Post your pet hates and secret fancies.

Post your pet hates and secret fancies, or something like that.

Post some stuff that you love, but would never reveal to anyone (until now!), or stuff that really gets on your nerves, but you can't explain why...

For me, I secretly love...kids junk breakfast cereal. Thats right, I can't get enough of the stuff. Chocolate Flavored Wheetos, Cocopops, Honey Nut Loops, Frosties, the lot!
Its weird, I don't normally have a sweet tooth, or anything like that, but I love kids cereals! I don't go mad for sweets, or chocolate bars, but when it coems to breakfast time. if its frosted, or chocolate flavored, or with marshmallow pieces, or covered in honey, then I gotta have it!
Maybe its becasue of my childhood. I was never allowed to have junk cereals as a kid. I don't mean that in a "poor me, I was a deprived child", spoilt brat kind of way, my parents gave me plenty of "goodies", but never any of that oh so funky cereal.

As for my pet hate: The abuse of Acronyms!

I hate it when people abuse acronyms. Such crap as "recurrsive" acronyms really annoy me for some reason. They seem very popular among people of the computer nerd persuasion. Take GNU, which stands for GNU's Not Unix. Or
PHP, which stands for
PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, which, when expanded stands for
PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor: Hypertext Preprocessor. Which stands for:
PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor: Hypertext Preprocessor: Hypertext Preprocessor...you get the picture.
Or when people pronounce the last word in an acronym, like "ATM machine". I mean what the fuck? You're telling me that you want to use an Automatic Teller Machine Machine? Or on a similar note, over here we have a bank, which calls itself "AIB Bank"...let me get this straight... you own a multimillion pound businees, and you decide to call it: Allied Irish Bank Bank!!??.
Morons, the lot of them .

No your turn. What do you have to confess?
