Voting YES on prop 8 doesn't make me a biggot

Posted by A. Perhaps in rantopinionLancasterAntelope Valley

A. Perhaps

Or a racist.

I've gotten into some heated arguments over prop 8 in the past couple of weeks. Most times I allow the opposing views to be said without interruption, but yesterday I was called a racist and a biggot for voting yes on prop 8. A comparison being made to the 1950's and segregation.

To the person who thinks that somehow they will get their viewpoint heard by calling others slanderous names or flying off the handle, I say take a minute to think before you open your yapp. The second you start spewing hate is the second I stopped listening to anything flying out of your mouth.

Idiotic red box DVD machines at the grocery store

Posted by MACdiva in rant

Have you seen these things? You rent a DVD for $1 for the day from a completely computerized machine found at the front of the grocery store. Pretty nifty, right? WRONG!

I admittedly used the red box machine a few times at my local Albertson's when it was brand new and thought it was swell.  Now that the machine has gotten a little more popular there is a line most times which blocks the entrance/exit. People are rude and decide to browse the full selection, read all the descriptions and talk on the cell phone while 5 people are waiting in line behind them. 

I suppose the ploy is to get people to shop instead of wait around in line at the redbox dvd machine and heck I fell for that in teh beginning! I found myself buying crap I didn't need just to avoid the line - only problem is, I get done checking out to see that the line is even longer.
