My mom and I went to the store the other day, and she was going to pick up some Thanksgiving decorations. But instead we heard Christmas music playing, and nothing my Christmas merchandise! We couldn't find Thanksgiving/Autumn things! Well, I saw some napkins and paper plates, but that wasn't really what we wanted!
You can't play Christmas music until the day of or the day after Thanksgiving! It's just not right! I suppose I understand having a small selection of Christmas items. There's probably some people who are having a big Thanksgiving get-together and would like to buy their tree beforehand, but the amount of Christmas things out and the Christmas music is too much! ABC family always has their 25 days of Christmas. This year they have a countdown with special movies till the 25 days of Christmas. It's craziness!

Grr.
I get so mad at people who lie to you, try to trick you, and then act as if you're below them.
How dare they? How can they feel good about themselves, behaving like that? How can they be so blatant about it?
Nice, people. Real nice.

Creative Spelling?
So, I just read where someone spelled "appreciate" as "apreshyate". I've never seen such a horrendously botched up spelling of that word. That's pretty special.
Note: This is not the same person as in my previous post. This person isn't even a homeschooled student: She goes to a public school. Therefore this rant is in no way related to the previous one. That being said, I feel the need to also mention that I am not picking on public schoolers, just this one particular person's creative way of spelling things.

Embarrassing Homeschoolers
Homeschooling, while good, is not for everyone. It's been an excellent choice for us, but there are certainly some people that should not homeschool. I know of people who are homeschooling, want to homeschool, or have homeschooled, and I firmly believe that they should not be/have been homeschooled.
There's some homeschooled students that are just down right embarrassing to the rest of us homeschoolers.
There's a girl on my Facebook, she's a little younger than me: 15, I believe. And she is an embarrassment to homeschooling. First of all, she can't capitalize, spell, use punctuation or grammar, make a coherent sentence or make a logical argument. I like her, she's very sweet, but she is definitely one homeschooler who gives others a bad name. I cringe to read what she writes.
Today she was posting about the health care bill. I know she doesn't know anything about it, and I know I don't know anything about it, but at least I have the sense to not go around arguing about it. I think people look a whole smarter if they only stick to arguing subjects that they are knowledgeable in. Talk about something you're clueless about and you're going to look awfully silly.
Today this girl was talking about what an outrage the health care bill is and she was saying we ought to start another civil war over it. She went on to say that the bill is breaking her heart, and she thinks Christ needs to hurry up and come back because she doesn't think Christians should have to suffer so much. Really? I think she needs to pick up a copy of Foxes Book of Martyrs.
Why, oh why do those homeschoolers not see they're giving the rest a bad name? And why do people have to meet with just one homeschooler like that and then decide the rest must be that way too?
As Jeremy would say: Blargh.

So Annoying!
You know what really, really annoys me?
People (mostly middle/high school girls) who add extra letters into whatever they're writing!
A girl on my friends list on Facebook ALWAYS does this. She writes "good" as "goooood" or "bed" as "Beddd", and "text" always has at least tree Xs in it, so "texxxt". It's so obnoxious!
I understand the occasional typo, I'm sure I have plenty of typos. But to consistently add extra letters? It's senseless. It certainly doesn't make them look any smarter or cooler, so what's the deal? Why would you do that?
It's definitely one of my pet peeves.
