Stupid Sucks!

One of my pet peeves is drivers texting and talking on their cell phones while driving. I’ve ridden with friends or family whose been in near accidents because they absolutely must answer their phone or because they’re on their phone and not concentrating on operating their large moving death trap.

Is it really that hard to pick up a hands free device or just wait until you get to your destination? So to all my friends, family and visitors–get off your damn cell phones while driving! Why? Because this could be you.

Today I have the pleasure of presenting to you a prime example of why stupidity sucks. I’m sure you’ve all heard of this wonderful company, Microsoft.

Microsoft is the brilliant company that produced Internet Explorer, the nightmare of developers everywhere. They recently released Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) into the wild, a much improved browser from the utter crap they’ve previously produced and yet a total joke amongst other browser contenders.

They’ve really been pushing IE8 but their latest circus show really takes the cake in terms of complete stupidity – Microsoft’s Browser comparison chart

Well, I haven’t posted in the “Angry Posts” section for awhile now but I figured this was a good reason to. A good friend of mine sent me the following email.

Recently Michelle Obama went to serve food to the homeless at a government funded soup kitchen.

Cost of a bowl of soup at homeless shelter: $0.00

Having Michelle Obama serve you your soup: $0.00

Snapping a picture of a homeless person who is receiving a government funded meal while taking a picture of the first lady using his $500 Black Berry cell phone: Priceless

How does a homeless person afford a blackberry or even yet cell phone service Is it also government funded? Oh yeah, that is why you and I are working!

I’m all for helping people who need help but I’m not for helping people who are just freeloaders. Also, I think it’s great to see people like Michelle Obama helping people like this but I can’t help but think that she could be using her position for much more good than this.

Son of a bitch! (pardon my language) So it’s some big deal that Oprah is now on Twitter. I mean, people are acting like Jesus just showed up on the scene or something. You know what this means for Twitter and the real users of Twitter? A mass takeover by the technology illiterate soccer mom clan.

No offense, I hear Oprah is pretty cool beans and all that but it’s people like her that are evolving Twitter into some sort of popularity beast focused on who’s following who and how many followers you have. I suppose this happens with all new social media avenues but it’s still unfortunate. read more…

Ok, I’d say I’m WAAYYYYY past due for a rant about stupid people. I mean, that was the original intention of this blog. Today’s stupid topic? Driving… specifically snow drivers.

It’s not that hard to drive in snow. It’s not that hard to be a courteous, responsible and safe driver either. Especially in these kind of conditions. However, in a town filled with college students, you would expect lots of bad drivers everywhere… and, there are. Except that most of the college students have left for x-mas break. read more…

If you haven’t heard already, a Wal-Mart employee was trampled to DEATH this morning in NY. The customers literally broke the doors down and trampled the employee. Another woman was knocked down and later had a miscarriage.

Many people knew the employee had been killed and they just wanted to keep shopping. It makes me sick that people like this are out there in such large numbers. They should each be charged with the murder of both this employee and the miscarriage. read more…
