Tis the season to break bones

There must be something about a 4 day holiday weekends that causes people to O.D. on dumbass pills. On my way to work this morning I was stuck behind an SUV going 20 mph in a 40 mph zone. For at least 15 blocks. I didn't want to actually go to work today either, but driving that slow only prevents the inevitable.

And what was with all that carnage at the malls this weekend? Pushing, shoving, trampling; screaming, punching, grabbing. Please, it was a fucking laptop, no need to lose what little dignity you scrounged from your white trash upbringing for a super deal on a computer! Coincidence that there weren't reports of angry mobs and out of control fights at Neiman's? The only thing to give thanks for in this holiday season is that I had the sense to stay home and far away from the malls, all weekend and continuing through the season of giving. If you can't buy it online it's not worth giving.

Perhaps some of those shoppers should pick up an etiquette guide while they're at the mall. It's doubtful they'd be on sale, but them's the breaks.

I started fights at Wal-Mart just for fun, I wasn't even buying anything.
