Things that frustrate us all

I am disposing of an old mattress and box base. I call for bulk pick up. I have to wrap the mattress and base in plastic so that they will pick it up.

I understand their reasons. Bugs and bodily fluids. Valid. Somebody else's used mattress is gross.

However, purchasing enough plastic for the task simply to throw all of that plastic away really, really rankles me.
 
Encountering crazy nutjobs while out getting food.

So, I am walking up to a local store. A guy on a bicycle pulls u and walks it inside the store. I could see just by his face he was a nutjob psycho.

I get in about two minutes later and head for the isle I wanted -- snacks and drinks. Boom -- there he is at the end, being assisted by am employee. He got what he wanted and started back towards me, with the employee not far behind.

He looks at me and instantly starts rambling crazy shit, something about "Why you following me around spying on me and shit?"

I just couldn't be bothered by it, didn't even flinch and just shot back, "Who the fuck are you?".

I he some more crazy shit back at me, and I again didn't give a fuck and replied back something like, "You fucking crazy psycho."

These fuckers are everywhere.



And the crazy "homeless" girl I wrote about like a week ago, man, she went off last night. #2 in the list of crazy rants she's done.

So, she fished some receipt paper out of the trash, smoked something, and then spent half an hour ranting like somebody who needs some nice young men in clean white coats to come and take them away.

She rants and raves about somebody selling drugs and making her do it, how she doesn't need her shit since she's got a job and three to five million dollars (and a lawn chair she had to have stolen). Ah huh.

Then her argument with somebody how is not there takes a turn for the wild when she starts yelling and threatening that person to get the fuck out of her mind. "Get the fuck out!". More insane rambling and yelling. "Get the fuck out of my body!" followed up not long after that with, "Go on, GO -- RUN!!!"

Then she spent another about 25 minutes rambling and arguing quietly.

This might be a sign that you should move.
 
Crazy homeless girl went on a wild rant about somebody stalking her, grabbed a stick and started beating some guy repeatedly with it. He didn't even call the police, just said karma will get her.
This reminds me a year or so ago I saw someone who was having an overdose in the grass next to a parking lot. The police were called and that person was taken away, presumably to the hospital.
 
Oh yeah, and the homeless veteran I talked about a number of posts back, she stole almost all of his food yesterday while he was away. He wanted to sit there and take it (not have her go off on him), I did not. I waited for her to go walk away, grabbed her shit, retrieve his food. She already ate a good deal of it. I won't stand by and let her do that.
 
I guess I've been lucky. The only encounter I've had with a crazy person in the last thirty years was when a young woman kept ringing my doorbell at 2 o'clock in the morning, saying she was there to meet someone with a long Greek-sounding name. I couldn't get her to leave, so I called the police non-emergency number. It seems this woman had been ringing doorbells up and down my street, so the cops were already out looking for her! They came fairly quickly and gently persuaded the woman to come with them. Said they would take her to UCLA Psych for observation.

And no, I don't know any Greeks.
