How Many Things on Earth Are More Annoying Than the Vuvuzela Horn?

The 2010 World Cup is in South Africa. Good for them! Unfortunately, the annoying horn sound I herd while watching the Confederations Cup is also in Africa. It's called the Vuvuzela horn. I believe it means "Hornets humping my eardrums." Don't quote my on that though.

After watching a few games while those horns were buzzing in the background, I began to wonder if they were the most annoying thing I have ever known in this big beautiful world. After three whole days of trying to come up with an answer to the most important question I may ever come up with in my entire life, I managed to think of a whopping 2 things in total that barely surpass the rage inducing existence of those accursed horns..

#1.) Kids at the movie theater.
There is absolutely no excuse for this. If you have a tendency to reproduce, and need someone to bum your offspring off on for 90 minutes, then do what an intelligent person would do and leave them with a family member. It doesn't even have to be a blood relative. You could dump the screaming brat on your best friend who has been like a brother to you for 10+ years.

One would think that in such a crappy economy, it would be easy to find someone willing to deal with the annoyance of your crying sequel, for a generous fee. Fun a few background checks if the urge overcomes you, and then prepare to unload a couple of hundred bucks when you get back from the movie. It's just that simply. Unless you are a shut in who hates human interaction more than you hate natural sunlight, than finding a patsy to take care of your seed shouldn't be that much of a problem.

It's not that kids in general are annoying, just the ones who interrupt movies not featuring singing crustations, talking cars, and the sad final moments of Eddy Murphy's once illustrious comedic career, with their incessant crying. Life's tough okay. There are a lot of things I would like to cry about at times(misplacing my lucky rabbits foot, hitting a squirrel with my car last week, learning that squirrels feet aren't lucky, etc.) Sometimes, you just just have to suck it up and move on with your life. Wanna go to the theaters? Grow up and be a man about it!

#2.) People who use double negatives, and don't know why it's a problem.
Alright, I ain't got no time for people who don't know anything about no proper English. If it's your first language, and you are over the age 12 years old, there's no excuse for you not to have no firm grasp on said language.

it's hard to participate in small talk with another human being, when your mind is racing trying to translate the riddles of their verbal speech into something I could fully understand. "ain't gonna take nothing from nobody." Does this mean you will continue to be a pawn in the game of life? Or, do you mean that you are sick of being taken advantage of, but don't yet know what course of action to take as of right now?

As a southerner who grew up with people with no regard for proper pronunciation of even the simplest of words, this crap confuses the mess out of me. What really grinds my gears is the apparent obliviousness that the speaker has after completing such a mangled sentence. You can't correct these people. Anything you say regarding their statement will be met with a "That's what I just said", or the classically innumerate "you know what I meant."

In summery, the Vuvuzela horn has ruined this years World Cup tournament. That's pretty sad because it's such a great event. I'd still rather hear that horrid instrument over the sound of crying children in movie theaters, and people who ain't never gonna go no where with their limited linguistic ability.
