So I am not a heavy smoker but thought I should maybe quit. Even though I really don't think that it gives you cancer. I do think think that is gives you emphysema, yellowing of teeth, and also it smells bad. So I got them. I really like them. I decided I still love cigs, and have cut smoking actual smoking from half a pack (10 cigs) to 4 a day. When I told my mom this, she said "well you really didn't quit smoking than". Gees, gimme a break, baby steps. I am 25 and am not on my death bed yet. Either way I totally recommend them, if you have had issues. Even though I smoke them still, I can really tell now that smoking smells terrible now. Whereas I really didn't notice before. So I think probably soon, I will cut it off all together and continue with the e-cigs.
Even though I am a smoker I hate smokers that do the following:
1. Throw their butts out on the street. I am still under the impression that public trashcans are for this purpose, and believe others should be under the same impression. Don't be an idiot and put your lit cig into the garbage can either... this must be said for all the people that can not think for themselves.
2. I hate smokers that smoke in front of doors, even though the door says PLEASE DO NOT SMOKE WITHIN 20 FEET OF HERE. I am not sure if people don't read, or they have selective reading capabilities. But please stop being terrible human beings and blowing smoke in other peoples faces, when they are trying to go to work.
3. I hate smokers that you can seriously tell that person has been smoking for 50 years, and thus looks terrible. And makes me imagine myself in 50 years, and make me think of quitting smoking. Please smoke inside, thanks!
4. While I don't actually hate this, but I find people that are carting around oxygen tanks and smoking, hilarious. Why is this? I am not sure, it's kind of saying I have given all hope, and hope I can die soon, and thus will smoke as long as I please.
What I hate about non-smokers:
1. I hate non-smokers that have terrible coughing fits, when walking past the smoking area, and are 12feet away from you. Please stop doing this. Not only do you look like you are sick, but it's plain rude. As cigarettes are not illegal in America, please stop being rude, and walk further away from the smoking area.
2. I hate non-smokers, who feel the need to preach to you about how you should quit smoking. As we live in America, no one thinks it is "cool" to smoke. Infact there is so much hate around smoking, everyone knows smoking is bad for you, so please find an appropriate place and audience to sermonize to others.
3. I hate non-smokers, who are actually "social smokers" what is wrong with these types of wishy washy people. I have no real reasons, other than I hate them for being able to do something I can't.
Well in the end I have been watching Nurahiyon no mago (3rd season), the 3 seal guardians are really cool. Not to sound like major idiot, but thats what they are. More like bada** lol. Btw I think the villian has to be my favorite villain in an anime. She is so evil, and there is no wishy washy crap thus far. Like, she had some crap childhood thus she is like this, making us feel pity etc. YAY! let evil villains be evil, no need to stick random pity me montages onto them.

No Hate today
Currently I am sitting at home wondering if I should clean up. For some reason the willingness to clean up is so low when I do not have anyone that will come over. It should be okay, since I cleaned up last weekend. The other day I received a shipment, for the stuff I ordered off of Etsy. I am extremely happy. Although one of the glasses broke. I thought about emailing them and telling them. But, when I think about it could it could have been my fault. Even though I did not drop it and was extremely careful, but I could have set it down roughly. Although I noticed the one that broke was not in bubble wrap and the other ones were.
By the way if you are ever looking for something neat, for your kitchen, or a present I would reccomend going there!
Which brings me to, do most people complain when they receive things that were broken? Do they take things back when it doesn't seem to fit, even though the shirt was only 20 bucks? In the end, I do not. First of all the energy it would take to complain or to send things back, is just not worth it. However, my family is totally not like this. When something is wrong, or she receives poor service, my mom calls and complains or takes the clothes back. Maybe its memories of being embarrassed that stop be from doing these things.

Responding to forum posts
I hate people that do the following in forum posts:
1. Qoute a reply, only to talk about a different subject.
2. When asking a question on a help forum, the 2nd poster asks why you want to do that. Should they care why you want to use it. If you can not respond to the question, do not bother to respond. For instance I said, "Can someone recommend a handwritten font or cursive font for narration text in manga". And the second post was "Why do you want to do that?".
Is there something wrong with people? Do I have to answer this question in order for you to respond? If you have no suggestions do not bother to respond.
I think people think this is the internet, thus I can say and do whatever I want because I can hide behind this blanket of anonymity and say whatever I want (not that I am not doing it right now). If you do this. Do us all a favor and stop doing it. If you can not answer the question. Don't bother to answer the question. Not only is it annoying to the poster, but those that are trying to find answers on the internet. Please be considerate, and stop asking questions that will not resolve anything. I see this on Microsoft forums too. Asking why someone wants to do it, rarely serves as help for answering the question.
3. Posters that double post, there is something great out today called the edit button. Maybe this is something that is hard to see, but I hope one day that all users of the internet will be able to see it.
You can litter your forum post, with tons of smileys, stupid comments, incorrect grammar, and spelling. But I think that people should stop doing the above, it will really make you a better person.

How to reply an email:
Today I received an email, from an acquaintance. It was a response that not only did not respond to any of my questions but went on to talk about a different subject and than they decided to put bullet points marking their points of a subject that had nothing to do with the previous email.
This tells me that not only do people not know how to respond to emails. But, they do not have jobs in which they communicate with emails. So I decided to help all those poor souls that not only do not know how to respond to emails, but that also do not know how to read emails.
1. DO NOT EVER TYPE LIKE THIS. Not only is this annoying, but it makes you look like a jackXXX in them. If you continue to type in caps in emails than you should probably decide to delete your email account. If you are writing a complaint email, if you write in CAPS, this causes the person reading the email, to wait the maximum amount of time before they decide to respond to your complaint, and than they also will give you barely minimum service (which you deserve!)
4. Please reread your friends/coworker/complaint/request email before sending it. Make sure that you answered the questions, and responded to them, and did not leave anything out. As it is really annoying to receive 3 follow up emails after the email has been sent, please avoid this if at all possible. Some people to not separate work emails and personal email, seeing your inbox of 20 emails is overwhelming and annoying and makes people irritated.
3. If the previous email contained questions, answer them. People want to feel like you read their email. This is because they spent time writing this. They would not have spent time writing the email if they did not feel strongly about it (while all of this may seem to be common sense, the amount of people without this trait seem to be abundant). If they were rhetorical you can leave them be...since people you who ask rhetorical questions in emails are annoying and they are not meant to be answered thus being rhetorical.
4. Please reread your email before sending it. This is important, if you can not understand the words that you typed obviously the person that is receiving your message is having a hard time reading it. This is most likely why you have waited a week or a month and have received no response to your email (creepiness is also a factor here, so please be careful of it as well). If you think they are just busy it is the complete opposite, it means that you are indeed incomprehensible, thus it is taking that long to understand your email.
5. Please use spell check. Your laziness shows when you decide not to do so.
Having zero consideration is plain just being a terrible person. Seeing things in words always comes off worse than if they had seen your face in a conversation, and can judge your mood or consider your tone of voice.
That being said:
I hate people that can not be bothered to read the email that was written to them. But have the time to respond on a totally unrelated subject. I hope that they will discontinue riding the failboat that is their life, and will be more upstanding citizens in the future.
I hate people that can give 5 dollars to the church donation basket or give money to a starving kid in Africa but at the same time they refuse to give money to the starving guy on the street. DIAF
