What is with the massive amount of Ebenezer's roaming the streets? The one thing I really hate about this time of the year (outside of the temp.) is that people tend to morph into the most selfish bastards I've ever seen. Aside from nearly getting trampled to death every time I step foot into a store, people on the streets are just as bad. No "excuse me" when they barrel into you, no-just a look throwing daggers as if it was your fault for being there.
I went shopping today to finish up my Christmas shopping because frankly, I'd rather eat broken glass than go shopping after the 15th of December. Keep in mind that it is literally 2 degrees out with the windchill. There is a guy selling fundraiser candy for a local charity outside. When he asks me if I could buy some, I told him I'd catch him on my way out. Judging by the look on his face, he'd heard that one before.
True to my word, I headed over to his table when I was finished. There was a guy there looking at the stuff and blew up with "This is an outrageous price, why would I pay this when I can get it inside for half!" Now that poor guy was standing out there freezing his ass off to help other people. So I said loudly enough for the asshole walking away to hear, "I know people are dickheads-I'll take whatever $10 will get me". That jerkoff spun around and looked like he was going to punch me in the face. Well screw you asshole, just because your sitting so nice in your heated house with food on your table doesn't mean everyone else is. Some people just haven't got a clue. But, that's not really any excuse-go get a clue you sick son of a bitch.
