things should be simple. complications are bad.
my top 5 of
things that complicate life are...
1) Members of the opposite sex (or if not heterosexual, members of the same sex)- make no mistake, this easily beats out all other contenders. Relationships are time bombs (after time...), landmines (one wrong step...), surface to air missiles (you're flying high, feeling good, then...), you get the point. Name one other thing that can cause such a range of emotions (love, lust, hate, friendship, anger, gratitude, desire, irritation, devotion, jealousy, etc). Even family doesn’t get this many (you’d better not be feeling lust towards any of your family members because that's sick).
2) Idiots- they complicate life because there are just so damn many of them and they screw everything up. the reason birth control was invented was to prevent thier breeding, unfortunatly they have still not figured out how to use it.
3) Family- love ‘em or hate ‘em, they can inadvertently cause you to feel guilty etc.
You may love them, but sometimes they just need to disappear for awhile.
4) School- does this really need much elaboration? Life is going so well, then bam! Test time, paper due, surprise project, group work.
5) Work- you have to make money. For most of us that means that you need a job (screw all those who are riding on their rich parents accomplishments, show us your worth and do something yourself). Jobs, esp. for those of us who are younger, means having a boss. Most low level bosses have the IQ of a quart of ketchup (this is about equal to Bush jr. or a little above Anna Nicole Smith) and are as hungry for power as a cop is for doughnuts.
