Man, I am a huge hypocrite, and that is evident in this week’s Dustinland. Hey, sometimes I step into the bank, see a huge line of people waiting for one ATM while another one sits idly by itself, and sometimes I pass the line and try the ATM, even though I assume they are waiting because they know it’s broken. But I also know that people can be stupid sheep. So who knows, maybe for some reason someone screwed up at the ATM and mistakenly thought it was broken, so they waited in line for the other one. Then another person walked in, saw the line and just figured, okay, the other one is broken. Might as well wait too. So I sometimes walk in and give it a test. And sometimes I don’t. Sometimes I have faith.

But when I’m waiting on that line and someone else has the nerve to play the genius and skip me and everyone else, oh boy is that a different story. Who are you to think I’m a stupid follower? I am the one who thinks you’re the follower! How dare you!

It’s the same way with elevators. I’m the first one to pound on the door close button as soon as I get in, but I’ll fume in anger when someone refuses to hold the door for me. I guess I should get into that whole do unto other thing more.
