A couple weeks ago the Mahogany Empress sent me an email, and asked if I am ever in a bad mood, and wanted to know what makes me mad, or drives me nuts! Well, like a typical Scorpio, I can forgive but never forget, and I do tend to have, believe it or not a stinging temper, but it takes a lot. I can let things roll for so long, but when I do blow, it's biblical proportions! I am for the most part though very laid back and happy 90% of the time, but there are a few things that will grind my gears.........
1- People who don't pick up after their dogs duty on lawns and parks! Don't make me rub your damn nose in it!
2-Drag queens that wear their wigs to far back on their heads, and don't create a natural hairline. I'll snatch that crap off your head quick
3- Loud and screaming kids in dinning establishments. First off if they can't behave keep the squawking brats home. I can't deal with toy throwing, crying, and tantrums. One reason I enjoy New Hope and Doylestown so much..... It's not uncommon to see signs like the above.
4- Drivers who don't know how to use a turn signal, and those who tailgate!!! If your in a hurry and have to be up my ass , then lets at least get a room!
5- Men and Women heading to work in a business suit with of all things..... sneakers!!!!! For Christ sake will it kill these people to dress in business attire for 7 hours. I think it looks sloppy, lazy and ridiculous.
6-THIS IS A HUGE ONE! why in hell does one think it cute to wear any kind of athletic wear like Nike, Under Armour, or Lulu Lemon, to go shopping in, sight seeing and drinks!!! It's called active wear for a reason. And I love that these people think of it as fashion!?!? FASHION! These things are meant to go to the gym in, running walking. And the ones doing it are unkempt... and who needs to see a huge wedgie or unsightly camel toe? Would it kill the community these days to actually bring back fashion and dress up, or at least be a little chic? So before leaving clean up, lose the active wear, and comb your hair, it's a affront to every delicacy to my nature. And DON'T think of North Face coats as dressing up, or fashion!!!!!!! I can't stand those either.
7- Reality Shows in general. the people on them seem to be nothing but losers, train wreaks, and drama queens. And all the damn noise and bickering. Hell, I could go to a gay bar to hear that! And do we really need another season of Big Brother, Survivor and America's Next Top Model!?! And aren't the hosts of these shows along with Hedi Klume like, at least 94 years of age yet?
8-Crocs!!!!!! Thanks God these are dying off. But if I see one wearing them, they'd be lucky if I don't pull them off their feet and shove them up their ass!
9-NO BATHROOM ETIQUETTE!
10- People who come in the store with food! I'm talking hot dogs, ice cream cones, I have seen it all! Does it hurt to actually sit your flabby ass down and eat before coming in a store? And then most of the bastards leave the paper products behind! I hate to see their homes!!!! Sit and enjoy your food! Everybody is in a hurry all the time, I swear.
11-Cell phone use!!!! now I take my cell every where. But always have my ringer turned low and when in places, never pick up. I always go outside. I just love the people in the store having whole conversations while looking and shopping and have even witnessed it while their being rung up. NO MANNERS, or interaction with the sales specialist. I could give a flying fig, that you have to go pick up your brat , and then get hubby for a neighborhood soiree, and what you'll be wearing!!!!! And don't you love the texters walking and bumping into you!!!!!!! Like Crocs, they'll be lucky if the cell doesn't go up their ass. Cell phone etiquette is way out of control.
Well, I'm done for now, how about any of you? What grind those gears?
I can agree on many of these!!! I use to I'll admit wear sneakers with a suit to get to work, but went back to my 6" heels! One more thing to cart around!
ReplyDelete6" Did I hear ? Good girl!
DeleteLOL! Great post! The cell phone thing is a HUGE one with me. I was dinning last week at a pub, and every queen at the table was texting, not talking. What the hell is the point in going out? Hell, they were probably texting each other!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry I was texting what dif say?
DeleteYes your definitely a scorpio! For me when meeting guys, if they ask "top or bottom" in the first date, there done! What happened to exploring and the fun of finding that out the "hard way"?
ReplyDeleteI have found it out the hard way!
DeleteThis is a huge one also with my gay peeps. If their looking for a quickie its different. But if they are wanting to date or starting a search for a partner, they too say it's a huge turn off!
DeleteNorth Face and active wear is all the East Coast knows how to wear....it awful. And your right. I don't care to see a enlarged camel toe in my face while shopping.
ReplyDeleteI never left my good shoes at work, but I get it, NYC & all...
ReplyDeleteChildren, Brick???
Little no-necked monsters....
I heard they were always on the floor. Your shoes
Delete"If your in a hurry and have to be up my ass , then lets at least get a room!" Funny! But I agree. If your driving crazy and tailing, and weaving in and out of traffic, most likely because they are running late, leave your house on time!!!!
ReplyDeletemen who wear Ambercrombie and Fitch and are over 30! Really? Really?
ReplyDeleteAnd it's usually 10 lb of flour in a 5lb bag.
DeleteTwo things for me...
ReplyDeleteWalking into a store and nearly having to stand on my head to get the sales assistants attention because she is having a deep and meaningful conversation with the other sales assistant....or on her cell phone!!!!!
People who telephone you, realize it's a wrong number and just hang up in your ear instead of saying, sorry wrong number.bitch.
Having worked in retail, It always grinded my gears to see people eating in the store. Still does. It's like put the food down fat ass and eat before or after. And their the first to bitch because nothing fits then. DUH!
ReplyDeleteWhen people walk past everyone on escalators they think they are smart but there just making it a hassle for everyone else, i also don't like desk chairs that have no height adjustment thing haha! Love yours
ReplyDeleteWhat grinds me? When my one night stand wants to stay all night. What do I do then when the next guy is showing up in two hours?
ReplyDeleteMattress hopping slut!
DeleteBoy, that's the pot calling the kettle black!
DeleteI'm surprised you don't have them join in!
DeleteSelf-righteous people grind my gears. You know, the ones who are out there telling people that they will go to hell for something little that doesn't even matter in the grand scheme of things. And cell phones, don't get me started...
ReplyDeleteAmen sister!!!!!
DeleteWhen people at work who say "Another day in paradise." Hate that!
ReplyDeleteAnother day, another dollar huh?
DeleteThings that grind my gears:
ReplyDeleteKids.
They should be seen and not heard!
When you use your credit card online and spend 60$ on a seemingly safe website....
ReplyDelete...and then your dick doesn't grow "8 inches in just 4 weeks!"
That grind my gears damn it.
Oh really? Your 's didn't work?
DeleteMy God how funny! Typical Scorpio you are, which means you must be a bitchy, conniving, scorpio and a sexual pig! Now what do you say to that!
ReplyDeleteIn the revenge business your called NEXT!!!
DeleteOMG! Where do I begin?
ReplyDelete#4 -- In SoCal we sometimes use hand signals. Like the middle finger.
#5 -- Inexcusable when you can easily switch to fashionable flats. That's why I own... how many pairs am I up to now?
#6 -- You don't want to see me when I visit the market first thing in the morning. LOL!
#8 -- I can't believe you can now buy Crocs flats! The horror!
#11 -- I nearly assaulted a guy on an airplane at Dallas-Ft Worth. We were on the tarmac and the pilot couldn't take off until this asshole three rows in front of me got off his phone. I yelled, "Get off the f*cking phone before I shove it up your ass!" Then I gave him my best "B*tch, don't f*ck with me!" stare and he backed down.
Hey, I had a bachelor party to get to!
Croc flats? I hope the asshole you created these chokes on his own rubber croc! You sound so like me.........
Deletebigotry, zenophobia, jingoism, homophobia, racism, arrogance, crass consumerism, intolerance, greed, war, poverty, injustice, inequality, hunger, obnoxious/pretentious people.
ReplyDeleteall of those piss me off!
And now my list gets longer! You go sister!
DeleteYou go girl!
ReplyDeleteWhat I can't stand is being in a restaurant and the server constantly bugs you with things. Or they check back to often.
ReplyDeleteIn defense of tennies, while it is NOT fashionable, it doesn't make sense to walk to and from work or on your lunch hour in your heels.
ReplyDeleteWell miss Von Zalez,since reading your blog, I'll pass you. Knowing you, they are probably vintage footwear! Lolz
Deleteooo, you are a doll and I love the manly man eye candy!
DeleteYou'll get a kick out of this - I just re-posted matador on CafeMom, that oughta start a ruckus!
Honey! You nailed this sh*t on the f*cking door and just started your own religion. What a cute little zealot you make. I am just so proud to read your blog. I could not agree with you more on all the above, love. Inconsiderate people continue to breed and create more inconsiderate druids and it's classy folk like us thats gots to puts up wid it all. Well, when you get your non-profit status all set up, you sign me right up! I'd be in your cult any Sunday! - Uptonking from Wonderland Burlesque
ReplyDeleteNon-profit status! I'll look into that! I'll sign you up as co-founder, but there may be "extra" work for you to "do"! Your too kind handsome!!!!
DeleteWell another entertaining post! Plus we learn even more about our hostess. For me driving and cell phone etiquette are huge! and a HUGE thank you for calling at fashion!!!! I'm so appalled with all the great fashion why Americans, women more so never seem to dress up anymore! It like they only have one wardrobe and its jeans, sweatshirts and tees!?!? God helps us.
ReplyDeleteAnd to think I almost missed this post! Alot of what gets to me you mentioned, but another thing is when young fat girls think it cute to wear a two sizes to small tee shirt and their gut is hanging out! I always want to ask " girl, couldn't you afford the whole shirt?"
ReplyDeleteHow much space can we use?
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more with the children and the crocs points!!!!!!! But the children thing is easy to escape.....no chain restaurants for me.
