    Why must people lick their finger, smear it across the paper, and then give it to you? She didn't even *try* to separate them without spit first! Now my paper is slightly damp. And gross. Ewwwww!! And is that an oily smudge of lipstick that will smear all over the rest of my papers?!!?? Accckkkkk!!!! I'm SO horrified and now I'm obligated to take that paper because I asked for it.

    Very elderly people who decide that crossing a busy road is a better idea than walking less than 30 meters to the traffic lights. The road is six lanes across, two to three turning lanes, with a posted speed limit of 80 km/h. 80!!!! Which means that some people are travelling at 90! Obviously the small memorial of bundles of flowers tied around the signpost to your right was completely lost on him.

    I'm sure you've made it to your senior years, sir, but walking out in front of my car on an 80 km/h road is *not* going to help you with future medical costs!

    He looked to be in his 70s and completely incapable of running fast. I'd say even walking briskly might be out of the question.

    This very point usually has led me to decide not to repeat a waste of my social time especially on a Sunday ever again when such favouritism is supplied.

    Positive rant-that very evening, I spotted a folded $50 on the ground on my way to Lowe's, so a replacement light using LED was part of my local economy's boost (went shopping at Longos and Value Village too and had $5 left for Friday's purchase of some Easter chocolate at Shoppers too).

    I had the same exact thing happen to me today but my two elderly types looked 'sporty'; however, walking at a semi-leisurely pace in your Northface jacket, Merrell kicks and Tilley hat while deliberately facing away from oncoming traffic is still unwise. And guess what? Your hiking gear is for hiking--not for diagonally crossing the street in front of a Giant Tiger.

    With spring coming it's a good idea to do a spring tune up on your vehicle. Don't forget to top up your blinker fluid as I've seen to many people not signalling lane changes or turns lately!!!

    @Linda Evans the same thing was happening to my DH and he has a pay as you go for emergency. His provider is FIDO so he call the last week and ask why a number is enroute to his telephone number because he called back the number once to see if any one would answer and it’s a business number. He complained to Fido and he was credited with 2months for free the calls stop coming

    I usually get the 80 ct (3 different sizes inside) plastic bandage box by Band-Aid when it's $4.99 or $5.99 at Shoppers or Fortinos. We usually don't get waterproof or silver embedded or specialty bandages. If I do use a non-Band Aid product, I'm usually not happy with the quality of padding or plastic. Thus my Band-Aid loyalty.

    when you hate you neighbor - living in an apartment sucks sometimes. my neighbor to the right doesn't work, hasn't worked in 10 years due to illness for what ever reason. so he plays music, guitar and loud bass all times of the day. it vibrates my bedroom wall and when you try to get bed early you can't because they are watching a movie. talked to the previous people who lived in my unit and they called the cops of them so many times and finally she moved two floors up. so today - day off and past few days stressful trying to do my dad's paperwork (he is in a nursing home in NS) so today I wanted to watch GH in my bed. And from 1230pm to now - The Who - Who are you, who who..over and over again. Made a complaint as a headache was coming on. Apt people called over, and I guess he got upset went on balcony starting screaming and yelling. if i ever see them in the hallway omg will I be mad - the world doesn't revolve around you and people work and you don't so be respectful. Hubby up at 6am and I work late so sleep in until 11am. Sorry for babbling on and on..
