People who drive like morons and then look at everybody else like they're the morons makes me want to take hostages.

Wondercon is this weekend, but I can't go anymore because they moved it from the Bay Area to Anaheim. Lauren (and perhaps Craig) will be there and everything. I never get to see them anymore.

My hate for Carls Jr commercials led me to a wonderful site, commercialsihate.com. I immediately registered.

I don't get the argument some people make when you complain about commercials, saying "if you don't like it don't watch it/turn it off". Its a COMMERCIAL, not a 2 hour movie. What are you supposed to do, turn the set off, sit there and count to 30, and then flip it back on?

Speaking of commercials, this one made me change the channel whenever it aired.

Babies are cute, and at first I thought it was funny, but it got annoying fast, as it was aired about twice daily. I feel either you love it or hate it.

By the way, I'm in Brazil now. The point of the commercial is to help this bank save money if you switch to paperless statements. There was even a "the making of" where I found out the baby is from an English-speaking family, most likely American.

I was just the victim of check fraud. Last month I decided to be nice when a couple guys came around claiming to be selling books and magazines and I cut them a 7 dollar check for a magazine that was supposed to be donated to a children's hospital. But I felt weird about it and looked up the company name and found that they alter checks. I put a stop on the check but they did in fact alter it so the stop didn't work because in order to stop a check you have to know the amount it was written for, and the bank thought it was written for 70 because that's what the company altered it to say. It should be all taken care of now, but what a pain in the butt.

Replying to tell me know dumb I was or how you already knew about that scam would make you a jerk, by the way.

I think I'd better not tell you where I got the best burger I've ever had.

It's amazing how low people will sink to get money. I don't think the penalties for this kind of crap are stiff enough.

And, speaking of low ways to make money, look what one town in New Jersey is now doing:

Yep, an $85.00 fine for texting while walking. All in the name of "safety", of course. Yeah, right.

Oh no, I EAT at Carl's, all the time, I just abhor their over-sexed ads.
