Stupid people annoy me more than I can put into simple words. Drunk people are obnoxious to me in a way that defies explanation. When stupid people get drunk, the chaotic mixture is one that pisses me off faster than the time Jimmy Gorin punched me in the nuts and stole my baseball cards. The magnitude of retardation possessed by the idiot children at my company astounds me. Most of all, the lack of common sense is staggering -- how the fuck have they made it this far in life without the sense God gave a retarded June bug?!
The company party last night was, in my opinion, a raging disaster. The place was stupidly over-crowded. Just so you know, the official office party for the company that put out a certain new music-based video game couldn't get controllers that worked either. Take some comfort in the small fact that our hardware is shit, too. That, combined with shitty parking and immature children abusing the open bar policy as if they'd just discovered alcohol resulted in at least one fight, at least one arrest, and as many different kinds of hangovers as there are people.
We had to have a debate this morning about kicking out one of our roommates. I voted in favor of throwing his stupid ass out into the street, taking his house key and throwing his clothes out the window after him. It was also raining this morning. Far from deterring my decision, this gave me an extra sense of glee. There was vomit and ... something else in the tub this morning. All I wanted was to get up and take a shower and go to work -- but that didn't happen. I had to come in extra early and shower at work.
In other, unrelated news, a friend basically wrote me off last night. After getting home last night I checked my email before crashing out, and there was a little missive from a friend telling me how disappointed she was in me that we couldn't meet up the other night. So disappointed, in fact, that she told me that I was basically wasting her time and that we won't be hanging out anymore. Pity. I really liked spending time with her. Guess she wasn't much of a friend if she's going to write me off the first time we can't meet up. Too bad. Regina Spektor will never sound quite the same.
So, the lesson here kiddies is that you're damned if you do, and damned if you don't -- so do as much as you can and have fun and live your lives as if it really matters. Just don't be stupid. 'Cause guess what? The last time you saw her might really be the last time you ever saw her.

P.S. As a post-script to this story, one of the arrested individuals actually showed up for work today. I was stunned. He has his arm in a cast. I can't believe he could look anyone in the eye. How embarrassing for us as a company and for him as an individual. What is wrong with the world?
