when an oldie (but a goodie) is in the laundry room

they take all day, really and there's no chance you'll get to do laundry that day

when i'm behind someone driving and they keep slamming on their brakes for no reason and there is a million miles of road ahead of them between them and the next car -hate that

i say braker, braker one nine, we've got a braker in front and they've got to go

when i have just explained how to do a lesson and get asked what to do

ugh. i don't put up with that. they have to ask a friend.

when someone calls themselves granola or hippie

just because you make choices, does not and i repeat does not mean you are, period.

hippies don't flaunt it or ever call themselves anything. it's like a rich person saying i'm so rich look at all my money. i'm so rich.

when you turn on our water and the pipes make an ear shrieking sound.

when i think i have an ingredient, but have to end up going to the store.

i like going to the store, but not for side trips.

when a parent has their kid on a leash.

they are not a dog. or a pet. just do your job and take care of them.

when someone uses the phrase da bomb

ok, i admit there are sometimes when that phrase is the only words appropriate, but that is very few times
