Random Thoughts XVIII

1. I do not mind two liters if I am the only person drinking from it. Other people are too daft to be able to properly use a two liter. What the hell are they thinking when they put the cap back on. They just loosely place it on there enough to cover the hole. Do they not realize that the gas is still escaping! You have to place it on and twist vigorously!

2. I am constantly confused as a Mexican. I have gotten Mexican, Spanish, Italian, Greek, Turkish, Arab, Egyptian, Pakistani, Moroccan, Indian, Indonesian, and even Hawaiian before. Mexican is usually the predominant one. We usually go to this fruit stand in Chicago since the Mexican people have the best fruit. Everytime we go everyone just speaks Spanish to us. Instead of humoring them since I could speak it back, I just walk away. They have no right to assume!

3. What are the stipulations of calling back after a voicemail. I understand about calling back if they really need something, but often times everything that needed to be said was in the voicemail. Why do I need to call back then? Everything that we were going to talk about was said, so what am I supposed to do, call back and just have an conversation inundated with awkward pauses? I think not.

4. I cannot stand cars in about 50-60 degree weather when the sun is out. It is too chilly when driving to have the window down most times and still too chilly to have the AC on. It is too warm, however, to have the heat on. Instead the car somehow ends up baking with that 50-60 degree weather with that blasted sun, and I suffer.

5. People need to learn the proper methods of pulling in with cars. I cannot stand when a car pulls in and goes to far! Selfish bastards...getting my hopes up thinking I got a spot until I realize they royally messed that one up. Fail.

6. We went to this Indian restaurant the other day. Like usual, my people just struggle. We were meeting a friend there, so we said three people. The person had not arrived yet, but the man just took us to a table where there was another person. That person was in the restroom, but you can imagine how awkward it was when he came out and was like WTF. He was white too, so he was probably even more confused as to why some desis were sitting at his table.

7. What the hell is up with these drug commercials! I cannot stand them. They advertise, for example, for a nausea medicine for pregnant woman. They talk about the benefits, then drone on with a long list of side effects. "Side effects of this drug have been known to lead to severe cramps, diarhea, hypertension, cancer, and in some cases may cause miscarriages. WTF! Not only is it possible to make your stomach feel worse, but you may get cancer AND lose your baby. What moron is actually taking this medicine...
