If I had superpowers, I would have used them today. When the worker from the water department came to check the meters or whatever, he kept spitting tobacco juice in my yard. I would have had him first choke on the juice, and then spit it all over his shirt.
This is why I don’t think I’ll ever be granted superpowers. :evileye:
I don’t think I got up on the wrong side of bed. In fact, I don’t even know if I was in the bedroom at all. I have been in the absolute worst mood in recent memory all day. I’ve been irritable, snappy, headachy, tired, and generally, as my young neighbor deemed me, unpleasant. There’s no one reason for my irritation, it’s just a combination of work, tv, sleep, personal life (or lack thereof), boredom, etc. Ugh.
Stay well back.
Arrgh, Urrgh, and Hmmph! Every time I’m on the phone with one of my parents, without fail, they get a call waiting beep; which they always take. That is, they take the beep if they don’t flat out cut our conversation first. Just now, I called them and it rang busy, thus signaling that they were either calling out or receiving a call at that very moment. I waited a few minutes to call them back, and whaddya know? They aren’t answering my beep.
I really do not want to hear any more about “Oh, you’re such a hermit,” or “Why don’t you ever want to do anything outside your home.” THIS is why, y’all. 😥 and 😡
Arrgh. I can’t even bother to talk TV or fandom. :frankie:
The headline on MSNBC.com right now is “Search for Victims, Answers”. Answers? What are the questions? The bridge collapsed. There’s your answer. The media is always looking to make more out of something than needs to be, and I’m sick of it.
It reminds me of an interview The Today Show did with someone shortly after Hurricane Rita. They asked the man, “Can you tell us what happened?” My brother and I were listening to the broadcast on the radio on the way to work and we both burst out laughing. We simultaneously said, and you could almost hear the man thinking, “Goddamn hurricane hit, that’s what happened, you dumbass!” Yet the interviewer just had to reach for some drama. Yeah, right.
Here’s a novel approach to responsible journalism: Report the facts and stop trying to make everyone in this country a victim. Thanks.
