Rant No. 16 - I. Hate. Glitter.

I have a glitter issue. I. HATE. GLITTER. I can't help it, it annoys the living daylights out of me. It is everywhere and I mean everywhere. Especially this time of year. It is on everything and I mean everything. I can hardly go down the holiday decor aisles because there is glitter everywhere and much like some cacti that I don't particularly like it jumps out and gets me. And we all know once the glitter gets you, there is no getting rid of it anytime soon. I tolerated glitter when my kids were young and bringing home crafts from school. I do in fact still have some of those crafts and I cringe everytime I have to go near them. I am thankful that I had boys and not girls, because the glitter thing doesn't seem to ever go away with girls. Not EVER.
Look at this poor guy, he is all dazzled out in glitter. A glitter turkey? ReaLLy?? SerioUsLy?? Not necessary. 

Slapping glitter on everything does not make it better or prettier, or more desirable. I run the other way when I see glitter on things. That brings me to my new dilemma when I check out at say Target or wherever, there is glitter all over the conveyor from prior customers and I get the weird look when I start cleaning before placing my items on the checkout stand. What is with that? Really? Am I suppose to have glitter all over my stuff because the rest of the world is in some glitter trap? I think not, because, I. HATE. GLITTER. (end of rant)
