Things that chap your ass...

yep. recognize it...
channel it here and have a good laugh 🙂

it really irritates me when im somewhere public and in deep thought and some guy has to come up to me and treat me like i'm upset or angry... as though i'm some damsel in distress and he's the one who can save me. when really.. i'm simply in deep thought and especially dont want to be bothered in that moment.

yes, this is a sweet gesture, but seriously... when i've politely established that i'm fine and just thinking... it is not necessary to press on with the baseless assumptions...

...it is time to piss off!

when people get butt hurt when you dont respond to calls or texts in their own changeable and uncommunicated time frames...

Is it really deep thought though lol?

My little Cancer niece reminds me sooo much of myself when i was around that age. She's only four, but the way she'll drift of you cant help but ask "what are you thinking about?" which is what people would always ask me.

Anyway she's in the backseat just staring with her big pretty eyes, in exxtrreemelyy deep thought it appears. So i ask "what are you thinking?" Her reply "Im just thinking about chickens." then she went on to demonstrate how their wings flap lol. I couldnt stop laughing but again I was reminded of how similar we are. If people only knew the crazy things im really thinking when i appear in deep thought lol.

Don't kid yourself, it's not a sweet gesture. He has obviousely other motives, your well-being is probably the last thing on his mind. As if he would even glance at you and your so-called troubles if you were a dude. These type of guys are best dealt with on a "fuck off- basis! 🙂

I say this because they annoy me too, but I'm sure many women have found their soulmates this way, lol.

Inana, I laughed sooo loud at this I think I woke my roommate up. Well it happened just yesterday and as it happens I was in very deep thought at the grocery store! I have been pretty distracted lately.

Alright peeps... here's the scoop... lol...

homeboy at the register was Mr. Sunshine All Day Every Second apparently.. and my thoughtful mood just wasnt good enough for him. I was off in some other world at the check out thinking about the issues in my life. I wasnt upset. I was thinking about them with respect to how I should be handling them. Constructive thoughts. Mr Sunshine was an explosion of care bears and greetings. So I looked at him, smiled and responded to whatever he'd said and just went back to my thinking. This set him off right away! And he goes... "you seem like you're mad or upset... is everything ok?" Right in front of everyone! LMFAO It caught me off guard and I just looked at him... I'm sure THEN my brow was furrowed and I prob looked upset... but I was just like "no i'm fine. thanks though" *smiley face* *back to thinking*

This guy just went on with it though!!!! Finished checking me out. I'd already paid. Had my goods. And he proceeds to lean over the checkout and started talking to me as if he wanted to give me a therapy sesh! THEN I was really annoyed, so I said something like, "no, like I said... I'm fine. I'm just with my thoughts right now. Thanks a lot... have a nice day" At that point I was talking over him, and just walked away from him while he was still talking to me.

enfant... lol. oh of course i know he wouldnt have given me the time of day if i werent a chick. this particular guy though was too happy to be considered human and i know he was both offended by my mood and being opportunistic about it. he'd wanted me to be more engaging with him. i cannot stand it when people want to shove their bullshit mood in your face when you're minding your own business tending to your own mood. sure you are in public. yes i was at the grocery store... you have to do some interacting with people... but if this joke wants to be friends with everyone he encounters... he needs a diff job where his person to person contact doesnt average 2minute sessions. or just back off the caffeine a tad?

Needing to hold someone's hand (figuratively) to do what I see as basic, simple shit! Oh, well, even if it's not basic or you have know knowledge, do what I do, figure it out for yourself....

people who work above you that dont think or plan as strategically as you do and therefore their sloppy work undermines your own well planned work.

the mound of laundry piled directly to my right.

when you are trying to plan a night out with a friend and they say they are up for anything, but as soon as you throw out a couple ideas... they shoot them down. lol

"when you are trying to plan a night out with a friend and they say they are up for anything, but as soon as you throw out a couple ideas... they shoot them down. lol"

lol ... I actually know people who do this religiously, they love to shut things down.

Condescending people!!!

In these instances: Just because I'm female, does NOT mean I'm stupid! Like shopping for a car and the salesman shows my boyfriend about the belts/tires/etc and shows ME about the cupholders and trunk space! Really?!! I immediately started asking about statistics and what was the proof they could show me in those numbers (quoting things from Consumer Reports - I went prepared), and proceeded to ask about safety issues, braking systems, etc. My boyfriend was laughing at me.

Then, there was the time when I drove an old car and needed a new alternator and I went to get one at the auto parts place (I had found someone to put it on) and told the salesman I needed an alternator for my year/model car. He says, "what makes you think you need an alternator?". I said "because that's what I need". He said "let me come check it out". Then says, "you need an alternator". I'm like "DUH!!!!!"

(Okay, okay - if it weren't for the men in my life I wouldn't have known I needed an alternator, but that's beside the point).

Those are a few examples.

When my boss doubts me and I pull out guidelines to back me up. She doesn't think I'm as organized or well-prepared as I am.
I got my ass covered!!!!! I document everything (not in a mean spirited way, just in a CYA way). I've been burned before by superiors - trying to prevent that from happening again.

'people who talk authoriatative to me when they have none' lol yeah big pet peeve

the damsel thing.. I must look like a deer in the head lights because I get this often.

drama queens or kings

seeing the dxp confirmation of your profile update and it doesnt actually update.

automatic doors that dont open until your nose is practically smashed into it.

People who say talk at ya later.

Why do they have to talk at me, why not talk to me?

People who refuse to let you end the phone conversation because THEY gotta be the one to do it.

Folks that tune you out when its your turn to talk after youve listened to them nonstop for hours.

Folks that talk about the same things day and night.

LOL, we say that all the time in the South (just one of MANY local colloquialisms), usually as a good bye, spelled in text "talk atcha later"

click to expand

I'm in the South! Hear/read it all the time. Just irks me!

what gets me going

Extreme procrastination

People who don't take ownership of when the screw up (always blamming someone or something else)

rude cell phone users

Liars and Cheaters

-people at work that tattle. fucking hell... are we back in grade school?


-anything that makes me swear or makes me wish i had more than two middle fingers. lol

packaging that is nigh impossible to open

People who are smart, then choose to be ignorant

I've got a few Capricorn placements, so I thought I'd chime in.

POINTLESS CONVERSATIONS: Here's one I had today with my jobcentre/welfare advisor.

Advisor: *starts humming* Do you sing?

Me: No

Advisor: You can't sing? Don't you sing at church? Don't you join in when the church people are singing? (I volunteer there)

Me: Yes, but I'm not a professional singer. Of course I join in with the others.

Advisor: So you sing. But you're saying you??re not professional. Why are you not professional? Do you join in with the others? Are you part of the church?

Me: Yes, I do but...*frustration kicks in*....LOOK! You're asking me really random questions and I don't know why!

Advisor: Ok. Let's...ah...*goes back to sorting claim* (which is what he should be doing the entire time).

GENERAL

People who can't spell. Not using the correct form of they're, there, their and you??re, your etc. Those who get the words —quiet?? and —quite?? mixed up. They mean completely different things so know the difference and choose wisely because the sentence won't make sense!

I could go on LOL??_. it really winds me up.

Don't you just want to ask 'time & place much?'

Tell me about it....he's been doing this for months. He really had it coming today; I'd had enough of the foolishness. That's all it is, pointless foolishness.

Talk to me about jobs. Tell me about jobs. Suggest anything relating to jobs, because that's what we're dealing with here...but asking about my family and private life....digging in to things I show I don't want to reveal...it really irks me. He was embarrassed by my last comment which I feel slightly guilty for because overall, he's a nice guy and he's actually one of the more easy-going, caring advisors but he drove me to that point LOL.

Another one is public transport etiquette....a rarity over here. There are some nasty, filthy disgusting types who should be, in my opinion, banned from transport or put through some body detector to check for good hygiene before they board.
*rant over *

It sounds like you have a problem I also have lol When I'm really concentrating and deep in thought, my brow furrows, my jaw clenches a little... heck maybe a little smoke comes out of my ears I don't know... and people always think I'm pissed off. I'm not, I'm just concentrating on something, but apparently, I look that way to a lot of ppl.

But here's the problem - When I'm concentrating like that I"m doing it for a reason, and distracting me at that point DOES piss me off. lol So I have to be very careful to say "No I'm just concentrating, please leave me be", and usually they do. That's why when I do some design work I usually try to do it in solitude, out in my workshop, with the door closed, away from everybody else in the world. No distractions, nobody worrying that I might be angry when really all I'm doing is wrestling with a thorny problem in a logical manner.

+ 100000000 and when ppl don't take hints

gawd... traffic *shudders*

people who dont check blind spots. this has happened to me and i've seen it done to others on the road... being in the middle of three lanes when the cars at either side of you BOTH at the same time didnt check their blind spots and simultaneously change into your lane forcing you to flip out, slam on brakes, and watch as the two idiots almost collide, finally check where they're going and swerve back into their own lanes. *facepalm*

morons are lethal

Knowing you're shit."
