Does it bother you?
Hooray. I can get this blasted tree out of my way.
They can get annoying. Plus my cat likes to climb the tree and drink the water.
I want to walk past my table, I have to catch the tree that I've just brushed past. It is frustrating.
And of course there are pieces of the tree everywhere on the floor. Bah.
And then you step on a light or something, because they weren't wrapped around the thing in the first place. Really, trees are the one thing I truly despise about Christmas. Other than the fact people make it in to a meaningless thing. Not that it means much to me in the first place, silly heathen I am.
I hate how people can't drive when they go shopping, and then they walk at the speed of a turtle while they are shopping. I am a fast walker, but seriously? Why do people walk like that?!
Or they stand in the middle of an aisle when browsing and you can't get past them and their bags! I encountered this one (rather large) lady who I couldn't pass in the store. "Excuse me," I said. She ignored me. "Pardon me, ma'am, but I would like to get past." She screwed up her face and reluctantly moved out of the way. The slow walkers were just as bad. I agree, it's frustrating. I work in a school and the children walk at a snail's pace, often looking behind them instead of where they're going. I've been carrying equipment and all too often they walk head-first in to a printer or something. I laugh inside. Anyways, I digress.
And they act like they're doing you a favor.
Am I a horrible person for giggling at the image of a child walking face first into a printer?
Nah. Given the amount of abuse I have to suffer from them because they weren't looking where they were going, it evens things out. Trust me.One of them walked in to my colleague about a month ago and was like, "what the f*** do you think you're doing?". This from a child who was walking backwards down a corridor. He then proceeded to threaten to kill my colleague. We thought it was hilarious - he kept appearing at our office door during the day and staring in. I couldn't stop myself laughing.
That is hilarious. Stupid brat. Oh and he's so cool because he's using the f-wordHow old are these kids, anyway?
11-16. Of course, the academy is about to start catering for the 3-19 range. The top end will only be two years younger than me!
Well then..expect even moreand flirty students.
would you two stop quoting each other jeez!
