Everyone tells me that I gripe about lots and lots of stuff. You know what I have to say to "everyone?" B*** me.

My gripes can come straight to you!

WTFIGOW...people who can't tell red from orange?

Have you ever stumbled across some chump who can't tell red from orange? I have. In fact, they seem to gravitate toward me, most likely because the universe knows people that can't tell red from orange annoy the s**t out of me. If you're color blind, The Gripe Guy gets it. But if you're not, maybe you should go back to pre-school for a refresher course on the color wheel. I mean, really, how hard is it to discriminate between apples and oranges (it's even called an orange!) and apply that logic in everyday life? Let's try...this jacket, for example, is orange:

Whereas, the trim on this box of GoLean is red:

It would be different if these people approached the mistake with malice, at least I would know they've got an ulterior motive or something. Usually though, it's some hayseed that thinks those orange highway construction signs are red. When I correct them, they actually tell me I don't know what I'm talking about!

What I wouldn't give for a sock full of nickles the next time I come across one of these people.
