[Rant] Minor Rant III: For a Few Hollers More

I made this post, got hungry and ordered a pizza. In 10 minutes it's already here.

I'm DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMED.

They added extra pickled jalapenos to it because last time I told the driver I love the pickled jalapenos.

THEY REMEMBER I LIKED PICKLED JALAPENOS.

I'm dead.
 
So my buddy and I have been looking forward to Let's Be Cops since we first heard about it because we LOVE the two guys in it. He had to go out of town for a month so we didn't see it on opening day. He's back now, and I wanted to look up showtimes for tomorrow. I should have just done that and left well enough alone BUT NO. I HAD TO GO LOOK AT ROTTEN TOMATOES LIKE SOME KINDA BASTARD.

15%

BUT AS IF THAT WASN'T ENOUGH,

Lucy? That fucking "we use 10% of our brains BUT WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU USE MORE?!?" piece of shit has 65%.


oh and grumpy cat is going to get a tv special. Robin Williams is dead but grumpy cat is getting a tv special and if you put morgan freeman and scarlett johanson in something critics will line up around the block to suck the dick of the guy handing out tickets.
 
20 minutes into the broadcast the coach became so disgusted with the players' performance, that he's had them run drills. They've been jogging in place for 5 minutes. Boy does that make for some exciting radio.
I consider myself a very big football fan. I try to watch every Bills and Mizzou game as well as all of the big games with other teams. The outcome of games can and does have a notable effect on my attitude for at least the next week.


I have no fucking idea what it is with Texans and high school football.

Enjoy it...then exercise. :)

Honestly, it's the fun of it. You NEVER know what you will see. Crazy plays that actually work. Defensive stands that should have never worked. The fact that you have kids playing a game and enjoying the heck out of it, even though they don't have a chance at all to get anything but memories from it. That you can have a town of 35000 that brings 10000 to an away game, that is a 2 hour drive away.

It's Texas and we just enjoy the hell out of it.
 
You get the idea. People have been talking about how new music is worse than when they were kids forever. When you're young it's "those adults just don't understand!" When you're old it becomes "NOW music is really bad. Unlike when I was young."
What if you're young and think the current music sucks? 'Cause that was me in the 90s. The only music I listened to was Weird Al, making fun of the crap everyone else was listening to.

Maybe it's just American music that's tended to suck for the last 40 years.

I think you could sub "the south" for "texas" and you'd be fine. When my wife first moved to sc she was shocked. "People actually pay to go to a high school football game?" And "why are the high school stadiums so big?"

Well, when you're a kid, you define your personality based on what music you hate.

As you get older, or at least as I got older, I found I hated less and less music, and now there's still music I don't care for, but I can't say I hate any of it.

Except for modern country... fuck that shit.

I don't know about that. I just didn't hear anything I liked. Gravitated towards score music in movies, video games because of it. It wasn't until I turned 16 that someone online introduced me to Euro-metal and I was all ":sohappy: what is this beautiful sound i have never heard its like in all my days." And then in college I discovered what I affectionately call my "Dad's age" music like Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd. The Tori Amos concert last weekend got me in good spirits before the main show since the speakers were playing Led Zeppelin the whole time people were getting seated.

The only reason I don't hate music now is because I don't have to hear it. No radio, no cable = I only have to hear music I want, usually. The grocery store we used to go to seemed stuck in the 90s, because every time we went in they were blasting N-Sync, Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys. I talked to someone who's lived in this area since childhood and that was what the store played then, so it's not like they've always been years behind. Also, when my wife was on a Kesha kick. Thankfully that's been over for a while now.

I think one of the reasons I dread visiting my mom's house is because of that fucking country music. That has gotta be the worst shit I have ever heard.
 
I am an unhappy human being.
Been there man. I always have to remind myself that it passes eventually and there are too many people I don't want to disappoint and would miss if I was gone. No matter how shitty I feel, I take solace in knowing there are people who would be disappointed in me if I gave up. Plus, having seen it far too often (was home when my mother got the call about my uncle Tom and uncle Jon), I couldn't do that to anyone I loved. That memory is what keeps me from giving up with I feel at my worst.
 
Gah. Having a crappy day. Argument with the girlfriend over her pushing me to talk about an earlier argument about why I won't open up. Completely useless.
Now, you know how, when you're really angry and/or frustrated, especially with yourself, you might want to hit something? Right. Now, imagine someone, say, taking a pillow and putting that up against the wall so he can hit it a few times without hurting himself. Y'know, hold the pillow in one hand, punch with the other. It's not rocket science. Now, imagine that same pillow slipping out of that person's hand at the wrong time. Owie. Don't think it's broken, just a bit blue and swollen, but still. Most ridiculously idiotic way of hurting yourself ever.
And of course, that makes me even more angry and frustrated at myself, but I can't very well start hitting a wall for hurting my hand hitting a wall. I mean, him. Ahem.
 
My daughter was away at camp for the weekend. She gets back and the very first thing she does is yell at us for going grocery shopping without her. I have never been so close to slapping my child in public.
 
God damn it. In the strip mall that's like 2 blocks from my house, they just opened both a Papa Johns and a Fatburger.

How the fuck am I supposed to stay low sodium with no willpower and both of those monsters nearby?
Could be worse. They could have opened a Five Guys in that strip mall.
 
*drops monocle*

Speaking of hell, you sir, may go to it.
Still doesn't tell me why anyone would eat there. Bland, dry burger patties, soggy under-cooked fries, and generally underwhelming taste on everything that I've ever eaten from there.

5 Guys and In-and-Out are better, Mooyah! puts them to shame.

Some people would say I'm in hell, since I live in Texas.
 
Then you'd be sucking a whole lotta dick if you lived in my area. There's like four of them within a half hour of where I live.

All of you fast food fans should make a trip to TX for the best fast food chain ever: Whataburger.
