Six things that need a time-out

This post is inspired by  Mama Kat.

My list of Six People or Things that Need to Take a TIME OUT:

1.  Daft Punk's "Get Lucky." How the heck many times do they repeat "get lucky" or "get some" in this song? It's as annoying as the "na-na's" in that Journey song. Yes, I bet you're singing it now, too.  For a good laugh, check out Stephen Colbert's version of "Get Lucky."  Stephen Colbert does NOT need a time out, just so you know.

2.  This song, "Blurred Lines."  Please, radio stations, can we quit giving this air time? If you do, I'll take the video off this blog.

3.  Any store that has Halloween merchandise on display.  It's not even September people, will you knock it off, for frick's sake?

4.  People who park in the handicapped parking who do not have the proper permit in place, and that includes people who do have the permit in place but not the person the permit is for.  When you do that, it's called fraud, and you can face heavy fines.  Check out Stolen Spaces: How Handicap Drivers are Cheated in Metro Detroit and make sure you watch the video, too.  

5.  Manufacturers who insist on making slacks (pants) that hover well below the belly button, approaching the pubic bone of the wearer.  Please - this look is so nasty on everyone, even if they're built like Barbie. Stop it, already. I don't need to see plumber's crack on pre-pubescent girls or boys let alone the adults. I don't know how the criminal element gets away with anything when they're dressed like that.  If you pulled your pants up, you could run faster.

I don't care to know if you're a boxers, briefs,
 or thong kind of guy, either.

6.  People who use their cell phones for personal things when they're at work.  You definitely need a time out. I think that offenders' phones should be placed in a locked box until it is break time.  There's nothing more annoying than to have to wait for an employee to finish their personal business - "O M F G! A CUSTOMER! I'm on FACEBOOK for CHRISSAKES, can't they see I'm BUSY?" - so you can obtain some service.  This crosses all professions, not just those who are clerks in department stores or gas stations.  Medical personnel, educators, serving staff at restaurants - there are many guilty parties.  Sorry - you shouldn't be getting paid to play online.  Hang up the damned phone and get back to your JOB.
