I hate that commercials are so much louder than the TV show on my streaming service.

I hate the pain in my knees that is affecting every part of my life.
Oh and yes it’s really bad arthritis.

I hate Donald Trump and the Republican party.

@JLeslie omg I agree!!

Other than that, I just hate some circumstances – having to go to phys therapy 2x/week, diabetes doc appt this morning, car maintenance and brakes this afternoon, severe back pain upon standing 5 minutes, filling out a frustrating online application to get approved for the patient assistance program from big pharma, a new community support worker, making a call on Mother’s Day/birth-mom’s birthday – just everyday stuff that I assume most people handle well, but I have a low frustration tolerance as well as easily triggered anxiety.

Oh…and what @Hawaii_Jake just wrote.

@SQUEEKY2 Have you considered a knee replacement? I had bone-on-bone arthritis and after the surgery my knee pain is gone.

@smudges yes but I need to lose 100lbs before I qualify,then go on waiting list and who knows how long that will be.

I have always hated nazis, and I think they should all be killed.

I can’t think of anything.

I hate people that promote and support actions and legislation of policies that hurt other people.

@SQUEEKY2 Oh that’s right, you’re in Canada. I’m sorry for your pain. Before I got the surgery I used a CBD balm and that helped somewhat. Also, maybe a brace would help.

I can’t say I “hate” anyone or anything. I dislike some, but “hate” is too strong a word. I dislike some, am annoyed by others, and am saddened by even more. Though I strongly dislike walking barefoot in the backyard and getting something sharp jabbed into the bottom of my foot. And Liver and Onions. I pretty much am nauseated by that.

@seawulf575 What’s wrong with liver and onions?

seawulf575's avatar

@Blackwater_Park Mom used to love it and we had to eat it fairly regularly. It always smelled and tasted like burned rubber to me. Once I got older and found out what the liver was for, I found even less reason to eat it.

@JLeslie You said “commercials are so much louder than the TV show”

Turn on “Volume Leveling” That is a setting on most smart TVs and Roku sticks. It works.

I’ve been thinking about this and I don’t think there’s anything or anybody that I really, really hate. I have been annoyed with bosses and coworkers but I tend not to hold grudges, and I’m not working now so I’m not dealing with that, anyway. Stores, I will sometimes say “I hate Kohls” or “I hate Stop and Shop” but it’s more of a dislike. People, politicians, I will say “I hate Trump” but it’s more of a dislike. Food, same thing – ok, maybe I do hate olives lol. I also hate raw onions.

I hate it when I order a favorite dish for take-out from a restaurant and their “menu options may nave changed.” I’ve been into a vegetable quesadilla from a local place that was delicious and they’ve changed it to a plain cheese quesadilla that was very bland. Phooey!

I don’t hate anyone. That takes too much effort. I can erase people from my life….it is a learned skill. There are answers for ‘what’ I hate. There is a list of things and the first to come to mind is having to stay in a hotel…............any hotel.

Seeing Putin being sworn in for a 5th term as Russian President in a room of white and gold. I couldn’t help thinking of Alexei Navalny. What kind of room did he die in?

mazingerz88's avatar

I hate killers. Like Hamas.

I haven’t driven, or played a video game yet. I don’t hate anyone today. When I finish Fluthering, I sometimes game it up for an hour or two.
The things called “personal attacks” here, are nothing compared to online talk with other gamers.

@LuckyGuy I’ll check for that. All of my current TV’s are stupid TV’s I think. I need a firestick to stream. I had a smart TV, but it stopped working a week ago (probably just a backlight, but my husband got rid of it). I asked on facebook if anyone wanted to give away a TV and I was given two! So nice, but they aren’t fancy with apps. My firestick works just fine though.

What I heard was cable TV isn’t allowed to blare commercials, but streaming services can.

Hate is such a strong word that causes negative mental and physical effects. There are few things I give that energy to, but one of them is mosquitos. They almost ruined our beautiful weekend camping trip on the Wisconsin River, but we decided to stay and fight them. We ended up having a great time with only a few itchy bites as a reminder.
