My Easter was spent at work, moving bags of dog food around all day. This now makes every single holiday I've spent this year (starting from Christmas because I don't consider New Years a real holiday) working, from Christamas Eve, New Years Eve and now Easter. And you know what, fuckers? I don't get fucking time-and-a-half because corporate are a bunch of chodes. My sister worked at CVS today. which NEVER closes (if there were a nuclear holocaust and everything was annihilated, there'd be an open CVS), and of course she got time-and-a-half, but nooo, not me.
Some guy who decided it was fun to drive really slowly and not use his blinker got really pissed off at me while I was driving home from work tonight. I swerved around him into the turning lane from the left-hand lane that he was straddling with his fucking Jeep Jackoff or whatever the hell they're called. He flipped me off and I waved. He tried to start screaming at me but he was too far away and all I saw was this little red monkeyface sticking out of a Jeep in my rearview making no noise at all. It was so funny. I love it when people think that yelling at other cars will actually make some kind of difference. You either run them off the road a la Clockwork Orange or you just shut up and take it. Anything else is just dumb.
But that was funny, his face looked like a baboon's ass. Some people really make me wish my car came equipped with turret guns.
WORD CORNER:
Today's word is a German word that goes once again to show you why foreign languages, including German of course, are better than the English language. The range of things that you can describe are much greater in German, and very much more so in languages like Japanese, Arabic and Greek.
Today's word is Gemtlichkeit, which is a feminine-gendered word that implies a few different things, all centering around a sense of general comfortableness and socialness. It specifically denotes a particular feeling of ease and good feelings one feels when one is, say, out at a bar with one's friends getting drunk and laughing at everything.
What a German word. God I love this language.
