101 Things That Piss Me Off by Rachel Ballinger
4.0
In the midst of this global pandemic, I really needed a lighthearted book that I could read to ease some of my stress and anxiety. 101 Things That Piss Me Off delivered!
Rachel Ballinger is a Youtuber that I watch. I bought this book to support her and get a taste of her quick-witted humor, but it sat on my shelf for a while. While COVID-19 rages on, it seemed like a fitting time to read this book and have a few very much needed laughs.
In this book, Rachel Ballinger uses her satirical humor to pinpoint and expose everyday truths, ironies, and annoyances of the modern world. She offers 101 things that piss her off, as the title suggests. While the concept may seem silly, the 101 things are relatable and encourage readers to ponder about the small pet peeves of their own lives.
Some of the things that piss both Rachel Ballinger and I off are:
- When people type haha or lol- I hate this soooo much. My overthinking mind cannot interpret these for the life of me. Like are they really laughing?! Are they simply typing it because they just texted an ugly truth and they are trying to cover it up?! The awkwardness! Actually all abbreviations. Like “sry” and “wbu”- if you care enough about me, type the whole sentence!
- poop splash- yeah.... enough said.
- pockets on girl jeans- Right?! How are girls supposed to fit anything into such tiny pockets? Gosh!
- When people look over your soldier at your device screen- COME ON! Respect my personal space and business!
Some of these are real knee slappers!
