S1E04: Did I say that out loud?
This might be a short post.
I just had to say these things.
Some people do really weird things that should just be eradicated from society.
#1 Mothers, stop giving your child's age in months after a year.
I can forgive the "18 month" because it is a socially accepted interval of age, but it is just obnoxious to say "15 month" or "20 month" or "26 month". Stop it. Please.
#2 Social Media videos where you use cards instead of your voice.
For heaven's sake. Stop.
First of all, you're not doing it for impact, you're just following a trend, and a dumb one.
I have seen a grand total of ONE video that used the card technique for effect, and it worked. Only that one time was I moved by the silence.
The rest of the time, it just forces the viewer to take 5 times as long to read something that doesn't even have "whoa" moment.
#3 Fidget Spinners
I saw an infant sucking on one.
'Nuf said.
#4 The Facebook status background colors
Tackiest thing FB has ever done.
#5 Don't go outside until you know where North is.
Seriously, if you are so direction-ally challenged that you don't know where the sun rises (I will forgive you if you are in a strange city), how do I know that you will even understand my directions when I say right and left? YOU SHOULD KNOW WHICH DIRECTION THE FREEWAY IS GOING!!!!!
Hint, if you ever want to understand a traffic report, you are also going to need to know the freeway direction.
For now, I'll stop.
Comment with the things that bother you!
