Only it seems as if ALL my neighbors have some sort of gas powered lawn cutting mechanism going! :mad: :mad: :mad:

Assholes. It's a gorgeous Friday night. Would throwing stones at their heads be a really bad thing?

1. Think of the poor stones
Throw Republicans instead.

2. It really sucks not to be able to enjoy what would otherwise be an
extremely beautiful evening. And it's been going on for hours :(

I don't think there are many Republicans I could actually lift off the ground considering the fact that their heads are filled with bricks, but it was a nice suggestion. :)

17. Leaf blowers, hedge trimmers and lawn mowers!
Why do something by hand when you can create pollution instead? x(

4. I wish I could say the same, JimmyJazz
this summer sucks; am currently in the midst of non-stop 100+ degree days and I failed to find real relief in Pennsylvania OR Illinois because the humidity was just TERRIBLE! :(

16. I told you! You walk outside and immediately feel like you're in
a rain forest! I'll bet you didn't have one good hair day the entire time you were here :)

18. OMG JIMMY
Edited on Fri Aug-26-05 10:32 PM by Skittles
did I tell you about when I got my hair cut in Philly because it just wouldn't behave and I could not stand it? IT WAS A SCENE STRAIGHT OUT OF BARBERSHOP; I KID YOU NOT. The gal kept shaking me going GIRL I CAN'T CUT YO' HAIR; YOU MOVING TOO MUCH. I was moving because I was laughing so hard at her and another girl who were arguing about what to eat. My hairdresser was screaming at another hairdresser GIRL I DON'T WANT NONE OF THAT NASTY-ASS CHINESE BARBEQUE SHRIMP YOU GOT LAST WEEK. OMG JJ it was TOO FUNNY. :D

And may I say that gal did a GREAT job on my hair. :thumbsup:

9. 80 degrees here in North Georgia and my A/C
will be staying on until it drops to 60 degrees. I sweat when the temperature is above 70 degrees.

11. I hate running the A/C!
It's so stinking expensive. Yes vaulted ceilings are pretty, but who can afford to cool a house with them.

:(

14. Actually, the humidity is only 31%.
But it's 97 degrees out. :( I have a digital thermostat provided by the city. They can take control of it if there's too much usage. They raised my setting to 80. Of course, I only set it at 79 anyway, but still. x(
