I Thought I Lived In Alberta, Apparently, I Live In Kentucky.
So I'm driving to work this morning, and I'm following this white pick up truck. The back of the truck is loaded with cardboard boxes and there was also a poor dog stuck riding in the back. I can honestly say I really hate when people transport their dogs in the backs of pick up trucks. How much more irresponsible can you be with your pet?? But that's a tangent for another day. Getting back to this truck, the bumper and back window of this thing were covered in stickers. Not just stickers, but perhaps the WORST stickers I've ever seen. Most of these stickers were just dumb, but one offended me. He had several stickers relating to beer and hunting, and my personal favorite was on the lift gate right in the middle under the handle. It said "My those boobs look heavy, can I hold them for you?" doesn't that SCREAM class? I chuckled and thought "loser", and then... it happened, I saw... IT. The sticker that made me decide that I hated the douche driving the pick up truck. It was a sticker that stated his position on the issue of gay marriage. He was opposed. I should say that the sticker itself didn't have offensive words on it, it just said "Marriage= Man + Woman" HOWEVER, I do find his views on the issue extrememly offensive. Call me crazy, but I just don't understand how in this day and age, that people can think that its OK for certain groups to have all the rights and freedoms in the world, while other groups only selected rights that should be afforded to EVERYONE. I do realize that we live in a free country, and that people should be able to express their views openly and freely, but that very same freedom also allows me to hate him and his outdated, irresponsible hillbilly views. I'll bet you this is they type of guy who "Works for the weekend", working 9-5 in some crappy job that requires him to literally get his hands dirty, where he then goes home to his run down house with the brown patches in the lawn, his Dude Beer(yes such a product really exists) and his big haired wife, who also happens to be his sister. When will people wake up and realize that there is just no place for closed mindedness like that in this world? Anyways, I ranted, now I'm done.
