Oh, how I love Festivus. It’s perfect for people like me just itching for a reason to complain (not that I need one). So last night, in honor of Festivus, I aired a few grievances on Twitter. You can find other grievances aired by searching the tag #festivus. Did you do a blog post of your Festivus grievances? Please comment below with the link (or check CommentLuv and it will pull your latest post automatically).
Happy Festivus, my friends. Here are my official grievances, in 140 characters or less.
OK, major #festivus grievance. People who insist I use the phone or, worse yet, the fax. Get with the program! @typeamom" target="_blank">

#festivus Grievance: people who have tons of followers, follow you, then drop you to inflate their twitter followers… and fragile egos.

More airing of grievances: I don’t follow people who never @ anyone. Where do you get off thinking you can just talk one way? #festivus

Another grievance to air? When PR people treat bloggers like second-class citizens. Hey, I did print for 15 years. I’m no HACK! #festivus

And while I am airing grievances. Where do the grandparents GET OFF thinking we will automatically wrap all their gifts for kids? #festivus
