    I walked past a dead baby seal at GG this week-end that looked like it was mauled by an orca.

    it was a thought-provoking encounter which I did not complain about.

    Reeses peanut butter cups would also escape criticism. Even if you microwaved them in a tortilla, it may pass as Thai food.

    I snickered at the kexp reference. That's something my brother and I laugh and complain about. Some of their djs take themselves and the bland music they play way too seriously.

    gracie: I think Trump is relatively benign, yes he's a pompous ass, but he is so clueless that he only appeals to the clueless. In fact, is there anything he's in favor of that hasn't been hampered by his involvement? Maybe he is really a leftist subversive!

    I would not complain if the norovirus disappeared. Or if it appeared under Trump's toupee.

    Saw "beautiful women" posted above, many reasons to complain! -- not enough of them, they don't seem to like me anyway, often after they start talking you wish they hadn't, many live life as if every door gets held open for everyone, so f-ing annoying when they are also super smart and super nice.

    And world peace -- as a phrase it suck because people who think they're glib pun off it on bumper stickers - "whirled peas" wasn't really funny the first time I saw it. And the punning continuum from the phrase World Peace to Visualize World Peace to Visualize Whirled Peas to Visualize Ballard makes me want to kill somebody. Which must mean world peace isn't actually possible.

    There - I can complain about most things this should be fun.

    That snowy owl brings out the braggart in people -- just try to take a walk down 34th without some pride-beaming blow hard needing to point out to you that the crowd of people gawking skyward are not possessed but looking at something interesting. You know, there's a snowy owl up there, you ought to check it out." Thanks, now I guess I owe you one?
