And this busdriver driving that bus who wouldnt let the people get on because they wernt following the rules... Its not his place to inforce it, that is the polices' job. what he did was extreemly rude and in my opinion unexceptable.

oh right, my gripe. I am really irritated by people who brag all the time. Especially on facebook. Or when people post personal stuff as their facebook status, it annoys the hell out of me. Like love life stuff, or being mad at their boss, or being pissed off at their roommate (yes I've seen people post that sort of thing). If it happens on a regular basis, I filter them out so these people don't appear as part of my newsfeed.
Isn't that what facebook statuses are for?
im not debating ok... but this is my personal opinion.
Im a smoker, im not the type who stand there next to people who arnt smoking and blow it all around them but yes there is a sign and we are totaly aware that it is not inforced by law. but thats my point, it not illegal and i think its stupid for them to put up a sign that says "no smoking within 9 feet of the building" When 1.) its not even illegal and 2.) whats the point? I personaly would probably smoke somewhere else if it said "PLEASE do not smoke within 9 feet of the building" out of respect of the companys wishes.but it annoys me that they are trying to pretend that YOU CANT smoke within 9 feet.I think that if its not against the law i should be able to smoke where i want to. We dont feel like walking way over somewhere else just to get our "fix"
Well, what about the people who don't "feel like" passive smoking? The signs are there so that people walking into the building don't have to pass through a cloud of cigarette smoke at the entrances and exits. It's petty and somewhat childish to stand in front of a "no smoking" sign and smoke. And it's selfish.
My gripe: I am awake before 9am :brood:

Well the people who stand where they are blowing smoke all into peoples faces are being rude. but like i said im not one of those. and if its un against the law, no its not childish at all, were doing something that we are ALOWED to do. and selfish? please dont get me started on that, because the fact that we have to go back all the way across the parking lot, when at any minute we could get called in when its not illegal, is pretty stupid to me. Im not about to walk all the way over there when its not even illegal. Wouldnt you be pretty upset if the front of the building was reserved for smokers only, but you didnt want to miss being called in?? statisticly there are more smokers than there are not, I think we reserve the right to stand where we want when its legal and smoke our yummy cancer sticks :)

I just did a google search for 'signs of stress in cows' for my dissertation research. The first promising link I clicked was about how to identify signs of stress in dairy FARMERS because apparently they're losing "$100 to $150 per cow per month" and the "financial stress can be overwhelming, making it difficult to see beyond the losses".
It really irritated me that I was looking for information about cow welfare, and I got info about the number of DOLLARS farmers are losing over 'their' cows. It really makes me angry how people make a living out of animal farming. :furious:

*The lack of body coverage by young female college students. If we can see it all when you sit down or bend over, you need something a little more substantial.
*Painters who treat the windows just like the rest of the building. Um, plastic and painters tape worked well on the living room windows... can you use the same on the others?
*Breaking out into a sweat after applying self-tanner. Mm. Attractive. :yes:

I only have non-vegan ice-cream at home, not that I'm a vegan or anything, but I prefer cowless treats, even though the ones with cow-juice are tasty as well.

I can't say that I agree with that. :lol:

Apparantly....I just think it is tactless to allow hundreds of people in your online network to know about how tired you are from having sex all night, or complaining about your company and typing in your company's actual name, etc etc. I think it says a lot about a person when you can see they can't keep private things private.

I have too much that I want to do and not enough time to do it. The thing that sucks is that I WOULD have enough time if I could just get a regular mon-friday 9-5 job instead of these stupid evening shifts and partial weekend shifts that make it so difficult to do anything. It seems like the entire world revolves around the same schedule, making classes available on evenings and weekends, but I am totally not on schedule with everyone else. Don't get me wrong though, I AM thankful I have a job at all...

Michael Moore was on Tavis Smiley on the local PBS station on Tuesday...I missed both airings of the program... :brood: There is another PBS station I can get, but I can't seem to figure out when that particular installment is going to air again... :brood: It's on YouTube, or at least part of it...but I can't watch videos on my computer... :wall:

I keep saving my projects until the day before they're due and then pulling all nighters. Also, I have no time to go on VB except for when I'm procrastinating doing an essay!

I don't like being around people who are bitter about their lives and suck the joy out of other people's. for example my bf told me today that this guy he knows told him ''i'm not going to tell you what i think'' about the fact that he and I are moving in together. Okay so basically you have nothing nice to say because you think it is a bad idea because you are bitter and can't be happy for other people.
I don't need crap like that in my life and I wish he hadn't even told me about it. It pisses me off.

I have that on my tote bag :p
It would be so much easier for me if you'd just call me when you're going to the store, sitting out and watching to see if your car is leaving is time consuming and boring. Help a stalker out, won't you?
