Shit List No. 4 (and then some)

1. M. Night Shyamalan. You bastard. I sacrificed 90 minutes of my afternoon to watch The Happening. I'm still not convinced it's not a comedy. What makes it worse is my undying love for Mark Wahlberg. Now I don't even know about him. Did you write this while drunk?

2. Tyra Banks. This might be a tad harsh, but you are a ridiculous, hypocritical, insane bitch. Both your shows are terrible. I'd rather watch court tv. I will not "kiss your fat ass."


3. Waiting. So I was supposed to get this sweet job, and I didn't. Hearing the ladies in charge tell me how delightful I was and how much they enjoyed meeting me did not take the sting out of this rejection.

4. The Supremely Idiotic Court for banning the death sentence for child rapists. If they don't deserve to be put down, I don't know who does. Other than equally evil people.

5. The large and elusive mystery bug that refuses to let me sleep. I'll find you, jerkface.

6. Gas prices.
6a. The fine folks at Ford who so generously are now offering employee pricing on their gas-chugging trucks. Don't try to fool me into thinking you're helping us all out in these tough times--you just can't unload the things anymore. If you wanna help me out, make my payments less.

7. Myself for not being a more positive person. For bitching. To this end, I add some non-shitty things. Happy things.
- being in a great relationship
- my awesome family and friends
- puppies
- The Colbert Report
- naps and daydreams
- Krav Maga class
- new beginnings

Waiting is no fun. Especially when you're unclear if you're waiting on good news or bad news.

I think I have a pretty clear idea of your talent, grace, and intelligence. I'll always have work for you.

Pay isn't great, but the benefits are pretty good.

I like you happy things list, but also The Happening... I'd like to pretend that it doesn't exist. Pop in Lady in the Water this weekend and remember the good!

M. Nigh Shayamalamadingdong has gotten progressively worse. It's a steady decline in quality and intelligence. I bet his next movie is going to feature a take-over of the world by teletubbies. It can only be stopped by offering them custard.

Woah, you take Krav Maga classes?

People should take your shitlist seriously since you kind of have the capability to snap a neck or two.

Marky--you're the best. I love you.
Tina--Yes, not much happening in the Happening.
JB--he's banking on his name now.
Nico--I wouldn't say I'm a neck-snapper yet, but I could probably lift a potential attacker off the ground with a good kick if need be.
