    Snooty, judgemental nurses and diabetic educators who probably have been size zero their whole lives and talk condescending to people who have weight problems.

    Smack Down!

    I had one literally treat me like I am mentally challenged. I almost had "medical manic rage", she is lucky there were no objects in my reach. I considered bashing her with the food log, wishing it was a substantial redwood log. I quashed the random thought and focused on her chirpy voice, high pitched, like a small rodent. And considered my response to her question, "Did I understand "CICO"?".

    ^^^^just ask to work with someone else. If anyone asks why, be blunt and honest about it.

    If you are aware of anyone committing fraud with regard to SSD, TANF, SNAP, Section 8 Housing, or any other government program you can report it to the authorities. I think the problem with people thinking there are "too many handouts" is that people like to complain about fraud but never do anything substantive about it.

    NUTELLA.

    Why do I become irrationally angry over Nutella, you ask? Because it's freaking candy masquerading as a food option. Do I care if everyone eats candy for every meal? No, that's the ideal. I frigging love candy.

    But don't sell the candy as a healthy food option to get kids to eat breakfast and whatnot. "My kids would never eat breakfast and were totes starving. Then I found this magic spread called Nutella, and now the little chubbers* won't stop eating breakfast. It's a miracle!"

    You know what else is a breakfast "miracle" when your kids won't eat? Ice cream. But does ice cream do this nonsense? Of course not. Ice cream is honest about its intentions. Nutella needs to take a note from ice cream and just be real about itself.

    Nutella, you are not a breakfast staple. Get over yourself and just be the delicious treat that everyone wants.

    That Nutella thread totally inspired this.

    *No, I'm not saying that eating Nutella will make you fat if you are in a deficit, etc., etc.

    Nutella makes me angry for another reason. I refuse to eat it because of the hoopla surrounding it. I did cave to the equaling hoopla around Quest bars though.

    Confession: I have never eaten Nutella because of its lieeessssss. I have eaten other similar products due to their tastiness. If Nutella would act right, then maybe we could be together. But ATM, nope, Nutella.

    Nutella :love: I just eat it because I like it.

    Me too. I like it with Ritz crackers the best I think. I have also filled crescent rolls with it and baked them then sprinkled them with cinnamon and sugar. I did not pass this off as a health food though. I called it what it was, dessert. A delicious warm, crunchy, gooey dessert.

    Holy crap! With ritz crackers??? Yes please!

    Well, not if everyone felt like you did. If everyone did something instead of just complaining, then yes a difference could be made.

    I have mismatched coffee cups. I have the ones that go with my dishes, but then I have the ones I always use that are mismatched.

    So, I suppose you have never been in the supermarket while the person in front of you unloads two carts of groceries, and uses an EBT card to pay, but yet has an authentic Michael Kors bag, and designer clothing.... ? How do you report that?

    My daughter found designer boots at a Goodwill. One of my patients inherited a designer handbag when her mother died even though she could never afford to buy it herself. You can't judge people by the clothes they wear. You can just criticize them by the way they look. Pretty ugly, huh?

    FWIW, I work with impoverished people - the elderly, children, veterans, who use public assistance. I get angry that those who defraud those programs give those who really need help a broad brush that they get painted with. So when I hear people such as yourself moan and complain about such people, I often suggest they report them. 9 times out of 10, they pull out some vague story about seeing someone at the grocery store with some designer apparel on or who happens to have a cell phone and make all sorts of snap judgments about them.

    It is almost like the movie Groundhog Day.

    That's your opinion and you know what they say about opinions...... I doubt that someone would buy a brand new MK bag and take it to Goodwill... Give me a break! If more people would get off their damn lazy *kitten* and work, this country wouldn't have such a horrendous deficit! I understand there are legitimate people who are disabled and truly are deserving of such programs, but for every one that is deserving of the program, there are 15 that are not.

    If you have knowledge of fraud or abuse of government programs and do nothing - YOU are part of the problem. Have a nice day.

    I caught someone doing this. I said very loudly and flailing my arms "what are you doing? There's a bin RIGHT there!" They got all embarrassed and picked up thier trash and threw it out! Also what irritates me, picking up my dogs poop then carrying it for twenty minutes because the city doesn't have a bin in sight on my entire walk! How can the city emphasize poop and scoop yet not provide garbage bins at every corner?!

    The only irrational things that make me angry, happen at home. Everything else, is completely rational.

    Just move to anywhere in California. It's a pet poop everywhere free-for-all. 99% of dog owners don't pick up after their dogs. Every day, every single day, I see people walk their dogs and let them crap on the sidewalks. That is an observed 99%, so it isn't scientific, but it can't be far off. There is poop all over nature trails, sidewalks, city parks, hell I ran a neighbor out of my yard cuz he was about to let his dog crappy there. It started, "you have got to be f*****g kidding me! Get the f*** off my grass. You don't have anything to clean it up with? Do you?" Him no, sorry and hurried off.

    My coworkers not changing out the water tank when they empty it, and even more so when they open the kuerig 1.7 seconds before it completes the brew cycle! Really?! You can't wait less than 2 more seconds, so now when I go to make my cup, I have to finish your incomplete brew cycle, and wait for the tank to fill and heat when all that would have already been ready had you not been a complete *kitten*. And it's even worse because they're totally ignorant about it even being an issue.
