I often wonder those same things myself Teach but the biggest one that gets me is why people think that the rule (whatever it may be) doesn't apply to them. What are you special or something?????

Irritated...think I need to go destroy something...using firepower...wish I had a cannon...that would make me smile...of course i couldn't have chickens then cuz i would spend all my money on getting things to shoot with said cannon...like cars, buildings, stacks of watermelons and pumpkins
Those non rule followers are usually the first to holler when things aren't fair! Come here and let me help you understand why you aren't a fish....sorry...
chickens...at least they understand a foot to the rump means stop
I put a new little pullet in with the flock...big roo fell in love way too fast! About got him stuck in the netting but he left her alone! I have a bany roo that really thinks he is tough. I can stick my foot at him and he attacks it. My bro thought that was funny so he went over to play...the roo looked at his foot and ran! the lesson here is find a bigger foot to teach the lesson...

And my observation from having visited thousands of schools in my day is that teachers are the worst about it.
Present company excluded, of course.
Rules...what rules...I can't break the law....I AM THE LAW!!!! Yo soy la ley!
The problem yuo usually find with folks that have to enforce and make rules (like teachers) is that we tend to get irritated at dumb rules...for instance...I gotta turn in a portfolio for my grad work...it is useless. I have a job...once a person has a position folks want to know about that...not what you did in school! I have a rule about no food and stuff in my room...I break it...I have the it is behind my desk exception...I don't spill stuff on the desks...they do....plus animals pooped there...I forgot to clean...not my desk...no animals poops there! Plus I clean it! Buster....I am quilty...please ground me to my room...I could use the alone time...

Hey Roy,
I have a buddy who owns a cannon. He's one of these guys that dresses up and re-enacts civil war battles. He hauls that cannon all over the country to play war. Here in Lexington, we have our 89'er day festivities that include a "land run" across the river (it's really just a bunch of drunken cowboys on horseback) and they used to have him dress up in his union uniform and fire his cannon to start the race. I thought it was funny that, even in a re-enactment, we still had our 'sooners' who tried to cheat.
