some fuckin' people
Category: hassled by the man
This dude just tried passing me in the oncoming-traffic lane of Kenmore Ave. After he realized what an idiotic idea that was, at the next red light he got out of his car to yell at me. The light turned green as he was getting out of the car, and I was a block away before he managed to get back in and get his car back in drive.

Next red light I was not so lucky. Homeboy comes charging out of his car and starts slamming on my side window. Reassuring words from the passenger side: 'he's wearing a police badge...' Fine, I roll down the window. Homeboy starts howling about everything under the moon but I think all I did was give him a blank stare. Light turns green and he books down Kenmore 50mph.

Instant poll: DWI off-duty cop with a Napoleon complex? Or a flabby ex-gay-costume-stripper bitter about his long-past glory days?

This is why cops are so intolerable. They think that a badge is akin to some sort of royal seal that grants them all kinds of latitude in how to act when they AREN'T working.

Its too common to be funny anymore.

When I was growing up we were required to spend time in a simulator :::link::: learning how to effectively deal with such situations.

Trust me, we don't care. This means you, (e:james,38834)

[I found this ad on an article about the May postage rate increase. Apparently it's only the maverick alternative conservative media with the harbls to cover postage rate increases.]

The Liberal Media is totally keeping it a secret. Why else would Maureen Dowd be such a frigid little vixen?

I will admit I didn't look at all the pictures on that site but a lot of the ones I did look at are cute and funny.

The Twin Peaks Season 2 DVD is now finally shipping for those of you who already own Season 1. For boneheads like me who were waiting until Season 2 came out to buy both, Season 1 is totally sold out and is fetching around $100 on eBay. I asked some random dude about it and he said if you don't have Season 1 already he'd recommend waiting for the full box set in October.

james - 04/03/07 13:01
no shit.

I am about half way through season two right now. I downloaded a pirated version that has Swedish subtitles along the bottom. This, however, is much much better.

thanks for the heads up.

darn it, I was going to comment both on the pink headband and make a Donny Darko reference. Early bird and the worm and all that I guess.
joshua - 04/02/07 13:47
Haha - the bunny outfit is one thing, but did you really have to wear a matching pink headband? I still think its funny though.
leetee - 04/02/07 11:58
My lame ass was with my husband's lame ass in Hamilton, visiting my mom. We weren't able to see her on her 60th birthday about 2 weeks ago, so we went this weekend. The Queen City Roller girls need to check with our schedule from now on. This isn't the first time it's happened!

I like the pink headband on you. Good look. Nice bunny costume, too. I have an Eeyore costume that's big and fuzzy like that... maybe we can get together and scare some children together.
