I want to say someone hates someone/something. Can I use 'bet noir'? Are these okay?
1. My bete noire are people who needlessly take the lives of animals for sport and take trophy photos to flaunt their conquest.
2. Jasmine's bete noire is teenagers carrying speakers and blasting rap music in public.
3. Her boss's bete noire is being sloppy and making excuses for it.
4. The temperamental HR manager became the bete noire of the employees, with his unpredictable behaviour and constant badgering of them for taking leave.
5. My bete noire is drivers who dangle their hand out of the car window while they drive.
6. Her bete noire is seeing people queue up at cinemas to watch mindless blockbuster films.
7. Jane's neighbour has become her bete noire as he is very nosy and annoying.
