Some things, you just DON'T DO

I try not to leave the house too much to run errands that involve driving unless they're a) really important, or b) I can do a bunch of errands at once.  Street parking is never horrible horrible here, it probably only takes 5 or 8 minutes to find a spot during the day, but from the vantage point of being in the house, sometimes it's just not worth ( Read more... )

Oh Nancy! I'm sorry...

you should have rolled down your window and asked, "What, don't they have Trader Joe's in Danville?"

That would irk anybody not actually from Danville. Haha.

that happened to me today! i was standing in line for 45 minutes to get into the Taschen store because they are having a crazy sale at their store and i really really wanted a giant 80 lb. book with funny pictures.

and a fucking couple see their friend and are like "heey" as in "hey, let me cut in line in front of all these other people and be assholes even though i'm gonna play it cool and smooth and maybe all these other people won't notice what a jackass we are. slowly, slowly, let me pretend i'm looking into the store and then i just won't move anymore and i will be completely merged in the line.'

FUCKING ASSHOLE.

and i didn't say anything but i was sooo close to yelling, my heart rate increased to twice as fast speed. i wish this mouthy lady at work was with me. she doesn't give a fuuuck. and she's got great comebacks.

gotta kill the passive and just be aggressive. i wish i was in a car.

but good job you!

thanks all. i felt like a huge bitch when i was doing this, but seriously, come on. if they'd been trying to cut in front of me in the middle of the line, i probably would've let them in. but right into the front? give me a break.
