Why was this the week for people to be assholes?
- Asshole number one: guy who said loudly on the subway "I don't think fat people should be allowed to ride the subway at rush hour because they take up all the fucking room!". Note to guy: Sorry, buddy, but YOUR FUCKING HOCKEY BAG IS BIGGER THAN MY ASS ANY DAY!
-Asshole number two: Woman carrying out complex token-buying exercise involving counting out stacks of pennies or something who yelled at my sister for standing politely behind her in line.
- Asshole number three: Pre-teen boy riding on stolen pink barbie-car while crying little girl and her irate father chased after him. OK, that one was slightly funny at first, but then he drove the barbie car into the curb and cracked the wheel and ran off leaving desolate crying little girl with broken barbie-car and I felt bad for her.
- Asshole number four: Guy in restaurant who ignored large sign in menu that the all-day breakfast was a set menu and yelled and walked out without paying for his coffee when they wouldn't make the change he wanted.
Sigh. Today I think I'm staying safely at home where the assholes can't get to me.
In the hopes of kick-starting my writing again I'm taking a life writing course at the local polytechnic. I may paste some bits of writing from that course here, though I fear that it will be self-absorbed and utter crap. I guess we'll see...
