crash and burn

[patience is the hallmark of the old and the infirm]

Dude. So. Last night some idiot on the floor below made himself dinner at 12:30 am. The fire alarm went off and we all emptied into the street. I and L crossed the street, being intelligent as we are. Our idiot apartment-complex-mates just stood there right outside the building. It turned out to not really be burning, the guy was just an incompetent cook, but man. How stupid can you get? First, the guy is dumb enough to cook a full meal at 12:30 am, and also burn it. And then, everyone else just stands there right next to the building...

I mean, the fire truck came right up and everything. What? They just stand there right where they would be spraying?

I've been in the direct line of fire truck water before. It hurts and it's nasty. Those people are so stupid.

L and I sometimes feel guilty for never hanging out with the other people who live here.

But honestly? Honestly. This is a big city. We can find smart friends.
