Pet peeve

I hate crossword clues involving or appertaining to vegetation. I hate with a burning passion crossword clues that involve or appertain to stupid Tennysonian synonyms for vegetation.

So with you on the first.

Can't imagine what the second actually is, but somehow I know that I'm with you on that too.

Be grateful not to be well-acquainted with me and my circle in RL; you'd have been so swamped with concatenated puns that a little thing like that wouldn't make the slightest impact!

I find it surprising that the categories of crossword clues mentioned are common enough to warrant hatred.

Your hatred is more erudite than that of most others I know. This is a compliment.

I'd have thought a hatred of crossword clues - that is, all crossword clues - would be sufficient.
