Y’know, I’ve seen some rather unusual things in my morning commute. But today was the first time I hit a deer.

You see, it’s 9am. It’s bright and sunshiny. It’s a busy road just yards from the city line. They were does, so presumably not completely crazy/sex-driven. WTF are a herd of deer doing crossing the bleeping road?

Fortunately I know the rule about ‘see one deer, there’s more around’, so when I saw the lead doe trot across the street, I hit the brakes even though she was not in my way. I was going about 20mph when another one burst out of the brush. My side mirror and it’s face/neck had an unscheduled meeting and then both were redirected, the mirror against the car and the deer back whence it came, with the rest of its group. Only apparently damage to me or the deer was having the crap scared out of us. However, the numbnut behind me was too busy on the phone to notice and nearly rear-ended me. Moron.

Believe it or not, it isn't Chad Johnson. He's a distant second.

No, the honor goes to a local cop who drove, in his marked cruiser, to the jurisdiction on the opposite side of the city, went to a new popular restaurant and parked the cruiser there, unlocked, with his service weapon in it.

Yeah. Service weapon go bye-bye. His job, too. Idiot.

Not just the drivers today either. Besides having to follow a car with 4 smokers in it for 2 miles *cough cough*, I also observed a crashed school bus blocking an intersection, and an accident at an intersection where one of the same cars (and presumably the same driver) nearly hit me a few weeks ago because she was too busy texting to obey a stop sign (or my horn...) But the topper came from someone who wasn't in a car. The panhandlers at an intersection near my office are many and determined, but today they were displaced by a church group running around with buckets begging for cash. I don't give anything to anyone begging on the street, so I ignored the woman shaking the bucket by my window. She then went and stood in front of my car shaking her bucket while the rest of traffic starting moving for the green light. Plenty o'horns from me and most of the other cars, but she was bound she was going to get money out of me. Finally I yelled at her that if she wanted to meet Jesus that badly, I might just oblige her, and the guy behind me heard that and yelled that he wouldn't see a thing. She finally got out of the road, yelling at me the whole way for 'not acknowledging God'. Un-be-freaking-lievable.

Man sues Petsmart after slipping in dog poop )

I'm pretty sure poop is an assumed risk in PetSmart...or anywhere else a dog goes, literally.

Why? WHY?

Just took a call at work. They asked to speak to an attorney who isn't in, wanting the status on a case. I said I'd have to take a message, which case is this on? The answer? "I don't know." "You don't know what case you're calling about, but you want its status?" "Yes, that's right."

The stupid, it burns!!!
