They should just wind up and kick you in the guy veggies instead. Jeez.

RIght? They also gave me a couple of salad rolls because the wait was long. That was cool until I realized they gave me nothing to dip them in. Was like eating a fistful of lettuce.

Yeah, I wasn't sure if you were lodging your own complaint or making fun of someone else bitching on FB. In the end I figured it didn't matter.

A friend who works at a resort in Steamboat posted this gem, which they received in the mail today.

The absolutely most annoying thing in the history of ever with regards to Christians is their abundant use of unnecessary capitalization of words that aren't proper nouns or sentence beginners.

Put down the Bible and read a fucking book on the English language every once in a while. Fahk. And 4th generation Texan? Because your lineage is so much better than everyone else's.

Man, if I were a decent writer I'd write a rebuttal.

As a Colorado native, I had to chuckle at that note. With apologies to Giff and TT, I can safely say that the most common prejudice held by Coloradoans is against Texans. Generally held to be loud, obnoxious and poorly behaved tourists. When I told my friends years ago that I was moving from Denver to Dallas, I received many, many incredulous replies, of, "you're moving, WHERE?"

Of course, now I live in California - the state that is the regarded in second-lowest esteem by the natives, there. But, for the rest of you - it's all good.

no apologies necessary. Texas should probably apologize for itself a little more often. If I lived in the Texas-y part of Texas instead of the ghetto, filled with gorgeous black women with huge asses part of Texas i'd probably be a little annoyed too.

No apologies needed here either, even though I'm sure it's overblown and full of stereotypes. I really should just start posting a journal of obnoxious assholes I meet either on my travels or who happen to come to Texas, cause I can assure you we're not the only blowhards.

This is all from someone who cannot see what was posted in the first place thanks to work filters.

Not sure if this counts, but as i am neither Christian, Muslim or Gay, I have to wonder why I constantly get ads touting dating services and themed cruises that are aimed for members of these three groups.

Methinks Facebook's targeted marketing algorithims need a bit of work.

No, they're just throwing bait out there, waiting for you to pick one. Then they'll know.

A friend of mine went out to eat and happened to sit at the table next to the Honey Boo Boo clan. She posted a pic on FB. All of her friends were like "OMG! That show is so funny! Mama June is looking better after losing weight!"

I'm feeling nothing but rage. I really don't want to be the guy who goes apeshit on her wall, but I feel I need to do humanity a favor and apologize to her later.

I am pretty sure that it is illegal to threaten to shoot someone, even if you are writing the post, while living in Texas...

The other day, I posted something about Bill Nye being on DWTS with some science analogies about how I hate it. Anyway, some girl says, "I'm repulsed like electrons repel protons."

Not a huge deal of course but a little embarrassing since she's the frickin' chair of a high school science department.

I decided to look up Bill Nye's partner. Nice work.
