudes. I recall one of my siblings buying me the MMMM Bop single as a joke. The memories.
Nice rant Julie. I would maybe put the president impeachment precentage at 99.9%. People tend to forget that they are just men and they will make mistakes and there are a lot more people invovled in making those mistakes than the man in the oval office.

I think we should sink the city. And from now one we'll have Mardi Gras in Michigan.

Yup. Because Michigan is a happenin' place.
