The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Yeah. Sober. I know.
Huh.
I don't want to do any more work today. I won't either, if I can get people to cooperate.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Happy Birthday Tom!
The most annoyed I get at tourists is school groups where the teacher will tell the kids to gather at the bottom of the escalator or to get on the train and stay right by the door. (I've seen both of these happen, multiple times, with groups of more than ten kids.) And then they complain that people in the city are so rude because they get pushed. No, you're being rude by purposely having a large group of people block the way of several hundred commutors.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
In high school, my route back to the Metro from crew practice used to take me right past the tourist trolley, ALL of whom would have their cameras out and rolling. Who cares about the Kennedy Center on your left, there's a sweaty native girl down there!!

Oh! I've noticed people on those double-decker tour buses in NY taking pictures of me. Huh? I'm really not that interesting.

I always wonder how all the random tourists that have taken photos of or with me explain them to their friends and family later. "And here's that really strange Victorian Goth girl we saw in Seattle! We just HAD to get our photo taken with her!"

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
People, please remind me that I cannot change someone's mind who thinks that they know what it's like to be on the razor's edge of poverty because they have a large tax bill and therefore all poor people have to do is budget and sacrifice in order not to have to choose between groceries, bills and rent or their car insurance.
Do we really think that the majority of people who don't have liability don't have it because they are flauting the law?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
You cannot change that person's mind, DJ. A good stint of living outta their car might do the trick, but even then, people can be weirdly stubborn.

Compassionately intolerant
There is a woman STOPPED in the crosswalk blocking all traffic so she can take a picture of the Capitol.

And, by the way, could I please have your name and address to I can narc your tree branch pulling down ass to the park police so that they can send you that huge ticket? Cuz, you know what? Those gorgeous flowers that so overwhelmed you with their beauty that you absolutely could NOT allow them to stay in their natural habitat...the ones that would have lived on that tree for the rest of these kabillion people to enjoy? They'll be dead in half an hour you selfish berk.
Ahem. Sorry. It's a thing.
