1. Hyperbole.

2. People who tailgate while driving.

3. Why anyone ever thought spandex was a right and not a privilege.

How about you?

8. I know you didn't ask for answers, but too bad!
1. You're married, so that's a given. :P

2. Not even on life?

3. You are such a looser. :silly:

12. Answers to answers:
(Funk to funky, we know my internal rhymes are clunky:)

1. I'm married to the sweetest, kindest woman in the world. I love her to death.

So obviously there's no sex going on.

2. You can smoke "life" cereal?! Shit, why didn't anybody tell me?! No wonder Mikey likes it!

Apart from Scotchgard, Nyquil, meth and the occasional 20 hits of blotter acid (on every other monday), nope, I'm a drug-free zone, baby snooks!

3. Irregardless of the fack that I'm a looser...Opps! Whose checking my spelling?

9. Toe/Foot fetishism
People who take an elevator up one flight of stairs.

People who STILL don't drive with their seatbelts on - and I think we all know someone who has died in a carwreck, without their seatbelt on.

13. I'm perplexed by people who take a bus from one stop to the next....
Or just for a few blocks. Why pay to go somewhere you can walk to for free and in less time?

I see this all the time here in Chicago. Maybe it's the sassidge making people act so stoopit.

15. Re the first point, you'll appreciate this:
http://avalona.net:16080/funpages/WorldIn7Pics/

And I couldn't agree more about seat belts. My Dad is a nightmare & I really worry when he's driving alone without anyone to nag.

16. When I worked in Wilmington, I constantly saw people take the elevator
down three flights (from the lobby to the garage) while CARRYING THEIR GYM BAG! OY! How dumb is that?

21. to take that foot thing one step (!) further
Police Catch Man With Foot Fetish On UW Campus
http://www.komotv.com/stories/39917.htm

He'd portray himself as a psychology student...For 5 years, women answered his questions and took their shoes off for him AFTER he told them he could tell one's fortune by looking at the lines on one's feet.

I guess you don't have to be smart to get into college.

25. I can "get" it, somewhat,
but what I can't get is exactly WHY foot fetishism has seemed to expand in influence year after year, for at least the past ten years or so.

Hell, on "Commander In Chief" tonight, they even had a gratuitous shot of President Geena Davis's bare feet walking slowly across the Presidential Seal woven into the carpeting of the Oval Office!

20. If you want to hurt someone, treat them as a non-entity.

11. Okay, here goes
1. TV shows about wife-swapping

2. How anyone can get excited about going to the mall :puke:

3. Why only 2 college kids showed up tonight to a peace vigil on University of Michigan campus (in fact, I could use a hug for that one, it was too depressing)

:hi:

19. 1. Sales people who can't be bothered to tell you your total, to count
change back to you, or God forbid, say 'thank you' in between chewing gum and talking to SO on cell phone entire time they are 'waiting' on you. WTF happened to customer service???
2. Mean people in general. Anywhere.
3. GWB in the WH
4. Why parents who don't want to be parents still have their kids, and parents who dearly love and treasure their children having them taken away.

22. Stuff I don't get....
1. Reality TV.

2. Shoes that women wear with the really exaggerated pointy toes. They look like shoes that the Munchkins wore. Shoes like these...



:shrug:

3. People who smoke. And pay $3.00 or more a pack. Then bitch because they're broke.

24. I don't get why reality TV
is so popular. It's actually about as unreal as it gets.

27. 1.People who's cars deposit parts on the road.
2.Repugs who talk about this supposed rugged individualism then take every dime in every welfare program they can get their hands on

3. Kids who grow up without encouragement. I know it happens all the time. I just mean it's real sad.
