Hello my beautiful potatos!

Long time no talk.

Did ya miss me?

I missed you.

Whenever I read story's, a lot of things make me either cringe, or make me mad.

SO WHY DONT I RANT ABOUT IT??!!

Here a just a few things that make me cringe/make me mad.

1.) Whenever the author chooses what I look like: It makes me so mad whenever the author is like; "So, I don't care if you don't have a tattoo or green eyes or red hair. Sucks for you!" I've literally read someone say that.

2.) WHEN THE AUTHOR CHOOSES YOUR NAME.

Hear me out....it does not make it an 'X Reader' IF THEY CHOOSE YOUR NAME, SO PLEASE, LET ME CHOOSE WHAT I WANT TO BE CALLED.

3.) 'Awkward Silence' Or 'Comfortable Silence'

It really annoys me when I'm reading something and it says 'We just sat there, letting the comfortable silence consume us.' Or 'We sat there in the awkward silence' If you are going to do something like that, then please say: 'We sat there, letting the moment take over.' Tell me that doesn't sound better than 'comfortable silence'  or 'needless to say; it was an uncomfortable 30 seconds.' Does that not sound better than 'awkward silence'?

4.) The typical 'OMG DID I JUAT SAY THAT?!?!?!?!?!111?!' Or 'O.M.G I DID NOT JUST SAY THAT OUT LOUD!!! 1111!'

*Takes deep breath* OOPSIE DOOPSIE THATS SOOOOO EMBARRASSING!  LIL OL ME JUST SAID THAT INFRONT OF THE BOY I  LIKE! STOP TRYING TO BE CUTE. WE GET IT, THANK YOU.

5.) When authors use things like: *starts to sob* Or *rolls eyes*

I get it, sometimes it's hard to make things descriptive. But DO NOT use things like that. I remember going over an old chapter of mine, and I saw that. And I can not explain to you how much I cringed.

Well! That was a lot of rambling, I hope you enjoyed it!

Let me know if you like these rant things...or whatever they're called. And I'll make more!

(IRL people call me Ollie because my name is to hard to say. Sooo I'm gonna use an 'O' instead of an 'A' My name is spelled with an 'A' if you didn't know)
