Survival of the Fittest.
Posted on January 18, 2004 in RantsWhen driving to work once in a while its not uncommon to get caught behind a school bus that seemingly stops for 10 minutes every 25 feet. The thing that upsets me is how the world has to stop when picking a child up. Last week when following a bus, it stopped at a house. Flipped on its "The World Needs to STOP" sign then continued to wait about 4 minutes while the kid finished brushing his teeth . The mother came outside to let the bus driver know to wait, and to make everybody late to work because her kid is remedial and dosent know how to dress himself.
I understand the cars behind the bus shouldn't be able to pass, but to stop traffic in both directions while I wait for someone to finish their Cheerios' is insane. I bet you any amount of money that if some retarded kid came darting out of his house, missed the door of the bus and was clipped by the USS Escalade all the other kids on the bus would look 4 times before they ever entered the street. Survival of the Fittest
Another thing, those little plastic clips that they put over wall sockets… take them off after a few dances with 220 volts, a child will learn not to stick his wet booger-ridden finger into it.
Natural selection is supposed to weed out the slower people of the human race allowing the rest of us to accelerate and live more fruitful, less irritating, lives.

Couldn't have said it better...nice one! Care to comment on the elderly that feel the need to drive (if you want to call hitting your brakes so many times that it looks like their friggin flashers are on)?
That is a totally seperate post to be created.
Old people need to be tested ever year or two after 80. Without a doubt.
Eric, I did not like this piece. It sounded like you are quite mean and ignorant. You can do much better than that. Please remove that post. Let us Pray...
I understand what your saying, but rather shielding the eyes of our childern. Shouldn't they be taught the right way to do things rather them be ignorant to the fact that its dangerous to do certain things.
I was taught not to run into the street and run with scissors. I didn't have plastic covers on my wall sockets. Neither did you big buddy, and we turned out ok. I had a buddy whos mother was way to over protective and he has trouble today making correct decisions on his own. Very sad actually.
You learn more by making mistakes than from never encountering a problem.
Obiously I dont want children to get injured. I just think that they should be taught the right ways to do things.
Well, this isn't exactly true. I know a certian individual who loves to stick metal objects into an electrical socket. I have seen him do this very thing on mnay ocasions. Its pretty funny, He has not learned his lesson yet. Yea bill, you know im talking about you. LOL
