Got a lot piling up on me lately, stress from moving house & prepping the old one for sale, work, dogs, kids, politics. Being maladjusted, I am running out of temper to deal with these things and it is time I lash out anonymously. So here it is–a complete troll of a post, lovingly crafted to get at least some of you to express some semblance of the rage and frustration I am struggling with. In response to any expressions of outrage, please allow me at this time a disingenuous protest, insisting I mean no offense. ---

I am feverishly inflamed and offended to the core of my being! In fact, I’m so disgusted that I’ve written this doubly-incendiary response! You say I’m out of line? That I shouldn’t go there? Well I am going there, sir! _I AM!_ ---

The guy who comes in daily to empty the trash always puts my trash can back in a different place - maybe against the wall, maybe against the desk, maybe against the column. How can I be expected to function in this environment?!?!?!? ---
