It's Easy! Step 1-3 How Did It Get So Convoluted?

I am not going to rant for a long time I promise.
I am just wondering why it's always the simplest of instructions that people will mess up?
I mean it's really not hard.

I needed some one to literally complete a three step process and deliver the end result to me so that I can get my work done.

Instead it turned into a 30 step process with lots of tangents.
I am completely uninterested in people some days, I guess this is one of them. I'm shocked at how people just can't do what is asked of them with out making a production of every little thing.

In the case that you may think that I am actually talking about something that was complicated and calling people out for the sake of calling them out, you're wrong.
Here is what I had requested to be completed.

Step1:
Print it out.
Step 2:
Sign it.
Step 3:Drop it off.

That's it. Print it out, sign it, drop it off.
Let's all say this together.
Print it out, sign it, drop it off.

I swear. That's it.

Print it out, sign it, drop it off turned into... well a whole lot more and it makes me wonder how people can find their way out of their house in the morning, let alone find their way to work... or even how they make it through a day at work...
How do you become a business owner?
WTH???
I quit.

Sigh.

iPad Seriously?

I would like to get back the time I spent getting live updates, and watching CNET for the release of the iPad. (yup that's what Steve and the gang are calling it)

Honestly I wasn't sold. I'm not sure what I expected but, it must have been more than what they've come up with.

It's a larger version of the iPod touch, and some of the versions will have 3G. meh.

I think my Facebook status said it all...

"Just back from Morning meeting, had a minute to catch up on iPad (yes that's it's name) release, and frankly.. I'm not thinking it's all that awesome... It's just a larger version of the iPod/iPhone... No OLED screen. It's definitely better than a Kindle, but seeing as I have an iPhone, and a laptop... It's not something I would invest in. #fail. Just saying. Now back to paperwork and phone calls."

Did you know that as far as Twitter discussion trends go iTampon ranked higher than iPad? It's true.

The word iPad didn't even make it to the top 10... at all.

It's sad.

I'm sure people will be putting up their kindles for sale on Ebay, but that's not saying much.

I wouldn't have bought a Kindle either.

Just saying.

OMG I cant believe this...

I am watching The Dog Whisperer and I can't believe what I'm seeing. First of all the show is focusing on ill tempered and spoiled chihuahuas. This one chihuahua is named El Diablo, and is dominating like 6 pitty's... WTF????
How is this even possible. El Diablo weighs 5 freaking pounds.
I'm glad to see that this show generally shows pit bulls in a positive light. I think it's good for the message "Punish the Deed not the Breed"
If I had the room I would absolutely adopt a pit bull, but I don't have the room in my condo and since the government here in Ontario passed the ban on pit bulls there are fewer and fewer of them. I think it's sad.

Also can I say how sad it is that some one in Northern Ontario can own a tiger which has mauled a little boy, and then him (it's owner), but I can't own a pit bull. Just sayin.

Never talk to the cops. Part 2

This is not a rebuttal, as I thought it would be.
This police officer is actually telling you "Don't talk to the police" interesting.

Never talk to the cops.
