Pet Peeves


            Liars, fanatical Christians (well any religion for that matter, but Christians are just the first that come to mind), racists, selfishness. I absolutely hate those! I"m not the only one though; everyone has things that just get under their skin. I, for one, have tons of pet peeves; however, it would take more time than I have to list them all.
             Liars. Ok, sure, everyone lies, there's no doubt about that. But people that lie all the time, what's up with that? People should be able to tell the truth, no matter how much it hurts. Ignorance is not bliss, my friend. For instance, if something happened to someone who was extremely close to me, I would want to know. I would not want anyone holding out information on me, just because I"m "too young", or "too immature", or even because "it's just not any of my business". No, I don't think so. Even if that was true, I would still want to know what happened. Another example, people that lie just for the sport. They don't care who they"re hurting, they just won't tell the truth if their life depended on it. .
             You"re probably thinking, where is this girl going with all this rambling? Well, just last Tuesday, my best friend, we"ll call her Jane, fainted in school and didn't wake up until the following Wednesday. That's all I knew until I talked to her two days later. During that time, I was worried enough that I didn't get any sleep and could barely eat. All this because her mother would keep changing her story. First, she said that Jane was sleeping in her room and couldn't talk. Twenty minutes later, she claimed that Jane wasn't home, and she wasn't all right. Finally, she said that Jane was in the hospital and .
             she wasn't breathing. What am I supposed to think about this? For all I knew, Jane could have been laying on her death bed. If Jane's mom wouldn't have lied to me, I wouldn't have been nearly as concerned as I had been. .
             Another thing that irritates me: individuals that consider their religion as the only way to go.
