I just got home from a nice din­ner with Aaron, Karen, and Chris. On the bus ride back, there was a woman sit­ting in front of me, who I couldn’t help but look at. I watched, the entire trip, as she peeled an orange, and threw all the skin and fibre on the floor. Then she would spit seeds into her hand and throw those on the floor too. It was one of the most repul­sive things I’ve ever seen. WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE.

I just stopped at Timmies before work this morn­ing, with a large triple triple in my hand, and a caramel pecan cookie in the other. I had to maneu­ver the cof­fee and cookie around because it was too hot to hold by its sides, and I did this as I was walk­ing out the door. Without think­ing, I let the door close behind me. As I step out­side, I hear a lady say, “Tanks for ‘old­ing the door” in a loud, grumpy, sar­cas­tic tone. I usu­ally hold the door open if I see some­one behind me, but I was still wak­ing up, I didn’t see her, and my mind was else­where. Normally, I would feel ter­ri­ble for being so incon­sid­er­ate, but I really didn’t feel bad at all after she said what she said. I actu­ally wished that the door slammed in her face, spilling her cof­fee all over her proudly worn blue Magic School Bus shirt, stain­ing it for­ever, and that she would slump in the door-frame, sob­bing, because it was the final gift from the debil­i­tated grand­daugh­ter she had just put in the ground. At least what I did was an acci­dent, one that I’m not prone to let hap­pen, but what she said I con­sider even more rude.

Trolley and I had this dis­cus­sion a lit­tle while ago. We both agree that it’s rude to keep a seat occu­pied with a bag on a busy bus, but it’s even more rude to walk up to a bagged seat, then com­plain loudly and rudely about the owner. There are ways of politely doing things that just make things go eas­ier for every­one. Interesting, how the first per­son to take the step in being polite is the one in con­trol, but few peo­ple actu­ally take the risk because they assume an unapolo­getic person.

Anyway, I need some cof­fee in me.

So go the fuck away.
