The Moaning Meme

July 19, 2007 /

Ally Bean tagged me for this meme, one in which you don’t learn my favorite anything…it’s one for complaining a bit. Nice idea, huh? I’ll self promote and say I had a similar (though still different) idea awhile ago.

5 people who will be annoyed you tagged them.

• Maya’s Granny
• ML
• Beenzzz
• La Luna
• Py Korry
(I tagged all family this time! If anyone else is interested, tag yourself, it’s a good one!)

4 things that should go into room 101 and be removed from the face of the earth.

• George W. Bush
• Osama bin Laden
• Dick Cheney
• Eating Disorders

3 things people do that make you want to shake them violently.

• Not vote.
• Spank their children
• Believe the lies told to them, without even trying to find out the facts for themselves.

2 things you find yourself moaning about.

• How our house isn’t selling, and I want to MOVE damn it.
• How our government is f-ing up our country, and too bad he doesn’t stop there, he’s working on f-ing up the whole globe.

1 thing the above answers tell you about yourself.

• I am looking forward to January of 2009, when we will have a new President…and even if it’s a Republican, I can hope against hope between now and November of 2008 that it won’t be a neo-con freakazoid fuck-up loser like the one we have.

RULES
• Link to the original meme at freelancecynic.com so people know what it’s all about!
• Be as honest as possible. This is about letting people get to know the real you!
• Try not to insult anyone – unless they really deserve it or are very, very ugly!
• Post these rules at the end of every meme!

    I agree completely, although I think I would have put child molesters as needing to be removed from the face of the earth. Other than that, our answers are similar!

    J! You swore on your blog!
    That has to swing you over to the PG-13 range by now doesn’t it?

    And might I add that while I tend to stay out of political thoughts on my blog, I’m so glad that you have such a passionate and still accessible voice.

    “…our government is f-ing up our country, and too bad he doesn’t stop there, he’s working on f-ing up the whole globe.”

    SOOOO TRUE!!!

    This is a great list and I agree with them all. I especially like “neo-con freakazoid fuck-up loser.” This is a marvelous use of the English language.

    This is a good one and I may steal it.

    Thanks for your comment. Do I have an email address for you? I found one that starts with jel but the message didn’t sound like you.

    I don’t mind if you don’t want to share your address (lots of people don’t) but if it’s just a glitch in my address book I’d like to have it and label it properly.

    Sorry for not commenting more but I have been lurking. My net’s been down a lot off and on and I’m way behind on catching up with friends. I’ll be reading a post and suddenly none of the lights on my modem are lit. Then it comes back all by itself.

    I agree with every word, except that I don’t want my house to sell. I think that what bothers me ALMOST as much as people so ignorant they think spanking can somehow teach a child anything but anger and violence is that whenever I’ve gotten into an argument with people about it, they’ve discounted my entire life spent studying child development and working with children, assuming that their uninformed opinions somehow count just as much as my informed experience and expertise.

    If the Republicans get in again I’ll eat my hat. Of course I’ll have to buy a hat first, and it’s not like I’d ever wear it anyway. I look terrible in hats.

    God Now I REALLY hope the republicans don’t get in…
