Definitely not a morning person. I'm not peppy and am low energy in the morning, ugh. Never thought I'd be so dependent on caffeine just to seem personable in the mornings. Crapola!

Edit: actually I have rare days that I am but majority days I'm not.

I just read an article header "Life sentence for man who held CA girl captive for 18 years" and it makes me very angry. To note aside from this article, I am for the death penalty — I do not believe in life sentences that defy the time limit of age of humans. For example, each charge or count(s) in a case adds years to a term. How can a person serve 200 years to life in prison? Because that's how the judicial system works and legislature allows for good behavior, reduced sentence, and other methods. What I'm getting at is, after a certain point, the death penalty should be on the table. Abduction, rape, and holding someone prisoner for year such as 18, leave no room for leniency. Some people should not be breathing.

Don't get me started on the parole officer or police who did not suspect anything afoul despite complaints or even the slack quality of any investigation by any state federal person(s) or agency. They failed miserably.

This is a pet peeve of mine. When I have the full intention of getting rest or a good sleep, I absolutely loathe being woken up especially for little stuff. I also hate just because one can run on fumes with little to no sleep, does not mean I desire to do as you do. Just because you don't sleep five hours doesn't mean you can wake me to help you with stuff. When I am on my fourth or fifth hour of sleep, you need to let me hit my six or seven. Point being, let me fricken sleep. Don't wake me up. Let me sleep on my damn weekend. In addition to, I hate trying to fall asleep after being woken up for a period of hours. It puts me in a s***ty mood and I will make it known.

A colleague's last day was Wednesday and eventhough I said bye, I didn't say goodbye at the end when I had left work. Though she bonded closer with other staff the time she spent and i was relatively new… I somehow feel like I should've? Like it's one of those things you should naturally know and do. /shrug I guess. I don't want others thinking I disliked her or anything, I just didn't/don't know the procedure of the 'you should.' Thoughts?

What's the deal with getting hep b vaccine when you're born in the US? I shouldn't have to, wth?!

Hi.

You seem cool. I'm a straight guy. I was going to ask you to meet up and hang out but I don't know you at all. So I was going to ask the basic questions like age and where you reside. I was going to do this via the inbox but it seemed a little weird so I was reluctant as a straight male. I like trance/vocals/electro. Hi. Nice to meet you.

Feel free to send me a message via inbox.

• I know this isn't a rant but it inherently is. The topic being why are guys so insecure about being/perceived as gay when they are straight? Another related question is doubts about our/male masculinity. No bro-mance?! No brotherly love?!

I was thinking I hadn't ranted lately and was thinking about something I truly feel emotion for/about. Tire flesh and garbage on the freeway. Not on a typical residential street, but the damn freeway.

It seems almost weekly I'm dodging something on the freeway and thankful nothing happens while driving 65-80. From large chunks of tire flesh, little metal rods (WTF?!), and other stuff that people fail to secure properly on their vehicles.

Near the end of 2009, my friend was on the freeway and there was a wooden table on the freeway. It was semi-destroyed already but parts of it were still large enough to cause damage and the grill of his red G35 just got tore up. He wasn't speeding and the table was in the middle of the lane, cars on both his sides of him so he couldn't evade, and was basically forced to eat the damage $$. Really, the dumb person that failed to secure that table on their truck bed or whatever needs to be held accountable for that s***. Hazards of the road I'm sure and the realization is, "what can you do?" That person isn't going to wait around or pull over. Damn effers.

So I was merging onto the freeway and about a quarter mile in on the fourth lane (most outside lane to your right shoulder), there was a large chain in the road. Glad I was able to maneuver so it went between tires and prevented that thing from tearing up my car cause it would've been killer. I think I would've cried. But what the hell is it doing in the road?

I'm still on the freeway and decide to get into the first lane and I'm nearing my exit about 2.5miles away. The bottom of a mop is in the middle median of two lanes so any driver on the road should be okay but seriously, WTF?! It's not enough that people fail to secure objects for everyones' safety but the weirdest objects. It's a bottom cloth portion of a damn mop and a large link set of metal chains. How the eff is that possible? Why is it on the road/freeway, how do you suck so bad you can't lock things down before driving, and intentionally evade accountability? Icing on the cake. "What can you/I do?" I LOATHE said persons.

New users on Rantfoo! not filling out their damn profiles and adding a photo so I can get into some sexytime with the 'add user' feature. If only there was a "poke" like facebook, then I can begin poking and prodding you as I please. LOL kidding.

But seriously, fill out your profiles and stuff. You can copy one of my profiles for another site where all the questions have the answer "sexy time" or a variation thereof. It's probably me. =)

Examples below:

Where do you live? Sexytown.

What do you like? Sexytime.

What do you dislike? Sexytime imitators, time outs, and moments of non-sexytime.

What do you do? CEO of Sexytime LLC.

Describe yourself. I am the embodiment of sexytime and have been told I'm always in sexymode. Not to be conceited, but I'm very very sexy.

They are violations of the California Vehicle Code (aka V.C.) but really, theres a road that stretches about half a mile with no stop signs with very little to no pedestrian traffic. And the city deems it fit to make that a 25mph zone. So I got a speeding ticket from a trap motorcycle cop who was in plain sight; I was just cruising with a lot on my mind and no cars on the road in either direction.

I was cited going 45mph which is true and I don't hold a grudge for him doing his job. My rant is for the city deeming that long stretch of road that has no stop signs for about half a mile, has one or two lanes that intersect into it, and limit it to 25mph.

Little are you aware, the adjacent streets on both sides, going either direction are 30mph or 35mph. Why was I on this slow street? Because the building where I work/parking lot exits that street.

That's like getting cited for going 75mph on the freeway. Damn.

So recently, I've noticed that despite running 6-8 miles a week, that I get sick often. The throat infections seem chronic. In medical lingo, chronic means: continuing a long time or recurring frequently.

Within this year alone, I've gotten a cold twice with strept throat being the most critical discomfort following other symptoms such as runny nose, sneezing, stuffyness, nasal/respiratory congestion. All typical of a cold or being sick.

This time around, I just have one symptom of being sick. A chronic or constantly itchy throat. It has wore me down to the point where I prayed to God that this would go away soon and that I wouldn't have to concern myself with having my tonsils removed. I should consult a physician, doctor, or ENT about this but I think its because I don't keep warm in the evening. How susceptible am I to a cold if I didn't keep warm for an hour or three in 60s' degree weather? Add in consumption of insignificant or copious amounts of alcohol? I ponder.

I'm about to cough out a lung and get teary-eyed when my throat itches. I don't smoke and I'm coughing up bacteria (light green mucus) as if I have a cold but as of right now and the last week, it has only been coughing.

This in fact could be a sign of some type of respiratory problem stemming from lungs, throat, nasal sinuses, or possibly even heart? Its time to stop being negligent and be more concerned.
