Things Not To Do
This grey dreary weather puts me in a bad mood and makes me very cranky and intolerant of certain behavior. I may just start a series on things not to do in public, reserved for days like today.
Even if you do not have a tissue on you, do NOT lean over a garbage can and blow your nose into it by using your fingers to hold your nostrils. Nobody wants to see you flick a long strand of snot. Pity the people who go rummaging in the trash for empty cans or the workers who have to empty the bins. It’s GROSS.
People avoid you for a reason. You are annoying. Recruiting is so cult-like. No, I don’t want a brochure. For the umpteenth time. Ever heard of “Don’t call us, we’ll call you”? I’ll let you know when I’m ready for some salvation.

Lol at the snot streams. You must live in my neighborhood. Gross!
as for the evangelists: there’s this Jehovah Witness lady who’s regularly hanging out at the foot of the escalator at Cadillac station, handing out her pamphlets. AFAIK, she’s not having much success.
And also: I live across from a Baptist church. Not that I care or anything. Anyways, one day, I was waiting for the bus near my home when this lady of a certain age was waiting for the bus too after attending that church. She started trying to evangelize me and telling me about how Jesus was coming back, etc. I listened politely, nodded, and then put my headphones back on and turned up the volume.
So yeah: good for you if you have faith. But leave the rest of us sinners alone.
