Don't Kiss the Bears

Why do people get upset when they get caught doing something they shouldn’t have been doing in the first place? Rather than saying

“It’s ok, I shouldn’t have been here doing what I was doing, so I won’t lash out at you” they tend to get surprised and say things like “What the fuck man? Why did you pick on me?” It seriously confuses me. What’s better is the people who assume that I am just trying to be a dick rather than to do my job.

Why do some people assume that if they don’t do what they are supposed to that someone (me) will pick up the pieces and do it all for them? Am I such a nice guy that I will try to save your job by doing it for you? NOOOO. Well maybe once or twice if I like you. Or if it’s easier for me to just do it for you than to fight you. But I also have this evil streak. I just might lead you along doing things for you until you expect it, then I will suddenly lead you up to a deadline, and push you off and let you take the fall for the project’s failure. Or maybe not because I’d have to try to fix it.

Why do I ask myself questions and then answer them?

Why am I listening to Down Under by Men At Work and trying to understand all the lyrics?

Why do people call tech support from the deep south and yell “thank god you speak English” when they get someone they think is in the US? I heard this so frequently it just became a joke, I would frequently answer with, “well one of us has to”… or “I’m sorry I don’t speak Welsh” and then we all get a good laugh when they ask “what’s Welch? Like the jelly?”

Why does the History channel repeat itself?

Here is a real story Utah is no 1 for internet porn. 5.47 subscriptions per 1000. Now I had a few thoughts on why that number is so high. First being, have you ever tried to buy porn in Utah? Seriously! You HAVE to go online or out of state. And second, why are so many people PAYING for porn online? Do they not realize how much you can get for FREE? Now in all seriousness this study found that the more “conservative” a state the higher the subscription rate. So we can easily point our fingers to the oppressive religious and political groups trying to white wash the world, and say SEE you are only making it worse! But we won’t, and why won’t we? Because they would only react and take away more of our porn, and we can’t let that happen.
