Happy Festivus!
Let the Airing of Grievances begin! I have collected twenty-three of them, since Festivus is the 23rd.
It grieves me that:
1. It will be a very long time, if ever, until I shall again be able to see the nice pretty girl who worked with me at the pool last night and with whom I hit it off rather well.
2. There is a complete lack of snow here such as to cause one to shake his fist at the world, roll over, and go back to sleep, as I did this morning.
3. People take unserious things seriously and serious things too seriously.
4. I have to wait until Christmas morning to eat the toutierre my mom baked.
5. Keith Goldman may still have a bias against studs.
6. I was not able to get all the pieces for my project from the same store.
7. I have coworkers at my other job who stand around and talk instead of working.
8. People think one-word posts and number ratings in the BBC are acceptable.
9. People aren't doing enough to make our world better.
10. The Norwegian spiral lights and Russian pyramid haven't been outed as UFOs or some crazy new military tech.
11. I don't have enough time to do everything I want to do and the time I do have I manage poorly.
12. My sister has chosen to play the clarinet.
13. I don't want to do anything with my NaNoWriMo novel now.
14. The Internet can be used for evil as well as for good.
15. I still don't know which college I want to go to most.
16. I have to wait for all these awesome movies that are coming out next year.
17. People keep misappropriating the meaning of the word 'love.'
18. My mom thinks having a laptop on my lap will give me cancer.
19. See #1.
20. I can't think of any more grievances.
21. I forgot about Twilight until now.
22. Twilight has extended its insidious reach into our local economy such that businesses are now offering Twilight golf and Bella burgers.
23. Our society is slipping, and the Twilight 'phenomenon' is just one of the symptoms.
Also, apparently Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are set to play Thomson and Thompson. If you don't know who they are, go...um...do something productive with your time. Yes.
