lummox Posted June 3, 2004 Posted June 3, 2004 i am hanging in san diego for the summer. this place is cool except where it is wack. i dig the pretty women who hit on me. there is a whole gang of strange round here. serious. and aint it just my luck to have gotten kinda hung on a chick back home before i came down. i am disgusted by the wannabecool dickheads wearing tattoos and dickies and trucker hats but they dont fuk with me. they must sense i would get primeaval on their sorry ass. here is a little vignette of what is wrong with western society: i went to a vons store this morning. i selected a pound of safeway coffee that was on sale. why the fuk thhey sell safeway shit at vons i couldnt say. at the checkout counter i had to apply for a fukin vons card to get the sale price. they cashier (i refrain from using the term 'bitch') started to hand me the card then pulled it back at the last microsecond as i reached for it. i said 'psych' and she got all uppity and shit. why the fukin drama to buy goddam coffee? almost makes me want to go to starbuscks or sumpin. i wont even start on the gas prices. i reckon i will go on up to mt woodson today. the problems are kina highball though. and the only other climbers i seen fukin suck. i mean really: 5.10 crack aint that hard. but it is only about 5 miles away from this freaky suburbia i am hanging at. at least the sportfishing is picking up so i will be off the hard pretty quick.

Off_White Posted June 3, 2004 Posted June 3, 2004 Yeah, there's a reason I left that town and will never move back. It has nothing to do with the climbing though, there's lots of great rock in close proximity. FYI, Safeway bought Vons awhile back, hence the house brand overlaps. A Safeway card should work at Vons too, but I'm none too fond of that consumer data collection scam. Usually when confronted with that scenario, I say I've forgotten my card, and then when asked to enter my phone number, I use the local area code + 555-1212. Never fails, there is always someone who used that number to register. Quote
