1. I would like to be mildly stalked? Not by a criminal, but in a harmless way. Anyone who is anyone has been stalked. (WHO IS "ANONYMOUS ADMIRER"? Rekha, if that is you, I will post cheesy things on your Facebook wall. It had better be someone awesome!)
2. I want to jump into a vat of roasted plantains?!
3. I miss watching QVC? =/
Sidenote: I'm having dinner with a friend at Whole Foods last night, and we're looking for a place to sit. Despite the fact that it is Saturday night, the place is packed. We see a round table with a half-full (ah, I'm an optimist, after all) cup on it and decide to capitalize upon the open space. 5 minutes later, this woman comes by and is all in a huff.
"ExCUSE me, but THIS is my STUFF."
Lady, this is New York City. I'm not claiming to be a native or anything, but you really think you're going to claim an ENTIRE round table for just yourself by leaving a cup in your space!?
"There's room for plenty, you can still sit down," I say nicely.
She glares at me. "Well, that is just very... that is not nice."
At this my point, my feisty friend gets, well, feisty. "It is also not nice of you to be this upset. You left, we sat."
So she violently gathers her things and finds a seat at a different table... FULL OF PEOPLE, only to come back 3 minutes later to spit out the following wise words: "In the future, you should be nice."
Why do people require so much personal space?? Just sit the fu-- um, there might be kids reading this -- sit the funderpants down and make a friend in the largest city in the world.
"I put my cup down" myass butt!

"I put my cup down" my
I don't remember seeing "must be nice" in any law book...furthermore, what violation of the 'must be nice to all' law is she citing you for...paragraph 2, point f that reads "being nice also consists of foreseeing that a half empty cup means a table is saved and if an oversight is made, you must immediately jump up, apologizing 3 times and make restitution by offering to buy dessert"???
ReplyDeleteNonobservant (didn't notice the cup), lazy (noticed but didn't want to continue search), apathetic (noticed but didn't care), vengeful (knew it was her cup and purposely sat there because aint no heifer gonna talk to my man!)...but NOT NICE!?! I think this lady needs a dictionary...
i know, riiiiiiiiiiiiiiight?!?! and her hair was NOT cute.
ReplyDeleteHaha, funny. I agree... nice is rather vague! Maybe she needs a thesaurus.
