Back to things people hate: I hate TV commercials that I have no idea what is going on.
It started a couple of years back with the camera commercial that had Ashton Kutcher taking pics of some unexplained people in some fancy rooms for unexplained reasons, and now there is a whole slew of commercials that I simply don't know why the people are where they are or the significance of what they are doing.

Its the Mr Ben syndrome, you go into a room and come out in another world!

except for football or the occasional movie yes, I hate TV
which is why I prefer Audio
I still hate WIndows 8. I got it to log into the desktop. Got my start button back and it pretty much runs, but I am plagued with pop-ups and ads I never had in XP. Added Ad-Blocker. Chrome no longer has a popup blocker setting I can find. I keep getting things I don't think I loaded asking me to load other junk. Yahoo just added a fixed add as the first mail line. ARRRRG. How much of this is preloaded by Toshiba I don't know. It took a lot of years hacking the registry for XP, now I have to start overt. I hate that.

I have no car because I hate (and I don't know) drive them, so I need to travel in public buses, here called "Colectivos" (Colectivo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) or more colloquially "Bondis". Travel from house to job and viceversa demands about a couple of hours, and it is of good practise to sleep at them. Therefore, I hate:
1) groups of girls and/or women speaking loudly all kind of foolery all them at the same time;
2) concerts of ringtones of several phones of people, many of them, was pleasantly sleeping while I can´t;
3) people who can't speak to the phone at normal voice levels, but they scream to the phone thinking the counterpart will listen him/her better.
4) very fat women when sit in my adjacent chair‼ Ouch, sometimes impossible to respire

I hate overprediction of emergencies or bad weather that the TV and newspapers fall all over themselves building up. Like the two days of "snow advisories" and weathermen giving urgent messages and when you wake up in the morning there's maybe five inches of snow on the ground.
Or the several months of warnings for the cicada invasion that I barely noticed when it came.

People who post something on e-bay that is one brand, then list five other brands in the tag line. If I want a garbageolla, I would search on a garbageolla. If I want "any" amp, I will search for any amp. When I search on brand X, I want to see brand x. To me, this makes the seller dishonest from the start, and insulting to boot. I asked one of them and he basically told me to stuff it. I hate folks like that. They are abusing the system and disrespecting us.
Snow? People in Maryland can't drive in perfect weather! I live half a mile from the rescue squad. Within 5 minuets of the first raindrop, the meat wagon is rolling.
