I think I'm bitter today

All right all you faithful readers who never leave comments...it's time to leave a comment. But not on this post...go over to my "Revelations" blog 'cause I just posted part of a new story and I need some feedback. I even deliberately only posted half of it so that if you wanna read the rest you're gonna have to ask. Don't deny me my need to feel special! LOL

Anyways, has anyone noticed lately that no one says thank you anymore? Thank you for anything. Holding the door open for someone just gets silence. Try saying "bless you" to someone after they've just sneezed. No thank you. What about when you buy something for someone? Nothing. It's like they take you for granted. I'm tired of being taken for granted. People are just so self-centered it's ridiculous. And that doesn't include the above paragraph 'cause I know someone will comment and Thank You in advance. Maybe that's our problem with America and that's why Bush is in office. People have forgotten about common courtesy. "You want me to climb up three shelves to get the stupid garlic powder you can't live without or buy at another store? Sure. " So we climb and almost fall but we get it down and jackass just takes it and walks away. No thank you. "You're stupid clothes for your fugly baby won't scan at sel-checkout? Let me help you." Blah blah blah...no thank you. Like it's our fault your stupid. I swear to god this country is going to the crapper. As Cousin Eddie says in Christmas Vacation "The shitter's full." And we wonder why other countries hate us. We have the largest amount of self-centered people on one land mass. Now I'm not saying that everyone is an asshole...but jesus people! A freakin' thank you would be nice especially when someone does something for you that is so not selfish. "You need 10 bucks for the week? I've only got 9 but you can have it." And off they go with your money with no thank you and no intention of paying it back. And I'm not talking about strangers either. I'm talking about people you see all the time. And if K.M. is reading this, this isn't about you. You are one of the most unselfish people I know. The ones that read this probably agree with me and the ones that don't are the exact ones I'm talking about 'cause they are too busy not saying thank you and getting wasted. ARG!
