Sissified
Yes, we as Americans have become sissified, to the max even.
When the cleaning lady came to our office, as she does every Wednesday, this week, I asked her how she was doin, as I always do, and she said she was draggin because she had to run out of the house without having that all-important first cup of coffee in the morning. If we are asked to do ANYTHING, let alone speak coherently, before having our first cup of coffee in the morning, such a request is met with a bad word, an outstretched middle finger or just plain ignored. Or, if you're a man, you get "the look" from your wife/girlfriend. You know what "the look" is, and I know you don't want it.
When we go to any store, shopping center or mall and are greeted by an overcrowded parking lot, some would rather sit and wait for a spot that someone is taking their sweet fucking time backing out of for FOREVER rather than take an already-empty and just-as-inviting spot father away which would require you to get off your fucking ass and walk a little farther. Not to mention that even if someone has to go somewhere that's even a block away, they'll jump in the car and drive there, rather than actually WALKING a block. Is it so hard?
It just amazes me how fucking lazy people are. Everything designed today is to make things easier and faster, but in turn is it making us a buncha lazy fucks? We barely need to get off our couches anymore - we can watch movies, sports, anything we want on TV, we can order in any kind of food imaginable, we can find out anything we want to know (whether accurate or not) on our computers. As much time as spend watching TV and surfing the net.... I was thinking - if I were to get into an accident and get paralyzed, and be forced to live out my life in a wheelchair with very limited mobility, would my life really change that much (other than obviously having to skip the gym workouts)? Sad!
