Sarcastic Bastard

it's thursday, which means that my anger at the world around me has been festering for 4 days now. society has always had a "me first" attitude, but lately it looks like it's degenerated to
"me only". you can see it everywhere: not holding doors for people, pushing and shoving to be first onto the train, and the list goes on. but today what's really pissing me off is the people who create their own spots in parking lots. people who don't want to walk an extra few steps decide to park in the middle of lanes, and block other people. not only is this a sign of arrogance, it is a sign of extreme laziness. now, don't get me wrong, i'm a lazy guy too, but every morning when i drive to the train station, i park in the further lot and walk for an extra minute. i have a number of reasons for doing this:
1) it gets me an extra bit of exercise
2) it saves a bit of gas by not driving around in circles trying to find a parking spot; i just take the first one i see
3) it's easier to get OUT of the parking lot when i return from work in the evening.

maybe i'm just a "big picture" thinker, instead of a "here and now" kinda guy. but it frustrates me to no end seeing asswipes get away with just about anything.

but at least it's unseasonably warm out today.
