Let's Review

Today is a review of some of the things that make grumpy old men so grumpy. We have established that anything that annoys me makes me grumpy and almost anything and everything annoys me. Let’s review a few.

Government. So far as I am concerned, government’s job is to build roads and bridges, deliver the mail and protect the borders.

Any product or service that is inferior in quality. What ever happened to pleasing the customer?

Entitlement programs that enslave people. It is annoying to watch as half the country falls prey to political traps that take away dignity and self reliance.

People that allow themselves to be enslaved by government broken promises and deeming programs.

Anybody that doesn’t recognize that human life is precious and should be preserved at all cost. Anything less is just wrong by any standard.

Rewarding criminals and punishing victims. People are supposed to be responsible for what they do. Society works a lot better when that rule is enforced.

Any mistreatment of humans that can’t help themselves. Old people, mentally or physically impaired individuals or those that obviously uneducated about everyday life.

People that mistreat animals. Animals don’t have rights - certainly not more than humans - but they also don’t deserve to be tortured and killed just for fun or laziness.

Anybody that talks while I watch television or a movie. If I wanted to talk or listen, I wouldn’t be watching TV or a movie.

Idiots that have a drivers license. There are some people that should be made to walk everywhere they go.

People that ride bicycles in the middle of a highway. I don’t intend to understand how they have a "right" to run 5 mph in a 70 mph zone.

Perky people that obviously don’t have a clue about anything and want to tell everybody what they know.

Nannies have to be the worst annoyance. They want to control your life but exempt themselves from everything.

Sure the list goes on and on and on. But, that’s enough for today. When you get around a grumpy old man, try to remember some of these.

It annoys us for people not to remember what we just told them.
