Bahh fucking HumBug!!!
I went to Lowes yesterday at 7am, and as I passed all the Christmas trees and lights and decorations put up inside the entrance, the manager asked me in front of about 10 employees “Hi how are you?”. I responded, “It really sucks that it’s September, and you have all this Christmas SHIT up!” .
And you wonder why nobody gets in the spirit, has depression, stress, and is fully fed up with “The Holidays” by the first week of November. Fucking merchants shoving Christmas season guild up our ass 3 full months before the gifts get opened. BITE ME, oh greedy corporations, trying to beat the other guy to the sale!
Why not just take the white trailer trash approach and leave the shit up all year long? (no offense to folks living in modular housing) If I wanted to have Christmas all year long, I’d go have a gender change to elf, and get a job with Santa at the FUCKING NORTH POLE!
I was at the dollar store the other day so I thought I would check out their Hallowe’en stuff (which is normally awesome) and there is only a half an aisle left. They have two full isles of seasonal stuff and one and a half are already Christmas. I am not even ready for Hallowe’en yet!
Hey Dumbass Realtor,
You have the wrong number. Stop leaving me voicemails that end with “call me back” and don’t include a fucking callback number. Here’s another hint. If you don’t want to leave a number, don’t withhold your number from the Caller ID. I get two messages a day from you saying it’s urgent, but I have absolutely no way to contact you to tell you you’ve got the wrong number. At least I have the satisfaction of knowing your client is gonna be pissed at you because you’re an idiot.
They’ve got Halloween stuff too, right? You need to buddy up to one of the employees (a younger one if you can) and convince them to redo the display into a Nightmare Before Christmas-esque motif.
One of my co-workers also works at a Lowe’s and I’ve nearly persuaded her. A few more days and I should have her.
overly, my grandboss pulled the same crap when Mr. Shoe and I first took in our Guy On Couch. (“Oh, that’s such a good, Christian thing to do!”) I like being employed, so I stayed silent.
(Man, I just realized dude’s been staying with us since July!)
We make a happy little atheist household: two cats, Guy On Couch, the Other Shoe, and me. Well, the cats might be theists, but I suspect that they think we worship them. What does that make them?
Make sure the pills can be crushed. Sometimes they’re those time-release pills that should not be crushed. That said, I’ve always had good luck with the jarred baby food meat for getting pills into the furry little bastards. Mine refuse their regular wet food when it’s been ‘contaminated’ with pills, so I use the baby food. It’s meat, but the consistency of pudding. They love it.
No, it’s not relevant at all. In fact, the way I was taught was that you’re not supposed to go around bragging to others about the good deeds you do. Just do it, and shut up about it. God knows what you’ve done, and that’s enough.
Why, oh, why, when my family/household lose something, do they look to me expecting me to find it?! You would think that they’d all be sick and tired of hearing some variation of “I don’t know/I didn’t lose it/not my problem/go look for it…” And why won’t my husband learn - from repeated experience - that toddlers love to play with stuff, break it, or lose it. The remote, his phone, watch, and keys, and today, his pocket clip (atm card, license, work ID, passkey, and fuel card… Yeah, try putting stuff out. Of. Her. Reach.
Also, in my experience, the more loudly and often someone proclaims his religion, the higher the chance they’re gonna screw me over.
Ask DoT, I was thinking of changing my car’s color (may still do it, since I don’t want to change it until the next time there’s a government offer) and that’s what I did. Turns out that, since my car is old enough that its papers don’t list the color, all I have to do is get it painted, no “modifications” to file - and that’s in Spain, where anything bigger than a country-code sticker counts as a modification and requires filing
Crap. My husband’s bosses wife just found me on Facebook. Its not that I don’t like her, she’s a really nice person and she & the boss have been good to us.
Its just that now I feel like I have to be careful what I post because she is rather typically South Texas right wing. God, guns, and barely veiled bigotry. And I am not.
Also looking forward (not) to lots of unpleasant posts and forwards and “REPOST THIS!” -es…Grrr… Maybe time to make a alias account?
