Yet.
So, when I moved to Houston in 1981, we had just finished a period where arrested individuals of color could be found floating face down in the Bayou with their hands behind their backs. That time, thankfully, has passed, but I continue to object people throwing things into the Bayou.
However - I am oft motivated to ignore my own feelings about the Bayou and express my frustration and displeasure in exactly the same way that the po-leece used to do.
Point in fact - WordPress.
Point in fact - the intense pusillanimous political pissing contest
Point in fact - people who drive trucks that are too large for parking spaces, and block traffic with them
Point in fact - the notion that government is incompetent, therefore tax collections should be denied government, but government should continue to supply road maintenance, infrastructure improvement, fire and police protection, be fully staffed at all times, have no waiting lines or fees, and be Doris Day perky while doing so.
Point in fact - people who want airfare to be $200, regardless of where they are flying, but then expect champagne, no line, a hot meal, unlimited baggage allowance and no weather, no delays, and to be first up and first off the airplane.
Point in fact - people who refuse to leave their cell phones idle during a movie or theater performance.
That is a whole class of people about whom I wouldn't mind reading that they were found floating face down in the bayou with their cell phone clenched in their hands - behind their backs.
