Latro, Ergo Sum #5

"I rant, therefore I am."

Lately I find myself becoming outraged by an unusually large number of things. Here is a partial list of things that outrage me:

1. People's egos preventing anything from getting done.
2. Actual, tangible bigotry.
3. Someone using "racism" as an excuse so they don't have to make their argument.
4. Politicians who lie and who are so arrogant that they don't care if we know they're lying.
5. Being forced to spend money on something I didn't think I'd have to spend money on.
6. Planned and designed obsolescence in electronics.
7. Cats who barf in unexpected places.
8. People who make my children's lives harder.
9. The high cost of razors.
10. Deceptive pricing in stores.
11. Not being able to compare apples to apples when shopping for insurance or investments.
12. Waitng 45 minutes after showing up on time for a doctor's appointment.
13. People who don't answer their phones.
14. Dealing with the consequences of getting old.
15. Not being good at something I used to be good at.
16. Waking up in the middle of the night and not being able to go back to sleep.
17. Grammar nazis.
18. Quizzes that cheat.
19. Sitting at the keyboard when the words won't come.
20. Having a million story ideas and realizing that most of them will never see daylight.
21. Having an idea for something that I have absolutely no clue how to execute.
22. Coming up with an original idea for something only to find out that other people have known about it for years.
23. When a celebrity says something incredibly stupid and I have no way to tell them how stupid they are.
24. Losing tools.
25. When things I used to like become things I don't like anymore.
26. Consistently bad service at a business I have to patronize.

Okay, that's enough for now.  As you were.
