"Carpooling" Assholes

So here's what got my undies in a bunch today, or rather, got them so twisted and so far up my crack, they may never fucking come out.

I carpool with another family in the morning. May i just say a family of crazy christians? Okay then, I'm putting it out there into the universe.

I drive Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. They drive Tuesday and Thursday, except every other Thursday, when the kids go in late for "school improvement day," then they drive that Friday. You with me so far?

These idiots are late so often, that my kid is getting referrals constantly about how she needs to be on time for class and blah blah blah.

See, here's the thing- it doesn't matter if their kid is late, because she's not a student there, she only takes high school math there(as does my younger child), so they can't touch her if she's late. So, this is simply a case of "it doesn't matter to me, therefore, I won't care about you." Simple selfishness.

Might I also add...typical christians. First of all, the mom is forever trying to recruit me into her church, to which my heathen ass politely declines. There will come a day when I am not so polite. That day may be soon.

She calls and wants me to go to her Wednesday morning women's bible study group, which by it's very nature has me creeped out. I don't believe the bible has anything geared specifically toward women's rights except maybe...yeah...nevermind...they got nothing. Guess what I'm all about? You got it- women's rights. Birth control, abortion, voting, keeping my last name when i get married if i so choose, the whole bit. I am no one's property, nor will I allow myself to be treated as such. So the thought of sitting around with a bunch of other crazies while we talk about how we can be better wives makes me wanna stab someone in the eyeball with a crucifix.

She gets me into an hour long phone call as to why I am an atheist and her main argument is "well, you can't see Poland, but you know it's there, right?" To which I want to reply, "Yeah, but I can go there whenever I want to, and I don't have to be DEAD to do so." It's frustrating, to say the least.

My final point about how crazy these weirdos are is this- they lived in Croatia for five years because they were on a mission to stop ethnic cleansing in their own special way. How? By converting all the Muslims to Christians!!!! That's gotta be about as easy as asking Dina Lohan to stop acting like a coked-up old skeezer and start acting like a mom. Or asking the pope to please stop wearing white all the damn time. Or asking an eyes-glazed-over Katie Holmes-Cruise to lay off the Paxil/Zoloft/Lexapro cocktail so we can see some of the formerly sparkling personality of hers.

Done!
