Ooo. Pet peeve.

I ask you:

What is the point of asking a supposedly non-rhetorical question if you have no intention of listening to the answer?

I'm going to be so happy when the summer people are gone.

ooh, but you live in paradise ... it's so hard for the summer people to tear themselves away from your part of the world

[i hate emo kids]

i really hate the type that goes something like this:

"would you mind doing [insert task, favor, etc here]?"
"uh.. [insert excuse of the i'm busy, i can't, i don't want to variety]"
"well do it anyway"

apparently ostensibly choice is just to make the person ordering you (for that's what they are realistically doing) feel better about his lack of morality. argh.

Will you listen if I tell you?
