I hate babies

So, I was going to start today off by blogging about crappy parents and their fucking crying babies while I am trying to sleep off 7 beers on my short T ride home from the Sox game last night. But then I noticed something on my walk to work: a bright, shiny, newly installed pay phone on the sidewalk.

A pay phone?!?! Aren’t those already obsolete? The only reason that I noticed the new pay phone, was that I had to do a double take to even realize what it was. It has been so long since I have seen a pay phone, I didn’t recognize it.

Everyone in America at this point has a cell phone, except for my mom and my dog. The only people that have a use for a pay phone are people committing crimes (I’ve seen it on Law and Order) and the homeless guy hoping there is a dime in the change part of the phone.

yeah the crying baby thing is a pet peeve of mine. I went to the mFA today to see the Hopper exhibit and people brought in tired hungry little babies that cried and screamed the whole time. Good thing I got the head set to drowned out the noise. Plus, babies don't appreciate art.

I bet one of those babies even puked on the art. Seriously, they should not be let out of the house until they are like 3. Then they are at least moderately cute.

I agree with you on that to some degree but then at about three they become little sob's and bratty as hell
