Flat rates from Cambridge to Logan include tip. Taxi drivers love to charge them because most people don't know that.

Why is the world so judgemental? My husband passed away two months ago. I had the happiest life in the world with him, and suddenly all of the happiness and joy in my life has been snatched away. I can't bear it anymore. I hate being a widow. Now that I know the joy of love and married life, I don't want to live any other way. I want to date again. I still love my late husband, and I will always love him, but I can't bear all of the saddness, mourning, and lonliness of being a widow. The thing is, people expect a widow to wait for a long time, like a year before dating again. Anyone who starts dating immediately after their husband passes away is seen as trashy and desperate. Well those people should try walking in my shoes before judging me. All I want is to be happy again, like I was. Why is it such a crime to want happiness again? To want all of this emptiness and sorrow to go away? I met a wonderful man, a handsome, moral, family-oriented doctor who's interested in me. I mentioned it to my family, and they were horrified and want me to reject him and not even consider dating for at least a year. So I have to be sad and lonely and in mourning for a whole year, and reject this wonderful man who would be great for both me and my children. Why is the world so judgemental?! Divorced people can begin dating right away. Why are widows expected to be sad and alone? It's not fair. It's just not fair. It's bad enough I just lost my wonderful husband, but to not be able to seek happiness for at least a year just adds to my misery. Why doesn't my family understand that?

So I had a lot of pictures on my iPhone and I thought I'd put them
into my iPhoto to upload them to Flickr, but then when I uploaded them
to Flickr the geotags were gone so I deleted them from Flickr, and also
from iPhoto, problem was I also deleted them from the phone when I
synced with iPhoto, a whole days worth of stupid bad photos gone :(

I am so angry about the laziness of my flatmates!!! I put up with so
much, I don't complain when they turn our flat into a fucking pigsty
even though I'm paying a shitload for it. But it has gone past that -
my flatmate was sick on the living room floor two days ago and still
hasnt cleaned it up, even after me asking him to do it today!!! ON WHAT
FUCKING PLANET IS THIS ACCEPTABLE???? Even dogs avoid living around
their sick. THIS IS A FUCKING JOKE, who the fuck does he think he is?!

OMG! ok so today was a bad day from the start. I had to wake up early ON MY SATURDAY to go to school for something mandatory. I live 40 min away from my school, am not old enough for my license and my mom thought it would be a good idea to leave the house 10min before I had to be at school... As if showing up late and getting lectured on the evils of tardiness from my teacher wasn't bad enough(I had to help with a mass)... BUT the whole time my mom is VIDEOTAPING me and the group I was working with!! All the girls in my group were freaking out over the PSYCHO MOM who was following us around and taking pics of us. And of course in slandered cliche high school fashion, laughed cracked jokes when they found out it was MY MOM WHO WAS THE F-ING PSYCHO! oh and that wasn't bad enough. The whole trip there and back she was ranting on at me like it was MY fault I was late because SHE was topless and putting on makeup when I needed to be at SCHOOL. Oh and thats not bad enough. I come home, get changed into regular clothes and guess what? She finds the need to INSULT me further! not like the trips there and back weren't a nightmare in themselves. She looks at me and says, "Why don't you wear any feminine clothes? You look like a man." And if you haven't guessed YES I AM A GIRL!!! then after my look of horrified shock I try to lighten my anger with a joke about how any guy would love to have as great an ass to which she replies "You don't have an ass, its flat. That's why you can fit into those jeans. You do have a gut though, get to the crunches" I can't even make this shit up. Then after I storm to my room, angry from the worst morning I've had in a long time to hear her call up, "Hey Cara, come out to the store with me." HOW ABOUT A FUCK NO! HOW ABOUT YOU LEAVE ME ALONE YOU DUMB BITCH AND LET ME HAVE some PEACE! Oh and here's the icing on the shitty-day cupcake, I was doing my nails the night before and I accidentally left the bottle open because I stopped quickly due to a headache. Guess what she spills all over the floor and makes me feel guilty about? Yeah, the fucking nail polish. And she can't wait for ME to move out. Fuck, I can't wait to put her ass in a home.

I wish every single out of town yuppie and hipster would go back to wherever the fuck it is they came. Last night, they were drinking beer on the train which is illegal and acting like it was a frat party. One even had the classic beer shirt on while holding a beer. If only a cop would have came on the train. Newsflash, cousin-kisser, EVERYONE knows the paper bag with the beer bottle neck sticking out. You're not fooling anyone.
And what the fuck with people being so irresponsible for simple things? It rained ALL fucking day yesterday. Bring an umbrella and stop using mine because you know I'll have one. Get your fucking mouth off my water bottle because you can't buy your own and no I don't have money to borrow so you don't have to break a twenty.

Dear IT department:
I am your customer, aka another division in the company. I am the part of the company that relies on the computer to do my job and deal with external customers on a daily basis.
You, on the other hand, are located in some other part of the world and I can't even understand you. You talk in your robotic accented dialect, and then get frustrated when I ask you to repeat yourself. And after I am on hold for about 15 minutes, you tell me that you will escalate my problem and give me a damn ticket number. Thanks a lot numbnuts! That is really helping me when I have external customers yelling at me and wanting me to fix something!!
Useless IT department!

You know what? Journalists think you're stupid. I can't speak for every country (and based on the insane-gibberish slang on some of these posts, at least a few of you "wanks" are from the UK or another of those Mr. Bean-sounding countries), but in the good old U.S. of A., every reporter in every newspaper thinks you're a gibbering simp. You know how I know? Because I'm a reporter.
For going on eight goddamned years, I've listened to editors whittle out every bit of individuality or expression in copy on the pretext that "our readers won't understand this." I've heard reporter after reporter use the term "Bubbas" for the people who obliged THEM by appearing in THEIR person-on-the-street quote. You're walking down the street and a reporter accosts you with a question? You're going to be called a "Bubba" later. The slang for a story that will be discussed the next day is a "Hey, Martha!"
Reporters are told to write at a third-grade level because they think you won't understand otherwise. When I started, it was a sixth-grade level.
First of all, you doctors and lawyers and manual laborers who just read a lot, you're not stupid. In fact, you're probably a lot smarter than most of these reporters at American newspapers if for no other reason than YOU'RE NOT A REPORTER AT AN AMERICAN NEWSPAPER!
Secondly, none of these assholes connect their disdain for their readers with the sorry state of American media. Oh, you treat your readers like morons? How's that working out for you?
I'm applying for a job with this one newspaper, a daily that decides ponderous "storyteller" copy is the key to success. And I have to write an essay as part of the application. I'm later told by the M.E. that my essay was good even though at the beginning she thought it was going to just be me pulling out every big word I knew.
I used the words "emote" and "intuit." I wouldn't call them big words. But this is the level of people you're dealing with. These are people who consider themselves both populist and smarter than everybody else.
Journalism is a draining, bitter job. How the hell do these people do it when they think their audience is too stupid to understand their pearls of wisdom?
