Why is it that old ladies not only seem to think that lines never apply to them, but also that all public spaces have been put there expressly for their personal and exclusive use:
Pushy old woman
People around you exist
Please step aside now
What is a lifeku?
A lifeku is a haiku about daily life. For those who are unfamiliar with haiku, it is a form of Japanese poetry usually about nature, "profound," and formatted in 3 lines of 5 syllables, 7 syllables, and 5 syllables. Feel free to check out some famous haikus if you still don't get it.

Today's lifeku goes out to a special certain someone, a someone who is perhaps the most horrible person I know, which is of course why I think he's hilarious. He's also kind of a whore:
Angry, bitter man
Kick a puppy yet today?
You’re going to hell

You’re going to hell

Today's lifeku is yet another facet of the previously mentioned "Human Cube" and resulting air quality:
Morning commute guy
Do you bathe in Cool Water?
I need oxygen

Sometimes I wish there was an easy way in French to say, "I dare you to do that again." They say "cap" or "pas cap" which is for are you capable or not capable, which basically sucks the balls that I don't have. Alas, I am left to fester in bitterness over my daily interactions, hoping that I don't one day punch an old lady in the face:
Extra rude lady
I double dog dare you to
Push me one more time

Formation Civique
Today I had my formation civique, which is a mandatory full day of learning fun required by France for immigrants to get their papers. We spend 8 fun filled hours learning all about the magnificent principles of The Republic, what's legal and not legal, the ideas behind democracy and socialism, and the subsequent changes some immigrants will need to adjust to.
There were two question and answer periods, the first pertaining to the government and boring crap like that (FYI France has regions, departments, and communes, and I still don't understand the difference between them). The second Q&A pertained to citizen's rights and human rights, which apparently really need to be spelled out for certain people from certain Middle Eastern and African countries where it happens to be legal to beat and circumcise your wife. I won't name names.
This horrendously long day inspired many lifekus, so I've decided to put together a little something I like to call the Civique Formation Series:
Part I: Morning
Monotonous drawl
You might really be able
To bore me to death
Crafty Chinese Boy
Way to get away with
The stealthy headphones
Canadian girl
Why don't you know your own
Independence Day?
Unpleasant woman
Pull that crap with me again
And I'll pop you one
Part II: Afternoon
Man in the back, no
You can't hit your wife in France
Because she talked back
Other man in back
It's always illegal to
Hit your wife in France
Yet more men in back
Polygamy is also
Illegal in France
Formation Civique
Useless French information
My whole day wasted
Fin.

I love how when people have been drinking they suddenly assume that you have become deaf. And possibly 2 feet further away than you really are:
Boisterous loud man
I’m standing right next to you
You don’t have to yell
