There are some things in life that seem to only exist in order to annoy us to varying degrees. Some of these things seem to only be a bugbear to the individual while other of these fractious elements aggravate one and all.
To this end I decided to indulge in a rant instead of a rave and start to compile a list entitled:

Don't You Just Hate...?

• when automatic doors open for everyone but you?
• when your dentist has nearly completed a drilling session and then comments suddenly, "You know, I don't think the prescription on these glasses is quite right."?
• mirrors?
• only having 24 hours in the day?
• when you accidentally knock merchandise off a shelf and it makes a really loud racket so that everybody in the store looks at you?
• when you've picked up the merchandise you've just knocked down and you look up to see someone you know is standing there, watching you?
• how the songs you absolutely adore are NEVER released on compilation CDs?
• how every compilation CD seems to have "My Sharona" on it, even if it is a New Age Alternative Instrumental CD?
• how you only ever remember nightmares?
