things I will never understand...

For starters...

The world's obsession with foam soap.

I mean, who comes up with this stuff?! Are we really so lazy that lathering our own soap takes too much work?

I can just feel the germs mass multipling on my hands after I use the nasty stuff.

Can you say gross?

Another thing that baffles me is...

Why people wear these "pants" by choice.

And I'm using the word pants very relatively... As if you could really call these things that. They are more like tights.

I mean, it's bad enough to see the top of girls' ass cracks when they bend down in their ridiculously low jeans. But now this?!

Are girls really not concerned that they are flaunting their ENTIRE crack to the world?!

Gag me.

This next one really makes my head spin...

People who feed an entire cake to their children on their birthday when they turn 1.

I mean, just six short months ago the poor kid was barely introduced to "solid" foods. Now you are encouraging him to pig out on a dozen adult sized helpings of sugar on steroids?

No wonder more and more American children are becoming, obese!

Another thing that has me shaking my head is...

Shorts that are so short the front pockets hang out like so:

When I first saw this horrible fashion trend, I thought the poor girl was using some old jeans to make cutoffs and just didn't realize that by cutting them so short she was being tacky.

Boy was I wrong!

Turns out that letting your pockets hang low is not only socially acceptable, it's encouraged.

And of course this post wouldn't be complete without....

People who stop three car lengths behind the person in front of them at a stoplight.

I mean, really people???

This one never ceases to baffle me.

Is our depth perception really THAT off, or are we just too busy texting while driving to notice that a huge diesel could sneak in front of us?

Hmm... am I the only one who missed the boat, here?

Hair today, gone tomorrow.

Lately I've decided that I want to chop my hair off.

I'm sick of seeing myself look the exact same way in every picture:

It's not flattering.

But because I'm not willing to sacrifice three hours a day for the sake of beauty, I'm not able to look this good all the time:

And let's not forget how obnoxious it is to keep clogging our drains with all my hair that has decided to fall out post-baby.

Ew.

Hair freaks me out, so having it all over the bathroom/house is completely revolting.

Not to mention the fact that Miles LOVES my hair. If it doesn't all fall out by itself, he has made it his personal mission to pull it all out which is exponentially more painful.

So what else is a girl to do?

I wish I could march right into the salon and walk away looking like this:

 or this:

 but instead I would come out looking like this:

and that is a sight that no one should ever be subjected to.
