Irritations

[c.d.]

Hello Herlock,

I am reminded of the story of Vlad the Impaler. Some dignitaries from another country came to see him. They were wearing hats. Vlad told them to take off their hats but they refused citing the customs of their country. So Vlad had their hats nailed to their heads.

You gotta like ole' Vlad. He knew how to get things done.

Ah, you mean morons.

Yep. They simply couldn't get it into their heads that they had to obey Florida law.

It was more because they thought since they were Canadian that Florida law didn't apply to them.

Speaking of handicapped parking -- I will always remember the time I was on the beach down in Florida. They take handicapped parking very seriously down there because of all the elderly people. Anyway, a car full of people pulls into a spot reserved for handicapped parking. A cop walks over and asks them if they are handicapped. They say no. He tells them this spot is reserved for handicapped persons only and they need to move their car. The driver tells the cop they are from Canada. He says great, welcome to the USA and the state of Florida but they are going to have to move. These ******** refused to move saying over and over again that they are from Canada. Finally, the very exasperated cop told them this is the last time I am telling you. Move your car now or you will be arrested and your car will be towed and impounded. They finally moved. I was hoping the cop would have busted some heads. What jerks.

People who park in handicapped parking spaces who are not actually handicapped. You have to be a real low life to do something like that.

people who have handicap parking tags, park in handi cap spot and then get out of their car and they are obviously not handicap. half tje people who have the tags dont deserve them, theyre scammers. probably scammed with false insurance claim to boot. my local strip mall you cant find parking every spot in front of tje stores is designated handicap. its bs.

then theres the back in parker idiots and the morons who dont use there turn signals.

Similarly, adverts for life insurance where we are informed that one's family will be well cared for in the event of one's untimely demise and everyone looks so happy about it.

There is a very popular ad for life insurance that runs all the time here in the U.S. They pitch the fact that there is no physical to take and you cannot be turned down for any reason. So all these poor schmucks who are on life support and have fifteen minutes to live think hey I'll buy this insurance and my family will be covered after I am gone. Uh, not so fast. It turns out that it only pays off after several years from when you get it and then only pennies on the dollar for what you paid in premiums. Even worse there are celebrities endorsing it. Scumbags.

People who you see on mobility scooters who proceed to get off and walk around perfectly normally.

Plus…I’m convinced that some people have these just because they are too fat to walk.

Advertisements on tv which attempt to drive us all into depression. How many can they bombard us with….funeral planning, cancer, dementia, famine.

I don’t know if I’ve already mentioned this one….going into a pub and ordering a gin and tonic and getting it in a bowl containing so much ice that you could build an igloo.

That reminds me Pat…every single website where you have to ‘accept’ or ‘reject’ cookies before you proceed. It’s annoying. I always accept but I don’t know if that’s the right thing to do or not?

Games on cellphones (or mobiles) that cover the main screen with so many clickable ads it's hard to select what you want to do.
