My current gripe is that every single day my friend complains ALL DAY long (I see the repetitive posts on Facebook) about how bored she is, gonna scream from boredom, etc. I'd like to know how someone who is home with a 2 y/o AND 4 y/o can be that bored every single day??? Clearly she does not interact with them and they sit in front of the TV all day (well yeah, cuz she admits she "doesn't wanna color or play a board game" with them).

She seems like she is starved for adult company ... It's rough interacting with children all day long so I can see how she might be stir crazy.

I'm peeved with my banks computer. My debit card would not work at the county tag office. Declined it. Went to the ATM window and it said I had less than $3 in the bank. I freaked out. Then I paid the $1 for a last ten transactions statement. Then from out of nowhere all the money is in there that was supposed to be.. This old ticker doesn't need that kind of scare. I rather liked the movie "What a way to go".

IDIOTS!

<whew!> thanks, that felt good.
Then there's the paranoid parker's. They park at an angle, taking up 4 spaces so nobody can get near their precious car.

Kinda makes you want to accidentally spill your milkshake on it.

People who think bad weather=drive faster.

This winter we've had numerous fatalities, all of which were related to careless driving.

People can be so stupid!

I've seen people walk past the car taking up 2 or 3 spaces and put a scratch down the side with keys. I don't approve of damaging someone's car but since I'm not the parking lot police I keep walking with no comment.

I was just thinking this this morning as I was driving and someone was riding my rear in a 35 zone. Hey, just because you can go that fast doesn't mean you need to.
