Human troughs

[Seraphic]

So I bought this book a while back called 11,002 things to be miserable about and despite it's name, I find myself reading through the book and just laughing at the hilarity of it all.
Some examples:
Parents spending thousands of dollars framing their childrens preschool work
7 year olds in strollers
The fact that Britney Spears' half eaten french toast was sold on ebay

What are some things that make you go argh or make you roll your eyes internally?

People who own treadmills they use once a week and then bitch they don't lose weight.

Yo-yos that do all the work for you.

Christian vs. Atheist battles that rage on for weeks.

90% of the Internet saying they're writing a book, but when I ask them to show me what they've got they say "Oh, well, nothing, but it's in my head" and continue to say so for the rest of their life.

e-Books with the ultimate piracy prevention ^

I could be too retarded to understand what you're saying, but if you mean if they ever do get around to writing it, I don't mean they hand me the whole thing, just a snippet, not hand me all their ideas and outline or something. I'm not sure I get what you're saying.

What I mean is that they claim to be writers but never once sit down and type a single word for their entire life.

People who keep saying I should stop argueing logic about fantasy and scifi movies. I CAN ONLY TALK ABOUT THE WEATHER FOR SO BLODDY LONG, YOU COME UP WITH A TOPIC OF CONVERSATION!

[Jiro]

What I was saying is that they're great novel only exists in their head where nobody can see it. It was worded horribly, and probably still is. You're not retarded, I am. Or maybe we both are. Huh, weird.

[blackmage_nuke]

I thought your comment was funny, I got it, maybe im the retarded one

[LunarWeaver]

It was so me XD I'm sorry, Jiro. Let's give each other presents come Columbus Day (the only important holiday).

[rubah]

I got it, jiro.

people who think the US shouldn't catch up to the rest of the world re: public transit, education, health care, the metric system

Yes, that is the greatest holiday of the year.

I find the whole daylight savings business to be ludicrous. Time was created to be standard, so why change it around? And all it does is make it daylight at 9pm here, which means all those kids who have bedtimes at 7pm will be ridiculously tired the next day.

When you said Human Troughs I thought you were talking about the kind of urinals that are at Joe Louis Arena.

:/ They're not classy.

It is in fact, the opposite of classy,my dear.
That is the point.

So are people who are not as funny as they think they are.

The toilets at my school lack seats. Which makes me question - what is the point of them if you can't use them for their purpose?

Pretty kids who don't have to try as hard in life.

People who ask what's wrong with your face.

Casual acquaintances who don't answer the usual "How are you?" question with "Fine!" but rather their long, current depressing life story in the middle of Wal-Mart.

Opening the mailbox to bills.

I have a lot of things to be miserable about apparently. I feel I will be in this thread a lot.

I always reply "good", "not bad", "pretty good" or "yeah, alright" regardless of how I'm feeling. Because when people ask you how you are on the fly, they usually don't care and just want to say hi.
