Well damn. Now I feel like a fool. Your approach makes much more sense. As for things that piss me off, I had a thought about politics the other day. Fiscal responsibility is supposed to be one of the most basic principles of the Republican party. They get pissed when they see their tax dollars wasted on welfare programs and the like, and I can understand that to a point. However, liberals get just as pissed when they see their tax dollars being spent on the military. This isn't really about the divide between the left and the right. Rather, it's about what they both have in common. Both parties are corrupt from the top down. Why does anyone bother to get pissy about where government money goes? No average person will ever be able to change any of it. You might as well complain about the sun rising in the east. Politicians will spend your money on whatever the hell they want, not whatever their constituants want. It's not something worth getting upset over. What pisses me off is how people continue to take that sort of thing so personally. I have a co-worker here who loves to gripe about whatever new thing he thinks "Barry" just fucked up. I just have to laugh internally, because the man must have been trapped in a shard of the M'kraan crystal for the past eight years. We only see what we want to see. |

You know, the girls' restrooms at my high school were absolutely deplorable. Graffiti on everything, wet toilet paper balls stuck to the ceiling, people not flushing, paper towels on the floor, broken locks/seats, people emptying the seat cover dispensers for no reason, and the distinct scent of marijuana. Menstrual mess issues aside and such, this was just juvenile levels of hygiene. There's thousands of ways to be neat and discreet about girl issues, and toilet issue sin general, and this was just very frown inducing.
The funny thing is I went to a pretty damn good high school otherwise. WAY TO GO, GIRLS.

I really really hate using washrooms and get super embarrassed about it for no reason (I feel like people are watching) so I hold it in for like beyond normal times.
One time I had to go for over 8 hours. Needless to say, it's actually done some permanent damage...

One time I had to go for over 8 hours. Needless to say, it's actually done some permanent damage... Not sure if you get MSNBC up there, but there's a program on there called Lock Up. It's about life in America's prison system. One of the episodes showed a guy who refused to go to the bathroom for over a month, because he had a kite up his ass. And I thought Batman could do some impossible things... |

Holy shit! Like, a kite? Like WOOSH in the wind?
Christ, that's bad.
And like... man, that's crazy.

No, in prison terms, a kite is a note of some sort, usually gang-related. They're written in letters as small as possible, and often in a secret code to try to confuse corrections officers. The man in question had been caught with a kite, and he swallowed it in an attempt to hide the evidence. The guards decided to just put him in "the hole" until he finally shit the paper out. He held out as long as humanly possible because it meant his life. He was probably already marked for death for having been caught with a kite in the first place. His only hope was to hold out as long as he could, to prove his loyalty to the gang. |

What pisses me off is how some people can not comprehend opinions that differ than theirs. The unempathetic are the most annoying people on the planet.

I have the same problem at my work. I'm no bleeding heart by any stretch, but there are some real hawks in the office that bitch about Obama every day regardless of whether he did anything or not. They're also the type that find random crap on the internet ("documents") that Obama is from Mars or whatever and they forward it to everyone else they know is Conservative. Go USA. Short of organizing a revolution and lynching every dirty crook in Washington, you're not going to change anything (and anyway, some new crooks would just take over), so why bitch about it so much? |

This is obviously a biased opinion, but I believe that the main reason people focus on such irrelevant shit is because they have nothing else to focus their attention on. Sure, they probably have kids and bills and what not, but those are all obligations. They put all of their free time and thought into things that piss them off, because they have no other hobbies.
Videogames really have done a lot for me.

Guys, it's never a good idea to talk about politics or religion in your workplace. If anything just let them make asses of themselves and perpetually whine about the man.
It pisses me off too, specially when it's religion. I hate women who preach. There's this creature in my office that does it compulsively like that evil old lady from Stephen King's The Mist. I also hate it when people preach at the bus. It may be illegal in the US but it's not around here and you can have assholes telling you to let Jesus show you the light and vote for the candidates that fucked up this island. When they get close to me I say: "Hail Satan in Obama."
