Does yer Dad ever say "Why don't you get a job doin' that?", and ya wanna snap back, "I keep asking employers the same *&^%$#@! thing!"

Nah, anymore my dad plays mind games with me by not playing mind games but making it seem like he is, so I am left off balance wondering. Like I am still not sure if he actually wants to buy the building instead of renegotiating the expiring lease, but I have to proceed like it's a real thing, in case it is. If he's been messing with me I might buy the building myself just to raise his rent and complain to him with official-looking notices about random things, while half-plying the toilet paper like Dwight Schute did.
What does not kill me makes me stranger.

People who ask questions and, when you give an answer, they immediately say something contrary, disbelieving, or sarcastic. 

ex, "Are you gonna do that again?"
"No, definitely not."
"Oh, you'll do it again, knowing you!"

It's like, "If you don't believe my answer, why did you bother asking me the question?"

On another site a friend of mine posted a bad review of SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION. A stranger came along and called her an "idiot." I don't get being that insecure that you are threatened that not everyone likes exactly the same entertainment you do.

Won't You Be My Neighbor?

A show I didn't grow up with or ever heard of before. Even though the documentary is well made it didn't push any buttons or peaked any kind interest in the show. I guess it is naturally that I don't "get" this? I'm not judging or condemning, just saying this didn't work for me at all.
I think a documentary about people on the internet sobbing with nostalgia over this would be more interesting  :wink:

This current obsession with improv.
I just don't see it as acting.
I don't care how much people say about how it's good for actors, it's doesn't teach you how to memorize a script.

I just don't see why nobody wants to act anymore.

How so many people can be shocked that trump's tax plan raised their taxes while cutting taxes on billionaires. People like me told them repeatedly this is exactly what his tax plan was going to do and they just called us "libtards" and ignored us.

Now their squealing about it.

Morons.

Well, technically, the squealing does belong to them.  :wink:

People who keep big f**king snakes as pets.
I remember when I was in upstate NY in 1979, and I was at this guys house, and this big f**king snake was in the corner.
I thought, "Cool! A big rubber snake!".
So I'm talking with this guy, I look to my left, this big f**king snake is right close and staring at me.
I about s**t my pants. I left, man.

Why all work isn't done by robots while we live lives of unbridled luxury.
Hail to thyself
For I am my own master
I am my own god
I require no shepherd
For I am no sheep.

I think this will actually happen in the future. I predict humans will be incredibly bored.
