Airing of Grievances Edition
HAPPY FESTIVUS! Today, this December 23, we are putting special emphasis on the airing of grievances in hopes that a Festivus Miracle makes them all go the fuck away. I know this has been an especially disappointing year for all of us. Airing grievances now, before disapproving relatives are present, allows us to clear the air, look hopelessly toward the new year, and make sure we have appropriate staples for the coming apocalypse. I’ll start, you add your grievances in the comments.
- This is my third holiday season on chemo and I’m more discouraged now than I was in the beginning.
- I’m still not in an assisted living center and the size of the waiting list is still over 10,000 just for Indiana alone.
- Biden can commute the sentences of 37 death row inmates but can’t raise the income limit for people on Social Security. Lame.
- Nissan and Honda are merging and I’m afraid they may do away with the only motorized mobility device with true 360-degree movement.
- The Pope is opening the Holy Door tomorrow and letting everybody in for the next year. EVERYBODY. In Rome. Don’t come crying to me when something goes boom.
- 6. This was the year we killed the myth of the amateur athlete. So, can we start getting some decent games?
- 7. You can’t tell me that the State of Alabama is wholesale involved in the slave trade. Still. They fucking refuse to give it up. Losers.
- 8. How are we possibly drinking less alcohol? I need to be drinking more!
- 9. Why can’t I spend the day high? I need a better reality!
- 10. The whole email situation has gotten totally out of hand.
- 11. Fast food is no longer a cheap and tasty alternative.
- 12. Stop asking what the Founders would think. They’d be horrified by everything we do. Everything.
- 13. There really needs to be a sugar-free option for fudge.
- 14. No one is satisfied. Stop asking.
- 15. What are the odds of Israel bombing Bethlehem (in the West Bank) for Christmas?
- 16. The wrong people are dying. The wrong people are elected to office. There should be a way of evening out those two wrongs.
- 17. Matt Gaetz is just the tip of the iceberg for all that is wrong in politics.
- 18. I need an individually oversized portion of sweet potato casserole because I’m the only one in this family who eats it.
- 19. In a day of instant inventory counts, why are there items on your website that are not in stock when I order them?
- 20. I still don’t have grandkids.
- 21. The US still has the worst healthcare system of any country in the developed world.
- 22. Why can’t cats type?
- 23. No one gave you the right to fucking harsh anyone else’s buzz.
- 24. Hugs should be more portable.
- 25. Coffee should maintain a suitable drinking temperature at all times.
- 26. Who keeps eating holes in the towels?
- 27. We would all be happier if everyone else was less stupid.
- 28. Being healthy shouldn’t be available based on one’s income.
- 29. Dogs bring more happiness to the world than do babies.
- 30. AI has no chill.
I could do more, but it’s already mid-morning and I think the dogs want back out. Your turn. Don’t bother being nice.
