THE CURMUDGEON

When did it happen? When did the man I married disappear and the curmudgeon take his place? He has become a cantankerous, argumentative old man. Who does he argue with you ask?

Last year the issue was that he could not hear the television. Now the problem is that he can hear the television. He indiscriminately comments non-stop...on everything. Here is just a sampling from the last few minutes of Wheel of Fortune:

• Where did they get this guy?
• He is the thinnest guy I have ever seen?
• Look he can barely spin the wheel.
• He doesn't know how to spin the wheel.
• What is wrong with the other two people.
• Stupid Stupid Stupid
• How could he not know what that is?
• Everyone knows that is bottle nosed dolphin.
• Why is he taking so long to choose the letters?
• Those are the same letters everyone chooses.
• He is screwed he will never guess that.
• How did he get that?
• This is the stupidest game.
• Why would they pick him?

That is just a sample of a very few minutes of Wheel. He talked non-stop. Non-stop! Never once did he say. He talked so much you could not hear the television...and it is not just this show...it is all of them. You should hear a baseball game--if it isn't the players or the coach or the announcers--it is the hotdogs!

I miss the days where all he said was--"what did he say?" or "they must be mumbling"

I say OMG SHUT IT!
