Pissing me off 101

Date:  06/02/2004

There are days whenI wish it was legal to go around killing people. Not randomly of course, they would have had to have done something to deserve it of course (I'm not that evil after all!). Now here is the list of punishable offences:

Clothing
* Hipsters - I think this page at the ass matrix (NSFW) shows it best. For you that can't be bothered to click on it, basically if you are spilling out of them, please don't wear them!
* Underwear - Please make sure I can't see it! I don't care if you think it is sexy, I think its just tacky and you are asking for a wedgie! This goes double for the home boys who think it is cool to have their boxers higher than their pant - its not dickhead!
* Short tops - if you have ripped abs then feel free to wear them, otherwise please cover your guts. I don't walk around with my guts out, please do the same!

Pedestrians
* Keep left - it works for our cars so lets try the same thing on the footpath! I hate having to zig zag all along the footpath to avoid people as they feel they have the right to walk wherever they want (especially the grannies - hello I'm twice your size, you are going to hurt if you run into me!)
* Don't take the whole path - I don't care if you are in a group, have some courtesy and allow others to use the footpath too. I have resorted to the Semi Charmed Life style of just walking through these people.
* Don't decide stop or have a chat in the smallest part of the path - for gods sake, think about where you are. If there isn't much room around you then move to the end of the obstacle and stop or talk there. Again I have taken to just walking into or brushing these people.
* People crossing roads - if it isn't a pedestrian crossing then don't expect me to stop for you if I have right of way. You are soft and squishy, I'm in a plastic/metal shell. Which do you think will get hurt more??

Car Drivers
* Parking illegally - don't be such a slack arse, drive a bit further and find another spot. Its not too hard and then you don't end up stuffing up other by blocking them in (like an idiot here did to us on the weekend)
* Double parking - don't do it! This would be the only time that parking illegally is advised and only if you aren't blocking others getting out and you are going to be quick. This is because I'm sick of having to dodge asshat when there is only two lanes and cars coming the other way.
* Cutting me off - if you weren't in the right lane then don't expect me to feel sorry for you. And if you put your hand out to signal then you have not a hope in hell of me letting you in!! You have indicators for a reason.

Others
* People who stuff up a good thing - I recently got an xBox and have been playing some NBA Jam 2004 (hence no updates tongue). Well I love the original NBA Jam, its a great game to just stuff around with and have fun on but Acclaim have just gone and stuffed the new version right up! I don't want hot spots. I want to be able to change the control to other than just three preset choices. I just want to have a fun game where I can hit people!
* Spelling - Now I don't claim to be the best speller (actually I would be happy to be in the top 50% tongue) but recently I saw a sign advertising "mobil phones" (I assume they are the gass powered ones!). I find it hard to believe that someone could make a mistake like that on a sign when they are 4 doors down from a Optus world shop.

I think is should become law that if you are in violation of any of these offences then I can take action (and not just have to think it)

Anyways, back to reality.

It turns out that I'm a lefty. I never really knew which side of the political spectrum I fell on but recently I have been able to work it out (thanks Fark.com). You can find out who you should be voting for in the up-coming US elections at presidentmatch or selectsmart.

Oh and a great quote I read off Slashdot "I loathe people who keep dogs. They are cowards who haven't got the guts to bite people themselves." -- August Strindberg

And one last britney link for you smile
