I misread this as sweat and was confused by Ni's answer of "have to be careful around the patients"- if you sweat?
32. Biggest pet peeve?
Oh fucking HUNDREDS. I hate pretty much everyone who drives on the our great American interstate system along with all routes, highways, rural access roads and city streets. I hate cell phone usage in public places and that includes work when they leave their ringer ON. It was only clever ONCE when, years before everyone had a signiture ring when this guy was in the bookstore and had the creepy piano theme from Halloween and that? Was the boss. I hate girls, especially southern girls, at Forever 21 shouting across the dressing rooms "Oh that is cute!" Any usage of cute by stupid people is banded. Ugh, and they don't say it "cute" in a snappy fashion, but rather kew-ute. Most anyone under the age of 18 is wretched, even the good ones that grow up cool.
33. In one word, how would you describe yourself? Yeah.
34. In one word, how would you describe me? Loveable.
