Runny yolk is awesome. You have my sympathies.
Friendly PSA to all theatre-goers! Turn. Off. Your. Stinkin'. PHONE. No, I don't want to hear your ringtone going off during a a quiet, emotional scene.Please also do not let your 4 year old walk down the aisles alone (?!) so she can talk loudly during the climax of the production. And no, I'm not surprised an attendant told you both to get off the steps when you finally caught up to her, because you can't sit there during the performance.
Today's my birthday and I made plans to go to the mall with my sister and my best friend.Well, my best friend has bailed on me last minute. I still get to go with my sister but that kinda hurts :/
I'm getting really fed up with this stupid "internet language" you can't seem to avoid these days. Why can't they call anything by its real name? A dog can't be a dog, it's a "pupper" or a "woofer". A bird is a "birb". Cats are probably "cattos" or something equally stupid. For some reason it really irritates me. What's worse is when people start saying it in real life...
To be honest, I am annoyed by the proliferation of dogs in every space of modern life just generally.If people want dogs then that's fine, but I am so sick of seeing dogs that are clearly not any kind of support dog in cafes, in supermarkets (both places they are not allowed by the way) and basically everywhere. There;s even a thing to try and get dog friendly cinema screenings. Because of course dogs need to go see Toy Story 4?I hate dogs. I have always hated dogs, since being attacked by one as a kid. They freak the heck out of me. And while I know some are very well trained, my expectation is that someone who can't read signs or pay attention to rules regarding where dogs should be probably also don't care how their animals act.I also wish they would ban them from the top of buses. They're not man's best friend to me. They're my worst nightmare.Obviously, this isn't dogs who are actually needed as support dogs, guide dogs, etc, as they have proper training and mostly aren't a problem. But since you can now buy the jackets online and flat out lie about it to get your animal anywhere, it really is hard to tell.
Being a bit of a pedant and a stick-in-the-mud, needlessly making nouns into verbs annoys me as well, such as "gaming" and - the one that really gets my hackles up - adulting. We already have ways to convey these concepts, namely "playing games" and "being an adult". I can't imagine it's that hard for people to bust out an extra word or two in their day. Heck, it might even give their grey matter a bit of a workout!So I guess my complaint for the day is that I'm getting old.
