Things that irk me
Totally pilfered idea from Lex's blog. Seemed like a good way to reflect.
As a parent:
- parents who sit on their bums in public places while their children run around annoying people and making noise.
- parents who discipline their children out loud, but do not stop the behavior or follow through with consequences. "stop running...you're running again...I said stop running...sitdownsitdownsitdown..."
- parents who dress their children in completely age inappropriate and offensive clothing (saw a kid once with a T-shirt that said "IF YOU CAN READ THIS THE BITCH FELL OFF")
As a wife:
- watching couples fighting in public
- seeing a husband ogle other women in front of their wives
- listening to other wives put their husbands down in public
-women who dress themselves better than their children and husband
- couples who walk out on each other in public
As a daughter:
- hearing children sass their parents
- seeing children ignore their parents
- listening to children disrespect their parents
As a sibling:
- when siblings curse at one another
- when siblings don't stand up for one another
- when siblings fight over money
As me:
- greed and gluttony (watching people eat themselves into a stupor)
- belching (especially women)
- people who talk loudly and draw attention to themselves
- loud fake laughs
- people who monopolize conversations
- women who wear cheap perfume and drench themselves in it
- people who talk about all the people they know (you know si' Joe? He's auntie Mary's Godson from former senator so-and-so. You don't know Joe? He said he knows you)
- people who always have some kind of fundraising ticket to sell you every time they see you
- people who ask questions just to piss you off (eh, so you got a new purse ha? plenty money no? I wish I had plenty money like you)
- passive-aggressive compliments. (You know the kind, when you're looking and feeling dumpy and you know it and someone says, "what's up sexy?")
- people who stare
- people who have to "amen" everyone in the room just for attention (Brown Noser: ñiora tun Ko. Tun Ko, after BN departs: Lao håyi dai enao?)
- grown men and women who desperately try to hang on to their youth and end up making public fools of themselves (hey dude, I saw your dad freak dancing at Club V last weekend!)
Oh Gosh I could go on, but I won't. As Lex says, rant ends here.

Good rant. Made me laugh. We all need to vent now and then.
Damn girl, RANT AWAY! My favorite is the one about people asking you quetions to piss you off...I get that all the time.
Note to self: don't burp around Boni.
Haha..people who stare! Made me laugh because it is so typical. you know why they stare, because nei they're on stare-roids
