today's rant: deaf pussy and his stupid bitch of a mom, originally 1/4/07

i happened to wake up at 8:30 this morning.  that's an immediate sign that a bad day is forthcoming.  nothing good can come out of waking up that fucking early.  you're just waiting for something bad to happen when you're up that early.  so, i tried to make the best out of the situation and educate myself as to the events in my area.  in comes News 12, all long island news all the time.  of course, that doesn't seem feasible.  the only reason for their existence is to repeat the same stories every thirty minutes.  sometimes it's worse than that.  for the past 3 days (144 segments), they've shown video footage of an asshole robbing a house.  there's hardly anything else happening on LI, so they remind us just how in danger we are on a constant basis.

this morning, there was a story about a high school freshmen in westbury who is hearing impaired.  for the past two days, his high school has not let his helper dog into the school.  his mom was on camera talking about how the principal of the high school made him and his dog wait 30 minutes outside in the cold for his interpreter to show up to tell him that his dog wasn't allowed.

first, the obvious:  what the fuck does a deaf kid need with a helper dog?  he's not blind, he's deaf.  what the fuck does having the dog accomplish?  does the kid read the dog's lips when it barks?  *bark, bark!*  "i on't undertand ooo!"  does the dog take notes for him?  where's the fucking interpreter?  it's way fucking easier.  his mom argued that the dog can inform the kid if a fire alarm goes off or if there is a siren around.  if there's a fire alarm, wouldn't you just follow everyone else?  if there's a siren, you see the flashing lights down the street before you ever hear it.  if he wants to be alarmed when there's an emergency, just wrap a shock collar around his balls and connect it to the fire alarm.  i guarantee, he will be the first fucker out of the building.

next:  waiting outside in the "cold" for 30 minutes.  i don't know what his mom was smoking this morning, or maybe she was drinking because that makes you colder.  it...was...not...cold...today.  it has been the warmest day in the past three weeks.  i was wearing a tattered zip-up sweatshirt and was sweating by the time i got to work.  the worst it could've been this morning is 40.  if this kid walks outside in january without a proper coat, he's not only deaf; he is retarded.

don't expect any sympathy, you asshole.  you don't need a fucking dog.  deal with it, pussy.
