FRIDAY RANT THREAD

NYE FUCKED UP MY SLEEP CYCLE. IF A HOLIDAY FALLS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK, WE SHOULD HAVE THE REST OF THE WEEK OFF. AMERICANS DON'T DEMAND ENOUGH VACATION TIME. WE ARE TOO PRODUCTIVE WITH TOO LITTLE TO SHOW FOR IT. I'M TIRED.

PLEASE, IF YOURE GOING TO WALK IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD AFTER DARK DONT WEAR ALL BLACK CLOTHING, THE STREETLIGHTS ARENT AS BRIGHT AS THEY USE TO BE, YOURE REALLY HARD TO SEE.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SO BRIGHT I CAN FEEL MY RETINAS BURNING TO CINDERS WHEN FACING DOWN ONCOMING TRAFFIC, AND PEOPLE STILLL CAN’T SEE PEDESTRIANS? IS THIS LIKE WHEN SMOKERS CAN’T TASTE ANYTHING, SO THEY OVERSALT THE SHIT OUT OF FOOD?

WHEN YOU’RE WEARING ALL BLACK, AT NIGHT, NO ONE CAN SEE YOU EVEN WITH BRIGHT HEADLIGHTS, UNLESS THERE’S SOMETHING REFLECTIVE OR A DIFFERENT COLOR, SO THAT THE LIGHT CAN REFLECT TO THE DRIVER’S EYES, ALLOWING US TO SEE YOUR ASS.
