~The List of Things that Suck~


This list is, of course, incredibly long; therefore only a small portion of it can be recorded here.  However, after the list was partly written, I realized that the List of Things that Suck had already been written in a much more concise form:  you see, the song "Garden Grove" by Sublime actually includes a list of things that suck, in categories into which all other things that suck can be placed.  So if you are interested, I recommend you seek out the song.  It's on their self-titled album.  But here's my offering:

1)  Being a tenth of the diameter of an atom's length tall.
2)  Being on the wrong side of the classroom when the professor passes a sign-up sheet around
    so you end up having to give a presentation the next day.
3)  The word "acknowledge"
4)  Stereos that eat tapes
5)  Paperwork, especially weekly reports
6)  Siblings that eat tapes
7)  The price of CDs and videos
8)  When feminist bookstores close
9)  People who steal the office TV, supposedly to fix it, and never bring it back
10)  Being an ant on a baseball
11)  Being named Onethirdofkenny
12)  Being caught in an elevator in freefall from the ten thousandth story of a building
13)  Repeat diversity videos
14)  Being in a frictionless plane
15)  Being a shepherd of frictionless sheep on a frictionless plane
16)  Being left behind when the Flood came
17)  Being forced by Willy Wonka to push a button which you later learned had turned your
    family into smoking hunks of charred flesh
18)  "Breakfast at Night" day at the caf
19)  Having exaggerated notions of your own importance, and realizing it
20)  Staff meeting at 10:30:  suck suck suck
21)  Having to type papers that could as easily be handwritten
22)  Printer fees
23)  Accidentally going to an antimatter universe, touching something, and being instantly
    annihilated
