Snark: to annoy or irritate

"Snark" has been in English language dictionaries since at least 1906, and Lewis Carroll used the word to describe a mythological animal in his poem, The Hunting of the Snark (1874). Most recently, the word has come to characterize snappish, sarcastic, or mean-spirited comments or actions directed at those who annoy or irritate us.

At first, this blog was just going be a place to gripe, but because it's more satisfying to take action than it is to merely complain, now most of the posts/reposts suggest ways to get involved in solving problems.

CitiBank Arrests

The NYPD arrested the wrong people today. They wrestled and manacled the customers, not the CEOs. Here's one of the videos of the arrests:

"But, I'm a customer," says the woman in the business suit, holding up her checkbook to ward off police batons. Apparently, it takes 5 burly NYPD guys to herd one woman into a corner and arrest her.
