She was angry for looking like a female trailer-trash version of Bob Barker domingo, 25 de agosto, 2008 I was walking down Madison Avenue when I saw a very old woman with a very unfortunate hairstyle -- the mullet. It was a light, silvery gray and it contrasted heavily with her dark, tanned skin. I averted my eyes quickly to something else, a building or a public pay phone, I don't remember, but it's rude to stare. I noticed a movement from the corner of my eye from the old woman, but I didn't really think about it. As I approached the crosswalk, my eyes roved back to the woman because she was practically in front of me. She had her middle finger ready and poised, the nail touching the bottom of her chin as if drawing some "fuck-you" power. No sooner had I turned my attentions back to her that she just launched the finger from her chin. Was she cursing me? Madison Avenue? Manhattan? The world?
I've lived in NYC all my life and never have I received so many flipped birds from strangers before! I feel like a true New Yorker now.

This is a record for the shortest lifespan. They always break in the same way, in that one side just slowly stops working until no amount of wire jiggling can bring back da noise. Does one side of my head emit some anti-earphone fumes, killing them slowly? Am I alone in this or do other people's earphones have terribly short lives?
I... I'm just gonna save up for headphones. I just hope the 2.5mm earphones that came with my mp3 player won't break, too. I only started using them because, as I've been saying, my regular pair died.
This has been pissing me off for too many years.

By the time the halfway point came around, my thoughts were completely filled with, "WHAT THE HELL DOES CLARK DO?!?!?!? GET A JOB."
No, seriously, what he do? Farmin'?

There I was just a-walking down the street singing (in my head), "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do" when I spotted a beautiful German Shepherd walking with its owner. I stared at the dog for a while, not really noticing what the owner was doing. I thought he was doing some weird wave, but he didn't move the hand, and what he raised seemed too thin to be a palm.
Why did he flip me the bird, because I was staring at his dog? If it wasn't because of that, then what the hell was he doing?
