Rant City Betch, Rant Rant City

So today’s topic for #blogeverydayinmay is rant about something.  I don’t know if I can rant about anything without pissing someone off.  But then I remembered I don’t really care if I piss anyone off, because I’m pretty WYSIWYG.  And no, I don’t mean that in #technerd terms.  Here are a couple of things that piss me right the hell off:

ATLANTA DRIVERS:

First off all DO YOU NOT SEE THE SIGN THAT SAYS 4 WHEELS ONLY IN THE LEFT LANES?  GET YOUR SEMI OUT OF MY WAY!  And if you are going less than 70MPH and you’re in the outside lane, I WILL tailgate you in the family Jetta until you GTFO of my way.  Seriously. No wonder this city has so much traffic.  Everyone is so busy scarfing their chicken minis and sweet teas that they can’t go more than 60MPH on the interstate. 

FAKE LONG DISTANCE-ERS:

Oh, your boyfriend lives 80 miles away and you have to drive every Friday to see him?  That must be SO unfortunate. You should probably talk about it all the time so people feel sorry for you, even though most normal people are too busy to see their significant other multiple times a week anyway. But seriously. The amount of times that “My boyfriend lives 2,000 and a $500 plane ride away” was responded to by “Oh, I TOTALLY understand, it’s so hard for me to drive to Milwaukee 45 minutes to see my boyfriend. Long distance sucks”.  Um no. You don’t understand.  If you don’t require a plane to see each other, you’re not long distance.  And if you can’t make that work, you definetly shouldn’t be together.  And while we’re at it: LONG DISTANCE HATERS: “Oh that never works out. Someone always cheats. It’s impossible. I’d never do that!” Well good for fucking you. Did I ask your opinion? No. Did I give you my unsolicited opinion on what a douche your boyfriend is? Nope. So back off.

NEWS OUTLETS WHO CARE TOO MUCH ABOUT KIDS:

This one is probably going to get me some shit, but it’s in the news right now and it’s driving me crazy. Seriously. I don’t understand why, in every tragedy, we have to talk about death tolls in terms of “XX people died, xx of them were children”.  Why are the children more relevant? Yes, they’re younger, and some would say more innocent.  Does that mean that they were more worthy of living through a hurricane, tornado, shooting, whatever? No. It doesn’t.  People dying in general is tragic.  We don’t need to try and make levels of suck out of this. It’s not a competition. The adults that you don’t seem to feel the need to count? They’re parents, siblings, grandparents, children themselves, co-workers, community members, etc. So stop ignoring them.

ME ME ME FRIENDS:

So you only invite someone places when whatever guy you’re dating at the time is busy? Or you only feel the need to call when you want to brag about something? And during entire conversations you don’t, not even once, ask a question, just talk about you you you.   You are not a friend. You are a self centered pain in the ass. If you can’t name three things that are currently plaguing your “friend”, you’re probably not really a friend.  Re-evaluate.

PEOPLE WHO DON'T LIKE BEYONCE:

Fools. All of you. 

So….that’s just a few things. I’m smart enough to not work rant on blogs :D. Just kidding, I actually really like my job. So there! A little sliver of positivity in an otherwise whiny post.  Please feel free to comment and tell me what pisses you the hell off.
