Subject: Things that just tick you off...

Well it's Spring Break, so yesterday some bored kids decided to start a fire in a county park that burned 100 acres. There were numerous MTB & running trails in the woods that were charred. I OW swim in one of the pond/lakes in the park, couldn't today. Here the story and some pix:

I agree, especially if it's just a crew marking their turf, I'm definitely not a fan. It can really change the atmosphere of a neighboorhood quickly.

I actually had a friend whose father installed a wall in their backyard to keep him from sneaking out in the nights to paint all over Seattle. It was fun to go and check out the new murals that he would do.

PEOPLE STEALING MY FREAKING FOOD!!!

OK, I understand that its communal living and what have you, but you DONT eat someone else's food! My flatmates make fun of me because I label my food in an attempt to not get it confused with theirs (germs and what have you) butI don't get to go home every weekend to do my laundry and have my parents buy me food...no, I have to pay for it MYSELF. So when someone uses an entire stick of my butter and the puts the EMPTY WRAPPER in my cupboard, I'm a little pissed off. When someone uses the last 2 eggs I had saved for an omlette because they "thought they were someone elses"...no! That's not OK. You ASK first. Sometimes I'll say yes, sometimes I'll say no. But I'll never ever go into someone's cupboard and take food. You just don't do it.

BEING INCONSIDERATE OF OTHERS!

Being drunk is not an excuse to keep the entire dorm awake. Some of us actually have to go to class (novel concept, huh?) and need to be awake before 3:30 in the afternoon (not kidding). It is really inconsiderate to blast your music in the common room (right next to my friend's bedroom), and then let your drunken friends TRASH the place, only for those of us getting up at a reasonable hour to have to clean before we leave so that we don't get fined. Seriously, everyone said, "oh the fine isn't so bad." WHAT?! Maybe because your PARENTS are paying it, but that 25 quid is 50 US dollars to me, for something that I didn't fecking do! And I am NOT washing the sink full of dishes that is out there. I will leave them there the entire spring break (starting friday), but I will not clean them. Full. Stop.

Students who cross the street wherever they are instead of walking to a proper crosswalk. Oh, yeah, and while on the cell phone or with earphones in.  It can take me 10 minutes to go 2 blocks some days.

Since we're venting.....

People who drive luxury SUV's, that insist on the idea that they own the road. I know you saw my car, lady! I was in front of you! Why is it oh so important that you be in my lane? And why does it have to be right this second? Apparently, some people feel that driving a Mercedes M-Class gives them the ability to mutate the laws of physics!

Also, the road crews in PA. Is it REALLY that difficult to get out there and patch the potholes? The one last night nearly took my wheel off. And this isn't some back country road. This is a major road (Lancaster Ave outside Philly), through a nicer area. Jesus jumpin lind-dancin Christmas!

Sorry, long morning......

+ inhumane treatment of children, the elderly, and animals

+ depletion of the forests

+ littering

+ people who let their cars 'warm up', idling for 30 minutes on a 40+ degree day when there isn't enough oil for cars to begin with (just ride a bike, you'll stay plenty warm!)

+ people who take cuts in line

+ people who don't tip, ever

+ said above - SUV drivers who cut people off

+ people who smoke with their kids in the car

-Closet Bulldog fans.

-Real Bulldog fans.

-Texas/Texas A&M fans (I still can't tell the difference).

I could go on and on, but it's too early to insult everybody just yet.

- People who, in an attempt to break the awkward silence in an elevator, comment on the awkward silence, and then repeat that old joke about "isn't it awkward to be in an elevator with people? You never know where to look or what to say hahahahha" first thing in the morning before you've had any coffee whatsoever

- Reaching for your phone and knocking over a full cup of coffee of which you have had not a single sip and knocking the entire cup and its contents into your lap

- Pantyhose. Just in general.

- People who think they are too good for their turn signals.

- The fact that the only song on the radio this morning as I was driving in -- like, literally, the ONLY song -- was "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go"

It's been a little bit of a morning, y'all.

I prefer people who, if they are in an elevator with just one other person, say "ya know, if two people are on an elevator and one of them farts, everyone knows who did it."

Ooo...that's like that joke, where the two guys are riding the elevator, one farts, and when they get to the floor, people get on, and right before the doors close, the guy steps out, turns around, and says, "You coarse, common bastard."

LMAO!!! I amuse myself. Which is marginally better than not amusing anyone at all.

People that think eveything thing they do/have/say is the best, most interesting.  (Sorry just had an annoying co-worker in my cube telling me how great and perfect her junky car is).

People that get puppys, don't train them then get rid of them because they misbehave.

People that smoke with their windows open blowing smoke into my vehicle.

People that wait until the last minute to cut into a line of traffic....excuss me are you that much more important than the rest of us that you can't wait in line like we did!!!!

People that are idiots.

This post is getting me angry.

OMG! The cutting in line.......AAAAAAGGGGGGHHHH!!!!! What did you expect you idiot? You're in the left lane! People turn from there! And then the people that just blindly let them in! You bunch of goobers!!!!! AAAAAAGGGGGGHHHH!!!!!!!!

Oh, and people who take TWO spaces when they park their cars. Especially the ones who own a Porsche or something. It's a tiny car! Park normally, or don't take it to public parking lots, you pretentious, ignorant, selfish a-hole!

I think maybe everyone needs to take a deep breath in. Ok now let it out.....Ahhh

Now don't you feel better?

No?

Then tri a valium, or a beer, or a nap, or go for a run.

Don't worry.....be happy....
