The thing about people who drive SUVs [Beefy]
Is that they're overweight yet smug, posting 'no smoking' signs and telling you to mind your q's and p's [Francine]
Their children are overweight and under-mannered, if fact, they seem quite rude [Beefy]
Often when watching good guys vs. bad guys and the good guys win, these kids have perversely booed [Francine]
And why, when you live in a big, paved-over city, [Beefy]
Your neighbors, who live in broom-closet-size apartments, keep dogs as big and mean as G. Gordon Liddy? [Francine]
It's not that I'm one to complain, bitch, whine or moan [Beefy]
But why do I end up in "voice jail" every time I press all those numbers they tell me on the phone? [Kansas Sam]
Like that time I tried to reach the IRS [Francine]
A mess!
 
[Will H]
 
Perhaps it's a sign of increasing age [Beefy]
That when talking to some tech support person with an accent you become frustrated and begin to rage [Francine]
The more machines are meant to help, the more they let you down [Beefy]
No wonder, then, that each heartfelt digital "Your call is very important to us" makes me jeer and frown [Kansas Sam]
I should unplug everything and call it quits [Francine]
Because devices that are meant to make our lives easier but do the exact opposite get right on my tits [Beefy]
Whenever I hear a buzz or a beep [Francine]
I want to throw the wretched device somewhere very dark and deep [Beefy]
Or should I say, shove it up.....? (You get the gist) [Francine]
To sum up, I'm pissed [Beefy]
