Friday Five

I haven't done much web surfing this week so here are the top 5 things I've learned this week.

1. I am a snob and I think I'm OK with that.  Cheesy bars, cheap drinks and bad language are not my idea of a good time.  I'd much rather old theatres, warm tea and a British accent.  I always thought that being a snob was a bad thing, but you just can't fight personal taste.

2. Elections just tick everybody off.  Whether you're on the winning side or the losing side, it's never over the morning after.  We're all forced to listen to arguments and complaints for days on end.  Really people?!  Christmas is coming!  Can't we just drop the bad attitudes in favor of some holiday cheer?

3. My tastes are so much different than my friends' and that's so annoying!  I'm fairly nerdy and I know that my entertainment choices reflect that, but there has to be people out there that at least like a few things that I do!  I'm pretty sure that attending performances of Shakespeare by myself would be pathetic.

4. I really don't get small talk.  It's an art form and like most other art forms, it requires practice.  But I really don't have the drive to practice.  Shyness really cuts into the whole meet new people part of my brain and messes with the small talk synapse. (at least that's what I'm telling myself...)

5. Conservatives are always going to think Liberals are idiots.  And while being called a "moron" or an "Obama-bot" (Really? who coined this term? It's ridiculous!) is getting really old, I must let it go.  Because if I don't, I'm going to give myself a stroke railing against these people who never learned the Golden Rule!
