Yes. Flies are one of the most annoying animals ever. Most people do not realise what trouble they in Australia.

Especially when I walk to and from school 5 days a week, each walk about 40 minutes, in either burning morning sun or incinerating afternoon sun.

I hate flies. Fetchers....

Soccer Fields are larger.
 
Stupid Slow Internet causing me to have double posts!!! Grrrrrrrr!!!!
 
I've got two papers, one due on Tuesday, the other due on Wednesday (and another one due the following Tuesday, but that one is simple for me). I've got one paragraph on one and none on the other. I know what I want to say...I just don't know how to get to that. Introductions are so key....


Pleh, I think I'll go write another post on politics to get my mind moving...
 
I absolutely dispise ice-cream vans. They drive around noisily, disturbing everyone with those dreadful "tunes" and rattle-bang engines and tooting their horns, and expect you to give them lots of money for a solution of sugar, fat and E-numbers. I hate it when one comes every day and plays the same damn tune over and over and over again: that happened to me when I was trying to revise for my exams in May. There were three; one with a creepy mangled version of Teddy Bears' Picnic, one with the standard ice-cream van tune, and one with a muddly scale and arpeggio sound. They would start at around 7am, and I would hear those jangling tingling infuriating sounds every few minutes until it got dark - around 10pm. Even shutting the window didn't help. I think noise pollution annoys me the most of anything from living in a city. There's one stalking around the halls now - for f's sake, it's nearly freezing and after dark! No-one buys ice-cream in winter, surely? :aargh:

Hmm, maybe I should get a blog and post all my rants there.
 
How come on TV, people who are happy jog backwards on beaches, laughing, with sweaters tied around their necks?
 
Animals are optional, and its usually a dog I think, although horses arent that uncommon.
 
@noncon: Agreed - for example, in all the collective distance covered, nobody ever impales their foot with a rusty treble hook. (I have :blush:.)

I may have never known what 'E-numbers' were until five minutes ago, but I'll take the opportunity to rant that Google's introduction to various chemical food additives these days is ridiculous.

Maybe we should all just go back to eating meat, bread, and vegetables :rolleyes:.


And who ties a sweater around their neck, anyway??
 
I know I shouldn't complain about stuff that no one has any power over but I can't stand it now when It's getting dark so quickly.
 
It snowed here. I hope people shoveled that slushy garbage!

Though the undisturbed snow on rooftops and in this triangle across the street from me looks nice.
 
Also in another rant about about stuff that no one has any power over isn't it annoying the sky is usually grey instead of blue.

An ice cream truck drives by my house every so often (a little surprising - I don't exactly live in a big city...) It plays "Do Your Ears Hang Low?" or something like it every time, except it's just *slightly* off-key. Unngh. But at least it stopped coming after about September, and it never played at 7 in the morning... oh, God...

Ranting blogs are the best.

And I buy ice cream in the winter, though not from a truck.

Come to New York...I believe starting next year, those trucks can't play those tunes (or at least as loud). And they're not around in the winter. I can't help you on the morning part though.
