witchscauldronThings that are annoying me this morning:
1. People who cast spells poorly, start reaping the consquences, and then want you to send them energy/money/your firstborn. Annoyance is doubled if it's a "love spell", tripled if the person tells us their life story as well, and quadrupled if it's in some form of internet Engrish.
2. People like this: "I am a guardian with hundreds of dragons we fight a lot in the astral I am important there." And they name the "dragons" Icee, Big Red, and other assorted food names. Bonus annoyance points if they start talking about the difference between them by colour, as if it's AD&D.
3. People who believe everything they read. One would ahve thought darwinism would have caught up with them by now.
4. People who believe everything they read, go ask everyone if it's true because they're upset/confused/misunderstood, and then proceed to teach the same group of people a course on the fundamentals of Wicca.
5. People who call the CORNERS of a circle. Bonus annoyance for them if they tell me they're allowed to call them corners and not quarters if they like, because it feels right. >_<
6. Being out of candles and incense. Grr.
7. "I know who my patron Goddess is but I haven't met them yet." Annoyed on two levels: The word is "matron" when applied to a female, and how the hell does that work??
[Edit]:
8. Goddess Art that has all the goddesses looking like f-ing Barbie Dolls with wings and glitter. Jessica Galbreth, Jonathan Whats-his-Name. And people who say that "I saw the painting by and that's exactly the goddess I've been channelling/dreaming about/meditating with". None of my gods look like paintings or perfect people...fat, lopsided breasts, wonky teeth, scars - you name it. Our society is completely poisoned with the beauty myths the media perpetrates if we transform goddesses into dolls. Ugh. Real gods for real people I guess.
9. "Native American Spirit Guides". I bet they all look like they walked off a romance novel's cover, too. I wonder if there's as many of these guides as there are Wiccan grandmothers. :p
[/edit]
Argh. I'm sure there's more, but I'll stop here. I really need my back to stop f-ing hurting and let me get a decent night's sleep.
