NEWS UPDATE!!!
This little list of mine has received its first piece of badly spelled hate mail!! Of course, those of you who've read Name That Religion know that I've already received some lovely religious-fanatic-type hate-mail, but this is a first for this particular page. And of course, if you have read my disorganized religion page, you know that I just have to share this stuff with all of you. So, without further ado, here is my Badly Spelled Hate Mail:

"Just out of pure curiosity, why is your name 'Rin the amazing' chuckle chuckle, not included in the '101 types of annoying people?!?!?!. I base that statement on the fact that you must be one of the most annoying people to ever walk this earth..........but I find it amusing that you find others annoying.....down to people with size 5 feet, who can not help that their genetic make up condemed them to small feet (by the way I'm a size nine). You said that one of the things that annoys you were people who tried to analyse your emotional intellegence...or lack of it........but its easy to...........your just one of these meckeovalians (by the way it means arrogant prats) who will not step outside the square that she lives in (I assume your a woman), smell the roses and accept others peoples differences even if they annoy you. Do us all a favour NEVER make a list of 105 annoying people or anything again..........its a waste of web space.........by the way forget size 5 shoes or fashion designers being annoying, it is worth a chuckle or two to know that there is one person (lets hope there is only one) that actually lives such a boring life that she has to sit in front of the computer, squared eyed, making a list of 105 most annoying people, chuckles chuckles.... humorous stuff........... ."
