Starting The NFL Draft at 4PM

Didn't this used to start at like noon or 1PM? Who thought it was a good idea to move this late in the day? It seems like the perfect event to start at 1 on a lazy Saturday - maybe enjoy a sandwich and watch the first round. Then as you get late in the day you're into the second and third round and you can shut it off. Now we start at 4PM, and let it go into dinner plans or maybe time to go out and actually enjoy Saturday night? The thought behind this must be that we need 3 more hours of speculation on trades and who is getting picked where, as if we didn't already have about 2 months of that talk. Attention NFL you are stupid.

Whoever Is Behind Me In The Checkout Aisle At The Supermarket

My wife and I have to go to the supermarket weekly to replenish our needs in the apartment and our lunch supplies so we don't need to buy lunch at work each day. Unfortunately this also replenishes our weekly supply of asshole viewing.
The worst part is usually when we are at the checkout line buying our foodstuffs. Once we put everything on the rotating thingy, then it is time to get into packing mode. My wife packs things (I suck at it) and I simply put it in the cart. At this point the person behind us in line will almost always crowd us and stand directly behind us, totally blocking the credit/debit card swipey thing. Why do these douchebags think we haven't yet paid for our food?? Obviously we can't pay until they are done scanning our items. So then, I have to ask them to move back so that I can swipe my card. To make things easier, these mother fuckers who are in my way of paying for my shit should just have to buy all my groceries.

Berman Bother - The Mets Lose Their CitiField Opener

Losing your first game in a brand new stadium is a Berman Bother. Even worse still is losing your first game in a brand new stadium to one of the worst teams in the majors last year. On a balk. Oh yeah, and giving up a home run in the first at bat to a cast off player who barely belongs in baseball. Let's hope this doesn't tarnish a beautiful new stadium.
