I hate it when.........

 

People blame television, music, and video games for things their kids do. NEWSFLASH-- These things aren't babysitters

 

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

Did you read that book, I think it's titled "Everything Bad is Good for You"? It basically said that video games and modern cartoons are good educational tools, teaching both fine motor and problem-solving skills.

I heard a report about that on the news. How come nobody sues the govt. when an ex-military person goes wacko and kills, like McVeigh?

You always come up with the most interesting questions. I'm not sure how to answer that one. But....you stump me all the time.

I hate it when I lose still more of what little faith I had left in humanity. I was on the bus today and it stopped to pick up a guy, who for some reason decided to stand out in the road and dig through his wallet for the fare. Then there's a few really confused moments where this white car goes speeding past on the right and the guy disappears from view. We all thought he'd been run over, but as it turns out the driver of the car tried to snatch his wallet. The guy held on, and the driver stood on the gas, dragging the guy for a few feet until finally the wallet tore in half and he fell on his face in the middle of the road. Just a lovely display of human behavior, don't you think?

I hate it when

... you are trying to get a resume out and your motherboard decides it is the perfect time to die.

... you only have the stupid restore CD's from your computer manufacturer

... it seems like Bill Gates is more in charge of my life than I am

... I hear the fireworks at Disneyland and know that at least 2 people are having fun while I curse at the damn thing

... stress is making my back pain worse and the Dr. wants me to go back on low dose antidepressant (way not cool) and lose 10 pounds

... I know the antidepressant will have certain sexual side effects that will make losing the 10 pounds more difficult (amongst other things)

... I get up too late for the headache to be stopped by that first cup of coffee.

... because you are late with the first cup of coffee, the headache will remain all day.

... the caffeine headace is bad enough to break through the pain medication you are taking for your back.

... I suddenly realize (again) that I'll never ride a roller coaster again

... I'm feeling sorry for myself for no good reason

- the power flicks in the middle of the night from a storm and my freaking alarm doesn't go off and I wake up late.

 

- after eight nights of insomnia, I actually break down and take something to help me sleep, and the power flicks in the middle of the night from a storm and the one time I really need it, my freaking alarm doesn't go off.

 

- I finally leave for work (very late) and between the front door and the car I remember its trash day and as usual I'm the only one available to put the trash out.

 

- I get in my car and realize that I really, really need gas to get to work because I was too lazy to stop last night.

 

- I have to deal with the bruise on my forehead from banging it against the steering wheel.

I once got my front end clipped by someone deciding they wanted to be in my lane and not looking to see that I was already there. I was goin' 65 when I started to spin and was probably going 30 when I plowed strait into the sound wall, no airbags. I love my seatbelts. An least I didn't get bruised because I saw it coming and braced myself with my arms against the steering wheel (again, no airbag). My passenger got bruises, but nothing major. It didn't do my back any good . The weird part is the complete silence after the loud 'crunch' sound. The worst part was that the force of the impact was enough to pop the tape into the radio (I had ejected it between songs). After 2 seconds of amazing silence, Blondie's "One Way or Another" starts blasting at 'freeway' volume and I don't have the strenght to lift my body against the seat belt and turn the damn thing off.

 

Three different sets of cars stopped to see if we were ok, nobody got the license , but I'm still here to brighten ( ) your day, so that is all that matters.
