I have two stories and they are unrelated.
First story, yesterday I was waiting for LD to get out of a meeting, and next to the lobby where I was waiting was a room full of nerdy kids playing Rock Band and Smash Bros Melee on projectors. I went in to see if she was in there, and she was not, and I said "Hi" to a random kid who noticed me, and he said "HI!" and turned as though he were expecting me to ask something, so I just said "Just looking for someone" and left.
I sat in the lobby for a little while longer and the kid came out and said, shit you not, "Are you looking for the Electronic Gaming Club?" I just said "No, I'm waiting for my girlfriend," but don't you fucking think that if I were looking for an electronic gaming club, and I stumbled upon a room full of electronic games, that I would have realized that I found it?
Anyway that wasn't my pet peeve, this is my pet peeve.
In Melee there was a Fox named "RAPE" and a Captain Falcon named "AIDS." Kids are so fucking stupid. Like, whatever, if you want to have retarded names and be offensive for its own sake, but if the sort of person who's supposed to be responsible for student activities (such as this so-called "club") came by and saw RAPE and AIDS kicking each other's asses on a projector, I think that would be the end of the club, don't you?
I tend to worry about that kind of thing. Fuck, you can have just as much fun if RAPE and AIDS aren't bouncing around on the screen. You can even shout "RAPE! AIDS!" when nobody important is around. Why do people gotta push the boundaries in unnecessary ways like that? Don't they realize they're risking everybody's fun?
Anyway. That was all my first story. My second story is that KFC is selling buckets of grilled chicken now. Like, totally non-fried chicken. I'm sorry, but isn't the skin the good part? And seriously, who eats grilled chicken with their fingers? It just seems like a shitty idea. I get that they're trying to seem healthier, but honestly, it sounds repulsive. And I am a fan of grilled chicken, so, you can trust me. Like how nobody listened to people who criticized Bush's policies until a Republican was criticizing Bush's policies. That's an important concept.
