Shut up!

Damn it man!  Don't you get it yet?  No one is listening to you!  How the hell do you wake up and within two minutes you're yelling at the top of your lungs about your views on Chavez in South America?  Can't you tell by the fact that no one even turns their head to look at you that no one gives a flying fuck what you think?  So why the hell do you, instead of shutting your fucking mouth, get louder and louder?  No one gives a damn and all you're doing is disrupting everyone else.  Fuck.  This is the problem with living with other people.

Asshole That Complains About Having No Money, But Blows Their Whole Check In One Night, Every Time

So, there's this asshole I know that always complains that he doesn't have any money for anything.  He just sits at home, doing nothing.  He never leaves the house.  He doesn't work.  He doesn't read.  He just watches shit TV.  He doesn't even watch good TV.  Watching the news seems to bother him.  Watching anything educational is beyond him.  He just sits around all day, every day, watching the same shit talk shows continuously.  He collects a check, somehow, from the government.  He was never in the military.  I don't know how he qualified.  It's not like he can't work.  He just doesn't.

Now, as if all of that weren't enough, towards the end of every month he runs out of money.  This wouldn't mean anything except he has a smoking habit.  So, when he runs out of cash he bitches and whines and complains nonstop about everything.  He wants to make sure that everyone around him is having a bad time, simply because he has no sense when it comes to financial planning.

When his check comes in, you'd think he'd stash some right?  You'd think he's having this problem because he doesn't get enough to support his habit and live comfortably, but no, that's not the case.  As soon as his check comes in, he puts on a pair of pointy, polished shoes, a jacket, and a gayly wrapped scarf and goes out to blast through his whole check on a slot machine and booze.  He does this every single month.  It's always the same routine.  He never wins anything.  He goes home blasted out of reality and passes out.  Then, the next day, he's already broke.  Whatever little bit he manages to hold onto he spends on cigarettes, but it's never enough.  Really, within a week and a half he's out of smokes and bumming from everyone around him again.

It's fucking pathetic.  Not because he's having a hard time or because he's bumming smokes, though that is kinda sad, but because he knows the reason he has to do this every month, but he doesn't do anything to change it to make sure he has enough finances to last through the month.

By the way, this check I'm talking about?  This money that he pisses away on a slot machine and booze every month?  That's not a retirement check.  That's your US tax money hard at work. =)
