Leaf blowers

I was out and about a few days ago, and I watched this guy waste 5 minutes using a leaf blower on a mess that would have taken him 2 minutes or less to do if he'd used a broom instead.

Yes, you could fill a whole dictionary full of the things that piss me off. But leaf blowers are one of those. Who invented this pointless waste of electricity? What was so difficult about a broom that they felt they had to invent the leaf blower? And if you've ever seen someone use one, you quickly realize it's the least efficient tool ever not only in terms of electricity use, but also in terms of personal energy output. He worked at least twice as hard wasting his time with the leaf blower than he would have with a broom.

There is literally no use for a leaf blower that would not be better done with a broom. Think about it; you can't even use the leaf blower when the leaves are wet!

Gun toting idiot

The news just now had a thing about a guy who walked past a school toting a fucking rifle. Without it being in a case, either. Then he acts all surprised and shit when the school freaks out and locks its doors. He claims he was just like going down to the gun repair store or something, but seriously, what a moron. BUY A FUCKING CASE FOR YOUR FUCKING GUN, DUMBASS! I see someone walking down the street carrying an un-cased rifle, I'm going to assume you're a nutcase on a gun rampage. In this society, anyone sane should assume the same thing. I mean really, there is literally NO GOOD REASON to have your rifle out of its case in the middle of town.

Honestly, the fact that he survived this idiocy is white privilege. Cops have killed loads of black people for cell phones and other harmless shit being confused for guns, and this idiot sashays down the street toting a rifle and ISN'T gunned down by a cop? Insanity!
