How lazy are you?

    What's that episode of The Simpsons in which Homer and Mr. Burns get teamed on the hike through the mountains. The first duo to the cabin gets something. Mr. Burns suggestions he and Homer take a "horseless sleigh." So they get to the cabin really early and start enjoying the snacks. So they're sitting in the chairs, feet kicked up, and instead of getting up to get some chip dip or something, Homer kicks the table with the heel of his foot until the dip is on his side of the table.
    Mr. Burns response: "I'm forever in your debt, sir." Or something like that.

    Anyways, that's the kind of laziness for which I strive.

    If I see a healthy person parking in a handicapped spot when I'm driving my stepfather around town, I hope one of you will bail me out of jail after I beat the lazy SOB who parked in the last spot senseless.

    There's lazy, and then there's thoughtless, self-centered turds.

    I generally call the cops -- especially at Walmart, where the only criteria for parking there seems to be fat and lazy

    Thanks. I somehow doubt my stepfather will be really happy with me at this point. :D
     
  6. used to be friends with a cop whose wife was disabled.

    He told me to call him, anytime, anyday, if I saw someone illegally parking in a handicapped spot.

    I was happy to oblige.

    Two stories:

    1) My wife learned her lesson about parking in these spaces a few months ago. She parks in an abandoned building's lot (old convenience store) and walks a block to work. She does it so she doesn't have to park in a parking garage for $30 a month. Anyway, she was running late one day and the only spot left in the lot at the abandon building was the handicap spot, complete with blue paint and yellow wheelchair. She parked in it. She got a ticket! They can still enforce that despite the store/building not being used. I laughed my ass off at her.

    2) It was snowing hard here the other day and the lot at the store was covered in snow. I was running in to buy beer. I parked in a spot I thought was unusually close to the store. When I came out, I could barely see the blue paint and yellow graphic on the pavement. I had parked in the handicap spot. And I felt absolutely awful.

    Sometimes I wash myself with a rag on a stick. And it's not because I'm fat. It's because I'm that lazy.
