A few observations this weekend...

Found out this morning that Steve Irwin, better known as the Crocodile Hunter, lost his life today from a freak encounter with a stingray. I guess he was doing something he loved, but it's a shame that he leaves his wife and kids behind witout a husband and father. Some say he was crazy to do the stuff he did with the crocs and snakes..either way it made good TV and he made learning about that stuff somewhat interesting.

I have to comment about a couple of things I saw today that just blew my mind and leaves me thinking WTF (WHAT THE F#$K)!!!

The wife had to do some errands and really wasn't in the mood to leave the house, so I told her I'd tag along. It was a rainy day today while in the car, I saw two guys on sportbikes sitting at a light. At this point it was just wet out, not raining. You'd think these guys would at least "gear up" for this kinda of weather. Nope... not at all. I think they both had jackets, but the things that caught my eye were above their shoulders. Both were wearing knit skull caps and friggin goggles over their eyes. WTF?? Ummm...yeah, you guys are both retards.

We ended up going to Bed Bath & Beyond (yes, this is how nice a guy I am...to tag along to this place) because she had to get some crap off a wedding registry for a co-worker. We got through the line ok and they offered to gift wrap the stuff for us at no cost. Sure, what the heck. Bad decision..it took close to 15 minutes. AACK! "Get me outta here!!!!!, " I shouted inside my head.

While waiting another person approached the counter to get something wrapped also. She said to the clerk, "Can I have this off the box?" The clerk looked back at her with a confused look. ".. I need it for the rebate."

Oh my friggin god... are you KIDDING ME??? You cheap bitch! If you're gonna keep the UPC tag, at least wrap the gift yourself you stupid bastard!

This reminds me of my own wedding - someone got us a $20 item that we registered for (from BB&B) and right on the box it said in large lettering "$10 REBATE!" Sure enough, there was a square cut hole on the side of the box. I'm sorry, but THAT is being a cheap-ass.

I know I sound angry... I'm not going to deny it. If you think I'm angry - watch this clip from National Lampoon's Favorite Deadly Sins with the Diceman...

(Not safe for work due to language, what a surprise)
