The inhumanity of it all, or, fuck those fuckers.

I've been posting that I've been all pissed off and bitter and what not lately, and seeing as Facebooktm doesn't seem to have a space for blogs or paragraphs, I thought I'd explain why I am all pissed off. Mostly, I didn't want it to be perceived that it might be personal, IE aimed at my wife or family, not at all. Kimberlee is my whole life, so to be mad at her would be gay.

So, I recently cracked one of my hi hat cymbals, which in itself is a huge deal ( more on that some other god damned time). Anyone who knows drums or cymbals knows a small crack doesn't stay small, it gets ginormous quickly...especially if you play drums like I do, all retarded and aggressively. SO, I was looking for new/ used hi hats, and Kim found some on Craigslist for a good price. (see above image, that's actual THE fucking cymbals).

After some bullshit, the seller actually brought the cymbals to my place of employment. I couldn't have been happier. They were in great shape. I took them in the basement and as it was slower, thought I'd polish them up quick. I got about half way through, and it got busy in the kitchen. I left the cymbals down there, and ended up leaving at 8 p.m.. As I was driving home, I thought to myself, "that's probably not a good idea", but I put faith in the fact that they would be safe.

Well, as you can probably surmise, they were gone the next morning. Words pretty much escape me anymore. It's like the stupidest, lamest thing in the world, not to mention the LAST thing I would have actually expected. Now, before anyone thinks "Well, you shouldn't have left them there in the first place", I know! I know, I know, I KNOW! It's just bizarre. I put too much stock in the people that I work with (which is idiotic, I have only been there 2 months).

So, that's the reason in a nutshell. $200 flushed down the fucking drain. The shitty thing is, whomever stole the cymbals (outside of being a total fucking flaky, asshole) really can't do too much with them. The few people that I suspect wouldn't have the moxy to take them to a music store to try and sell them. Maybe they know musicians who would benefit from a pair of hi hat cymbals? Who knows. Bottom line, it really sucks. They might as well have stole Christmas presents from my daughter, cause that is what it equates to to me.

I DID file a police report, and if anything comes up, I will gleefully go after whomever it is with every ounce of vengeance I can muster. This kind of thing makes your skin crawl. Thieves are so fucking bottom-dwelling, nasty, lowest common denominator scum. I had a car stereo and a shit load of CD's stole from me once, and that was equally as creepy (although, they did a really nice job of taking the deck out! No scratches or damage to my car...bravo, fuckers!)

So, here's a giant FUCK YOU to the piece(s) of shit that stole my fucking cymbals. I rarely do anything nice for myself, and my wife pretty much had to beg me to buy these. I just feel selfish when there are so many other things we need to spend money on.... Whatever, it's money in the fucking fireplace now, right?

Boo fucking Who- d2
