I've had a nice day today. I went job-hunting, window-shopping and also went to see Fright Night. Recently things have not been good. I've recently encountered a lot of bad customer service (which I have been bitching about lately 
) job-hunting has been HORRENDOUS (I applied for a job on Friday and the manager was really cold with me, and has now hired my dick-head younger brother!) and I've just been plain down. But today was good. I was relaxed, had a nice day out, and I did apply for a job (in full goth gear ^^;; ) but the manager seemed really friendly and not at all put off by the velvet flares XD (I always make a point of saying "I only dress like this on my days off, please don't be put off!").
Well sadly, some people still have to be twats...
I was queuing for the loo, and was alone waiting outside a cubicle. The door opened and its occupant vacated, and just as I was moving forward to enter, a woman in her mid-to-late 40s physically shoved me out of the way and snapped "Excuse me!" before locking herself in.
Now, I am aware that bladder control is something that can...weaken with age. But the woman didn't LOOK like she was desperate. Her tone was very much "get out of my way!" and snobby. Now, if she was really bustin', then if she'd pushed past saying "Excuse me, I really need to go!" well....well actually, sorry I still don't think thats an excuse for physically pushing a stranger out of the way. Its not like you can't assume other people who queuing ahead of you don't have health problems or a dire need themselves!
You know, I was gonna say it might have been acceptable if that had happened, but pushing is a massive peeve of mine. Its technically assault anyway (maybe I should have screamed that
), its touching someone in a very aggressive, even violent manner, and unless you were knocking them down to save them from a bullet or a speeding car, I don't see why its acceptable to push someone out of the way.
I was just discussing with a friend, and she said I should have chucked things over the door at her
I kinda wish I had had tampons in my bag, so i could yell "You obviously need these being as you're such a bitch!" Aww, but that would be mean and rude, right?
I have to admit, I lament the fact that I didn't think to take my half-empty bottle of water and chuck the content over the door and then leg it
Instead, all I did was snap "I think you'll find I was here first!" and then loudly comment to the lady washing her hands "Some people have NO MANNERS!" Not that the bitch had the good grace to even look ashamed afterwards, she just flounced off as though I were invisible.
Bonus Suck
Seriously, what compels people to spend money on prime-time movie tickets and have a fucking conversation as the movie is playing? Surely whatever is being said can wait until a more appropriate moment? And when you consider Fright Night is in 3D only, thats a ticket price of £11.25, just spent on having a dumbass chat.
I was sat next to a group of young couple, of the chavvy variety, and while they had seemed friendly enough, goths just don't like to get pissy with a group of chavs. It has a tendency to end up in tears. Fortunately, there were a lot of vacant seats, so I just moved. But this one airhead spent the first 15 minutes just chatting.
PS Fright Night is awesome. If any of you want to see a REAL vampire movie, then get yourself to the cinema and watch!
