1. My opinion of my fellow human beings pretty much hit its nadir on Monday when, on my way back from the Dentist, I overheard a fellow passenger on the metro wishing she'd been on the Red Line train that crashed on the 21st--"been on it, but not been hurt. I'd be gettin' a big ole' payday from my lawsuit."
If I hadn't been completely out of it from novocaine, I would've punched her.
2. On a related note, since the recent changes in the wake of the crash have resulted in greater inefficiency, more overcrowding, and an increase in general dumbassery, I think WMATA will find itself needing to change the overhead voice to some more sternly worded messages. Like instead of "Doors closing" and "Please stand clear of the doors," maybe Metro Lady should start saying "Get out of the goddamn doorway, you dumb whores."
And instead of "Please move to the center of the car," she can say "stop fucking pushing each other--there's no room."
And they can replace the comment about allowing passengers to exit before you try to get on with "you stupid fucking tourists, are you beyond insane bringing six small children into this mess? What inbred backwater are you from that you don't have more sense than this? Stand the fuck clear."
3. If the FDA bans vicodin, does the one I have left from my concussion become a collectible? And what will happen to House?
4. The Lieutenant Governor of South Carolina is vaguely hot (purple robe notwithstanding). Yo, Andre, if you need a beard and/or political wife, I'm willing to relocate. I have excellent manners, hair that can be styled in a Jackie-O-esque way, and I know how to keep my mouth shut.
*Apologies to those of you who have seen/heard some of these elsewhere

It just wouldn't do for me to comment on Lt. Gov. Bauer's alleged hotness; will take your word for it. Speaking for myself, I tuned out when I read that he would be "praying for he and his family." This sort of thing might drive you over the edge after hearing it daily.
(Another random thing: Don't know if you've caught Food Network's new show, "The Best Thing I Ever Ate" -- food-TV personalities recall pretty much what it says, on a different subject in each show. The one I saw last night was "the best thing I ever ate... with bacon.")
When I go on vacation somewhere I try not to be on any major roads or subway between 4 - 6:30 or so. Let the locals get home after work. I once told an FT (the T stands for tourist) that this isn't Disney World and that people actually live here.
And as to the litiginous asshat, that is unfortunately and all too common reaction these days.
Omigawd, those subway messages are too funny. NY and Boston need them desperately.
What's up with that purple robe, anyway?
Wait, you know how to keep your mouth shut? Really? What about sarcastic raising of the eyebrows and exasperated eye rolls, do they count? Just wondering... --teh Jeebs
"And they can replace the comment about allowing passengers to exit before you try to get on with 'you stupid fucking tourists, are you beyond insane bringing six small children into this mess? What inbred backwater are you from that you don't have more sense than this? Stand the fuck clear.'" I'm on board. Pun intended.
Oh god, if the FDA bans Vicodin, I may be out of a job.
Damn, that sounded kinda bad, didn't it?
JES: I think depending on the arrangement we came to, I could force myself to overlook the grammar.
rob: I wish all travelers were that considerate. Alas
el: I don't know. I have to assume he's at choir practice, or graduating from something. Or . . .is a judge in the Gilikin Country in OZ (that was the purple one, right?)
Jebus: HEY!. . ..but yeah.
Vittoria: wah-wah.
spoonie: I'm just out of happy, I guess.
That could give House the boost in writing/plot creativity it's been needing!
