7: Men who think a woman knows nothing


sales attendants who only make eye contact with and direct their spiel to the male in the couple (when the item they are purchasing is obviously gonna be chosen by the female anyway rolleyes ) actually even an obstetrician we were talking to did this!!!! mad I was the pregnant one, not my partner!

though! if the master wears his "liqour in the front, poker in the back" t-shirt I have noticed we never have this problem! thumbs up!


I had the exact opposite happen to me with a male salesperson at Circuit City. My employer sent me there to pick up a new system because one of our computers at the office went down, and as I was asking a salesperson some questions, this impatient old wench walked right up and interrupted me, acting like a bimbo, and dragged him off to help her instead and he didn't even have the common sense to tell her to wait her turn. I walked out of the store and some other salesperson that noticed what happened offered to help, and I told them no thanks.

Believe it or not, that same exact dipshit tried to cut in front of me at Best Buy a few weeks later as I was waiting to return something, She walked right in front of me and put her stuff down on the counter, and started pulling her receipt out like she was gonna go next, and thank god the employee stepped in and put a stop to it, she told her that she would be with her in a moment, and brought me over to another counter to complete my return.

ohhh that makes me think of another one

it peeves me off when the store is busy and a new checkout person opens a till
if you are lucky the person will announce that they will help the next in line

most of the time someone just waltzes up there and plunks their stuff down
hello??? there are 6 people in front of you!!

--being interrupted when speaking. It bothers me so much that I've actually stopped hanging out with people who do this all the time.

--double wide strollers on New York City sidewalks; badly behaved children and parents who encourage bad behavior by acting like it's cute. It's not, don't expect me to act like it is, and then get an attitude with me when I don't.

--people who know each other and sit across from each other on the subway and carry on a conversation. Sit next to each other so not everyone has to hear your damn conversation.

--people at the bus stop who ask you if the approaching bus goes to such & such a place. Why are you waiting on the bus if you don't know where the hell it goes?


--people who ask you stupid questions that they could easily figure out themselves by using the slightest bit of common sense.

whofarted I thought everyone yawned with their mouths open. Sometimes in class I try not to yawn, so I grit my teeth together as tightly as possible, but I end up looking like a maniac with a rubber face fighting not to yawn. I end up yawning anyway, because it's uncontrollable. I hate when it happens in class too....seems like an indication that the class is boring. Hell half of the time it is, but I don't want my profs. to know it. lol

Noise. I am an auditory person and I can't shut it out. Other people's noise is like a physical violation to me.

For example: My office window was right next to Cal Berkeley's tennis courts. The constant "uuugh!!" of one girl's strokes literally made me switch offices!

people who sing out of key (it physically hurts me)

people who drive slow in the fast lane or don't use a turn lane (what part about the word "fast" and "lane" don't you understand at rush hour?)

cell phone use in public (every conversation I've ever been forced to listen to is by the most boring motherfucker on the planet)

the check out girl who is obviously so bored that she has to make a comment on every single item she runs by the scanner ("Oh, it looks like you have dogs, I do to" barf don't expect me to volunteer information, please just let me leave without getting to know you)

every jackass that thinks Prince wasn't cool after Purple Rain finger (what rock do you live under and more importantly, is that a Member's Only jacket?)

I always interact if the person is >65. Sometimes older people live by themselves and are lonely.
