Current mood:

annoyed

Protesters
Ok. Today the Olympic Torch was scheduled to be carried along the street I work on. The closing ceremonies were going to be held across the street from the building I work in. Well, you know, the Olympics are being held in China this year and we can't let that happen without protesting. Or something. So. I was making deliveries in the building today and what did I see? I saw a group of bout 6 women wearing black tracks suits gathered around their Apple laptop. Ok nothing too weired about that right? Oh man. The back of their suits had Team Tibet 08 on them. Lord help me but I laughed so hard! I mean come on man. You with your expensive computer and your matching track suits, I'm sure you're really helping the cause. Well maybe you are, I don't know but Team Tibet? Oh man..You made me snort!

And then. Lord help me the customers. The Asian customers were so sweet and kind. The ones who came in with their "China stop the genocide in Darfur" hats? Stupid and annoying. I swear I had this woman wearing this hat come up to buy a roll. She had her designer jewelery and her free the people (or whatever) hat on took 5 minutes to decide which roll to buy then asked me if there was someplace to buy a piece of cheese in the building. HELLO! Did ya see the cheese shop RIGHT NEXT DOOR!!! I mean it's not like it's even a separate door! For Jesue sake we share walls! Oi. The funny and sad thing is she was not the only one to ask me this question. I saw more people wearing free Tibet and Free Darfur hats and shirts asking me what was in a sourdough baguette today and I'm thinkin, um, ok you can spell Darfur but you can't read the ingredients on the sign in front of you? Um, ok, let me read it to you... it says if you can't read this you can't buy it... or something like that...
