I'll never understand... - Page 8

I don't understand why people get so annoyed when the elevator stops to let others get on/off. Believe me, when I pushed that "up" button I had no idea that you were already on the elevator, much less that your mission was of such urgency that stopping for me and my armload of mail could potentially lead to the destruction of the human race. I'm even more befuddled by your barely contained rage when the elevator I'm already on stops for you and -- HORRORS! -- my stop is before yours, again delaying your critical mission. If I could un-push my floor button I would.

I will never understand why people gripe about the size of a year end bonus. It is still more than you had yesterday, it is more than we got last year and it is still more than the company HAD to give you. You didn't work for the entire year? Be glad you are getting something, even if it is prorated. You aren't at top pay? Still be glad you have a job that is far above the minium wage and will eventually be at top pay to recieve the full amount of the bonus.

grrrr (found out about our annual Team Preformance Awards at work yesterday)

I'll never understand what animals are thinking. I'm forever curious about how well different animals preceive their world, what they really think of us, how their communication works. A random thought I have every once in a while is that along with being able to go back and witness and/or experience portions of my life over, I hope that when I die I get to understand animal consciousness.

I'll never understand why kids think that the "History of (insert vague subject here) will be available at a moment's notice when their report is due the next day.

I'll never understand why teachers don't get paid bigger salaries!

I liked Your Friends and Neighbors and Permanent Midnight, but loved him in Tenebaums the most. Stiller was funniest in his MTV short called Backstreet Boyzzzz with Andy Dick. That was funny stuff (at the time). I think they did it for an award show. :sigh: I feel like I've outgrown him. I have no great desire to see Meet the Fockers.

Which is really sad to me......damn. I need to go back over to MiceChat to my What Makes You Feel Old thread and whine.

I'll never get why people wear ugly clothes. Like old sweatshirts and old reverse fit, tapered leg bleached out jeans with a big ass and 1989 Keds. There should be a mass burning. A fashion bonfire of the inanities.

True, so true.

What do you mean by old sweatshirt? Dirty old, or classic old, and in good/decent condition?

Just curious. I do that with my tshirts.

Claire · 01-29-2005, 09:37 PM

Like these:

White sweatshirt, stone-washed tapered leg jeans....blue socks and old Keds, usually accompanied by a fanny pack. I was witness to this outfit today at the library and the term 'Ugly American' popped into my head. That particular outfit is repeated every second of every day throughout America (and at least once a week by my very own mother!), and I think we should all just say NO to this outfit.

I'll never understand why my credit card balance never goes down. (But I sure dig my new jeans.)
