hot DOG

I'm not feeling particularly misanthropic today. I think I'm too tired for misanthropy? All of this naughty eating is taking away my will to live!

Today, though, my annoyance is the folks who are obsessed with their own dogs and then severely mean to other people's dogs. hahahah! What is up with that?Obviously, it's just as funny as it is annoying, but still annoying nonetheless.

This one time PJ (pre-julia) we went to the DP (dog park) and took BW (bowski with) us. This lady comes to the DOG PARK (gotta expect other dogs are gonna be there, right?) with her dog, and angrily picks him up any time another dog came over to socialize. Of course, bowski repeatedly missed the memo that, though this owner had brought her dog to the dp, she would get very angry to the point of kicking when another dog came round. Finally they stormed out.

I guess it's pretty typical to think your dog is way cooler than everyone else's dogs. BUT, if you actually dislike other dogs instead of simply preferring your own, maybe it's best to avoid the dog park.

ironically, that wasnt even ironic!

it's one thing when peeps keep their language simple and uncomplicated- i like that actually. good people. the problem develops when they start to try and tackle phrases that they know not of.
today, the specific word that vexes me is "ironically". "ironic" means "contrary to plan"...such as, "ironically, bobby lost money even though he planned the financial plan".
some people just use it in a sentence because they think it makes the sentence sound better. "ironically," they say, "i wanted a sandwich for lunch.". or, "ironically, i like pickles." ummm these things are NOT ironic.

ironically, this sentence is not ironical.

guest etiquette

here are some rules i think you should abide by if you have guests come to your home:

(1) probably not a good idea to ignore knocks on the front door. it's a strong possibility that this knock is signifying your arriving guests. do NOT under any circumstances stay in the kitchen and talk about your disgusting bacon green beans you intend to serve with your spouse.

(2)whatever, i hate everyone.

The 130 Diner

If you opened a diner on a road called Rt 130, how much less original do you think you could get than naming your diner the "RT 130 Diner"? Mark and I were in Dunkin Donuts across the street and I was upset about it for quite some time. Just look around, man. Any word...I'm looking at this homepage for blogging and I see several better choices: The Layout Diner, The Setting Diner, the Diner Post....seriously. I guess they get business anyway, but if they're looking for passing-through patrons, a cheap sign for "the 130 Diner" would definitely NOT draw my service.
LAME.
