Gel pens suck because they have random streaks where they refuse to write and then the writing looks all blotchy and uneven. <BR/>And the dishes... you're lucky that's the worst thing that drives you crazy. I'm SOOOOO OCD about how the dishes are done I actually don't let anyone else do them. I've gotten mad at friends who try to be nice and wash dishes at dinner parties because they do it wrong, whether it's because they use the wrong sponge, don't pre-rinse them well enough, use the pre-rinsing scrubber to wash them, use the wrong towel to dry them... Ya, I'm THAT crazy.<BR/><BR/>I like the posts where we get a glimpse into the idiosyncrasies of LL...LEOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03081911312259246237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552008288188142238.post-1823094442950620692009-03-26T13:13:00.000-05:002009-03-26T13:13:00.000-05:00Anne, that is exactly it!

I don't like that black ink looks like all the print I'm always having to stare at, and there isn't enough contrast if I'm marking on something already printed.<BR/><BR/>To those concerned about my spice aversion, trust me, I've tried to overcome it and I just can't. I'm a total wimp when it comes to hot foods- I can't even eat the free salsa on the table at mexican places, ever, and I hate that it closes off so many food options! Luckily, most restaurants, especially thai and chinese places can adjust spice levels for you, so I still have wonderful, flavorful meals. (And to Anon, yes, I have been to Arun's, it was amazing and they adjusted each dish for me.)<BR/><BR/>JP <I>loves</I> spicey food and keeps an array of 5-6 different hot sauces to add to just about everything I make. If he's not sweating by the end of the meal, it just wasn't the eating experience it could have been. Like the pot soaking thing, I don't get this at all, but I'm glad spice level is easily adjusted.LLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04431706155081017734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552008288188142238.post-56860291686325049922009-03-26T13:04:00.000-05:002009-03-26T13:04:00.000-05:00Anything but black!!

Since pretty much everything is printed in black, black pens don't stick out enough on whatever I'm writing on.

While he's a brilliant man, he loads the dishwasher like a FOOL. None of the plates are put in correctly, hence, he generally runs the dishwasher when it's not even full.

Seriously. I think my husband just hopes that passes as him doing the dishes and knows that later I will end up finishing the job myself. This also goes for him rinsing the dishes but not following through with actually placing them in the dishwasher next to the sink. I also agree on the people that drive slow in fast cars, Bella and the nut and cooked fruit thing. Everything else though I am pretty OK with. Some of those I actually love like peppers and conservative talk show guys like Rush and Glen Beck.
