GET OVER IT
Warning:
This post may offend some, if you are offended its time to get over it.
The sky is falling
The sky is falling
Dude the Sky is FALLING.
I have heard all of the people claim the sky is falling for years now. They think the world is going to end because:
Obama was president- well we lived through 8 years of him and the world didn’t end.
Trump is president- Really this is a world is going to end, we survived many of bad, and good choices for this office over the years one more is not going to kill us.
Hillary didn’t win- Yes would be great to have a woman actually get elected to the office, for now that was not the one.
GET OVER IT….
They are building a pipeline – newsflash they have already built hundreds of them.
He wants to build a wall – Well lets see what really gets done, I have heard this wall talk before, been there, its mostly a fence.
We need to take away all the guns – Guns are not the problem, idiots with guns are.
We need free health care – Really, someone has to pay for it. Imagine your doctor coming to your business and asking you to give him your services for free.
GET OVER IT….
We need free college education – I have no college education, the best thing a young person can learn is if you want something make money and pay for it.
Hey can I get a discount – Have you noticed that most of the people who ask for a discount, usually never give one in their business.
They price of oil is falling- The prices of things have gone up and down as long as history has been here.
The price of gas is going up again – Yes it would be great to have the good old days of gas for a dollar but lets face it thats long gone.
GET OVER IT….
Global warming – This is by far the biggest over rated Sky is falling cry. Yes its happening but not as fast as you think.
The stock market is gonna crash – This is a serious one but its happened how many times in the history of the stock market?
We need a world that is “equal” – We have equality in the places that are needed, here in America anyway.
The cost of my beer is rising – dude inflation, prices are going to go up, by looking at the way you act maybe you could skip a beer or two this week.
GET OVER IT….
This post may offend some, but the truth is almost all of these things are not life threatening, we have become a world that lives in a plastic bubble its time to put on our big girl, or big boy panties on. When I see all the protests, and people doing things in the name of we need to fight the system it feels like an insult to call myself an american. We have so much rights and privileges in this world we live in and to go to the streets to protest to get more is worse that a toddler throwing a fit.
Its time to GET OVER IT. I have some real things that bother me in life, but like the story of the dog sitting on the porch just moaning, and groaning. When it bothers me enough ill get up and do something about it. Guess that is why im writing this blog post today, some of the people talking about these stupid things is a bother. I hate certain things, but do not hate the people. Its the actions they take that get to me. Things that bother me:
I hate when someone is on their phone while driving, not talking but texting, or looking up facebook, or something stupid. When you pick up and look at your phone while your car is in drive you are threatening someones life, maybe your own. Going back to the 2010 study that showed more people died in car accidents that with guns, that makes your car more of a death threat than a gun, take some responsibility and put the phone down, driving your car should be first.
I hate it when I pull into my super market parking lot and cannot find parking places because they all have scatter shopping carts in them. We have become a world of lazy, people cannot take an extra minute out of their life to take the cart and push it to the place for storing the carts, they just leave it. These are also the people who would be the first to complain if I left my cart and they watched the wind push it into their car. It takes less effort to be human and respect the world around you, each time we go to the store we take a push someones cart they left in the middle of the lot back to the store.
I hate when people drive under the speed limit in the left lane. This is part of my first hate, but it continues in Dallas we have many of streets that have 3 lanes in each direction. We have many people who will drive in the left lane and usually 7 to 10 miles under the speed limit, no cars in front of them, no cars beside them. I no that usually im the faster driver, but seeing these people drive so slow in the fast lane is just a frustration to me. Again these are probably the people who are complaining about the successful business man whom they work for. They say things like he is lucky and they should share their wealth.
So I have things that bother me, and usually I read into them way to far. BUT the world is not ending because the guy on the phone in front of me is sitting at a green light blocking traffic so he can take a selfie and add it to his facebook page. The world will not end because I have to push my neighbors shopping cart back because he is lazy. And last the world will not end because I have to drive slower to a point where I can get around this person who has no drive or ambition in their life.
What I have to do, and if any of the things above bother you we all need to
GET OVER IT.
