This is a post of annoyances. I think of it like this: all those small things that annoy me are like those sticky sweets in a bowl on an old ladies front parlour table. You reluctantly try to pick one...but here comes three!
Because no one likes the easygoing people anyway, these are the things that annoy me today:
nr 1
My sons infant school.
Now, I'm sure the whole system is flawed. I'm sure all those princes in politicians clothing that generally seem to be running the country into the ground happily looked into their monocles and down on the people and said "we can't have you learning to think". And surely there is an excuse book at the office that the teachers have to master instead of pedagogy... But I truly hope my sons teachers smokes weed behind the shed because...wow.

| let's hope it's this shed. |
You can not put over your responsibility as a teacher or an adult on a 4 year old and shrug your shoulders and smile about it!! And if your attitude to the social, emotional and mental development of the kids can be summed up in "I don't really care" maybe teacher isn't the most fitting job? Next time people complain about pregnant teens and unmotivated children...look behind the shed at the infant school.
Warning: don't stumble on the excuse-book.
nr 2
Charity.
Everytime I walk down Week street daytime I do a kind of street slalom between all the mousetrap-like charity people. Not because I hate lion babies or think cancer research is unimportant. I just don't believe in charity. In fact it makes me angry. They are only there to soothe the bad conscience of the comfortable middle classes. To stand there, on the streets of one of the richest countries in the world and pretend we need to give money to save the lions or the cancer sick?! We all know where the money should come from for those very important things. It's called priority. I'm sure the Queen could save all the lions in an afternoon if she wanted. And where does taxes go if not to things the people need...like cancer research. And schools. And hospitals. But the rich get richer and the poor get poorer every day and clearly people don't care enough to change that... So don't you dare stand there and ask me to enable capitalism. It's like those "your money kills" signs, as long as we give to charity the rich can keep their money and the lions can die out, because seriously, how far will that one pound go? But it sure feels nice, doesn't it.
nr 3
Boobs
Boobs is such a topic of conversation now it seems, what's up with that? Are they good or bad right now? Recently a couple of women were thrown out from a bath house in Sweden for swimming topless. Not that it was against any rules...they were just afraid that men wouldn't be able to control their inevitable boners and it would turn into amateur porn (borderline watchable with strong rapey overtones?). But somehow it becomes the responsibility of women to take care of it. Of course they got thrown out. But man-boobs are ok!
It's like that thing about not getting to breastfeed in public. Surely we have more serious problems if people immediately think of porn...or get disgusted..and men cant see a baby sucking on boobs without turning into a mentally challenged baboon? Because that's the reasons people give...sadly. Or maybe they all came over on Tallink where women were told not to drink because...you know that gets you raped, right!
But I also hear braless is cool now again so lets hope we soon end up somewhere where we can do whatever the fuck we want about those boobs without all those opinions. They are not some kind of alien life form with magic powers.
And just in case anyone wonders,I'm not a man hating lesbian, I'm for legalizing drugs and I give money to homeless people on the street. Because I'm not a total bitch.
So that's today's annoying subjects. Happy St.Georges day :)
