I don’t know about you, but I am seriously tired of political phone calls. I’ve gotten to the point where I just hang up on them. Rude, I know, but I feel that they are rude to call day and night. I’m finding that the older I get, the less patience I have, which just proves that the older you get, the crankier you get.

Yes, I understand that these folks are trying to make a living, but it irritates me to no end when they call in the late evening. The Crankee Yankee keeps a “*minion” button near the phone, When one of those annoying calls come, he presses the button and all you hear is crazy laughter and screeching. Savage amusement…

I find that the older I get, the less patience I have with time wasters. And as we have a presidential election coming up, everyone’s phones are ringing day and night. What irritates me the most is when I am asked who I will vote for in the presidential election. My point of view on this: who I vote for is my business only. Sadly, I have seen too many people lose friends over politics.

I really started out in life as a nice person. I have tried to be kind and understanding, and I have often given people the benefit of the doubt. That said, there comes a time when it is ok to say that you don’t talk politics, and you do not need a reason to do so. If people want to yell and scream at each other about politics, go for it. Just leave me out of it.
