I have a new story, but you probably knew this by now. I'm not sure what else to say so onto the story!

Damian P.O.V.

Unsurprisingly, there are many things that annoy me. Here I will present you with a list of them. With the exception of Grayson, it doesn't matter who does the deed. It will still annoy me.

Pet peeve number 1: when someone explains something perfectly clear, then explains the exact same thing again immediately after they just explained the concept. And to make it worse, the second explanation is more confusing than the first one. I just can't understand what is going through someone's mind when they do something like that.

Example #1

The first example is at school. Shocking, I know, but alas it is true. This time it was my teacher that did the deed. No, not that deed, but Grayson won't tell me what that means so I'm just going to use the phrase whenever I want so that I can mess with him. I also don't understand why Grayson insists that I respect the teacher. I mean, this entire example is about how incompetent the teacher is. I'll set the scene. We were in math class, and today the concept that the teacher was trying to explain was multiplication.

"Today we are going to talk about multiplication. Multiplication is how many times you have to add a number to itself. In other words, if you multiply five by a number, and the number is how many hands you have in total, then you will be able to see how many fingers you have in total. So for instance, five times three is fifteen."

Of course, I had to reply by saying, "That is ridiculous. No one has three hands." Of course, I knew that wasn't what the teacher meant, but it felt like a Grayson thing to say. Now if you would excuse me, Grayson is calling for me. Something to do with getting a call from that dreaded school.

Example #2

This example is also at school. But this time it wasn't the teacher, but rather one of those know-nothing-snobs of a student, that did the deed. I actually kind of hope that Grayson finds this just so that he can freak out. I also don't know why Grayson also insists that I respect the other students. They are all buffoons except for Collin, but that is a story for another day. But anyways, this student was talking about some gossip or another. I don't really know, nor do I care. The point is that she was uselessly trying to explain to me the reasons for some breakup that I don't care about. Why do people think that I would waste my time caring about other people's social situation? So, she was telling me the reason for the breakup. Not her breakup but someone else's breakup. Why does she care about the break up anyway? But I degrees. Apparently, the couple stopped being a couple because the relationship was abusive. You see? This is the proper way to explain the situation. If only I had the pleasure of such a simple explanation; but alas, I had to sit this random girl that I don't know explain to me multiple times why a couple, that I don't know nor care about, broke up.

"So, Sara and John broke up."

"I don't care."

"There was, like, so much drama that you wouldn't believe it."

Did you not hear me just tell you that I don't care?" Apparently not.

"Their relationship was like a yak hitting on a sheep."

I gave her a look of pure bafflement.

She replied, "What? That is what, like, all of the sayings are like in HTTYD."

She even said it as if made total sense for her to talk that way. I don't think that I really have to tell you who said what.

Example #3

So far, all of the examples have been at that awful place that we like to call: school. This example; however, takes place in a conference room in Wayne Tower. I was in one of the board meetings because it was during a school break and Grayson was busy, so Father had to bring me to said board meeting. I could have spent the day with Drake, but you know. I don't think that having the two of us in a room alone together would that great of an idea. There are just so many things that could go wrong. I'm getting sidetracked. So, at the meeting there was this guy from Wayne Electric, which is a subsidiary of Wayne Industries, trying to get the board of Wayne Enterprises to reinvest in coal power plants. Do you even know how terrible coal is for the environment? Not to mention the fact that that much CO2 can kill people because of suffocation. There is a reason why we stopped building those power plants. The person, let's call him Fred because I didn't care enough to remember his name, was trying to tell the board why the downsides and risks of coal are irrelevant. I just want to make sure that we are clear, unnecessary death is never irrelevant. Grayson did not have to tell me that. Fred's unfound argument for coal went something like this.

"Who cares if it will hurt the environment? Coal can produce so much electricity for humans."

"The emissions from the coal can kill those humans."

"The coal will provide electricity for many people while only killing a few of those people."

"It is still useless killing, and that is inexcusable."

"We should be working for the benefit of the majority, not the minority."

"What?"

I think that Father should have fired that man right then and there, but Father said that he had to stick to a process. Father said that Wayne Enterprises has a three strikes rule. I don't understand why I have to find that much dirt on Fred before he can get fired after he said something like that. Now if you would excuse me, I have to go look into Fred's past. Hopefully, I will find enough against him.
