Grump

I'm turning into a grumpy old curmudgeon, aren't I?

Once upon a time I found this sort of thing amusing, too:

"Anyone could show up at one of 17 pickup stops throughout New Orleans, get a ride to the Union Passenger Terminal and then stand in line for a bus, plane or train to shelters scattered throughout the region." Planes departing from downtown New Orleans? That's a first.

Now I just find it annoying.

Not the "stand in line for a plane to shelters throughout the region" bit, though. The forced laughter that comes from willfully refusing to understand the concept of shuttle buses to the airport you moron.

Where has my sense of humor gone?
