Things You'll Never Get

I'd also like to know why blinkers only seem to be available as an option on most luxury cars.

Why people have no idea what the right of way is anymore, and why you feel you can make a left turn across 4 lanes of traffic, including a median that's 2 cars wide, in front of cars trying to make a left turn off of the median.

I'm glad they're taking themselves out via Darwinism, but I don't like it when they take others with them

It wasn't so bad when I had the little Sentra, but one of these idiots ruined that for me. So now I have a Ranger that I have to drive, and nobody seems to understand that pickup trucks can't really go on a dime to make quick jumps into traffic, and most importantly DON'T STOP ON A DIME! lol. I get cut off so often that I quite frequently won't even bother trying to top the speed limit.

Why do people put their GPS in the middle of the windshield? It's distracting and blocks a good chunk of what you need to be seeing, and leaves lovely suction cup marks where you need to be able to see clearly, but I seem to be the only one who keeps theirs in the lower left corner of the windshield.

Why do people discriminate against others based on their appearance alone?

How come when my cell phone no longer has enough batter to support the antenna, it just shuts off the antenna but I can still play games for up to 3 hours before it shuts itself off? What good is the cell phone if I can't make the phone call or text that I need to, and why should I be able to play games if I can't make a call. What happened to the good old days of if it can't use the antenna, it just shuts itself off? And how come I have to manually turn the damn antenna back on if the phone decides to shut it off?

Why is it ok that cartoon bears never wear pants?

What the HELL happened to the good Nickelodeon shows?

Why can't we have female action heroes that keep their clothes on or wear blue jeans instead of latex?

Why is Angelina Jolie's homewrecking tolerated?

What happened to Kevin Spacey?

Why can't we get the regular fucking BBC instead of BBC America?

Why is Megan Fox billed as an "actress". Really? REALLY? Give my foot a script and fake tits and it could out-act her ass anyday.

Why do amgazines praise "going green" when they stuff 68 of those subscription cards in each issue?

Victoria, I agree with all of these!

Also, at my kid's school, they have a Lost and Found. Usually, there are a pair of pants in the Lost and Found. HOW could you LOSE a pair of pants? We always laugh at that one, as we are often looking for lost mittens, hoodies, sweaters, jackets etc for our kids.

Sammi, your neighbors probably spray nasty chemicals on their lawn, to "get rid" of something as benign as dandelions.

I didn't know they did golf on the radio. WTF? (They'd need to whisper then, too, right?)

He did, but that doens't count! I miss the old Kevin Spacey from the Usual Suspects and Se7en. He's such a good villain. He would be perfect as Moriarty in the next Sherlock Holmes...then again so would Christoph Waltz.

Why do people makes turns without looking and ignore stop signs?

Because I'm not going to feel bad when I end up hitting one of them and it's their fault.

I especially hate those restaurants that don't let the waitresses write things down. Of course they are going to forget stuff, who wouldn't?

Why do people have such an issue with nudity? Everyone is naked without their clothes, so why is it a big deal?

Why can't I go around topless? (Not that I would, it would be too uncomfortable without a bra, but shirtless would be nice.)

Why do people find limeade so strange?

Why do people always say "Oh, you'll change your mind," in such a dismissive manner when I say I don't want to have children? It is rude to dismiss my words!

Why aren't sewing machines made so that they're easier to clean on the inside?

Why is menstruation so horrible?

Why do people think it's ok to blast obnoxious music from their cars? Volume increase will not increase the quality of the music!

Why is college so expensive? Everyone is told to go to school and learn, but it's simply too expensive for some people to do, even if they want to.

I don't understand why people have to stick the GPS right in the middle of the damn windshield. All it does is block your vision and god forbid you have to hit a key it's way out of the way.

And I still don't understand the "Myspace" picture thing. I keep seeing them everywhere, and honestly, if you're going to take a picture of yourself, and you absolutely have to do it in the bathroom, could you take the time to flush the toilet and maybe clear your pill bottles off the counter? Oh, and generally the only people interested in seeing down your shirt are the kind of people you spend all day complaining about, so stop complaining about these people being creepy when 98% of your pictures that you haven't bothered to make private are you making a pouty face while the camera stares down your shirt...

/end rant, for now.

Why do the people most able to pay taxes, and still have great lives with every freakin thing they want get all the tax breaks?

Why do people who will never have ANY hope of joining the "Rich, White, Republican Boys Club" think that those people are going to help them and vote against their own income strata and economic class? (My guess is that hatred of "brown people" or anyone different causes them to think this way, that and wanting to keep their little measly stacks of money to themselves. Which, as most of them are NOT rich, they will end paying up more taxes than the people they elect.)

Why does the Middle School and the Grammar School have "Curriculum Night" on the same night so parents are torn and running all over the village?

Why does that nosy librarian hate me so much to attempt to close my account, because one of my kids had a (get this) $3.27 fine? Why does she call other libraries to see if I've been there? (It's completely allowable and encouraged, but the other librarians know me and say, "Why the hell is Martha always calling here trying see if you have an overdue book? Only you. Nobody else."

Why does stuff go on sale the day after I buy it?

Why do people who obviously have NO interest in children, nor their welfare, nor their upbringing, and spend the LEAST time with them have to have the MOST children of anybody I know?

Why do some people think Pier 1 Imports is a flea market they can walk in and try and bargain down our prices?

Why do people pay hundreds of dollars for gorgeous home decor products, say they will be in a week later to pick it up and not show up for (going on) 6 months?

Why are people annoying?

How funny! I was just thinking that yesturday about the shoe thing. I saw one on the side of the road yesturday and began to ponder why the hell is there always a shoe on the side of the road? Did they lose it? Did they purposely toss it? Did a kid throw it out the window? It will remain a mystery of the universe!
