Random Rants #38
Not many things are more frustrating than scribbling something down in a hurry and then not being able to read your own writing later.
I hate shopping for any kind of potential major purchase such as home, a car, furniture, or large appliances. If forced to make a choice between this kind of shopping and a root canal, I'm not 100% certain that I wouldn't select the root canal!
I hate social events. No, I'm not antisocial. In fact, I like being around a lot of people. I just don't like being in a situation in which I feel pressured to socialize with anyone. Actually, I do a better a job of socializing at events where the primary focus is something other than socializing.
As long as my health remained okay, I would want to continue to stick around indefinitely just to see what happens with all the new technological innovations, even if I had no other motivation for living.
It is not my responsibility to prevent you from doing evil; it is your responsibility to refrain from doing evil.
While flipping through the radio stations in my car the other day, I came across "I Want It That Away" by the Backstreet Boys. Ironically, the next station I switched to was playing "You Can't Always Get What You Want" by the Rolling Stones!
I'm a lot more mellow now than when I was in my 20's and 30's. I guess it has to do with the fact that I know, even if I live to be 100, I likely have less than 20 good years left. Therefore, I don't have time to waste getting upset and/or worrying about things that don't amount to a hill of beans.
We all know that the companies that sponsor TV programs run their commercials during those programs. But what about the commercials that air after one program ends and before the next one begins? What exactly are the companies that run those commercials sponsoring?
Any time there's a big winter storm, no matter where, members of the media will say it's the worst winter storm to hit that particular area in many years.
Your first few rants could have been straight out my diary, I am not so weird after all.
