6-17-07 Annoyance

Todays annoyance is being asked for donations

Recently, I was at a store that rhymes with "shmall-vart." I had successfully completed my mission of obtaining skewers, diet coke, and light-bulbs. (Don't ask) And while loading my things, a large woman with a clip-board came over and asked something like, "Excuse me, but would you like to donate to the handicapped old people, kittens, puppies, and small children with critical diseases educational and prevention fund?" So I'm faced with a dilemma; I'm a terrible person if I ignore her, but if I say no I'm practically a murderer! So naturally I caved and donated and I received a tiny purple ribbon. As the ribbon sat on my dashboard I got more and more annoyed. "I have a right to load my groceries in peace! I don't appreciate being heckled at shmall-vart! So, I thought about suing, but my lawyer said I was a freak. He says that a lot.
