Things I Just Don’t Get

1. Stilettos. I guess they’re supposed to be sexy, but I find it impossible to feel hot when my feet are in a vice grip.

2. Football. I’ve tried, really I have, but all I understand about the game is that one team scores when the football reaches the end zone.

3. Tricked-out cars. If that fart box, spoiler, and those ground effects are some expensive attempt to lure the opposite sex, sorry, dude, but they didn’t work on me. I only noticed them after my husband did.

4. The popularity of Starbucks. There is much better coffee to be had. And yes, I’m a snob.

5. Sloppy joes. Their appeal completely escapes me. I love a good burger, though.

6. Facebook friend requests from people who openly despised me in high school. After I finish scratching my head, I usually say yes, though. Why hold a grudge?

7. Elmo and Barney. Maybe if they’d been around when I was four, it would all make more sense.

8. Young, beautiful women dating old, crusty men. I’ve been seeing these couples everywhere lately, and I don’t care how much money those dudes have or how amazing their personalities are. Yuck.

9. Def Leppard. Worst. Band. Ever.

10. Casinos. I’ve only been in a few, and they depressed the heck out of me. I just wanted to shout, “The house always wins, fools! Go home and save those nickels for your grandkids’ college tuition!”
