So, socks keep your feet warm and stuff. Socks are kept together with small seams at the front which are "Practically undetectable" but I am totally annoyed by them! I feel them! They hurt so badly! Socks squeeze my toes! My toes feel like they need to be separated, like in toe-socks, but I cannot find toe-socks!!! Socks are so itchy! They always fall down when I'm wearing long socks, especially when I'm skiing. I hate socks!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know what I hate about TV?
So, many kids my age love TV. I think watching TV is okay. But there's one little thing that gets me every time. Doctor shows! There are so many of them! Why are shows about medical workers so popular? One family member (my dad) that I interviewed said "Because doctors are cool!" But, of course, he is a doctor... My mother, also a doctor, says "Because people find it (shows about doctors) interesting!" One teenage girl that I interviewed said "People like watching bad things happen to other people. When a person gets impaled with an icicle, like on Grey's Anatomy, they are like, 'OMG! HOW ARE THE DOCTORS GONNA FIX THIS?!?!?!?!?' Then, they have to watch the whole show to figure out what's gonna happen, but at the same time, the social life of the doctors is just like AH-MAZING! They are just SOOOO cool. I wish I could be them... etc. etc. DOCTORS ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Okay... That was odd. So, I guess that doctor shows will live on - as will my annoyance with them.
You know what I hate about football?
So, yeah, I know a lot of people that are crazy about football. Thoughts of Gators, Cougars, Seahawks, and other teams cause their minds to stray from important things such as car-maintenance, playing video games, and essay-writing. But me? No, I am not carried away in the confusion of touchdowns, kick-offs, and free kicks. I am much too annoyed by one simple word, a word that every football announcer uses every game. That word is... blitz. “Wow! What a blitz! Did you see #123 blitz past #456, Tom?!” Jeremy Sergeant says – much too enthusiastically – to his partner-in-crime. “Yes, I did Jeremy. That was fantastic! Before #456 could blink an eye, #123 just blitzed past him!” Tom Roman says just as enthusiastically as Jeremy. Blitz, blitzed, blitzing! Here is the (football) meaning of blitz: Act or instance of charging directly for (the passer) as soon as the ball is snapped. To charge directly and immediately at the passer. Did you know that blitz is a shortening of blitzkrieg?

You know what I hate about playing board games?
So, I was playing this game where you are trying to fit 21 pieces on a board. You have to connect the pieces at the corners. You have to play against 3 other people, who also have 21 pieces that they are trying to fit on the 400-square board. It is a very strategic game. So, I put a piece down, and then took my hand away, looking at the board and thinking "If I go there, where can I move?" Then, I said "That's not where I wanted to go," But then, another person that I was playing with said “You took your hand off of it, so you went there!" So I looked through the rules and this is what they said, and I quote, "Once a piece has been placed on the board it cannot be moved" here, the unwilling player said "See?" "But there is more," I said. Again, here is what the game rules said, "Once a piece has been placed on the board it cannot be moved during subsequent turns." So, I was right, right? But no! Everyone else said I wasn't allowed to do that, so I had to keep the horribly-placed piece where it was. Because of that piece, I lost the game.
