On other "No You DIDN'T" fronts:
I have decided to ignore my, ahem, problem child. This person is not only a bonfide cock cuddler (see CC rant), but takes it upon herself to divulge and cry about her shitty relationship to me all the time. In return, I get to see all the Facebook update threads of her and her jackass boyfriend making up. It's enough to turn your stomach I tell you. There is one thing I've learned about women like this: they feed off of drama and their relationship requires a healthy dose of this drama to make their lives exciting, fucked up, turmultuous, or whatever. So how did I counter? At first I ignored. But that did not work b/c all she did was continue to harass me w/text msgs, emails, and the like. Then I figured it out. I accomplished what I set out to do by IGNORING any and every comment when she tried baiting me into her usual relationship bitch session. I think it will probably take a few more sessions of this to sink in b/f she really gets it, but in the meantime, OMG am I glad I don't have to listen to that BS anymore...
The MAN is at it again
So upon completing one of my current assignments, a write up for why certain PhDs/MDs around here deserve a $1K bonus (clearly this came from my boss, not me), our dearly beloved program analyst (another peon like myself) stops by. So he says to me, "HEY! What about us?" Now me being the modest person that I am, replies "You THINK that WE should get one too?" To which he says "Uh YEAH. WE did ALL the work behind it." So I proposed this to my boss. I proposed that this person and myself either a) be included on the award nomination or b) perhaps we should be nominated for a LITTLE something...giftcard anyone? And like the old phrase goes, askin ain't gettin. So once again the high ranking shits of society get the loot while the peons do all their stinkin work to make it happen.

...and then I said no.
I was sitting on the El this morning going to work while listening to my iPod, minding my own business and pondering whether to believe the Weather Channel in the future or not. During the Great Debate at 8:08 there was a woman sitting next to me with a million bags and we co-existed for about 5 or 6 stops at which point she exited and I zoned out once more.
Then all of a sudden something hit me, pretty sure it was a newspaper or something paper-esque. I look at my arm and then I look at what may have struck me when I see it was an old lady holding a magazine. I of course glare at her. She is old enough to know better that hitting someone with your magazine is quite rude. I look at her face and her strange haircut that hasn't changed since she decided this was "her look" with the too dark hair for her age, blunt bangs and poofy ends curled under just above the shoulder look and she asked if I was getting up.
Seriously? I'm looking out the window, my headphones are on and you hit me to ask me if I'm getting up? You want to sit down then plop your ass down and we can get on with ignoring one another. I quickly gave her a look and said no then went back to my world outside the El.
Yes what comes next is passive aggressive to most people, however, this is an issue others have and not me personally. My phone makes this beeping noise when I text message people and I've grown accustomed to it and rarely hear it. I received a number of texts this morning while sitting next to her and I knew she was looking every time I received one. HA HA! Kharma sucks lady! Don't hit people with your magazine if you're asking an obvious question. I'm going to randomly smack someone walking next to me and ask them, "Are you walking?"

Classy Broads
Here's a list of bad manners that gets under our skins when they
...talk on their cellphones while you're out to dinner with them chatting away like you don't exist.
...text constantly while you're out to dinner because apparently the message they're waiting for "I LOVE YOU" hasn't come yet. However, the one you're about to send "you're being rude you whore!" is coming dangerously close to being sent.
...walk over to where you are and drop a stink bomb then walk away. (Ok, so a dude did this to a friend of mine, but I know women who do it as well.)
...bitch about "drama" and yet they continuously immerse themselves in it. You know who you are, don't think you can hide from my judgement.
Email us at livekismet@gmail.com with your suggestions and we'll add them...well if they're good.

Why Some Men Should Come With Warnings
I had a subletter who could NOT aim for shit. I forgot I took this picture in a fit of rage. So you can SEE what I was dealing with.

Oh no THEY didn't!
Some thoughts on every single asshole lending and insurance institution out there:
"They called it insurance, but they were gambling," said Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz. "In a market economy, there has to be a sense of accountability. You can't come running to the government every time you have a problem."
I couldn't have said it better myself. I already blogged about this, but I was so mad I decided to blog about it again.

No One is Safe
I realize that while we have blogs, no one is safe. We may change the names and give vague instances of where the occurrence of bad behaviour took place, but we're putting it out there. Yeah, for the world to see how we deal with some seriously questionable people.
People will give you an one eyebrow raised look when you tell them you have a blog, they step back when you say you have two. It is the millenium's way of saying you have kids. These kids talk though and they speak volumes of what issues you have.
However, is it the people we talk about that makes this blog what it is or is it our limits in dealing with people like this. Not sure yet, this will be a great experiment. With that said I have learned a long time ago when people are upset they will talk shit. There are valid points, but it's usually in a harsher (in my case, much harsher) tone. I am not naive in thinking that people do not talk about me when I tick them off, but don't be that stupid ass and get pissed off when I do the same. For I am one of those people that you shouldn't worry about whether I'll be there or not unless I stop talking to you. When all communication ceases between us you are dead to me and I no longer have any capacity to give a shit what you do.
With that said, welcome to the latest and greatest blog about people we know and don't who do some really stupid shit to us. Who are hypocritical, dirty, at times trashy, racist, elitist, judgemental whores. Oh that was about them, not us. Eh...maybe we're a bit elitist and judgemental and whores only when we feel like it.
Either way you'll get a kick out of our lunacy and those that we encounter. I sure as hell do.

The discounter
Let me first say that I fully understand the need to just commiserate at times. But what SERIOUSLY pisses me off is when people do this: Do you ever have friends where you listen to all their bullshit relationship drama, but somehow if you try to discuss another point in your life that you are upset or concerned about you are automatically discounted?? Your concerns are DISMISSED. Dismissed in that either you are being a drama queen or your concerns are just not that important.
This actually happened to me yesterday when dining with a well known CC. Upon expressing my disappointment that ANOTHER CC had failed to step up the plate during a crisis and be a friend, THIS CC defended the actions...or uh, lackthereof. I was told that "other people have stuff going on TOO" and I was made to feel stupid and selfish. For those of you out there who don't know...the situation was a broken neck. And my disappointment was that, this person, whom I thought was my friend, couldn't even be bothered to write me an email or text me to see how things were.
I actually kind of feel stupid writing this...expressing disappointment about a CC TO a CC. WTH was I thinking?

How to tell if you SUCK...
(This is similar to the last blog, but after being dissed by a CC I felt we needed one w/an angrier tone.)
1) If you indulge your non-plan committal boyfriend by not committing to plans with your friends any longer. (You suck even worse if you show up to "appease" your friends with your boyfriend and make no attempts to socialize or speak to anyone b/c you cater to him.)
2) If the reason why you do this is because you just CANNOT find it possible to remove yourself from hibernating up his asshole.
3) If your friends stop inviting you to things because they are tired of your flakey cc ass, but yet you play the victim by refusing to accept responsibility in the situation and being a martyr.
4) If all of your interests now come second to your significant other's interest.
5) If one day you look around and realize that all your friends have abandoned you and you just cannot understand WHY this happened.
Any more that anyone else can think of?
