In
years past, Oprah's audience awaited her
dramatic reveal of her "favorite things" giveaway. To her credit- she is certainly rich enough to
know the good stuff from the B-list bourgeois seconds I grab at Wal-Mart. But, since I have nothing to give away but three-trees worth of
my kid's artwork, I decided to instead share my trending least favorite things -
from the trivial to the trite (and everything in between).
These are a few of my least favorite things. . .
1. Those
horrid hot pants. How did they come back so fast? MC Hammer could still rock
them but my baby-birthing hips can't handle that hotness anymore. Too soon,
fashion friends. Too soon.
2. The
abuse of leggings. They are not pants, ladies. Not. Pants. Know their place.
3. Jeb Bush running for President. Spoiler Alert. He will lose. And I cannot survive another GOP defeat without developing a serious narcotics dependency. #WalkerRubio2016
4. Twitter.
And the narcissism it (often) fuels. There I said it. Tweet that.
5. Lady
Mary Crawley and her moral indiscretion. Downton shall abide no hoes!
(I believe that is direct quote from season 5).
6. The obsession with Jen Hatmaker by too many female evangelicals under 45. I am sure she is lovely, but seriously. Come on, friends. She is no Dietrich Bonhoeffer (#mancrushtheologian)
7. The
anti-vaccine hysteria. It's one thing to be all "organic, grass-fed, Bradley
method" but it is a whole other polio match to refuse immunizations. Opposing vaccinations is the luxury of only a first
world, developed nation.
8. The
scarves blitzkrieg. The neck-brace of fashion has America in a choke hold (do
you like how I did that?). I love
scarves - but in moderation. The religion of peace loves them too. *wink*
9. ISIS. We just need to "Chris Kyle" this
situation. Stat. ISIS should already be
a classified footnote in our foreign policy manual under "handled."
Really, it is an obamanation.
And
finally, *drum roll* my least favorite thing. . .
10. My
clingy kids. Just kidding. They are my favorite thing. And today, everyone
goes home with one of them!! *cue loud cheers and applause*

11. Snow

14. Snow
15. Mothers exclaiming with glee when there is a snow day or delay or early dismissal because they can't wait to play in the snow and make cookies with their "kiddos". (This just happened to me yesterday.)
16. The use of words such as: Kiddos, hubs, hubby, wifey, fab, totes, adorbs, deets...
