= The Banes of my Existence =

media type="file" key="lexis-muckraker-2011.mp3" A friend of mine brought up an idea that instead of writing about one sole thing that annoys her, she would make a list of many. So, thank you Emily Rath for the inspiration for my blog.

For starters I am a very easily provoked person which is why it is impossible to write about only one issue. So the first thing that annoys me, is that I am annoyed so easily.

**THE EVILS-**
====**That one girl that is in way too many of my classes:** You all know who I am talking about. NO, you do not know the answer to every single question in the world ever. NO, you did not go to that place that no one has ever heard of. NO, you cannot do that. No, no, no! Stop talking about yourself and stop thinking that you know everything because you don’t. You don’t know the material better than the teacher so just stop talking. Forever. I beg of you.==== ====**My Parents(Dad and his girlfriend):** Yes you are very cool, yes all of my friends love you, and yes you feed me. However when you start yelling at me for eating a thin mint something is wrong. Last week I got in trouble Every. Single. Day. So I drove my friends without asking, I see why you’re mad, but not when the day after you TELL me to drive my other friends around... What? And you tell me I can’t go to a party and yell at me, then I wake up the next morning to Starbucks and a new steering wheel cover? What what? And finally the thin mint… It’s a thin mint! And I already ate dinner! And I bought them! What what WHAT? I don’t understand anything you do. And no I am not selfish and I do not take advantage of you.==== ====**My Mom:** Please, please, please leave me alone. There are reasons that I do not live with you any longer and if you call me crying one more time I’m going to explode. And stop asking my dad for money. Get a job, seriously.====

**My Boyfriend:** Stop getting your phone taken away. Start talking to me. And start actually trying to hang out with me. It’s getting annoying and I’m tired of it.
====**My Ex-Boyfriend:** Stop being EVERYWHERE. Why were you at Mr. Foothill? You don’t go to Foothill, you have like no friends who go to Foothill, my best friend won. You have no place being there. And stop asking me for drugs. Does it look like I have drugs?! No, I am not a drug dealer, go away.==== ====**Homophobes:** WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?! YOU ARE INTOLLERANT ASS HOLES. I hope every one of your siblings come out and are gay. And for those people who think being gay is “wrong” I scoff in your face. You sad, sad, ill informed, naïve souls. I pity you.==== ====**People who are mean to my friends:** Just stop speaking because all of my friends are better than you. All of them. And stop causing drama. No one cares enough about your personal life to gossip about you.==== ====**People who thin****k I’m stupid:** I am not stupid or lesser than you. I can take 4 AP classes next year and be perfectly fine. Don’t you dare tell me it’s too hard for me. I know what I can take, you can’t. Just because I don’t do all of my work all the time doesn’t mean I’m dumb. It means I’m busy.====

**People who think I’m wrong:** I’m always right. End of story.
Well Mr. Geib asked for a rant, and I suppose I delivered. If I come across anymore I will add them.
