Ticked off! @short shorts

-

I don’t know which ticks me off worse —- someone deliberate­ly spreading lies on social media or someone deliberate­ly running you off the road in a stupid attempt to gain one car length on traffic.

It’s great a local gym is giving free summer passes to teens, but parents, just because your daughter wears super short shorts at home they are not appropriat­e for a gym full of adults. I want to work out without seeing pre-teen body parts that should not be hanging out.

I am ticked off at so many automobile­s that are driving around with expired license tags. These are the people that cause or are involved in accidents and have no auto insurance.

I’m ticked off because Lynx continues its policy of demanding that seniors obtain photo IDs at the main station in order to get a senior discount. We already have photo IDs proving our age!

I am greatly ticked off that incontinen­ce pads are deemed by Medicare to be hygienic vs. medically necessary yet Medicaid patients have coverage for them. How unfair this is. We who pay for Medicare are denied whereas those who get free insurance coverage get this benefit? I wrote to Medicare and my legislator to no avail!

The flip side

I would like to thank the nice young man who repaired my leaky water pipe at my residence. You did a very good job and I am so happy to have water again.

Need to vent?
