In the world, people hate lots of different things; everyone has their pet peeves, which is totally normal. However, there are also the things that everyone dislikes with mutual passion, you may not even think about them until you come across them, but they are most definitely hated when one does; here are the ones I could think of:
1) Ketchup Water
Picture this: it is such a nice day, your family has decided to have a barbecue, your burger is so beautifully cooked you are crying, you have a brand new bottle of ketchup, you unscrew the lid and take the metal film off the bottle, you screw the lid back on flip open the cap and aim over your burger, you squeeze and out comes some beautiful... ORANGE WATER. We have all experienced the nightmare of ketchup water, a product of unshaken tomato ketchup. It can even happen sometimes when you've shaken the bottle. Life is so difficult and unfair.
2) Slow Walkers
It always happens: you are in a rush, you have to walk somewhere in two minutes when it usually takes you 5 to get to that place, so you are walking super fast, you are doing so well, nearly there, it's just down the road and you come across the dreaded slow walker. Slow walkers are very common in London, maybe it's all the air pollution getting to their feet and making them move at a snails pace, or maybe they were just born annoying. Once you have come across your slow walker, you then have to walk at their pace because they are so in the way that you aren't able to meander past them; resulting in you being late to wherever you were going.
3) Grape Conmen
Everyone buys seedless grapes. Everyone. Why, in your right mind, would you buy grapes with seeds? However, on numerous occasions, I have had a box of seedless grapes and about 60% of my grapes have seeds in. Not only are grape seeds bitter tasting and disgusting, but they stay in between your teeth for hours afterwards. Seedless grapes are actually more expensive than regular seedful grapes, so when I come across these deceitful "seedless" grapes, not only does the grossness of the seeds anger me, but it makes me mad that my mum (or whoever bought them) paid an extra pound or so to have grapes with no seeds, only to get grapes that are full of seeds.
4) Adverts on Youtube
I don't think I actually need to explain this. It isn't so awful when you get the option to skip the ad after 5 seconds, but sometimes you have to sit through the most boring advert for a couple of minutes before actually being able to watch your desired content. The worst thing is when you're listening to a playlist on Youtube and you are waiting for the next song and you hear "The new collection from SimplyBe!..." Not okay.
5) Couldn't Think of a Title for This One
I'm sure that everyone must have come across this at least once in their life- you have done some sort of exam and everyone has just received their results. You are really really pleased with your 67% seeing as you thought you were going to fail so you are feeling pretty chuffed. One friend is looking really sad so you go up to console him/her and they tell you how "75% is not good enough! It's sooo bad!!", you slowly lose faith in your mark that you were really proud of and then your sad friend says "What did you get?". You tell them and immediately they exclaim "OMG that is soo good! Well done!". Sometimes the awfulness just ends there because you say thanks and walk away, other times (when you're feel mouthy) you respond with "but you just said 75 was bad" and then (here comes the killer) your "friend" says, "yeah but, 67 is good.. for you." Those people deserve a punch.
6) Running out of Toilet Paper
This is mainly a problem when you are using public conveniences. You are bursting for a pee, so you don't look before you sit down and once you're done.. it is too late. Sometimes you are fortunate enough to have a friend waiting outside the cubicle for you and you can subtly ask them to pass you some loo roll, but if you went into the bathroom completely alone, you are stumped. There is nothing to do in this situation. Horrible.
7) People Who State the Obvious
This isn't such a majorly hated thing, it is just very irritating and not everyone is aware of it. I'll admit that I have, once or twice, stated the obvious; but there are some people who literally do it all the time. Like "it's raining!" "You're wearing shoes!" "You're drinking water!" "Blue!" "Orange!". I know, I have eyes too. Would you like a medal for your observation skills?
8) Downers
There is always someone that loves to put a negative spin on everything you do or say. For example, you walk in one Monday morning and tell your friends "Guess what! I got a puppy!" and the negative person will inevitably say something like "Puppies poo on your carpet and then they grow up into big dogs, and then they get older and die". No exaggeration. Do those people take pleasure in ruining your happiness?
I'm going to stop there because I don't want people thinking I am a hateful person because I'm really not. However, if you think about it you will realise that you also hate these things, along with everybody else.
