:lol: at lunch. So I step out of the office to get a gyros platter at Ayola, and walking back I come across a Korean BBQ roach coach outside my office -- that even has its own Web site.

This is so f^%#$ing San Francisco... Instead of the ice cream man, we have a Korean BBQ woman: "the famous BBQ Princess of Yoon, from the Province of Yummii".

Just got back from getting my mom's car and my car state inspected at the shop. Took about four fucking hours. Every single year everybody has to get their car inspected by law in the stupid state of Pennsylvania. Fuck you PA. Fuck you.

I'm angry at a bunch of other things too, so I'm going to hit up a 20 minute run.

That's true in a lot of places. It was in Maryland when I lived there. In California, we only have biannual smog, and not safety, checks.

On one level, I agree with these things on principle: driving is a privilege, not a right, and if you're causing potential harm or danger to yourself or others, car inspections are founded on the same goals as airline inspections.

But the way they're executed is what bugs me. Too many opportunities for scam industries and rubber-stamping for the right fee.

    Getting ready for Econ with Tuncer.
    I have him for two classes this semester, he's the man. He's been to my house for dinner too, before my parents got divorced.

    He's a Galatasaray fan if you ever want to talk to him about that.
    He's from Turkey so he's difficult to understand on top of the subject matter and you get a snooze fest.
    I think he's easy to understand when he actually starts talking about the shit.
