OK, I will.

It's CRAP that it has taken so long to turn for the better for you.

Political Correctness is CRAP.

How long have I been retired?? Been retired for exactly nineteen (19) years this August. Have never been bored and I absolutely LOVE doing what ever the hell I feel like doing (within legal and moral limits of course) and wouldn't change anything. As far as going shooting by myself, no big deal at all because I hate to go to a range and have a neighboring shooter bending my ear with constant chatter. I go there to shoot and not to just bull shit. I am truly sorry to hear that you feel that retirement is not what it was "cracked up to be" but I for one, am totally happy and wish that I could have retired at a much younger age to have even more free time.
Hey, we had better enjoy our retirement while we still can.[Beer]

My roof leaks. That's crap.
My service porch (where the washer/dryer/water heater/etc. are) flooded during one of those wrath-of-God downpours, but I stayed at the girlfriend's house that night and so I can't tell if it came in through the garage that doesn't seal right or the drain that goes to the sewer that has flooded before, and therefore can't fix it. That's crap.
My water heater only gives me enough hot water for 20min in the shower (I don't take that long by myself, but the girlfriend stays over sometimes and joins me which makes the showers take a while). That's definitely crap.
My iPhone won't take a charge, so I'm stuck with this POS brick that I can't figure out how to use. That's crap.
My xbox died. That's crap.
Nobody has shown serious interest in my truck, even though its listed for a grand less than the next lowest one. That's crap.
Neither my xbox or phone are working after multiple attempts to fix them by a tech-genious buddy (who's fixed both products for others many times and is stumped). That's crap.
I can't find work because employers don't want to hire somebody that's only gonna be around for 4 months. That's crap.
I still have another 4 months till I ship out. That's crap.
Unless my girlfriend gets a new place or we get a place before I ship out, I have no clue what I'm going to do with my dog when I leave. That's crap.
Ants keep showing up in my house and I can't for the life of me figure out where they're coming from. That's crap.
I have to participate in a PT "assessment" today (see where you're at in preparation for a real PT test) "so the chubby's don't feel singled out" (reason given by Station Commander). Despite being one of the only ones (two of us) that regularly come within a few points of maxing our PT tests. That's crap.
I'm awake. That's crap.

I know this is mostly small stupid things, but I haven't had my coffee yet (read: I'm pissed of at the world and everything in it because I am not sleeping right now, and I haven't taken my medication for that... aka caffeine+nicotene).

There was some large accident on I-25 this morning HOURS before I had to be a work. I left my house with plenty of time to get to work. It took me 65 minutes to drive 12 miles. I could have ridden my bike to work faster. I was 35 minutes late. I lost my perfect attendance, and as a result, watched $400 extra come out of my paycheck while I went 10 miles an hour on I-25 for over an hour.

That's crap.

I'm pretty sure he cursed you dude

You know those times you're sitting in traffic and thinking, "Someone better have died up there!"?

Well, I think this was one of those times where someone actually did die. I'm just mad because the accident was cleaned up and the highway reopened at 6:15am. I didn't get on the highway until about 8:20am and didn't get to the "scene" until 9:20am, and it was STILL backed up! Quit reminding me about it.
