    JAMMco... its complicated...

    "Everything happens for a reason"... No it doesn't. Accidents happen. People are victimized. People die who weren't supposed to. Don't blame it on God, don't blame it on fate, don't sit back and pretend that an infant dying serves some greater purpose.

    Sometimes things just happen, and we are sad about it.

    "Have a nice day!" and "Don't work too hard!" are platitudes that annoy me. What's the point of working if you don't work hard? It would be a waste of time! And "have a nice day" is said so automatically that it's meaningless.

    "Let's dialog!"

    Who the f*** says that who isn't a complete jumped-up, greasy bell-end?

    I can't stand when they say - Well all you do is stand and smile all day - And that is just what they see - Because I'm running a register and we work hard
