It was pointed out to me by Michele many times while traveling that, according to her, I complain a lot. I kept telling her that its not complaining, its what I like to call 'Ranting'. I find something that bothers me, go on a 3 minute speil about why it sucks, and that's it. Ok, sometimes the rant continued on for a little bit, or she heard about it a couple of times, but most of the time (MOST! Not all) it was warranted!
Anyways, I realized that I do do this a lot...and i like doing it. If something in society is pissing me off, I will let off a little steam.
The moral about this is that I think I am going to blog about this...Weekly. I am paying attention to it all week, and when it happens, I am making a note of it on my Phone, and every Tuesday, I will compile a list of the things that pissed me off from the previous 7 days. Maybe I will just give my top 5 of something. Lets see how this goes:
#5 - Douchbags that keep their house keys on a lanyard, and swing them around all the time. Really, can you not just put the 3 random keys on a key chain that fits nicely in your pocket like the rest of the mass population? You have to be swinging the metal chunks around while i talk to you? Douchbags!
#4 - Penguin Fans. Their team is shit for a decade, go bankrupt, almost relocate, sandbag it to get players like Fluery, Malkin, and Crosby, and now you go tooting your horn like your team has never been in peril. I almost hope you lose the cup just because you deserve the pain of ALMOST getting there again.
#3 - Twitter. How is this craze catching on? Are there really people in this world that care what someone like me is doing with hour to hour updates? Do you really want to know that Ashton Kutcher is paying his phone bill, or Shaq is chilling with his kids? Good lord, the narcissism of some people has gone to new depths.
#2 - Procrastination. It is something that I am oh so good at...and it costs me. I keep waiting to pay stuff like parking tickets, and the cost goes up another $20. Simple things all through the day that I say 'Ahh, I will do it later!'. Why do I do this, and how can I stop?
#1 - Robin Soderling. The prick swede has already cost me like $60, and I am sure he'll beat Gonzalez in the Semis, costing me another $40. This bastard is ruining my French Open! Where did he come from, and how the hell is he beating people like Nadal and Davydenko. Die!
So that is this week's 'What pisses me off'. Let me know what you think, and let me know if you have any tips on Procrastination. I really need to stop this.

ReplyDeleteI fully endorse rant #4
ReplyDeleteP.S. Have I mentioned how awful the red background / gray font it? I think I am going twitter about it.
ok, I will work on the colors. I already changed it from black to grey. You want the red to go?
ReplyDeleteAny palate suggestions?
Scarlet & gray, hmmm. . .works for me.
ReplyDeleteGo Buckeyes!
ReplyDeleteI appreciate the irony of #3
ReplyDeleteOkay, I completely agree with #3. WTf? How is Twitter interesting at all? Completely boring. #1 I whole-ly disagree with. Did you SEE the game he beat Nadal???? Amazing. Completely outplayed and overpowered him. I'd love to see how far he can get!
