More grampa rant
10 years ago
He leaves his piss sitting in the toilet to "save money". He leaves his filth sitting in the bathtub (that I have to clean) because lukewarm water mixed with dead skin heats the house to "save money".
He leaves his tv on for 5 hours when he goes out to the middle of nowhere. He spends who knows how much on gas to drive to maine, or nevada, or some shit. Then turns around immediately because he didn't like the weather. Doesn't even make the trip worth it. He leaves the lights on in the bathroom now, because there are new light bulbs. And treats me and grandma like idiots for turning the lights off when we leave.
He doesn't want to save money, he wants to act like a disgusting pig. He refuses to do things that are second nature to any civilized human over the age of 5.
His leg hurts too much to take a paper plate to the trash. But carrying a full bowl of soup in a giant ceramic mug? Won't spill a drop. His leg hurts too much to get his own coke, or to pick up after himself. But his leg felt fucking fine walking to the car to drive to fucking colorado. It felt fine when he was getting something to eat. It felt fine when he up and decided he needed to turn a trailer (car kind, not house kind) into some kind of fucking shed.
Funny how his leg only hurts when it's something he doesn't want to do. Like, I don't know, ACT LIKE A RESPONSIBLE ADULT?!
He screams at the top of his lungs to summon his wife, makes her run to his room because he might be dying, just to make her watch a stupid commercial or get him a drink, because he's too lazy to get it himself. He makes messes for no reason other than getting satisfaction at the thought of having his personal servant wait on him hand and foot and clean it up for him.
But she's okay with it, because it's always been that way. He's brainwashed her so much that she thinks it's okay for him to treat her like a slave.
He disappears onto random logging roads to eat lunch, phone off. He's broken a rib trying to use a chainsaw in the middle of the woods with nobody around. He drives (see previous rant journal).
He is so fucking stubborn, that he would rather kill himself, and possibly other people, including his wife and grandchildren, than admit he is unfit to drive. My mother and aunts are brainwashed, too. They just ignore it, say "That's just how old people act, you're overreacting. There's nothing wrong with what he's doing." There's nothing I can do but hope that when he DOES kill himself by acting like a fucking toddler (Because that is a foregone conclusion for someone that takes a 90degree turn towards a guardrail because he was scratching his neck, doesn't notice because he stares at his hood while driving, not the road, and them makes fun of people who tell him to stay in his own lane), that he's not so selfish that he will take someone else with him when he does it.

Ouch. Yeah, that sounds terrible. And it's sad that he acts in that manner and gets away with it because 'he's old'. And the fact that there's nothing you can do about someone being a controlling slob of a person. I've always hated assholes like that. Always have, and probably always will.

Because of how cars are designed to collapse around the driver to minimize injury, you'll notice the statistics show that idiotic and/or drunk drivers usually hurt other people in collisions a lot more than themselves. Not very encouraging, I know. Sucks that you have to deal with this guy, he sounds like quite the pain.
