In which I feel as if I have no faith in humanity.\u00a0 I\u2019m not pompous enough to declare myself a metaphorical mister perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but I\u2019ll go as far as to say that things would be a lot better if there were more people that were a little bit more like me than what they typically are on a regular basis.\u00a0 I\u2019m amazed at how spineless, stupid, lacking in common sense, oblivious or all of the above, people sometimes are, and today is one of those days in which I can\u2019t seem to get away from any of these metaphorical life ballasts that make my faith in people dwindle even lower than it sometimes gets.<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s always like this snowball effect too, because it always starts very innocuously, but as they day progresses, I continue to see more and more stupidity, and then my morale towards the human race dips to where I get saddened by it, and then I become irritable.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

From shitty cab drivers clogging up the roads and people who don\u2019t understand the meaning of a blinking yellow traffic light.\u00a0 Retards in the parking deck who walk too slow and are too fat to go around.\u00a0 Project managers who let the end client walk over them, and would probably think twice really hard if only they knew how much a real agency would charge them for the sheer number of corrections they request on a project still active from\u00a0back in November<\/em>.\u00a0 The Korean men in the building that spend all day smoking next to the main entrance, or taking the middle urinal in the men\u2019s room and talking way too loudly on the phone in the bathroom are depressing to my own heritage.<\/span><\/p>\n

But then there\u2019s the internet \u2013\u00a0 I take shit every now and then for not being hip to social networking and having a Facebook page, and although I have a hard time coming to a rational explanation, at the base of it, is this rationale.\u00a0 People are fucking idiots, and their everyday idiocy has the capability of putting me into foul moods, regularly.\u00a0 I don\u2019t want to be in foul moods and I don\u2019t like being in foul moods.\u00a0 Along with the bullshit I occasionally have to put up with while being out and about and while at work, to pile on the inane, worthless and putrid garbage that people over the internet are contributing, I\u2019d probably have jumped off a cliff by now.\u00a0 Ignorance and avoidance goes a long way at keeping some semblance of sanity sometimes, but who am I kidding \u2013 I like to surf and sniff around the interwebs on a regular basis.\u00a0 But that unfortunately puts me in a virtual environment where I can see the stupidity and bullshit of people on a grander scale, which on a day like today, I seemed to have unsuccessfully been incapable of avoiding it.<\/span><\/p>\n

I wish I could say that this mood will improve once I get to the gym and get some endorphins pumping, and some adrenaline coursing through my veins.\u00a0 But as much as I\u2019m enjoying the fact that I\u2019m getting to work out on a regular basis, there\u2019s no denying that my gym is kind of obnoxious.\u00a0 From asshole Georgia Tech students walking on treadmills while chatting on their iPhones, to all the meatheads that don\u2019t wipe down machines or put weights back, and the lackadaisical staff that doesn\u2019t do anything about it, it\u2019s hardly a place where I can\u2019t not notice more idiocy among people.<\/span><\/p>\n

I just want to go home, at this point, close myself out to the rest of the world, and not even play LoL either.\u00a0 Just watch wrestling or\u00a0The Walking Dead<\/em>, punt and go to sleep, and just hope tomorrow is better.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
