You must know some strange women. The only women I know that aren’t direct are batshit crazy.

It really pisses me off when I see people with young kids get divorced. Can’t they put their egos aside for a while and be parents? [/quote]
I lived in a home for 2-3 years, whose environment was as you wish it to be. Parents that no longer like or love each other and are just there “for the children” are doing more harm than good. I hated being at my house, I hated them for making me hate my home, the years since they finally divorced were far more peaceful and happy.

It is ‘illegal’ to fill up someone else’s parking meter.
I was stared down by a cop when I was with a friend counting the loose change in my pocket, and looked over to see an expired parking meter. I thought, “Why not help someone out today?”
I saw the cop walking toward us. My friend said he had heard that you can’t refill someone else’s meter. I dropped in a quarter and started walking away.
As I crossed the street, I caught the cop checking out the meter I had just put change in. Probably wanted to see how close he was to scoring another ticket. Motherfucker.
That is fucked up.

That fucking electronic voice on the MBTA that announces the next stop three times, the fact that the doors open on the right and the destination of the trolley. It’s a Greater Boston area thing.

I ran into one of these guys last week. He was wearing an affliction t-shirt. He was smoking in front of the free air machine at the gas station. He was really cool. He gave me a scary “don’t fuck with me” sneer. I laughed. He shouted something at me. I laughed harder. He threw his cigarette down. I stopped and looked at him.
He shouted something else, probably something about “kicking my faggot ass” or some other typical white trash insult. I laughed again, then shouted that I wasn’t in the mood for any hooliganism that morning. He went to get his cigarette. I got in my car and drove away.
True story.
This affliction t-shirt nonsense is really taking off. I see these t-shirts on a lot of white trash frat boy types around here. I thought these shirts were like 50 bucks a pop? I wonder how they are getting the money for them.

Hmmm?? [/quote]
Do you mean just LONGER than it will take to hang them? As long as the rope is long enough to tie the knot and loop the neck and a rafter (or whatever is available), it’ll work.

Girls who will only give HJ’s…HJ’s are not an acceptable form of sexual currency.[/quote]
Didn’t Joe Rogan have a joke about hating it when girls try to give HJ’s? Something like, “What makes you think you can do that better than me? Guys have a whole system when it comes to HJ’s.”
Then I’m making a protein shake and some of the protein spills out of the scoop and onto the counter before I can get it into the funnel and into the mason jar I use as a shaker.
Because then that protein either sits on the counter and my roommates bitch at me, or I gotta wipe that up, which is not so dirty so much as it is signalling wasted protein. That shit costs me five cents/gram. I can’t afford to spill that shit.
