Ok, so I was driving back home from work today and as I approached my final turn I notice a girl waiting for the bus. She was probably around the age of 18 or 19. But what really caught my attention was the fact that she was sitting on the curb in quite a relaxed position, stretching her legs out into the road. This of course was on a major road in rush hour mind you. Fucking stupid inconsiderate bitch. While she's off feeling sorry for herself, contiplating a law suit, or just being retarted, everyone in the outside lane is slamming on their brakes to avoid missing her. what really gets me is that if someone did hit her, she would be able to sue them (being if she lived) for tramua shit. And thanks to Florida law stating that pedestrians ALWAYS have the right-of-way, she would collect. The thing is that she had basically a "down" look to her... She looked as if she had been thrown out of her appartment, been dumped, lost all her money, went back home to her parents for help just to be beaten with a broomstick, and then pooped her pants. And with all likelyhood anything was farther from the truth.
Given people go through tough times and people get down. But you need to grin and bear it. If not, if things are just "so terrible" that you can't bear it anymore and anything besides feeling sorry for yourself becomes to great, then at least don't put your tragedy on someone elses conscience. Go jump off a bridge or "break from the norm" and find some creative way to off yourself. But don't try tricking someone else into doing your dirty work for you.
But then again... it was probably someone just being stupid. Which then again pisses me off because its people like this curb lounger that employs anal rententive lawmakers, which create more and more laws everyday to protect people from themselves. Oh I'm sure there is a law written somewhere that restricts people from sitting on curbs on main throughways... but damn if Johny Law is going to pick up on that one. They're too busy writting tickets for different colored lights and aftermarket parts on "racey cars."
That is all.
