Update 6/11/13: Chapter 13 (14 in chapter list) of "Cry Of The Wolf" has now been improved. I've also roughly rewritten chapter 14, and hopefully made everyone more in-character. Expect chapter 14 to be up soonish.

Dislikes:
The majority of modern music, in particular from the following artisits: Jay Z, Lady Ga Ga, Beyonce, Chiddy Bang, Rhianna, Kesha, Jay Z, RECENT Linkin Park, Panic! At the Disco, Jay Z, rap as a whole, Justin Timberlake, RECENT Greenday, anyone who crawled out of Australian/American Idol... This list could go on and on -_-' What really gets to me is that music isn't about music these days. It just seems to be about pretty people looking like pimps/skanks and singing some shallow, "cool" lyrics over a boring, repetitive, un-authentic, keyboard/synthesizer created beat. Whatever happened to people sounding unique? Whatever happened to musicians playing their own guitars and pianos and drums??? Whatever happened to lyrics that WEREN'T about some lame breakup? If only I had a dollar for every time I head a modern day artist say something along the lines of: "Well, I always wanted to be different so I sing about things that nobody else does". Yes...so THAT'S why there's a MILLION songs drifting around on the radio about being dumped or being "OMG SOOOO ttly hawt 4 sum1 up in dis klub yo!1!!1!!"...
Twilight. Full of contradictions. Poor vocabulary. Lack of common sense when it comes to actions/dialogue. All the characters are shallow, underdeveloped and are generally Mary Sues/Gary Stus. Stephenie Meyer needs to learn to research and plan before trying to write something. Good on her for having a go, but her "mad writing skillz" fail to impress me...
Hollywood portrayal of Vampires. In fact, the whole vampire craze/fad these days. For crying out loud people, get over it. As if a REAL vampire would REALLY fall in love with a human. That's like a person falling in love with and lusting over a cow. Also sick of all the teenage vampire drama that seems to be crawling out of the woodwork these days. Sad thing is that most of them are probably only in it for the easy money...
Homophobes, racism, sexism, stereotypes - which brings us to our next dislike...
HARDCORE CHRISTIANS. You CANNOT follow every "rule" in that book without being a hypocrite. I don't so much mind people of Christian faith, it's only the ones that feel the need to hate disbelievers and try to force their beliefs on others. I don't like the fact that Christianity (which is technically a life-style choice) comes first in society and certain human beings/groups come second.
Modern parents who expect the Government (and the people around them) to warp society, so that they don't have to exert as much effort into raising their children. I also dislike couples who spew out kids without being financially, emotionally or intellectually capable of raising said children. Also, the "Baby Bonus" that the Australian Government is (stupid enough) to have put in place really irks me. Something is really disgusting to me about the fact that people are being PAID to have a child. My mum hurled out four kids, back in the 80's-90's (back when YOU were expected to raise your little darlings). So where's her paycheque?
City folk moving to the country and bringing their "city life" with them, thus turning the country into suburbia.
Drugs and alcohol. If you NEED to get smashed on alcohol to have a good time then you must lead a sad existence.
Obsessive fans who are so obsessed with something to the point of ruining it for everyone else.
The annual Australia Day (probably alcohol fueled) debate on whether we should break free from England and change our flag to something more "Aussie", like a pair of thongs, a bottle of beer, a BBQ or a sweaty, sunburnt arse-crack. Seriously, no joke, it gets brought up every year, lasts for a week or two then you don't hear about it till next Australia day comes. If you're living in Australia but you don't like England, then move to America. It's really not that hard to fathom...is it???
Idiots and ignorant people in general.
The fact that I seem to have far more dislikes than likes...
