Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe. - Albert Einstein

Nothing Worse...

There's a commercial playing on TV right now hyping the convenience of online postage.  A guy in the ad says, "There's nothing worse than waiting in line at the post office."  Really?  Nothing worse, huh?  How about herpes?  That's worse.  Or maybe finding out your wife's been cheating on you with your fatter, uglier best friend.  An IRS audit is worse.  A hangnail is worse.  Waiting in line for a ride at Disney World in high heat and ass-wilting humidity with a brood of screaming kids is worse.  Getting murdered by a psycho in a bunny mask is worse.  Road construction is worse.  A rogue comet slamming into the earth is worse.  Heck, even burning the roof of your mouth on too hot pizza is worse.  There are a million and one things worse than waiting in line at the post office...and watching stupid TV commercials is one of them.

  1. Where the heck have you been?
    I love walking in to my post office & having interaction with the people who work there. If there's a line, it moves quickly. And I appreciate that it's still an option. Yeah I'm a hold-out to the fast-moving technology in our lives today. Thanks for speaking up on this.

  2. Thanks for your comment. I've been dealing with a family illness the last few months and haven't been able to concentrate on this blog very much. I do plan on writing about some of the unbelievable stupidity I encountered with our local hospital. Nearly criminal stupidity.
