Killing Time (warning: language on my part)

[pzychobitch]

Dental work on a shark with hiccups.

I usually use the excuse I was mauled by a mountain lion. Considering I used to live in an area where they existed, that response is not far from the truth.

[pzychobitch]

Holy crap! You just made me snort in my super quiet office. You're response was EPIC! Brava!

Strangers really need to learn to keep their noses out of other people's business. Especially the way that she decided to ask you.

Glad I could help you out!

I agree, yes. The mood I was in, and still am whenever I think of it..... *instant rage*

[pzychobitch]

Obviously, your answer made you feel bad. I am assuming that you feel you should have had a higher level of self control. Personally, I think you are being unrealistic. If you were perfect, you would have smiled and said "Polite people don't ask questions like that."

However, nobody is perfect. We all have scares that were left be our imperfections. Unfortunately, your's show.

Stay strong. I hope you come up with some more witty responses, because, unfortunately, you are going to run into more clueless, rude people.

Yes, of course my answer made me felt bad. I should have not used that sort of language out in public (though I do among coworkers and family all the time, lol). I actually have great self control, but due to several customers in the past week mentioning my scars, *while I am on the clock and unable to say anything smartass*, just got to me.

Also, considering the town I live in.... I do not doubt that I will run into more clueless people. I used to work the overnight shift at my c-store. Also, I used to work for the red circles of hell in this same town. I have dealt with enough rude people for a long ass time. But I know more will come.

[pzychobitch]

Um...as someone who has the same history on one part...when people ask about my scars, I just say I had an epic duel with a pirate, old-style.

I once used the response that I got into a gang fight and they tried to cut my arm off lol.

Next time, just tell the nosey bastards that you own a scratchy cat, you'd not believe the amount of scars i have from mine!

very nice! That's one I haven't used yet!

[RealUnimportant]

That is a brilliant answer. However, I must take issue with you describing this lady as a "cunt".

Cunts are useful, they bring life & joy. She does not.

Your response was, IMO, appropriate considering the question asked--I try not to curse in public too, but sometimes--occasionally--I find it necessary.

And, living in the same town as you do I've unfortunately had to deal with many of these clueless people!! People everywhere can be dumb or rude, but for some reason I find the public in our town to be particularly brazen and nosy to complete strangers. There seems to be a stupid nosy ass fucktard colony somewhere within city limits, eh?

It will be interesting after my twins are born and I take them out with me shopping. I'm sure (according to others' experiences) I'll be asked a shit ton of annoying and inappropriate questions. ( i.e. Did you conceive them naturally ?)

HAHAHAHA true!

Somewhere within city limits? This town is a nosy fucktard colony. The whole thing. :P

Perhaps you are right, my friend.

Don't feel too bad. Jesus said to turn the other cheek. On the other hand, He also kicked the moneychangers out of the temple.

I have several customers who used to self harm and who walk around bare-armed. I never asked because 1. it's not my business and 2. I can completely understand the world of pain/rage/powerlessness/self-hatred they came from and don't want to pry.

Dumb bitch is dumb.

[RootedPhoenix]

AUGH some people are too stinkin' nosy for their own good. *offers many hugs*

I'm just lucky all my self-harm never shows on the outside for long.

Exactly. And that's why the world needs more people like you. I can tell you from personal experience it is extremely painful to even turn your head and catch an accidental glimpse. Sometimes you cant even shower/bathe without the memories coming back. I wouldn't even wish this on my worst enemy.
