1- Non-compact cars in the compact cars stall:
I work at the Well's Fargo building and the parking is already such a pain. It's so freaking compact that I am literally always worried I am going to drive into a truck's hitch when I go around the corners. However, there are SEVERAL bonus parking stalls that are for "compact cars" only. Now, when I think "compact" I am thinking of, Mini's, Metro's, The Smart Car...I am kind of thinking the Passat is even a stretch here. Wanna know what is really a stretch? An Escalade, an F150, an H2, a Tahoe. I have seriously seen all these cars parked in the compact stalls, so to teach them a lesson I park right next to them and usually I park so close to them that they probably have to go in through the passenger side....I am never above teaching lessons....
2- Facebook Flare:
Am I the only one on the planet that isn't into facebook flare? Am I the only one not laughing? Seriously, stop: throwing snowballs at me, giving me wedgies, attempting to purchase me, giving me 2 extra minutes at lunch, throwing lambs at me. I'm REALLY not into it....
3-Transition Lenses
There is only one person in the world that I know can pull of the transition lenses. Her name is Joy and she works in my office. Everyone else, you look like a perv. I can't quite pinpoint what creeps me out about it, maybe its the fact that you are come indoors and it takes 5 minutes for me to be able to see your eyeball again. Or maybe its the fact that I can see your eye ball and every second it gets darker....and darker...until I can no longer see your eyeball. Where are you looking, what are you looking at? We have no idea! Like I said, I can't pinpoint it...but they totally creep me out. So company's, please stop making them. Consumers, please stop buying them.
4- Employees Must Wash Their Hands
Every time I see one of these signs it really grosses me out. For starters, what kind of world are we living in that we actually have to make it a law that employees have to wash their hands after going to the bathroom. It shouldn't be a law....it's called common courtesy or AKA personal hygiene.
And let's be honest, I have a hard time thinking that the employee at Taco Bell goes to the bathroom and is about to walk back to the taco station and passes the sign and thinks ,"Oh yeah, I am supposed to wash my hands before returning to work." Sorry, not happening. I assume they look at the sign and think...."Oh yeah, you can't tell em what to do. I'll show you....." Sorry, did I take this too far?
5- The "Bill Gates" email:
Folks, Bill Gates isn't going to share his multi-million dollar fortune with you by forwarding on the email. Caroline Gibson in North Carolina didn't really receive a check for $108,900 for forwarding the email. Microsoft doesn't need to track how emails forward. It's a hoax people....please stop sending me this email that has been circulating for about 8 years now.... My freshman year of college (2001) I forwarded it along to everyone I knew....I never received the check and I learned my lesson. For those still forwarding this email around, learn your lesson please.

I keep telling Ansen that the day I join Facebook is the day I have given up all my morals! I don't have time to blog, let alone facebook (espically after I see how much time Ansen spends). And second, I'm sorry, but I really don't care to connect with people I went to Jr High with in California (or even Utah for that matter) and haven't talked to since.
Though I hate the Bill Gates e-mail, I'm up for a e-mail **HUG** anyday and ready to forward it to 10 of my best girlfriends so that the internet karma world will give me a good day.
Have a good day. Ansen has stopped by twice, but missed ou both times. He'll be over again soon I'm sure.
amen.
You can make me laugh like nobody can! First of all so true about Facebook, do people really have time to take care of a fake garden? Honestly! The bathroom sign ditto! Shouldn't EVERYONE wash their hands? Is the Bill Gates email STILL going around? I got that like every year for the past 10 years! Love you Kate!
Kate, I have definitely been looking forward to another "Things That Must Go" entry! Hilarious and all so true.
Ha, funny Katie! I don't blog a lot but I love to follow yours on my once a month or so jaunt into the blogging world... I agree with most of what you said. The one I disagree with is the wash your hands signs. I live out in Wyoming now, and believe me there are people who I guarantee haven't been taught, no offense! If it helps one person wash their hands who is going to be handling my food, or shaking my hand, then it's worth it.
i hears ya. my mom has some "light" transition lenses and i had to have a talk with her about them at christmas! hers are honestly not bad, but i feel like i can't see how beautiful her blue eyes are!
and i just pretty much hate email forwards unless they are hilarious. end of story!
once again totally entertained! love you!
I am glad to hear I am not the only one not on facebook. I get a hard time about it to, and they tell me I am the ONLY one not on there. Now I know it's not true, and I am still holding my grounds on this one. I do not need, yet another time waster in my life! Thanks for your comment the other day. You are a sweetheart!
Okay, let's just stop any kind of touchy-feely email altogether. If it ain't funny, it just makes me throw up a little in my mouth.
Sorry, don't tell on me, no church emails either.
