Three rants in a row. Yea, I've been bottling up anger over this past month. I need to explode RIGHT NOW.
So, everything was going well today until I stumbled upon a letter addressed to me in our pile of mail.
It was from the MVA, saying that I have to take a driver improvement course before next month or have my liscense suspended.
I called the MVA immediately and explained to them that nothing had been written on my case summary regarding this, the judge had said nothing about it, and that the reason for my ticket was definitely too stupid to warrant a freaking driver improvement course.
She pretty much told me to quit b****ing and that there was nothing she could do about it, so I gave up questioning her.
But lets flashback, since I bet this is really confusing.
A week ago I went to traffic court and recieved a probation before judgement for a ticket I had recieved months ago when I "crossed private property to avoid traffic control device" (a.k.a., I was in the wrong place at the wrong time and didn't know it).
Nothing said by the judge, or on my case summary paper, mentioned anything about having to take a driving improvement program. I remember watching the several people before me at court being TOLD they had to take a driving improvement course. So I guess I'm one of the misfortunate people who they decide to send a surprise invitation to, just to test my extremely low level of patience.
And so I'm just sitting here, thinking...
What the f**k do I need to improve on!?
In court I admitted that at the time of the ticket I was a new driver and didn't know that the road was private property (NO ONE DOES, BECAUSE THERE IS NO SIGN SAYING SO!)...I was NOT speeding or driving recklessly! I was NOT endangering anyone! The only thing I needed improvement on is my eyesight, since I didn't see the cop car parked in plain view! So now, being able to admit my mistake and learn from it translates that I need a little extra help from the state to rub it in my face even more? Isn't that a little childish?
Oh yea, that's right-- I bet my life savings that this course is going to cost me some money. So in the end, it's all about making money. It's all buisness. -points invisible gun to her temple and fires-
Next two rants: retarded dog owners and why they need to die.
So, has everyone heard about the dog attack at Petsmart? Well, if you haven't, I can't find a good online article for it yet (it was just in todays paper), so I'll tell you what happened:
A lady who owned a bulldog, and a lady who owned a miniature collie were both in line at the Abindgon Petsmart. The owner of the collie asked if the bulldog was friendly, and the owner (read: stupid cunt) replied "yes".
So they let the dogs sniff each other. Well, bulldog goes Cujo on the collie, BITTING ITS BACK AND REFUSING TO LET GO. For...a few minutes. They couldn't get the bulldog to release it's bite. I don't know what the yelps of a dying collie sound like, but I'm sure it will be engraved into the memories of the witnesses for the rest of their lives.
After they FINALLY managed to free the collie, it was rushed to an animal hospital, where it died.
Alright, so let me get down to buisness.
The police report stated that the lady had owned that bulldog for...a week! Yea, I bet she REALLY knew that dog. She was PRETTY SURE it was friendly. My guess is that the dumb f**kwit didn't even bother socializing it before taking it out in public. Proper socializing is kind of CRUCIAL!
And now, the part that really makes my blood boil-- how they couldn't get the bulldog to release the bite.
What the hell were they doing!? Patting him on the head, saying "c'mon Cujo, time to let go now!" "Bad boy, Cujo! Bad boy, no bite!"
KICK THE f**kING DOG, FOR CHRIST SAKE! STAB IT WITH A PEN! GET ONE OF THOSE GODZILLA-SIZED RAWHIDES FROM ISLE 2 AND SMASH HIS LEGS OUT FROM UNDER HIM! KICK HIM IN THE ASS! THIS IS NO TIME TO BE A PUSSY! NO TIME TO BE AFRAID OF WHAT THOSE MORONS AT PETA WILL SAY IF YOU HULK SMASH THE LITTLE s***! I've been in that particular Petsmart, and I know for a fact that they have Nylabones big enough to clock the b**** out! It just SUNK ITS TEETH into another dog and REFUSED TO LET GO, and no one resorted to something possibly equal in violence and pain to make that dog actually REACT?
And after the incident is over, the bulldog and owner walk away with a CITATION. A CITATION!
I'm glad they didn't put the name of the owner of that bulldog in the paper, because I'd go there right now and euthanize him myself. He killed once, he can kill again, and natural instincts like that are not so easily trained out of a dog, especially a bulldog, especially a dog thats already fully grown and content with those instincsts, since it has pitbull ancestry. And since we already know that the owner is mentally challenged, I doubt she can do anything useful.
Well, that was fun. Now lets move on to my next explosion.
ALSO about Petsmart! Go figure.
A week ago I went there to get more food for my puppy. My father had told me to take her collar with me and to pick out a choker chain, since it was a whole month into her training and she was still very disobedient on walks (that's an underestimate, she goes bats*** insane on walks).
I'm picking out a collar and I say outloud to my mother something about a good size for a puppy. Well, a worker overhears me and chimes in: "oh, those are DEFINITELY not reccomended for a puppy! It's too cruel, it will scar them for life!"
If I hadn't been so taken aback by her unpredicted and unwanted comment on a question I had not even directed at her, I would have argued with her, but I didn't bother.
First of all, It's perfectly fine to use a choker collar on a puppy. Want to know WHY so many people think that it isn't?
RETARDED DOG OWNERS WHO DON'T KNOW HOW TO PUT IT ON THE RIGHT WAY SO THAT IT DOES WHAT IT'S SUPPOSED TO DO! MORONS WHO THINK IT'S JUST THERE TO GAG THE DOG WHEN IT TUGS ON THE LEASH! IDIOTS WHO DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW IMPORTANT THE SOUND THE CHAIN MAKES IS! DUMBASSES, DUMBASSES, DUMBASSES!
Just like in art, it's not the tool, it's the ARTIST! It's not the choker chain, it's the TRAINER! WHY ARE PEOPLE SUCH MORONS?
A knife can be used for murder just as well as it can be used to cut up a steak, but that depends on the person holding it, doesn't it?
/End Rant.
(...Oh, by the way, how is everyone?)
