A cynic sees the whole picture

These are a few of my unfavourite things;
When my rates go up every year 10-15% and core essential services decrease.
When EBOP tiresomely once again says the current huge crop of unseasonal sea lettuce is a natural El Nino summer phenomenon and not a pollutant indicator and that nothing can be done to eliminate the problem.
When local and national politicians break pre-election promises. Luxuries before necessities.
Lazy journos. Remuera Tractors. Compulsory cycle helmets. Toll roads. The Hairini and Cameron Road, 13th Avenue Traffic lights. TCC Strategic Partners (mates) NIMBYs and public apathy.
These are just a few of my unfavourite things; and yes, I do have a life and am not too sad.
"A cynic" said George Bernard Shaw, "is really just a person who is able to see the whole picture."
