I was just at drivers ed and we were up driving around the SU campus and some idiot almost ran into us. Well, obviously it wasn't a student. Before noon on a Friday?! Please!
Lexi, I'm with you there. I only got the meningitis shot (I had chicken pox when I was 4) because I got so freaked out by the ER episodes where someone had it and their feet turned black before they died. Unless a disease is that scary, no way am I suffering through a possibly-unnecessary immunization.
Argh! I was going to clean out my fishtank, I had the entire kitchen sink cleared out (an *extreme* rarity in my house) and all my stuff set up, but I went back downstairs for a few minutes to finish something up. My dad comes home, gets pissy about the fact that there's stuff in front of the stove/microwave- which he needs clear to create his 4-course lunch- and piles up everything in the sink. Then, when I get annoyed with him for being so oblivious, he starts yelling at me for not emptying the dishwasher and putting the other dirty dishes away so that the counter was clear. The counter being clear is *his* problem, not mine, but the sink being clear is my problem, not his. But instead of like, accepting that we just have different goals or whatever, my dad just yells at me for being lazy and not cleaning up everyone else's mess in the kitchen before daring concern myself with any personal tasks. Because god help us if *he* is inconvenienced.
