The Kvetching Board for Nov. 4, 2016

kvetch:

v.1 (Yiddish) to complain

I made the mistake of RSVP-ing to the Obama rally for Hillary. Now I am deleting 30,000 of her emails.

I still can’t tell which is longer: the line to see Obama or the line to get Alpine around 10 a.m.

If you are stupid enough to wear a cowboy costume complete with a “Wanted” sign AND break into dorm rooms, attend Duke.

Apparently, you can play for an esteemed varsity basketball team, assault women, garner 1K wins for your coach (who will remain nameless) and get away with anything!

The election is almost over. The election is almost over. The election is almost ovveeeeerrrrrrrr. No more Trump (hopefully).

Dear DTH, your Obama pictures were good, but you should fire whoever wrote the extended caption in Thursday’s paper.

Dear bicyclists, I know saying “on the left” is polite when passing someone on the left. But since that phrase always causes me to jump left as you’re passing me, can you pick another one?

Can I complain about big swings in temperature from morning to afternoon, even when we keep having 75 degree days? Yes.
