Increasingly uninhabitable? Oh, I absolutely agree! I went to Target the other week, and the whole time I was walking around the store, I kept thinking how all these assholes should just be dropped in a pitt of acid.
Look people, it's real fucking simple. Don't stop and talk to your neighbor while your carts are side by side blocking the entrance to the aisle.
Don't walk so slow 90 year old women with a walker can pass you.
Don't stop and stare at the mustard section, as if you've never seen mustard before in your life. Meanwhile blocking the whole damn mustard section for everybody else.
If your kid starts yelling and screaming, smack em. If they cry, smack em again.
There is never a time your cell phone conversation about hemroid cream needs to be on speakerphone. This doesn't just apply to stores. This is a 100% of the time rule.
Speaking of speakers, you do not get to bring your bluetooth shitty $5 from 5below speaker thats clearly blown out, and blast it full volume as it rattles like an infant baby.
If you park in 2 spaces, I'm keying your car, asshole!
Small talk with the cashier extends for the time they're ringing you up. Once your shit has been rung up, and placed in bags, pay and get out asshole! Go make friends in the park. I PROMISE you, the cashier doesn't give a shit about whatever home improvement projects you're working on, that she'll never see.
Don't argue that some 16 year old making min wage stocking shelves didn't smile at you enough. Humans are allowed to feel however they feel. If they don't feel like smiling, maybe YOU should go jump off a pier.
Yes I'm angry. I'm angry because all of YOU
motions to all of society
All of YOU were apperently never taught the rules for being in spaces with other people. Then you wonder why a movie theater or a shopping mall gets shot up.
"Nobody could have seen it coming. There was nothing we could have done."
Yeah, there IS a lot you could have done. Why don't you go ahead and show me the last 10 public shootings in Japan, or Ireland, or Austrailia, or China, or Canada.
Some countries you'll need 20 years worth of time, others may need centuries. Others may not have 10 yet.
Meanwhile I could pull the last 10 American shootings from google in the past 2 weeks.
The best way to prevent shootings has nothing to do with actual gun control. It would help, but it doesn't address the core issue. The core issue is that people are out of their god damn minds over here feeling like everyone is attacking them. And that has EVERYTHING to do with how considerate people are to other people these days. Do you even care that you just cut in line? Do you even care that you just farted in that elevator? No. The world revolves around you, doesn't it?
I swear. Everette True needs to become a religion.
