Things To Rant About

When did a lie become an alternative truth?
Why are parking spaces so small?
Do subway riders know deodorant exists?
Why do jaywalkers ignore red lights,
and children never wash their hands before they eat?
Why decide to spell doubt and subtle with a "b"?
Why have twenty checkouts and only two cashiers?
Why are there no cops around when you need one?
Why do people peddle religion door to door?
Why didn't these annoying things bother me before?
A few more things to add to my list;
why wasn't I told life would be as brutal as this?
There are no washrooms around when you need to piss;
tips get automatically added to the cost of a meal,
interest rates on credit cards are outrageous,
and the delivery men won't deliver to my apartment door.
I know I've been ranting a lot, but there's so much more;
roads that never get plowed,
people who pay for groceries by check,
double parking on a narrow street,
and oh, what about coffee that's too hot to drink?
