It's time to leave this town, it's time to steal away.... lets go get lost....

Today I went to KFC (I know, gross but so good at the same time) and there was this woman who was in line in front of me, from the moment she stepped foot into this fine(?) establishment, she was clearly disgruntled, she placed her order and waited. For some reason, chicken took nearly half an hour, I could see her out of the corner of my eye getting progressively pissed over the course of this 30 or so minutes. She starts flippin out on her kids who weren't even being bad, they were just having a couple of laughs amongst themselves. Finally, this woman gets her food, but she starts flippin out on the dude working there asking what took so long, telling them this was unacceptable and just losing it on the unfortunate staff of KFC. I nearly intervened, and yes, I've been told time and time again to mind my own business. I just didn't understand this situation though, understandable, it is frustrating to be waiting that long at a fast food joint. However, yelling isn't going to make the chicken cook faster, shouldn't she be glad that they are ensuring that the chicken her two young children are about to consume is fully cooked? People like that need to learn some patience and understanding. I am nearly 100% confident that the staff at KFC did not sit there for 22 minutes before deciding to cook the damn chicken. LADY, IT WILL COME WHEN IT'S READY! I just hate people who flip out on other people for things that are not necessarily in their control. Just think about that next time you yell at someone working in the service industry, it sucks so please be nice. To be fair sometimes it is the person helping you out that is being a dick, then by all means, fair game. But if they're nice and things are out of their control please don't be an asshole.

I saw Steve Aoki last night, absolutely amazing. I also got fairly wasted for the first time in a long time. I remember why I broke up with Jack Daniels ages ago.

I've decided by this point that you don't actually exist and it was me writing this blog. Anger gets built up and passed on through people. It is usually let out in small outbursts of rage when there is no possibility of retaliation thus making it reasonable to the accused angry asshole. I really hope the worker there didn't beat his girlfriend that night or vice versa.
