As the new year kicks off I though I'd give you my list of the 10 things I wish would stay in 2010 and not make their way to the new year.
Unfortunately, I don't rule the world so I'm not sure I'll get a vote on these, but if i had it my way, these things would just disappear like Captain Kirk getting beamed up to the Enterprise.
1o. The McRib - I know that some of you will hate me for suggesting this one but you know its' not real meat, right?
9. Political commercials and ads - we are all SICK of them!
8. Dudes wearing skinny jeans - what the heck!
7. People living outside of Michigan ripping on the Metro Detroit area -- umm I know we got our issues, but this is my HOME!!! If you don't stop accusing us of being so violent then we're going to loosen the lug nuts on your car! And kwame wasn't MY mayor, I actually like the changing weather, we finally have a new Governor, and we still make cars for all of you that don't live here!
6. Ryan Seacrest - need I say more...
5. Poor customer service - seems like a virus that's growing more each year, whatever happened to, "the customer is always right". So, get off your cell phone, drop the attitude and act like those of us in the other side of the register matter.
4. TMI (too much information) on facebook -- we don't care what you ate last night or who you don't like anymore. We don't want to see your public arguments, or your pictures that show off way too much skin (excepts for fb browsing pervs, but their opinion doesn't count, because they're pervs)
3. Butt crack showing jeans - for girls or guys, we are all tired of seeing that side of you, trust me.
2. Crippling hurt - we all have some, a hurt that could kill our hearts, our hopes, our dreams & just generally suck the life out of us. The new year has new hope not because it's a new year but because God RULES the days we live in, and the bible tells us that His mercies are new every morning. May we all live with new hope & new energy that is a product of us growing in Christ this year deeper than last.
1. Hate & fear - hey I said it's MY list so i can dream can't I. I know theses won't be left behind in 2010 but they will be left behind when Jesus returns. This is why I'm both hopeful & thankful for the day of His return when peace & love will reign for ever as the ONLY way to live.
