Generally It’s When I Don’t, But There ARE Exceptions

Some days it’s a toss up on whether it upsets me more when I don’t understand people . . . or when I do.

Other Days That Thought Is Less Comforting

Some days I take an odd comfort in the idea that things must be going pretty well for a lot of people for so many of them to have the time and energy to argue about such ridiculous things.

My Internal Monologue Has No Filters

Today I read about something someone whose work I used to profoundly admire doing something I found even more profoundly distasteful than anything I had ever admired about them.  When confronted about this, their response was, essentially, “I’m being persecuted for my political beliefs!”.

To which my internal monologue responded, “*****, I didn’t even know about your political beliefs before you said something, and I still thought it was a **** move!”.

A Conversation I Overheard Today

Person #1: You be careful if you take your vehicle to him to work on.  If all he has to do is wipe some oil off your engine, he’s still going to charge you because it costs money to launder the oil off that rag.

Person #2:  He’s right.  I will because it does, but . . . if I don’t wipe enough oil off the first time, I’ll comp you the cost of the second rag.

Sometimes I Have To Remind Myself Of This More Than Once In Any Given Day

It’s important to keep in mind that “irritating” is not the same thing as “bad,” particularly when it comes to people.

It’s Probably Both

While some people make it abundantly obvious in their particular case, generally speaking, I can’t tell if the world is filled with too many people who need to grow up . . . or too many people who need to grow down.

Today’s Thoughts Are Along The Same Lines As Yesterday’s Thoughts

To paraphrase some advice I read a long time ago, be good to the people around you; you never know when you’re going to need them to do something really stupid for you, like pulling you out of a fire, or pushing you out of the way of an oncoming vehicle instead of doing the sensible thing and just getting out of the way themselves.  Heck, for that matter, you never know when you’re just going to need someone to call 911 for you, and that’s not the best time to have just finished calling someone a worthless excuse of human garbage.

I’m just saying.

Some people create their own storms, then get mad when it rains.

I’m Pretty Sure That’s Not What Most People Are Going For

Lots of people hope to make their mark on history, but I doubt too many people dream of news of their death being the start of a humongous street party . . .
