There are days that I don't even have the energy to complain about the things that bother me most. But, today is not one of those days...
PHARMACEUTICALS
She wrote me a prescription for something with aspartame in it. I am deathly allergic. I would have ended up violently sick in just one or two doses. Sweating, cold, hot, fever, hallucinating, hives, nausea & other fun things like that. Good times. Glad I saw the tiny little Nutrasweet logo on the side of the box before injesting.
(did I mention that I haven't told this doctor about my allergy? But still... lol)
And anyway, why the fuck would anyone in their fucking right mind make a medicine to help digestion with aspartame in it?!! Fucking duh! This company is totally moronic. Aspartame is very commonly known to irritate the lining of the stomach, intestines & bowels... fucking idiots.
(oh yeah, did I also mention that this med is used for lowering cholesterol too? But still... lol)
WALMART
Yes. I hate Walmart. I would like to poke it in the eye with a sharp hot stick then kick it in the groin. I would like to rip out it's very soul & eat it for lunch with a beer. Is that ok to say?
Anyway, I hate it. I hate that they taunt me with their great prices while forcing me to endure their horrificly stressful atmosphere to do it.
Every time, the same fucking deal. They have tvs blaring "Jesus Take The Wheel" 2 thousand times in a row. The speakers don't even work half the time & it isn't music so much as loud static with a bit of music coming out the background of the static. And, it is loud as FUCK! The tvs are shouting commercials at you. There is another set of music coming from other speakers softly somewhere too. Like from the back of the store.
I can't concentrate for fuck with all that constant in-your-face advertising & stupid county music. How am I suppose to choose the best paper towels under such circumstances? FUCK!
Plus, those fuckers are always yelling for Daryl to please come here & to please go there as loud as FUCK! And the worst speaker in our local store, the loudest one with the most static, is right above the migrain & headache medication section of the store. Fucking brilliant planning! Why didn't I think of that?!!!
And the pharmasists are all assholes.
Me: "Excuse me please, I have a question."
Him: "Ehk. Well, is it a HARD question?! Because, ehk, I'm kinda busy here you know!"
Me: *looks around at empty section of store* "Busy with what?"
Him: *rolls eyes in annoyance*
Every experience with this guy is him acting like a spoiled little drama teen. It is annoying.
(did I mention I have only talked to him twice? But still... lol.)
And the checker today, complaining that she thinks she is going to vomit... all while handling all my stuff with her virus hands! Blechk!
So, I decided today to take things into my own hands. To stop complaining & do something. So, I went today with earplugs stuffed deep inside my ears. Just to concentrate. Everyone else shopping doesn't seem to mind the futuristic commercialization going on here. They are numb to it or something. They all seemed... so... normal about it. I hate them all.
My discovery? Walmart with 35 dec. earplugs is still louder then Safeway & Fred Meyer with no ear plugs at all. That is crazy, baby!

So, why do you hate Walmart?

Every single thing about WalMart rips at my nerves. The noise, the horrible music, the employees forcing big fake smiles. Creepy.

I live in the pacific northwest. Please forgive my lack of specifics. It's tough to explain but I'll try. My journal is just that, a journal for my throughts, expressions and all the random stuff inbetween. Clearly our journals on SG aren't like "traditional" journals because others can read them, but at the same time I enjoy that it can be kept private from those in my immediate life. Lets me express the good, bad and that which I want to remember. It helps to write stuff down. Again, difficult for me to explain. Anyways...
