Yes, it’s true; Colorado is darn near perfect! However, despite all of this perfection, there are still a few things we’ve grown to hate, including:

  1. When idiot drivers refuse to accelerate in the merge lane.

Flickr/Anne Petersen THE LANE ISN’T THERE FOR DECOR, PEOPLE!

  1. I-25 in general.

Flickr/Michael Fajardo My husband and I have decided that we’re the only two people in the world who know how to drive on this stupid interstate. (Just nod your head and humor me!)

  1. Inadequate beer choices at a restaurant.

  1. The Raiders

Flickr/Chris Yunker UGH THESE GUYS ARE THE ABSOLUTE WORST!!!

  1. Transplants

  1. The insane cost of living

Flickr/Pictures of Money I may be wrong, but I have yet to meet somebody who actually enjoys paying some of the highest rent and mortgage prices in the country.

  1. Unpredictable weather

Colorado 4x4 Colorado: Keeping us on our toes since 1876.

  1. When Mike Nelson lies to you during his 7-day forecast.

Flickr/Paul Swansen It’s ALL a big conspiracy…

  1. Cats

Flickr/Jimmy B Because a dog doesn’t try to kill you in your sleep!

  1. Weed jokes

Flickr/Don Hankins As utterly hilarious as cannabis jokes are, you can keep them to yourself.

  1. Dry climate

Flickr/eBomb716 I think most of us have a love/hate relationship with the Colorado climate… on the one hand, we don’t have to battle the miserable humidity; but on the other hand, we have to deal with dry, cracking skin every. single. winter.

  1. Opposing political views

Flickr/Chris Coleman In Colorado, we feel strongly one way or another about politics… so if you lean more to the left, steer clear of Colorado Springs; if you lean more to the right, don’t visit Boulder.

What do you hate most?
