My neighbor runs a small motorcycle repair business out of his front yard - his 4X8 foot front yard. Our formerly quiet little street gets VERY noisy. I don't have an overall issue with it. He's industrious. He's obviously good at what he does and he's paying the bills. I've told him that, as long as he was cool about it, I wouldn't be the one to call the cops (or worse, the landlord.) He was grateful and decent about it and respectfully responds on the rare occasions when it gets to be too much.

For the most part, it works, but he has one idiot buddy who has zero regard for others. Case in point - I'm home, sick. The noise two nights ago was over-the-top. As I let the dog out one last time, I yelled out, "C'mon, guys, it's 10:00." That a-wipe buddy spent the next ten minutes revving his bike back and forth in front of my house as loudly as he could. It was so painful I ended up with a pillow over my head.

I'm not ready to call the cops on this fellow, yet. Mainly because he's been so good about things, but partly because I know that small-town boys' repercussions can be a real nuisance around here - but I'm practicing what I wish I had said now so I can word it more nicely when the actual moment comes starting with:

Hey Ash-hole. I have a REALLY big bag of sugar and I'm not afraid to use it.

To be back on topic then, I'm particularly frustrated by the consistent selfishness, rudeness and laziness of society today. Why does common courtesy not exist anymore?? Why do 90% of people you see at the store not care about anything but themselves? Why does good work ethic consist of "i arrive on time"??!
This is ridiculous!!
Ahem. Rant over.

And then there are those who replace "I arrive on time," with, "I'm here, aren't I?"

You are both correct and frustrating lol. I tend to have very poor sentence structure, even though I'm trying. But also in the virtual world it can be hard to remember to thoroughly check that what you meant to say is what typed out, your post being a hilarious example!
I tend to get frustrated with the acronyms. Just use real words! Some i understand and think arealright in moderation, like "lol", "DH" or "op" but honestly they annoy me even then.

Well, to finish off the hijack:

One time we visited another family. They were going to have the mashed potatoes that come in a box. Family size, no doubt.

We needed way more than two family sized boxes. We also spent the time we were supposed to make the potatoes laughing at the small size of box.

In the end, I wish I could say "family size" mashed potato boxes were a lot bigger.

Mashed potatoes with a large family does take some peeling time!

No, not sugar. Think of a word that starts with the same sound but would get her banned if she used it here.

I suspect I know the word, but sugar works as well. Invite the ants in.

I like it in the gas tank myself. Either sugar or…
