    I know, I was fixated by your diatribe about glue.

    well next week i shall be discussing 'good' bacteria.
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    today's society sucks..nobody carries cash anymore


    charging a buck for a coffee...throw a few bills in your pocket

    White people don't carry cash any more. But black people pay for everything in cash. One of my life observations.

    I'm going to CVS with coupons for the wrong items. While I write a check, I hope I'm not embarrassed while my cell phone rings like a rotary phone, meanwhile I hold up the line while the clerk tells me my coupons are for the wrong brand of Depends :D

    I have many twenties and I'm not a dealer :) I do think money is filthy, however...
    would you turn me down if I offered you some twenties?

    oh I didn't think of that. an old woman at a retirement party could have put one of my twenties in a male dancer's g string. and now it is in my purse. I could wash my money and hang it out to dry?

    Years ago when my grandmother died we were emptying out the house she'd lived in since about 1940. She had a big, black metal telephone downstairs. You could kill someone with it, it was so heavy. Andwhen it rang you could hear it outside.

    We all had a good laugh... until later when we were settling her estate and found out that she had been renting that phone from the phone company for all those years.Literally decades.

    Can't even tell you how many phones she could have bought with what she paid for rent... :(
    you are hilarious.
    my great uncle had the exact phone only it wasn't metal.
    black plastic rotary phone 4 ft long coil twisted cord.
    in a phone mounting station built into the kitchen wall beside the kitchen table.
    rented phones.
    i remember it was like a couple bucks, maybe 3 or 4 bucks per month forever. over time inflation no doubt.
    my dad discovered the fee on uncle's
    phone bill.
    he was shocked, we're talking 30-90 or more years of phone renting.

    uncle thought it was great.

    I literally cannot stop laughing right this minute reading this post by you and unlost! I am suppost to be sleeping but hadd to check this thread! :D

    I dig the rotary phone but I think it's soooooo dumb that people now have the old black rotary phone ringtone on their cell phones!!! WTF!

    senrock, that annoying ring tone (free) is the only one my husband likes. he is only 41. but
    if he paid for a ring tone, isn't that just as bad as when people had to pay to rent a land line in the OLD days?

    Counting coins is worse IF after an initial counting, that old hand has to go back into that old back & search around for more pennies. Personally, that when I shift legs.

    It's not just old people at all that slow down driving.

    Also, it's not just the speed limit that slows things down. Driving in the left lane next to someone, not negotiating intersections properly, not understanding how to merge/yield, etc., etc.

    People....all people it seems infringe on the efficiency of others.

    I notice the majority of people are not aware of what is happening in the space immediately around them.

    People will be walking right towards me, I see them coming, I stop and they act startled when they get my shoulder in their teeth.

    I saw a young guy texting on the BW parkway with a big space in front of him and he held up traffic while he busily had both hands on his phone and did not look up. he was not old. so I agree with your last statement.

    I was a young boy that had big plans
    Now I'm just another shitty old man
    I don't have fun and I hate everything
    This world owes me so fuck you

    Glory days don't mean shit to me
    I drank a six pack of apathy
    Life's a bitch and so am I
    The world owes me so fuck you

    Wasted youth and a fistful of ideas
    I had a young and optimistic point of view
    Wasted youth and a fistful of ideas
    I had a young and optimistic point of view

    I've decomposed yet my gut's getting fat
    Oh my God, I'm turning out like my Dad
    I'm always rude, I've a bad attitude
    The world owes me so fuck you

    The wife's a nag and the kids fucking up
    I don't have sex 'cause I can't get it up
    I'm just a grouch sitting on the couch
    The world owes me so fuck you
