Door2Door Salespeople
Don’t you hate door to door sales people who want to sell piles of meat or frozen food or become your natural gas supplier promising savings or fill in the blank, including these religious groups who try to convert me into their way of thinking. HELLO! If I don’t have my morals and ethics together by now, I never will and no circus acts with handling poisonous snakes, walking over hot coals, people fainting as these “demons” are exorcized or other cheap parlor tricks are going to change that. I’m a recovering Catholic; you can’t guilt me anymore or try to baffle me with bullshit!
It’s a good thing I didn’t answer the door, I’m in the mood to be belligerent and since I don’t know you, I don’t f#cking care what bill of goods you’re trying to sell me or how many ways I’m going to tell you once, to get off my f-g property and put me on your “Don’t f-k with me list!” This 3’ high gate is made out of a 6’ high wooden privacy fence section, so you have to straddle over it; it’s on the porch for a reason and my dogs are pointing that out, unless you’re hard of hearing. (Did you notice one window screen has a wide hole sticking out from it, because SOMEONE like YOU didn’t leave and my Pit was going ballistic, while I was in the backyard working). STILL, this moron from Mars keeps ringing the doorbell! Never mind the dogs, beware of the OWNER! I need to put up a sign like that!
While I’m on a roll here, towards some of life’s frustrations and afflictions, there was last week when I was driving a friend to a medical appointment, as his van broke down. Coming off a major avenue, I had to stop as one of those mini buses nursing homes use was trying to maneuver out of the parking lot and I was stuck halfway out from the road, with another car behind me. I couldn’t move at first and wasn’t going to argue with the bus, so gave him plenty of space to exit. Meanwhile, this impatient asshole behind me keeps beeping his horn! At first it was like so what and then I was getting annoyed as he continued. I rarely respond to these situations, but I was NOT in the f#cking mood for this unprovoked behavior! My response, as I was able to gradually ease into the parking lot to this idiot was “HEY, CAN’T YOU READ THE [license] PLATE? IT SAYS DISABLED VETERAN, DO YOU WANT ME TO GO OFF ON YOU?” He drove in some other direction in the parking lot and never saw his car again, LOL, my friend and I laughed afterwards.

I am so glad that I live on a sparsely populated gravel road and that my lane is 3/10 mile long! Believe it or not, I still get the occasional door to door salesperson, but it\'s usually religion that they are selling and I have no problem thanking them and sending them on their way. It truly is a nuisance, though, and I consider it an invasion of my privacy!
I have finally moved so far out of town and in the boonies that they can\'t find me. I am so lucky.
I drive a full size extended cab truck. I\'m parked at the local little convenience store. This stupid woman gets out of her car, leaves the door open and proceeds to put gas in her car. She has me blocked. I can\'t leave with her door open. I so wanted to lay on the horn and tell her what a S**t I thought she was. As I finally drive past her little yellow car she cuts her eyes at me. The B knew exactly what she was doing.
Everybody wants to block the pumps to get as close to the door as they can. People are just rude,can\'t read and feel rules don\'t apply to them.
