Hateful/Lovely

Hateful

1. Rude people, more than anything. If I can make the effort to say "please" and "thank you" to you, I'm pretty freaking sure you can say it back. It's not that bleeding difficult, and it makes you look better.
2. Superiors who think they can be rude to you. For God's sake.
3. Sometimes, you introduce a friend to a TV show or a band or an author, and at first you are pleased because they like it too, and now there is someone with whom you can share your adoration! But then they act like they discovered this band, and they act as though the amount of love they have for this band eclipses EVERYONE ELSE'S. This irritates me like nothing else.
4. People who try to make a point (especially, but definitely not limited to, people on the Internet) but their facts are not facts because they are wrong/entirely made-up/paraphrased to mean something entirely different than the original meaning.
5. People who think that their opinions should be the only opinions.

Lovely

1. People who hold the door open for you. This may sound simple, but it doesn't happen that often anymore.
2. People who say exactly what they think, so there are never any mixed messages. It doesn't mean be rude, it just means be honest. You always know where you stand with these people.
3. When adults find a way to treat a child like a child without babying him or her.
4. When people are willing to deal with you even though you are acting like a harpy and probably ruining their mood. Sometimes it's nice to know that people can deal with you if you act like that occasionally. Occasionally, permanent harpies of the world, occasionally.
5. The genial idiocy of a group of people at three o'clock in the morning when they like each other and have had a sizable amount of sugar.
