Taking 1.5 seats and not giving a single fuck

Continued: people who think public transit is their living room

Monday, November 18, 2013

Didn't these people's parents not teach them not to put their feet on things (maybe if it was your own living room!)?! My mom would've yelled at me for this shit!

Terrible people at Ikea who have no awareness of their surroundings (or just oblivious assholes)

Monday, November 11, 2013

Tons of people waiting around to return something and they sit like this.
Stood in front of them for a bit and no attempt to move.

This dumb bitch pushed and walked into me as if i wasn't there to sit on the ledge I was inches from

Friday, August 23, 2013

Not even a sorry or excuse me. I gave her cut eye as I looked at her in exasperation of her rudeness and she just stared at me blankly. These are people who don't understand social etiquette.

500 empty shower stalls and you shower right beside me

Tuesday, July 30, 2013

At the gym, I don't understand why some people feel the need to shower in the stall right beside me when literally EVERY SINGLE OTHER STALL is available.

It's particularly disconcerting when they PEE IN THE SHOWER and you smell the overwhelming stench of urine as you're showering or drying off.

What is with people???

Learn personal space!

Random capitalization in ads

You only capitalize if it is a proper noun. This is a huge stretch.

Taking off your shoes on public transit

And worse, when they start rubbing their feet and then touch other things like the poles.

Ugh stop putting your feet on the goddamn seats!

That's where my butt and pants go. 
Inconsiderate assholes must've never been taught proper manners or how to behave on public.

When there's literally a crevice of space and people insist on walking up against you

Like they couldn't walk a bit out of the way to not have to walk up against you.
And these are often also the people who see a space between you and the curb at the bus stop and think it's acceptable to stand in front of you in the tiny space between you and the curb.

Dead to me

Sunday, June 02, 2013

Sometimes, friendships reach a point where you need to shut it down. For me, it means they become dead to me.

Dead to Me level is not reached until after some time On Notice - just like Stephen Colbert's list.

On Notice

What happens when you're on notice?
Texts take longer to get responses, if any response. Make up excuses to not hang out. Rather stay home and clean than go hang out. When you do chat on the phone, you end up thinking in your head "OMG YOU ARE SO ANNOYING!" the entire time. When their face pops up on your Facebook feed, you groan and quickly scroll down. You'd rather hang out with someone that you're not that close with over the person that you were, at one point, close to.

Dead to Me

What happens when you're dead to me?
Phone calls are ignored. Text messages are ignored or even the number is blocked. Facebook profiles are hidden from the news feed altogether or deleted from the friends list. Just seeing their name mentioned or their likeness makes you want to scream and punch something. You try to not go anywhere they might be because you just don't want to see them. Just the idea of being around them makes you feel ill and enraged.

I've only in life made two people dead to me. I think that ended up definitely for the better.

Why are you dead to me or on notice?

- you're so self-absorbed that you don't even know how to act like you care about anything else but you
- you're flakey as fuck
- you have no sense of loyalty
- you put little to no effort into the friendship and when you need something, suddenly I hear from you
- I don't get anything out of the friendship anymore; joy, laughs, free stuff, whatever.
- you're cheap as hell for things that involve both of us, complaining about not having money but yet spending tons on designer clothes/purses
- you are way too attached to someone like your parents or your significant other to the extent that you pretty much have no other friends (that tells you something) and when we DO hang out, it's like you are inconveniencing them from time with that other party (or randomly invite them along)
- you are too much of a downer; I like me some ranting, especially if I can relate, but if you're complaining about how hard your soft-handed world is in a non-quota type workplace, I just can't 


People who say they go to "collage"

Tuesday, April 09, 2013

Maybe they should use that money they are wasting at "collage" and learn a trade instead.

This woman at Ikea doesn't understand how lines work

Monday, April 01, 2013

I turned around for one second and she puts her cart right in front of me. I'm like "where did you come from?" and she said that she was in another line but this was faster. I'm like that's not how lines work, you need to go to the back of the line. I was telling the bitch that line up etiquette isn't that can line up anywhere, realize it's slow and just put yourself at the front of the line in another.

But the idiot was just rolling her eyes. Bitches like this need to learn how society works.

Lack of self-awareness or just being an asshole

Monday, March 18, 2013

This dude was completely swiveled over into the aisle while the subway was literally packed to the brink, with everyone squished up against each other without anywhere to move.

And here he is. Just taking up both the seat spot and the spot beside him so no one can stand there.

Not spacing out in a fitness class

Wednesday, March 13, 2013

I can come in early to a class at the gym, get situated in a good spot and some idiot will come park themselves ridiculously close to me.

When the weatherman stands in the middle of the forecast

I'm at the gym and I don't have sound available. I just want to know the freaking weather, but then the a-hole stands in the middle of the 3 day forecast.
GTFO!

Smoking at the bus stop

Another common sense, manners/etiquette situation.

It's rude to smoke when everyone is lining up there and have nowhere else to go, unless they don't want to line up for the bus.

Fobs who assume everyone else can speak their language

There are some immigrants to the country who don't realize English is an official language and generally people speak that, more so than their mother tongue.

So they will just automatically start conversations in that language. I kinda get it if you're a senior citizen (though common sense would be the Caucasian person you're talking to probably doesn't understand you) but when you're a middle-aged or young person, you should realize that and have some basic understanding of English.

For example, I was shoveling snow and my Italian neighbor was also shoveling snow next door. This other neighbor had gotten his car stuck in the snow and abandoned it so when another car pulled up behind him, he couldn't get around that stuck car. The Chinese guy in the second car rolls down his window and yells out at my neighbour and I, and in Chinese asks where's the driver of the car in front? My Italian neighbour is like WTF and doesn't understand, obviously.

While some may say that being a tourist and assuming everyone understands English is kind of a dick move, at least English is one of the languages more commonly spoken in various countries. It's a dick move, however, to assume that everyone is of the same dialect otherwise.

Gross old man's mouth junk

I was sitting in my seat and an old man beside me kept palming his face and rubbing it, while also putting his fingers in his mouth to pick at it.
It was gross. But I just moved further to the other side of the seat because the bus was full and I didn't want to stand for an hour.
But that wasn't even the grossest part.
He then went hardcore picking inside his mouth. Then nudged out a pink thing, put it between his fingers and flicked it to the ground. Beside me! It landed two inches from my feet. I shared a horrified look with another guy on the bus but he smirked because I was the one sitting beside this atrocity. I look again at him and he's not at all fazed, which is also when I noticed all this dandruff on his shoulder ready to fall onto me so I moved the eff out of there. He also looked ready to get off or confused and I didn't want him to touch me with those nasty fingers that have been in his mouth.
See below for the gross pink mouth junk that came out of his mouth and by my shoe.
Pink gross thing from inside an old man's mouth

Fobs who cut the line

Friday, March 01, 2013

For example, these two.

Second example of fobby couples who just run into the bus, disregarding everyone in the line.

Ruins it reputations for etiquette abiding Asians out there.

Snow plowing half-assedly

Friday, February 22, 2013

This is what I encountered on my way home.

Luckily after a week or so, they eventually plowed the rest of the walkway but for a good week, especially after all the freezing rain, it was like gambling with my life walking down that death trap of a path.

When comfortable footwear gets misinterpreted as "slippers"

I have a classic pair of TOMS and UGG Cardys.

At least once, when wearing both of these, I have gotten a comment that implies that I am wearing slippers.

No, bitch. They aren't slippers. And they aren't some no-name, off-brand slipper I'm wearing. Plus THEY AREN'T MOTHER EFFIN' SLIPPERS!!

People who do personal grooming on public transit

I'm talking about people who clip their finger nails (EWWWW!), paint their nails, pick one's face and nose...

And who pluck their eyebrows (this girl literally spent the entire trip plucking her brows).



This inconsiderate asshole with no self-awareness took up two seats during rush hour

The ENTIRE trip while people are crowding around him, standing, he just holds onto that seat beside him with his backpack doing a crossword puzzle.
Fucking asshole. I'm surprised no one manhandled their way into the seat but it's probably because he looks crazy.




Someone threw a booger on me, no lie, on the subway

Saturday, February 09, 2013

Last week, I was sitting on the subway and someone beside me started playing around with her nose.

Eww, I thought, but sad to say, I see this stuff happen every day.

Then I see her pull something out from her nose, it's a dried up booger, and she puts it on her finger. She rolls it around a bit and then....


UGHHH.

She BLOWS IT OFF HER FINGER.

It lands on her bag on my side, so when she moves or gets up, it will definitely fall on me.

And I'm just sitting there, staring at this dried up booger about to fall on me with this look on my face D:

I don't know if she sees it but my disgust is pretty evident.

I couldn't deal with this grossness anymore so I got up and moved spots.

GROSS!

Seriously, are you for real? Need to learn some manners

Thursday, January 10, 2013

And typical. It was an Asian with a Canada Goose jacket.
Get your dirty ass Keds off the seats!
