Things That Annoy Kerry:
1) It's pronounced NOO0-CLEE-ER. Not noo-cue-ler.
2) A propos is NOT French for "appropriate." I know this is gonna shock 3/4 of the Canadian population, but it's really not. It's French for "about." This is the context you should use it in, if you are borrowing it from French: "His speech a propos the necessity of cleaning the water..."
3) Semiotics is NOT another word for symbiotics or anything else that sounds vaguely like that. SEHM-EE-O-TICKS is about studying symbols and signs in culture. It's about boundaries and where we draw them. It's about how we see the world and how that perception changed through the times. It is NOT about any kind of "half-otic." And trust me, if you're trying to make that joke, it's been done. "Build a bridge and GET OVER IT."
4) I am not trying to seduce anyone. I'm not trying to pick up anyone. I don't go to lesbian bars to pick up chicks. I am not interested in anyone. Please refer back to this if you're not sure, or if you've heard otherwise. I enjoy being single. Nearly to the point of a fear of intimacy, now. But I'll worry about that later.
5) Arrogance. Saying things like, oh, off the top of my head, "I hate pretentious people" when you're an arrogant bastard really gets to me. In fact, you remind me of a song (concert version.)
You pretend you're high
Pretend you're bored
Pretend you're anything
Just to be adored
And what you need
Is what you get
Don't believe in fear
Don't believe in faith
Don't believe in anything
That you can't waste
You stupid boy
You stupid boy
All you had, you wasted
All you had, you wasted...
What drives you on (drives you on)
Can drive you mad (drive you mad)
A million lies to sell yourself
Is all you ever had
Don't believe in love
Don't believe in hate
Don't believe in anything
That you can't waste
You stupid boy
You stupid boy
Can't believe you fake it
Can't believe you fake it
Don't believe in fear
Don't believe in pain
Don't believe in anyone
That you can't tame
You stupid boy
You stupid boy
All you had, you wasted
All you had, you wasted
You stupid boy
You stupid boy
Can't believe you fake it
Can't believe you fake it
You stupid boy
You stupid boy
Can't believe you fake it
Can't beluieve you fake it
You stupid boy.
