1: The Misanthropic.
(Name something you absolutely hate).
Rap--the noise, the clothes, the objectivity of women, the women who enable it, the morons who play it at inhuman decible levels from their stupid cars
2: The Meretricious:
(Expose someone or something that's phony, fraudulent or bogus).
I'm thinking Joel Osteen, pastor and author, although it's not for me to say.
3: The Malcontent:
(Name something you're unhappy with).
The shredded wallpaper on my bathroom walls. Removing it is an ugly job. Also, those pesky 20 pounds--I like wine and chocolate, just a little. Oh, and I don't like exercise.
4: The Meritorious.
(Give someone credit for something and name it if you can).
My friend Carolyn had a vision--to start her own business. And she has built a lovely yarn shop that is a jewel in our town. She's a trooper.
5: The Mirror.
(See something good about yourself and name it).
When I am determined to do something, not much can stop me--like learning to play the horn beyond the typical age of learning an instrument, or like finishing a novel, even if it never makes it beyond a blog.
6: The Make-Believe:
(Name something you wish for).
Currently, I'm obsessed with my novel, so having it published is at the top of the list. I also wish for a permanent seat in the orchestra--2nd would be fine. Oh, and world peace.

Those are great answers. I'm doing Vic's tag from last week, so I'll post on this sometime soon.
Excellent answers.
No.2: Well, if it isn't for you to say, I'll say it (I just looked the guy up): What a jerk-off snake-oil merchant! He'd be laughable if it wasn't for the tragedy of sad people taking his crap seriously.
I'm with you all the way on the rest … especially the twenty pounds of wine and chocolate … Mmmm …
i am so with you on number one of this post!
Come on over to my blog and do one or two of these (my Things UK blog). See you there and good luck with the novel!
I'm adding you (with a link to your Melee post) to The Monday Melee main list of participants, since it's a connecting of the bloggers rather than a meme. Would you mind throwing in a link back to The Monday Melee main page?
It's here:

Many thanks!
