Rants and Comments Section


This section is totally self-serving for me.  It's my way to vent and pass on some of my opinons and views on random subjects.  You may or may not agree with them, or may even want to pass on your comments to me.

Bicyclists

One of my biggest pet peeves is cyclist on the road ways. Our city and its surrounding suburbs have been nice enough to spend a whole bunch of money adding bicycle lanes to most of the road.  But what really chaps my ass is when those cyclists have to ride the little divider line separating them from the cars and trucks.  If your gonna ride you bike, use YOUR lane and not mine, otherwise I'm gonna think that your fair game and want to be a hood ornament on my cement mixer.  Use your space and stay the hell outta mine.  And even if there is no divider you dont need to take three lanes cycling your way to god knows where, wearing your fag spandex riding clothes, helmets, and carrying your little bottle of water or gatoraid.  Get a freekin real life, you look anorexic as it is and if i hit you then im gonna have to scrape you outta my tire treads, which in turn will slow me down even more.  Plus the paperwork involved is a real drag.  

Women and toilet seats

Okay folks another thing that really rips me is the festish woman have about the toilet seat and its proper position when a man uses it.  You raise mortal hell and attempt to train us to put it up when we use the bathroom, then go in fits of rage if we forget to put it back down.  Come on ladies, one or the other. Make up your minds.  If we can be thotfull enuff to put it up, you can use a few brain cells to make sure its down before you go do your business.  If you give yourself an unknowing rinse I say its your fault.  Be happy if we manage to hit the damn toilet in the first place.  You dont hear me griping about all the cosmetics and hair products that adorn the counter.  And leave us alone while were in there doin our thing too.  I dont want company.  Leave your comments of the odors to yourself.  And contrary to popular belief you guys can smell a place up just as bad. 

Political Correctness

Oh please, just get over it.  The country has become so worried about what words, phrases, and actions are deemed politically incorrect that no-one will say what's really on their minds.  Now I'm NOT referring to anything that is spoken against a group, or race of any particular kind.  I'm flat out tired of things being softened to make sure no one gets their shorts in a bind.  A freekin manhole cover is a manhole cover, not a person hole cover.  GET REAL damn it. 

Howard Stern and the FCC

You may not like Howard Stern.  Even some of the things he does on his program I'm not so wild about.  But one thing for certain, this is a man who worked his ass off and has made a tremendous amount of difference in radio broadcasting.  His number one belief in the freedom of speech is paramount to our society.  The premise that his actions or words are unfit for the media is total crap.  Here is a thought, it's your responsibility as an adult to make a decision to listen to it or tune it out, and make sure if you don't want your children to have access to it be aware of what their doing.  If you want him to go away, just DON'T listen.  The more you make a fuss about it, the more publicity and attention he will receive.  Personally I hope he stays around for a long time and that his new deal with satellite radio is a success.  Our government bodies waste enuff time and resources as it is, let them get down to real business and go after real BAD people, like killers, rapists, and thieves.  Stupid is as stupid does.  

Coffee Bars

What kinda crap is this? All i want is a cup of coffee with some cream and sugar. Yes, I need my cream and sugar.  But back to the point. If it takes you more than 5 seconds to order a cup of coffee because your ordering something that sounds like a newly released medicine or a foreign car something is way wrong.  Coffee is coffee. If I wanna get in touch with my feminine side I'll put a pair of my wife's underwear and prance around.  I stopped this morning to get a coffee and the lady behind the counter looks smugly at me asking if i knew what I wanted and if there were any questions. Hell yeah, I want a cup of coffee, cream, and sugar.
