You know, I guess it would be okay to be mad about having to work today when most businesses are closed for President’s Day. I mean, I wouldn’t complain if I could have slept in today. But at the same time, I’m really not upset at all that I’m at work, as I think President’s Day is the most bullshit of national holidays. Did we just invent this because we couldn’t think of a good reason to take a day off between New Years and Easter? Are we so lazy as a society that we have to pull holidays out of our asses just so we can have a day off work? Just call in sick, you lazy bastards. Don’t invent holidays. Irritating.
It snowed this morning. Not even an inch. I saw three accidents on my way to work. I heard on the radio that there were like 60 wrecks on the interstate. Seriously? You guys can’t even drive in less than an inch of snow? You know what, I’ve lived here my whole life and never really driven in snow. Yet somehow the powers of common sense and logic combine to tell me not to slam on my brakes, ride anyone’s asses, or speed when the road is icy. I’m sure plenty of them deserve those wrecks. The rest of the poor suckers that were innocently struck… sucks, huh? Shouldn’t you have had today off, anyway? It’s President’s Day, you know.
That’s it.
