john [email] said at 2:27 AM 06-21-2006: A few things that are really annoying the crap out of me lately:
1. Spelling bees. Why in the hell is the media hyping this shit up so much?Movies about spelling bees, coffee shops reserving seats for the local spelling bee champion, commercials using spelling bees, the local news reporting local spelling bee results, etc. I'm sick of it.
2. The Puerto Ricans riding up and down my street all day with huge Puerto Rico flags flying from the back of their cars, blasting music, holding Puerto Rico flags out the window, just driving around the block all day long by my house repeatedly with that same latin drum beat rattling my windows.
3. People that place their damned water sprinklers right by the sidewalk so that it sprays the sidewalk, making people have to walk around it and through the wet grass so that the stream doesn't hit them.

don't be bummed that you can't sit where you feel like because people are more dedicated to the beauty of language than you. we as a people should give a shit about spelling things correctly without paper and pen, and reward the triumphant.
abby [email] said at 2:53 AM 06-21-2006: also, on a hot ass day, who doesnt want to walk right into those sprinklers? are you crazy? maybe it is hotter here.
john [email] said at 2:33 AM 06-21-2006: Oh, and how could I forget! All of these stupid ass World Cup soccer fans that just came out of nowhere all of a sudden filling up every freaking bar and restaurant wearing their stupid world cup shit acting like hooligans, when in reality, they don't really give a shit about soccer.
reggie [email] said at 10:16 AM 06-21-2006: That's okay. Pretty funny, but perhaps if you want to make fun of something how about the World Cup?
You could poke fun at how this is the one sport that everyone in the world goes crazy for except America.
OR you could make fun of how in DC going to bars to watch World Cup is the trendy/culturally "in" thing to do yet we don't sell out the stadium for the baseball team we just HAD to have so badly.
But World Cup only comes once every few years, you can do that "genuine comic that warms the heart" anytime bruh.
reggie [email] said at 11:34 AM 06-21-2006: Or maybe you can do a comic where spelling bees become the trendy/culturally "in" thing to do. Call it the Word Cup. And have people going to bars and going crazy for this big worldwide spelling bee.
