Supply and Demand?

The Classic City has no shortage of talentless DJ's.

Phonebook Overload

Dear ACC,
Stop sending me friggin' phone books!!!!!! I already have enough to build a doghouse, except for the fact that my dog thinks phone books are out of date and useless. If you're dead-set on wasting any more money, why don't you buy and place a few more recycling centers around town for the ten per household you've already delivered.

Hey Lady

I have been a pedestrian many times before, and will be again.
When I am clearly jaywalking, I try hard not to get in the way of traffic.
I know I'm not supposed to be in the middle of the road, so if a car is coming, I move.
Soooo, when I see someone taking a leisurely stroll through the middle of the street, I take it upon myself to give them a bit of a scare to get their butt in gear. I don't slow down. If you are in the middle of the street illegally- watch out, because I will hit you. Once I get close enough though, I always slow down, because even if I'm angry, I don't have it in me to hurt someone. Usually they don't seem to care that they almost got hit by a car. They don't even try to hurry along. But hopefully, I'm getting across to some people that they are putting themselves in a dangerous position, and some drivers in annoying positions.
That being said- to the lady crossing Thomas St. sorry I almost hit you for real.
I think you taught me a lesson about my lesson.

Bye students!

Just want to say, working all school in a restaurant downtown and getting ass-raped by the sheer volume of you this year, i am so happy to say bye bye!
It will be nice to not have to bust my butt twice as hard for the same amount of money this summer.
And to all you living wage UGA workers protesting, SHUT UP. At least you most of you folks get benefits, vacation, and for the most part paid above min wage .
Really, every time i see you all handing out flyers and/or protesting i want to beg you to trade jobs with me so you can see how good you freaking got it.
And yes, i have tried to applied to UGA. The labor department said i should dumb down my resume....

Just Pretend

If I am standing at the sink in the public restroom and you exit the stall... PLEASE just wash your hands instead of immediately leaving the bathroom without killing any germs. For my sake, please pretend like you have some sense of personal hygiene. Run your hands under the water. Grab some hand sanitizer from the dispenser on the wall. Anything. I don't care if you have hand sanitizer in your purse/backpack. Humor me. I am not a germaphobe by any means. I know that door handle is riddled with bacteria. I know my mouth has more bacteria in it than the toilet seat. I know. I know. But please, I don't want to walk into class and stare at you the whole time, knowing you're the kid that didn't wash their hands in the bathroom.

New Earth Music Hall. What a waste of my time and money.

I feel ripped-off. Having paid $40 for a weekend pass to New Earth, rented a room, and driven from out of town- I have come to realize how I was scammed by a sales pitch! To read the New Earth Facebook and Blog, you would think this place is the hottest ticket in town. What a sucker I was; I feel like I drank a gallon of snake oil.

The bottom line is I was stupid to buy a $40 pass, the whole weekend of shows was dull, and I felt like a fool for ruining my weekend and lightening my wallet for this s**t! I know the rain was partly to blame, but still this was the lamest, dullest, most over-priced load of BS.

Here's just a few of the slogans I read from the New Earth Hype Machine that tricked me into thinking this place was something I wanted to see:

    "coming-of-age"
    "multi-dimensional shows"
    "You will not see better music for this price ever again"
    "NEMH Family"
    "going to be an epic show"
    "This will be a monumental Earth Day Celebration"
    "AMAZING week of music!"
    "One Love"
    "Legendary"
    "epic and nothing less. Be there, seriously."
    "Together we can continue to build this amazing local community..."
    "LOCAL HEROS DUBCONSCIOUS"
    "we are one of the first music venues to also host a music blog."
    "This is a dynamic concept and it is intended to benefit the local and global community."

Athens! WTF?!?!?!?! Arrrrrrrrrgh!!!!

LOCAL MUSICIANS BE WARNED

LOCAL MUSICIANS BE WARNED! Mule Train Records IS NOT an artist friendly company - they are out to own your ass and ruin your life. Don't be charmed by their promises of money and fame, it's all lies. None of the controlling partners have any experience in the music industry, with exception to actually being musicians - something they should go back to doing instead. One of the owners has even been accused of fraud as it pertains to his "other" business.

Just a warning to all the local musicians - be careful. Don't enter into any contracts with them, and if you do, be sure you have one hell of a lawyer.

Mule Train Records - Tarnishing an otherwise wonderful music scene. Don't be fooled!

Daylight Savings Time

Is ridiculous!

Government screws with so many things, even TIME itself. I hate it.

PS: The CAPTCHAS are insanely small. WTF?!

ABH

I have GOT to stop reading the comment on the online Athens Banner Herald. It's like a train wreck; so hard not to look. But the commenters are complete morons for the most part. It's scary knowing these people live amongst us.
