Quotation Punctuation
I hate when people don't know how to punctuation a sentence within quotation marks. "It always goes inside the marks." "Even if it is a semi-colon;" or "An ellipsis ..." "When using parenthetical citation always end the original sentence with a comma and attribute the material," (Me 145).

Broken Glass
Broken glass is the worst. I broke a shot glass in my bedroom last week. Glass got everywhere. All the nooks and crannies. Plus, bedrooms are places you DONT WEAR SHOES. Often without the light on. At least I have hard wood floors, but I still don't think I got all the bits from under my bed/dresser.
Broken glass in carpet is by far the worst. Bits get embedded deep down. For years they're tucked away until suddenly your barefoot lands just right and.... OUCH. You have to get rid of the carpet. Its the only way to get rid of the glass.
Speaking of which I have a wonderful tale which amalgamates these two scenarios. My lovely room mate decided to leave some cheap glass canisters on the top of a very wobbly shelf in our bathroom. Of course it got knocked over, the canister hit square on the side of the tub- half the shards flying into the tub and the rest mostly landed our bathmat. Pain in the ass to clean up. Hmpf.

Paris Hilton
The epitome of annoying brats.
To give her a second chance I watched one episode of her new reality show. What an ungodly human. Vile creature. Beyond annoying.
