    Going into a wall Mart and feeling I'm the only normal looking person in the store.


    Can we start a petition to rename it " derelict Mart" ?

    Spoiled brat customers that berate waitresses for fun.

    That ticks me off as a bystander, I was just at an Applebee’s and I was sitting across from a couple that looked to be their 60s. We had the same waitress who was probably still a high school or college student. They insulted her multiple times before ordering and when they finally ordered, the man changed his order on the poor girl 3 different times.

    Long story short when she brought their food out she had grabbed the wrong type of soup for him. He stormed out while his wife shoveled in her food like an animal. When she had finished eating she demanded that her husbands meal be taken off the bill! But as I left I saw her piling it into a take out box. I was thoroughly disgusted, and judging from their size and attitude I doubt this was the first time they had snagged a free meal. I left the girl an extra nice tip because she handled it really well and didn’t let it ruin her attitude when serving my table.

    There are few things more contemptuous than a person who gets off in making others look bad for sport. Psychopaths.

    People who feel the need to put their phone on speaker in a public place. I was in Discount Tire today getting my free rotation and a 65-ish woman and her browbeaten husband sat down across for me, whereupon she decided it was a good time to call her trash daughter and have a talk show worthy 30 minute drama and profanity filled conversation about back child support, lack of car seats, etc. This trash bag actually referred to herself as "Me-Maw" in the 3rd person at least 17 times. I finally looked at the husband and told him that if I wanted to listen to Maury Povitch I would change the channel on the TV in the corner. She actually told me to F off. The store manager told her to go outside if she was going to talk to his customers like that, which was actually very cool because I hate having to beat up old ladies. OK that last part's not true.

    I love beating up old ladies.

    Stopped by Home Depot this morning on the way to work. They were completely out of any #8 x 2" screws with a Phillips head. How on earth does any hardware store run out of that size screw? Everything is a freakin' star bolt. I hate star bolt heads on screws. Renders 90% of drill bits useless and the cheap star bolt drill bits in the box never last long enough to finish the work.

    Season hunters drive me nuts.....I'll explain.
    I have a fair amount of property and I let a bunch of ppl hunt with me on different occasions throughout the season. This time of the year is the most hectic though. I'm racing to get plowed disced dragged and planted. All while hanging sets and cutting trials. I call around before I go out every weekend and everyone's always busy.
    My answer is always the same
    "I don't need help killing deer, I need help now."
    Drives me Effin nuts

    I'd put an end to the free hunts if they never offer to help.

    My dad experienced something similar. His farm, all his hard work putting in food plots and stands. All my uncles and cousins would come out the night before rifle season opener and dad would cook up steaks and a full spread with beer and whiskey the likes of which you've never seen. They wouldn't help clean up after dinner, never even so much as offered. Throughout the year the never helped around the farm when asked. So when my grandma passed and he no longer had to worry about upsetting her he told them what he really thought of them. Needless to say, they don't come around during deer season anymore and the old man couldn't be happier.

    If you don't treat the area for ticks, flea, etc. your going to have them. I get one or two on me a year. Keep the timber clothes treated good, the yard and dog pen is treated with Tempo and Frontline for the dogs. Found one dead tick on the yard dog this year. Ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Your in the pound of cure area as you evidently don't believe in prevention.

    “ not responsible for...” signs. I was behind a gravel truck a few days and it had a sign on the back that said “not responsible for cracked windshields resulting from rocks coming from this vehicle” hmmmm yes you are, putting up a sign doesn’t give you a free pass dumb@ss.

    Sometimes I can be a real dummy... Decided to check my camera in shorts and crocs. So much poison ivy and itch weed. Lesson learned.

    That disappointing moment when you check your mineral site camera that’s been out for a month and only have 100 pics, 0 bucks, and find out the cam is too high.
