Oh, my list of petty crap I hate that tons and tons of people do is long and amusing. [NOTE: this is not the whole list, just a representative sampling of my petty bullshit.]

There's a gaming skew in my peeves. People who use rouge instead of rogue (seriously?), and for BSG, confusing Morale and Moral.

(My sharing my hatred of "anywho" with The Boy has led to him using it as much as possible, to see how long it takes me to go insane. Evil.)

Could I have more privilege to resent the presence of "hetero" in heteronormativity? I think it makes it sound like it's about heterosexuality, and it's not.

So, I need to let it go.

Also, I suspect I have learnt I may have been being naive about gender politics again.

Wait, what? I thought it was. Or, at least, a social enforcement of heterosexuality as the ideal.

It's also an enforcement/endorsement of traditional gender roles, which has nothing to do with my heterosexuality, thank you very much.

Can anyone explain why people "like" their own posts on Facebook?

Oooh, fair point.

For the same reason that people laugh at their own jokes?

I get this, I think. You mean how it could be assumed from a couple in a hetero relationship that the man is taking the traditionally male role (decision-maker, bread-winner, etc.)?

Laughing at your own jokes is sometimes out of your control, though!

(I think I'm very funny...)
