5. Wal-Mart, the corporate giant. I hate that Wal-Mart shoves its way into communities that do not want it there; one good example is Covington, WA. They wanted their community to be one such as Bellevue’s, not like Tacoma. Even with Wal-mart there against the city and its patron’s wishes, the city itself is still trying to show a sense of classy-ness and Wal-mart luckily is in a back corner, where it belongs. Also, because Wal-Mart is so cheap, it tends to bring in a lot of crime to the area, don’t believe me?! A Wal-mart in Lakewood, WA was just robbed a few days ago with one person (a security guard) dying and at least five robbery suspects are in custody. Wal-mart says they are great for neighborhoods, bringing in jobs for the community… really?! When a Wal-mart employee calls the cops and holds down a customer until the cops get there because that customer is trying to use a legitimate $2 bill, they should probably re-think who they hire. I choose to boycott Wal-mart.

4 LA Traffic. I hate how I am only driving 8 miles, yet it takes me over an hour. It is mainly in the Beverly Hills area, but still. WORST TRAFFIC EVER!

3 People Who Leave Public Restrooms a Mess! Seriously? It is not like you are at home, and even if you were, would you really leave your toilet looking like that? I know that most of the public restrooms, well, all, except port-o-potties and even then they sometimes do, have people who clean them, but seriously? I do not want to walk into a public stall and see your nasty crap floating in the toilet or your nasty tampon waste floating in the toilet and blood all over the seat, OR the toilet seat cover that you JUST used still sitting on the toilet seat. You have to turn around and flush the toilet, and unless you are mentally disabled (which I think even they know better) can see that there is something wrong here… It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out how to flush a toilet. The toddler I used to nanny for even knew better than that and she was only 2. GROW UP, be responsible – you nasty, nasty people!

2 Obese People. I have no sympathy for you what-so-ever! If you would have watched what you ate, or even ate the normal 2,000 calorie diet a day you wouldn’t be in those shoes. I do not want to hear you blaming McDonalds or some other fast food joint because you cannot control yourself or your eating habits. Workout for a change… walk to your mailbox, walk around the mall, do laps around McDonalds if you’re going to eat there, don’t get lazy on society and use a freakin’ electric wheelchair…seriously?! You really have given up, not even using your arms for a workout. If you have gone that far off, don’t expect America to pay for your fat ass! I do have sympathy for those that have genetic issues who do workout and who do try and eat a healthier diet and still cannot lose the weight, I do have sympathy for you.

And last but not least: 1 Ignorant People. Knowledge is power. If you are afraid of something, chances are you do not know much about it. Read up, learn, study it, step outside the box and listen to someone else’s side of the story instead of just your own. The main thing that brought this on was a comment on Facebook about gay marriage. People are afraid of gay marriage because they know nothing about people who are gay. Talk to someone, read about it, there is absolutely nothing wrong with it, we live in the 21st century, it is a way of life and a perfectly fine and healthy one.
