I must have a sign on me somewhere... |
|
At my daughter's softball practices, one of the dads talks incessantly to anyone who will listen. He has marked me as "someone who gives a shit" apparently. He somehow found out I am from Minnesota and is constantly talking to me about all kinds of stuff regarding Minnesota, the LA Lakers (??? - yes I know they used to be from Minneapolis, but still, I am NOT a Laker fan), and anything else that comes to mind.
:banghead:
All I wanted to do was just sit and watch my daughter practice softball. But I get this guy chewing on my ear THE WHOLE FUCKING TIME.
Yah, I know, I should just be assertive and say that I just want to watch her play... But I am venting here...

1. I get into excessive conversations with cashiers a lot. |
|
I figured it must just be me, but maybe it's a Minnesota thing.

2. I've worn headsets even if the music isn't on |
|
that helps - I can tell someone I'm listening to an audiobook or something like that.

he got mugged a couple of times and kept getting bothered on the train- He cut off headphones so you could see the cord hanging there and he would hum quietly to himself while moving his head from side to side- Never bothered again-

3. The ones that drive me up the wall, are the people who walk up... |
|
On their cell phone when I am sitting by myself, and stand right next to me, and just keep right on talking like I am not there.
I don't want to hear your conversation, and I was there first, and enjoying my peace and quiet. But NOOOO, I have to listen to what so-n-so did, or some other thing.

And they give me dirty looks. I just look at them and say, "What? I was here first."
