Ideologues and public pools...

There are two things I want to talk about... well there are many things I want to talk about but these two are burning a hole in my pants.

Public Pools... I hate them. And I hate them for very few good reasons. First, I'm a fairly introverted person, so the idea of going swimming at a large communal pool is not my idea of fun. The water should not contain enough chlorine to burn your eyes the moment you walk into the room. Granted I know why there is so much chlorine in the water, and I thank god for it, but it very nearly kills me. The teenage lifeguards don't seem to realize that blowing a whistle in what is essentially an already defining echo chamber does in fact not get anyone's attention. It is especially not useful in getting the attention of young children breaking the rules. So, what comes next, the bull horn! yes they didn't respond to a whistle, so yelling into a bull horn inside an echo chamber will surely get the message across. Needless to say, it takes them at least 10 minutes before they walk the 5 feet to say, "stop that." Then i could go on about my dislike for teenagers, public locker rooms, but I won't. the fact of the matter is as long as I have kids, I shall suffer with going to the pool.

and secondly, Ideologues, they can seriously piss me off.
