The mediocrity of people in general

I lament how utterly mediocre our society in general has become. Perhaps it was always this way, but I really think people are getting dumber and mor ignorant the older I get. I have to navigate around this nonsense everyday.

Workplace politicians, who never accept responsibility for their actions, and instead try to blame others or simply ignore problems, as if that would solve them.

People who can barely spell their own name correctly, and cannot write even basic English, given jobs in a supposedly professional position. Reading what you write, I am embarrassed FOR you.

People who work in service jobs, who cannot follow instructions and do what is requested the first time around and are surprised when the customer complains.

High school diplomas handed out to students who cannot name the three branches of government, as if they actually learned something.

College degrees handed out to graduates who cannot write proper English or even perform basic math.

People who read books while driving a car.
People who text while driving a car.
People who constantly run their mouths on the phone in their car, instead of, you know, DRIVING.

People who stand in line with a cell phone stuck to their ear, running their mouth, who when they get to the counter, rudely continue their conversation, while the rest of us in line, wait for them to make up their mind. While we're at it, anyone who carries on cell phone conversations in public. You are rude, and no one wants to hear about your pathetic ramblings. That goes double for you idiots with 2 way radios. Take it somewhere else.

Parents who let their grown children live with them past the age of 30.
Newsflash, if you are 30 and still living with Mommy and Daddy, you are a LOSER.

Students who commute to UGA from Cobb county on a daily basis.
Single drivers who think they need a giant SUV to commute 5 miles to work, because it makes them "safe" and they can carry all their "stuff".

To all you hillbillies, venturing out into public for the first time...

How about letting people get OFF the elevator before you try to get on, m-kay?

Uptalking??

It was annoying enough with so many grown women uptalking (putting an upward inflection on the last word of a statement that makes it sound like a question when it's not) and sounding like complete idiots.
Now I hear grown men doing it. WTF gives?
You sound like a total SWPL Herb.

Roomie

Dear roomate,
you have been oh so very late on the rent before. yes our landlord is understanding and gives us a flexible time, but still you always wait to the last minute. now you have taken it upon yourself to be timely on the rent. awesome. however i was late on rent this month. and by late i mean still within the parameters our landlord has given us, you decide to send it in without me. thanks so much. it's not like i've ever waited to send in rent until well after the flexible time the landlord has given us to send in rent.
thanks so much for showing me the courtesy i have shown you...wait....

Needs or Wants?

"Politicians never accuse you of 'greed' for wanting other people's money - only for wanting to keep your own money." -- Joseph Sobran

I think the same applies to gutterpunks.

"Apt Complex off Oconee" Management, why do you suck so bad?

you have airheads running the lease office.

and can you at least attempt to keep the homeless people from rummaging our dumpster?

and stop towing our friends!

I know you may be sweepy...

...but please cover your yawn. Nobody needs to see your full-frontal, nostril-flaring donkey face. Seriously, did your parents teach you any manners at all?

Once AGAIN loud music before 8AM

I got some advice before (banging on the ceiling sometimes seems to make them actually STFU, so thanks for that one) but now it seems the only real solution to the problem is for me to buy a house or buy a [redacted so that people will not accuse me of making death threats].

Two sides to every story...

What is it with "same-siders" at restaurants in town? You know, when one couple at a booth both sit on the same side, leaving the other side empty. Can they not stand to look each other in the face?

I thought all that ended with middle school.
