Sometimes I think I'm too judgmental... But then I realize, no, people are just stupid. So stupid, in fact, that they cannot decipher when it is appropriate to assume things, and when it is not.
I'm sure that you've experienced this, yes? Maybe you posted a status, or said something and that one friend (or not a friend?) jumps to conclusions an assumes it's about them, so they start spewing derogatory terms out of their pie-hole at you. That happened to me yesterday.
I posted a status on Facebook, that was completely reasonable, and this kid posted a comment on it with some terribly vulgar language. It didn't hurt my feeling at all (he seems to think he's somewhat of a "badass"), but he sure made a fool out of himself.
Anyways, after his outburst of angry name calling, I replied "It's not about you, buddy," and he said something along the lines of "bs, and who are you to judge, blah, blah, blah,". To that I said, "Alright. Whatever helps you sleep at night," but what I WANTED to say was, "You have no idea who I'm talking about, and why I am saying it. So maybe you should get your head outta your ass, and grow some balls. Don't loose your mind every time you think someone has posted something that could break your 'oh so delicate' ego."
But since I'm not a child, I was respectful, and I didn't.
I just want to thank the few readers I have. I don't have many. Maybe 4 or 5, and I know who three of them are, but to each of you, I appreciate you. Coleslaw.

If I Had a Horn, I'd Honk It.
The other day I was walking. I wasn’t walking far, just downthe hallway to my next class. Its 48 steps – I counted. However; one “snail” makesthis task daunting, and nearly impossible. When I finally sat down at my workbench with my lab coat and my safety glasses, I found myself very irritated.Here’s why: people walk slowly. So slow, that in fact, I am almost late forclass every day, which is totally ridiculous considering the proximity of myclasses. I mean, come on! They’re all onone floor!
I’m not being unreasonable, I’m just asking for a littlerespect. Not just for me, but for the general population of the school, ofcourse. If you want to walk like turtles with your little friends, go for it. I’mall for you being late to class. But why do you have to do it RIGHT IN THEMIDDLE OF THE HALLWAY!? There is thirty feet of empty space in front of you,and about fifteen people blocked behind you and your stupid pals there whileyou goof off!
You don’t have to walk fast, but oh, I don’t know. MOVEOVER!
I know what you’re thinking. “Go around?” But you see, thereis no room. In my school, three guys can take up the whole hallway, wall towall. This is extremely inconvenient considering my school has 1600 people init.
And my favorite is when people text going down the stairs. There’salways that one person, who stands on the stairs replying to a text messagethat is “so important”. I just want to walk up to those people and say, “whyare you stopped twenty stairs from the bottom floor, texting? Why? What couldpossibly be so important that you can’t take those few steps to the last stair,and then take 2 steps away so that EVERYBODY ELSE can get wherever they’regoing without waiting 5 minutes on the stairs!?”
This is another one of those times when you can’t go aroundbecause there is a steady flow of people going up, and a massive group ofpeople TRYING to go down.
It wouldn’t be so bad if it was a once in a while situation,but no. It’s almost every day.
So people, if you're a slow walker... Please... Get out of the way...

He's not a prince, she's not a princess.
This morning I was doing my morning check of my Facebook news feed, when I came across a photo a friend of mine posted. I love it when this happens, because pictures amuse me - they're usually funny. But this one just irritated me.
On the photo it said something along the lines of "Girls think they deserve a prince, blah blah blah, but girls don't deserve a Disney prince if they don't look or act like a Disney princess."
Really?
The last time I checked, there isn't many girls that have eyes the size of golf balls, and hair that always falls perfectly no matter how hard or fast they're running. Take a guy who is feeling insecure one day, multiply it by seven billion, and that is how every girl feels every day.
Don't get me wrong, I think this whole "all guys are jerks, why even bother" charade is pathetic. Personally, I think the point of a relationship is finding someone that accepts you despite your faults and insecurities, and loving them the same way.
But that isn't the point.
To the ladies; guys aren't perfect. They never have been, and they never will be. They aren't going to be romantic every second of the day. Men were not put on Earth to satisfy your every need - but when you find someone that is right for you, that is what they're going to want to do. ALSO, most of the females complaining about guys are in middle school or high school. Do you honestly, I mean TRULY, expect to find your "soul mate" in high school? Nope. Last thing, us girls can be real assholes too.
To the gentlemen; stop complaining about being friend-zoned, grow a pair, and ask her out. If you're friends with her, it's likely she liked you at one point - pun unintended. Stop complaining about how girls are selfish and have unrealistic views of you, again, grow a pair, and do something sweet for her every once and a while. That doesn't mean you have to bring her flowers and chocolate every day, but maybe open a door, or pull out a chair. Nobody ever got friend-zoned for chivalry.
And to all you people who see it as it is; good on ya.
