5. Anything involving applications to pre-school. Including but not limited to the notion that a year of pre-school should cost more than my three years of law school.
6. Stupid lists.

1. The air-quote is like a Hitler analogy. Use it and your audience immediately starts daydreaming.
2. "Literally" is a Valley Girl version of "actually."
3. Forms are below me. I just refuse to do them. I can write an appellate breif, but will not fill out the notice of appeal. If its got boxes and requires checks marks, I'm not even looking at it. That's bureaucrat work. This is why I pay someone to do my taxes, and look over homes sale agreement shit. I hate forms so much I'll pay anything not to deal with them.
4. Paper is the most insidious detritus. Victoria's Sectret and J. Crew have wallpapered me to death.
5. Applications are worse than forms. They're busy work for mindless clerks.
6. I actually like lists. They're great if you have ADD.
