Lately work is getting to be a real stressor. I work 3 twelve hour shifts and am on call during the hours I am off on those three days. So time on fri, sat, and sun is hard to find.

So when I go into a store to buy something... anything and I get an attitude from a clerk... I wanna cause pain.

Anyway on my way home last night, I was tasked with getting my wife a bottle of coffee creamer. No big deal right? (I wanna cry) I stop at the only grocery store on the route to my house. There are only two bottles of coffee creamer and  they are out of date. I ask the clerk if by any chance there is any other place some may be found or if there are any "fresh" bottles not yet on the shelf. I think the fellow thought I was asking if his mother still offered blowjobs behind the store. Needless to say, I left with no creamer. I had to stop at the next convenience store and picked up many of the individual servings and told my wife she was now on her own.

The point is, I didn't let the issue go. I was pissed, not so much at lack of availability but the fuckstick that gave me a bad time because I asked him to vary his work routine.

So now that I am up earlier than I planned I thought does anyone else have moments of--I am going to kill them?

All I ask is the issues revolve around your day to day. No politics please.

Did you ever get the creamer? I have not slept in over 5 years worrying about this.

If I recall correctly, I stopped at a sheetz and pocketed a bunch of single servings.

Go ahead, call me a thief.

When people are so ensconced in their mewling, sycophantic little cliques, they don't even read each other's posts any more.

It's a clique thing. It's nothing to ever concern yourself with.

I don't buy it.  Linda Lovelace, not Marilyn Chambers, was in "Deep Throat." Since they got that wrong, how can I trust the veracity of anything else they say? Sheesh.

"The damaging information allowed Felt to pose as Deep Throat and to threaten the Nixon
presidency. Eventually Felt and Robert Bennett teamed up to become Deep Throat, named
for Marilyn Chambers, the pornographic film star of that era."

No friggin way I'm going to see that mess. Just like I refused to see the Ocean's 11 remake(s.) The original cannot be beat and I'm at a loss to understand why Hollywood can't come up with new plots or movies but must try to coat-tails on good stuff.)

ps: I understand that sometimes remakes work (I think the Sutherland "Invasion of the Body-Snatchers" was as good, or even better, than the original) and that, according to some study/theory  there are only 7 plots etc etc. But seriously.

Martin Scorcese should be beaten with sticks for an hour a day for that abominable remake of "Cape Fear."  Robert Mitchum is the one and only Max Cady, and conveyed more primal menace with one baleful look than De Niro accomplished with his cartoonish fundamentalist psycho schtick.

I once interviewed some people who lived in Savannah while the real Cape Fear was being shot.  They said Mitchum stayed in character both on and off the set - drinking and mean. 
I agree about that horrid remake.

He was probably out of sorts because he couldn't find any weed there in those days. He was a dedicated lifelong baker.

on CNN the other day, they reported about senseless police responses to people who were apprehended for committing crimes.... STOP COMMITTING CRIMES may possibly be a solid start to a potential solution.... when's the last time that solution was broadcast.... I await the responses about how people need to steal rape and murder because of the neighborhood they reside in or the depravity of our society. Just STOP COMMITTING CRIMES dammit...

I rather figured the obvious error was code for something.

People that post off-topic.

bonus recipe idea:

1 Part Non-dairy Coffee Creamer (by volume)
2 Parts Hot Water (by volume)
Flavored Syrup (or sugar free flavored syrup) To Taste.
optional Sugar (or sugar substitute) To Taste

Make as little or as much as you want, should keep for at least a week if not more in the fridge!

My house got hit by lightning last night.  My wife got a jolt from the plugged in tablet she was using bit was otherwise fine.  We checked on the kids and they were startled but okay.  There was no power and we went back to sleep.  I did thought power was out everywhere in our neighborhood.  I got up a couple of hours later and noticed lights on in the neighbors house. I went to our breaker panel and saw the main breaker and a half dozen others tripped.  I could reset all but the electronic c outlets in the living room.  I went into said living room and saw that the telephone was in four pieces and spread across the room.  I went out the front door and there is a trench a few feet long and several inches deep. The front of the house is covered in dirt.  At this point we have no internet or phone service to the house.  That will be a pain as I work from home. We have a little local phone company that does not work on weekends.  The tv works but the satellite box and our sound system does not.  I seem to sense a home owners insurance claim coming. That claim is at the heart of the annoyance.

[whoozit]

I knew it, insurance companies.

After the US Olympic basketball game yesterday, I was flipping through the channels when the batteries in the remote died.  Right on Keeping Up with the Kardashians. It took almost 5-minutes to find and replace the batteries while that inanity polluted my TV.  I could feel my brain shriveling.  It was worse than sNoory.

People who camp out for a store opening.  Especially a grocery store opening.

We had the Wegman's franchise recently open here.  People actually camped out overnight to be the first to get in.

I stopped at Walmart at 7:00 am this morning to pick up a few items.  The express checkout was closed so I headed for the only checkouts that were open - four self-serve checkouts.  Three of them were being used by Walmart employees.  Apparently they were buying groceries before heading home from the overnight shift.  That's fine.  No problem.

There were four checkouts and three of them.  Each of these fine Walmart employees must have exceeded 350 lbs each and wouldn't move their $&#^@ shopping carts so I could get by to use the one remaining self-checkout.  I said, "Excuse me, could you move your cart so I can get by?"  They just looked at me, scowled and went back to scanning their Ho Ho's, Twinkies and frozen TV dinners. 

Fucking idiots
