There are two particular things that have been annoying the hell out of me lately because it’s been happening a lot.

One is when someone constantly opens (or tries to) the door without even knocking no matter how many times you tell him or her to knock first.

My family is the worst, especially my mom, she’s nuts, love her, but she’s pretty nuts. I’ll have my bedroom door locked and I hear her trying to turn the knob, and when it doesn’t open, she keeps on turning it ten more times like it’s eventually going to open by itself, but she’ll never knock or say, “Hey can I come in?” She refuses to be polite so she keeps on turning it until someone on the other side notices it.

I don’t know, I just get anal about it, because no one ever knocks nowadays. You know, some doors don’t even have locks or they’re broken. Recently, I went into a public single restroom and the lock wasn’t working. As I was doing my business, I felt a little nervous that some annoying asshole might catch me wiping my ass.

It didn’t happen because someone actually knocked five seconds later, as to which I replied, “Uh…yeeeeeAH!”

What do you say when someone knocks at the restroom door anyway? It rarely happens to me. Anyway, I was thankful and I already knew the guy was likeable because he knows how to knock. Bless his little heart.

So here’s the other one. I hate it when people ask me how much I get paid whenever I get an acting gig.

I don’t mind if people do, but there are some assholes out there who are constantly asking me the same question, and it’s the only question (besides asking me if I landed any jobs). They don’t care about what my role is and what the story line is, and anything else that actually has to do with whatever project I’m involved in. They’re just (desperately) curious as to how much I’m making.

Seriously, that’s rude. The next person that asks gets a turd thrown at their face.

So I’m lurking through this forum, right? And I find a thread that’s full of women talking ’bout how much they dislike Angelina Jolie and it brought back a few recent memories of negative comments I’ve heard about her from other women. While I may not have much interest on celebrities or celebrity news anymore, I have to back up Angie once and for all and ask…how can anyone NOT like Angelina Jolie? No really. What drugs are you on to criticize such a talented and an exceptionally giving person?

Angelina Jolie is one of the few actors that I have great respect for off the screen, and for anyone to say that they don’t like her or find her annoying needs to get socked in the throat.

Everyone is entitled to his or her opinions, and I’m entitled to mine, so I’m here to prove how bad their opinions blow, by giving my response to the only reasons why they don’t like her (their reasons are always the same!)

In no special order:

1. She called her baby a “blob”: Because they are blobs. Hasn’t anyone ever seen a baby before? I adore children and I’m around them 24/7. I’ve taken great care of my two nephews and one niece ever since they came out of the womb, and I’m pretty sure I’ve had enough observation to declare that babies, under the age of six months, truly are blob-like. They’re chubby and since they don’t know how to crawl or walk yet, they’re totally immobile so they just sit there all the time unless someone moves them…aren’t actual blobs also chubby and sit there all the time unless someone moves them? Just because Angelina called her kid a “blob”, doesn’t mean she’s going to treat her like one.

2. She’s a skank: WAS a skank, that’s if she ever was one, but she’s settled and has a nice huge family now. I’m pretty sure she has stopped making out with her brother and stopped banging old guys in the back of the limo, so can’t we all just move on from the past?

3. She stole Brad Pitt from Jennifer Anniston: So I take it that Angelina sneaked into their bedroom one silent night, tied the vulnerable and defenseless Brad Pitt and then took him to a third world country while Jennifer was sleeping, right? WRONG. Angelina didn’t “steal him” from her! He had every power and control to make a decision whether he wanted to stay with Jennifer or not, so don’t point the only finger at Angelina. It takes two to tango, morons.

4. She’s annoying and there’s too much publicity on her: I’m sure she hates the attention and would want more than anything than to have absolute privacy with her and her family, but unfortunately, the media is entirely focused on her because she’s THAT intriguing and THAT great of a person. Plus how can she be annoying when she’s donating millions and millions of dollars to programs that help poverty-stricken countries, adopting more children than we can count, and visiting refugees in camps in places such as Pakistan and Darfur? While Jennifer is doing nothing but getting coffee, starring in bad movies, and dating guys like Vince Vaughn and John Mayor, Angelina is saving the world.

5. She’s only doing humanitarian work just to make herself look good: Well at least she’s doing something unlike you so shut your face.

You really can’t put her into a lower position, because she’s that amazing. If someone wants to bash on Angelina Jolie, they’d have die to first and then get canonized as a saint in order to do such a thing, a foolish one at that.
