pet peeves. april blog-o-sphere think tank.

********



**** 

my pet peeves stem from slang-y stupid witticisms spoken by those 
who are assuming and presuming in their attitudes….



no, i will not "friday dance" with you, and if you do not see how unprofessional you look
wiggling your arse in front of me, i'll gladly hold up a mirror for you. 
in my heart i dance for joy when the workday ends and i can relax at home. 
while driving home in my jeep, i can sing quite loudly. 
but do not ask me to join you in dancing while at the workplace. 



excuse me. 
in which language are you speaking to me??



i ain't your "hon" nor am i your "honey"….
i have a name, and i would be more than happy 
to write it down on a piece of paper 
and hand it to you so that you can work on memorizing it. 



this one. 
this one drives me absolutely crazy. 
i hate this. 
i hate this. 
my name ain't "pokey" and "okey dokey" is one of the stupidest phrases ever spoken. 
"okey dokey pokey" surmounts stupid.

I love your props! My husband has a saying and here it is . . . "the stupid, it burns!" That's all I have for you. You did make me laugh out and make the people around me wonder.

I only have one pet peeve that I can think of, It makes me crazy when I ship a package far away and I never ever here if the person got it, if it was in one piece...
why is that so hard? It's not like a text or an email takes that long...
~laughing~
