Hate List

It was a year ago I posted this somewhere, and it came to mind last night while looking at the weed thread.

Posted May 26, 2021
We attended a memorial service last night for a friend. To say that he was extremely unique is a complete understatement, and I won't expound because if you didn't know him you wouldn't understand him.

But there were various speakers, and a couple of his old co-workers shared that they compiled a "hate list" over the years, in humor, of things our friend had said he hated, such as cheese, raisins, Band-Aids, hand sanitizer, and "the other side of the house" whenever he's mowing. It was a long list, two or three typed pages perhaps.

While sitting there I tried to come up with my own list of tangible things, excluding inherently bad things like cancer and diseases, tornadoes, etc, and I truly couldn't come up with anything that I truly hate. Of course, there are some things I like better than others, but if I truly hate something, I can't think of it.

Now, 1 year later, a couple of things I hate have occurred to me. Mosquitoes, for example.

The guy I spoke of above, after he was diagnosed with Parkinson's, told me with a straight face, "I'm pretty shook up about it". I sure do miss that guy.

If the title of this thread doesn't have Homeland Security knocking your door down tonight then they suck at their job.

Raisins. Mayonnaise. Mushy bananas. Stewed tomatoes. Natto. Pine-needle flavored beer. Legos on the stairs/floor. Check engine lights. Pig's feet. Chinese business practices. Mental illness. Demonic possession. Canned creamed corn. Japanese immigration officers.

Everything else is a-ok.

Sin.

Sin and goats. Particularly sinful goats.

And all goats runneth over with sin.
