Sometimes I Just Wanna Scream

some things I can't tolerate

Runny eggs, cold feet on a chilly night

umbrella's turned inside out in a storm

my annoyance of mispelled words

prolonged hiccups, loud burps

people that pop gum incessantly 

never a parking space at the malls

fluffy snow turned black, icy roads

sticky fingers in my hair and up my back

burnt popcorn, the price of gas

dirty kitchen floors and no wine refills

the words moist and ridonkulous 

old coffee and running out of hazelnut creamer

raw chicken, knuckles or organ meats

guys with speedos & white reflective  sunglasses 

toddlers with make-up in beauty pageants 

and unrequited love

the list goes on.......................

Most of all what I can't tolerate

none more appalling than the hypocrite

that vile man or woman who spew cruel

that stand on the church steps preaching

whilst denigrating his fellow man

with nasty callous words of contempt 

 Amen

alot of wrong habits which we can not accept. the strange thing is, everyone may look against those habits if you talk to them individually but they are still everywhere! as a teacher who has alot of teenagers students, let me add my scream to yours..

[Frieda P]

haha, nothing like primal scream therapy! Thanks khalid, always an interesting response from you....

[khalid]

intresting responses for great words penned by unique poet..

[Baby Ricochet]

Great job lady. You'll be pleased to know I where surfer trunks to the beach and not speedos. This is America, not the French Riviera.

[Baby Ricochet]

That's wear. Goddamn smartphone

[Frieda P]

Oh thank the Lord Baby ;-)

[Frieda P]

You've obviously never been to Sandy Hook Beach...

[KAOlmsted]

I loved it...even though I have that habit...incessantly popping gum...which is why I very seldom chew it because I actually annoy myself ;-) Great job, Frieda.

Heretic! You're gonna burn, you know that, don't you? But I'll open my arms in forgiveness if you open your pocketbook first. I know what you mean. I have my hate list, too. Fat women in mini skirts, thick legs in boots, old women with ponytails, skirts with cowboy boots, fake eyelashes, the electoral college, 10-year-olds with eyeliner, faith healers, rap (I refuse to call it music), tarot cards, people who want MY arm rest in the movies, evangelists, tattoo addicts, reality shows, country music . . . . want more?

[Frieda P]

Oh shoot, I yanked that ponytail right the heck out! ;-)
Sure, maybe we can just make this a complaint thread, go for it!

[DrD]

Okay, things to hate. . . . just for you and you-know-who

When God created woman,
read moreOkay, things to hate. . . . just for you and you-know-who

When God created woman,
He gave not two breasts but three.
When the middle one got in the way
God performed surgery.
Woman stood before God,
With middle breast in hand.
Said "What do we do,
With the useless b**b?"
And got created man.

[Frieda P]

LMAO!!!

[quinfinn]

you left out my faves....people who talk with their hands in your face(pointing, especially) and those assinine women who bobble their heads like a chicken while spouting idle threats they cant back up with their asses....very entertaining write!oh...and that jerk who cuts you off in traffic and then flips you the bird in his mirror!!!!

[Frieda P]

Egads, there's tons more but I would have bored you guys to death. ;-)

[quinfinn]

i know dear, i could have gone on for hours

[David Scott]

Ha... I was just thinking about a writer who started sending me Bible text and telling me that i was reading filth... The guy has never once read my work or started a friendship with me before he started preaching at me... not Christlike...
We are all hypocrites... I can't spell worth a flying pig. I never act like I think I would like to...
A very fine little ranting for the holidays... At least you said Amen.

[Frieda P]

Well, I did say that I'm annoyed by my own intolerance, and flying pigs aren't worth much these days, but your attention to my poetry is much appreciated. Amen ;-)

[David Scott]

How do you stop being annoyed at the fact that your feeling annoyed? Hmmmm...?

[Frieda P]

You do make me smile, even if you are a dentist. ;-)

[David Scott]

How very lovely dear! My life has meaning!!! Ooops, you have a little something green between your teeth... How annoying! lol

[Frieda P]

See what I mean? :D

[David Scott]

Sorry... I couldn't resist. Must have been a small piece of grinch... I'm glad you ate him!

[Frieda P]

Twas a tasty morsel. ;-)

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

AMEN... yes I agree with many of these... and the last one especially hit a nerve... organized religion is a crock, they are all man made and therefore the ideals of the creator of that religion and not the Creator of the universe. And so many use their stature in the organizations for their own selfish needs.

[Frieda P]

Exactly, so annoying it really does make me want to scream...thanks ;)

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Okay I will plug my ears :)

[Frieda P]

Might be a while, I can carry on a rant for some time ;-)

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Alright I will just put my headphones on till it is safe, LOL

[LA Lorena]

ABSOLUTELY FIRST RATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A solid 100/100 if I've evr seen it. I find it humourous that we have many like dislikes,,,,men in speedos, people who chew gum like a cow chewing their cud (I've actually written a poem about this), and raw organ meat. I could have written this! I wish I had! Kudos!

[Frieda P]

haha now why doesn't that suprise me? Thanks LA ;-)
