There are many times when I find myself thinking, "I should write a letter to the editor about that". Like when I see people spitting on the sidewalk. Or littering. Or driving like idiots on the highway. Or about the jackasses who go WELL above 40km down our street. Or any other act done by general idiots. I think it's the speeding down our street one that really ticks me off lately. Shandi has started to take off on us more and more, where she bolts across the street to say hi to some other dog. And I just cringe at the thought that what if these 18 year old douchebags were to be flying down the street right then...they wouldn't have a hope in hell of being able to stop.
But writing a letter would be futile because these morons who are spitting on the street or littering or driving like idiots don't have high enough intelligence to actually care about reading the paper. So all these letters to the editor are being read by people who already wouldn't do these things. It's like we're all just sitting in a circle, discussing the idiots and nodding our heads in agreement at how disrespectful they are. Meanwhile, nothing is actually being done to hold a mirror up to these jackasses to show them how stupid they are.
That's why I think I'm going to start leaving a carton of eggs on the wheelchair ramp. When I take Shandi out to pee (who, for whatever reason, only wants to pee in the front yard now so I have to put her on her leash so that she doesn't run away), I'll grab an egg or two and have it ready to whip it at the idiot speeders. Then, when they get out of their souped-up 1993 Neon with their LED license plates, their sideways hats and white sunglasses to give me shit, I'll politely inform them that egging is the least I would do to them if they ever hit my dog.
