<p>twitter - I don’t get it</p>
<p>I don’t get:</p>
<p>-Twitter
-People who “can’t stand” sub-60 degree weather (read: EVERYONE in Florida)
-Bandwagoning (rooting for the team/person who’s on top then moving on to the next)
-Why Midwesterners are considered “Yankees” to southerners
-Grits
-Butter on pancakes
-Curling
-Marching band (I was in it for 3 years and regret every second)
-People who plan too much</p>
<p>Actually, I don’t get big breakfasts in general. All I can eat is a granola bar or banana in the morning or else I feel sick for the rest of the day at class/work.</p>
<p>Gigantic piercings and oversized male earrings (both ears) on anyone who is not from an indigenous group of people. (And don’t get why the opposite sex of those so adorned would find that sexy, unless <em>they</em> are from an indigenous group.) </p>
<p>To go along with that, chopsticks and pencils driven through such piercings on men. (Eewwww.)</p>
<p>(Not even closely related):
Oprah.</p>
<p>Don’t get me wrong. I’m thrilled that she’s successful and rich. She deserves her success, and she’s done some good with it, as well. I don’t get adulation and surrender of one’s own ability to make choices, by the females who worship her. I don’t get believing that someone else’s common sense and ability to become informed about everyday events is superior to one’s own. It’s as if she’s privy to some rarefied repository of knowledge not available to the non-famous.</p>
<p>For that matter, I don’t get TV talk shows, period. Never have. (Never got Phil Donahue either.)</p>
<p>Earlier this week, I just saw that ear-piercing-loop thing for the first time. Yikes.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Same here, but substitute “Rush Limbaugh” for “Oprah”.</p>
<p>^^^I agree with the Rush Limbaugh comment.</p>

Getting drunk</p>
<p>Thank you…that felt good.</p>
<p>heavy metal music (sounds like noise to me)</p>
<p>super dark or nihilistic music (unless you are in training for mental illness and/or suicide, why put that negative garbage into your head?)</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>That’s why my winter clothes consists of neutrals and browns while my summer clothes are white and navy. One brown purse for the winter, one navy one for the summer. Ta-da!</p>
<p>What I don’t get is women who switch purses for outfits. I mean, isn’t everyone as lazy as I am?</p>
<p>Something I don’t get to the point of anger is NASCAR. Don’t get me started on that!</p>
<p>Why my dogs, when they make that sound like they’re going to barf, rush to find the nearest area rug to puke on??? Most of the house is hardwood floor or tile with a few areas rugs and they always go for the rug, darn it!</p>
<p>I don’t get
Caring what other adults do in their own home
( that doesn’t harm or endanger others)
Spite
Bad music
Bad writing
pantyhose
violent video/computer games
violent movies
the appeal of " reality" television
Actually the appeal of television altogether- who wants to watch commercials every 10 minutes?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>They think the rugs are just big towels. They’re trying to save you the trouble of cleaning up after them. :)</p>
<p>People who use lawn chemicals. I don’t get it. Is polluting our lakes and streams worth it just to have your little patch of the American dream a tad greener? Do you not understand that you are messing up the watershed where you live? Who gets affected? We all do! People like to swim in CLEAN lakes and rivers. Birds, fish, and animals prefer it as well. </p>
<p>Also, people who do not clean up after their dogs. The majority of e coli germs found in lakes and rivers are from…DOGS!!! Canine poop! The next time you fail to be a good citizen and clean up after your dog, consider how you would feel if YOUR child got sick after a recreational swim.</p>
<p>The WORST PEOPLE are those who wash their cars on the driveway, wash their paint brushes or dirty containers outside, and let all of that dirty, chemical-laden water go down storm drains and into, again, LAKES AND RIVERS!</p>
<p>People who mess up the environment are NOT good neighbors!!!</p>
<p>^^^My dog does the exact same thing!! (barf on the nearest rug) It must be genetically programmed.</p>
<p>Dogs don’t like for things to splash up on them so they will choose an absorbent surface - the reason they don’t prefer to pee on concrete.</p>
<p>“Dogs don’t like for things to splash up on them so they will choose an absorbent surface - the reason they don’t prefer to pee on concrete.”</p>
<p>I also have a dog that heads for the beautiful rug in my living room that matches my furniture just so, rather than than the easy to clean wood floors, when he’s about to upchuck. He’s just not out to torture me? That’s good to know. :)</p>
<p>Technology: Ipods, Iphones, Twitter whatever that is, myspace and all those other sites, text messages, video games, Wii whatever that is.</p>
<p>What are these things below the post that say Bookmarks? Some of these I’ve never heard of at all.</p>
