the trivial complaints thread

Went to the park to fish the creek and catch a couple trout for dinner. I rarely have time to myself to fish the creek during the week so I was stupid excited.

A group of full grown adult idiots were swimming and throwing rocks in my favorite spot. Not only were they drinking (no alcohol in the park), but there are 3 signs within eyesight that say "no swimming". If I wasn't solo, I would have said something.

Go to my second favorite spot, kids smoking cigars and throwing rocks. Ok, go ahead. I know what it was like being a teenager.

So I walk 4 or 500 meters downstream and find broken glass bottles and beer cans all along the way. No respect.

Top that off with losing 5 trout on a new pole and snagging a submerged branch and not having any spare fluorocarbon leader line.


Pretty hard to avoid poop like that on public land.

How do they expect people not to blow out o rings and couplers when they send couplers that don't even allow to o ring to seat?

Sitting in. A cornfield waiting for doves and none are coming. Hungry and pissed off.
Good reason why I like fishing. Even if they not biting the scenery is usually enough to allow me to enjoy the day. Good luck amigo. Shoot a corn snake...

On second thought don't, those suckers eat rodents.

Today at lunch my boss:
Commiserated about the fact that his dad is about to turn 80, and can barely walk 70 yards without having to stop and rest.


Then 10 minutes later proceeded to bitch about:
A old guy walking "too fc%king slow" in a parking lot impeeding my boss from parking at the closest parking spot for every bit of 2 seconds.
An old woman who was driving "too fc%king slow getting onto the freeway" for which he said he wants "a bazooka mounted to the front of his truck for people like that"

And i'm like....

In addition (although unrelated to old people) during our lunch hour he explained how much he "fc%king hates" that it takes one whole minute to pay for gas at the pump. He's actually upset that he has to tell the pump he doesn't want a car wash. Because obviously that's time that he could spend in the truck, telling me about other minor inconveniences that he "fc%king hates" that the rest of the world manages to not even notice or be concerned with.

He "fc%king hates" people on motorcycles who protect their lane when someone passes them in an adjacent lane.

All these things "drive him fc%king crazy"


I'm sitting in the front seat like

Unfortunately this is a common occurrence.

So when people ask me why in the world I would want to leave my cushy job...

Baked myself in the hot sun all day before class and paid 20 bucks to use field to take two shots. Worst dove opener i have ever had. Didint get to stick around to when the birds get flying because i had to drive back to town for night class. I need to hurry up and get this degree done so i can spend more time blasting birds.
 
Had my first, "OMFG, I'm gonna crap myself if I don't find a toilet within the next 30 seconds".

Thankgahd I was near a public park.

I eat all kinds of stuff; never ever happened before. I was working all day and only had a cliff bar and a handful of almonds.

Weird.

I have a set. They don't work as well as wearing earplugs. And then you kill you ears with loud music to drown out the engine noise.

I'm hoping to still have my hearing when I get to my 50's and 60's
