10 Things I Hate About You...

Remember the movie by the same name? A modern interpretation of the Shakespeare classic The Taming of the Shrew...

For this contest, I want people to submit a list or short rant of ten things they hate, or despise, about someone.

With a catch...

These must be about someone you care about. A parent. Your best friend. Your boyfriend/girlfriend. Your partner. A sibling. Or another family member.

It is interesting in life that the people we care about the most often do annoying things. Things that make us twitch. Pet peeves. Stuff we hate.

Submit an entry in either of these two forms:
* A list of ten things
* A short rant of the ten things


Rules:

1. Note the relationship you have with the person in your AN's, but please don't name them.

2. Must be either a list or a short rant. Please keep the word count below 500.

3. No poetry or short stories.

4. Be civil. Use swearing only where it is appropriate. Don't molest the shift key and please show your understanding of English comprehension by not using chatspeak.

5. Correct grammar, spelling and punctuation is appreciated.

6. Entry must contain ten things. They can be big peeves or even petty dislikes - I want them all.

7. Some silliness is allowed - afterall, some things that annoy us can be as ridiculous as hating how someone slurps green jelly...

    Ten things I hate about my friend,

    1.Her I'm-So-Perfect attitude.
    2.When she makes-up boyfriends she never actually had and then used pictures of Zac Effron(?!)to make everyone think he was real (as if).
    3.Her annoying attitude, e.g. constantly whining even whe she gets what she wants.
    4.The way she treats her friends when she's in a bad mood (or a really good mood)starting an arguement because (for instance)someone said they liked her bag(?!).
    5.The way she gossips about people even when they're there.
    6.The way she has something bad to say about everyone, no matter how nice they are or what depressing thing they're going through at the time.
    7.She acts all flirty (and even though I dont like to say it, much. Slutty) around anyone who is male.
    8.She cannot take a joke. At all.
    9.But she doesn't mind making fun of others.
    10.(I know this is really petty,) She is taller than me.
