#Overheardatwork: Just too young

Wherein I am flattered that you think I am, "pretty sexy for an old guy", the fact that I am more than twice your age leads me to decline your generous offer to come to the 8th grade dance after party with you. I do understand that you can afford the half price appetizers on your allowance but 25 years in jail just for spending time with you on a "just like on pretty little liars" date is not worth the food, no matter what the discount. Oh and no, I am not going to compliment you on your dress no matter how many times you mention how it "pushes up my tiny boobs so I look like a woman closer to your age". Please stop following me, I'm just trying to do my job and clean the band hall.

Woman: I'm at such a higher level than you that I'm talking to the bugs in the grass! Me: oh yeah, and what are they saying? Woman: they told me I need a shower, so I told them to f**k off and mind their own business. Now you go and do the same and leave me alone. Me: as you wish. Woman: don't you tell me you love me, I seen that movie, you're too ugly for me. Me: My bad... #princessbride #homelesshavestandards

Woman: that doesnt mean you can ignore me, ignorant ass old man! Teen boy near by: Actually, that's exactly what it means, it means he is mostly deaf and can't hear what he's not focusing on. So shut up and leave him alone, damn, now who's ignorant? Sir, you may step in front of me so that no one else bothers you. Woman: the hell just happened, old man is rude and then he gets to cut Teen: old man is old, rude woman is rude, and we are done with this convo And he was, completely ignored all of her berating the entire rest of his time in the branch. #faithinhumanity

#Overheardatwork: $12 Coffee Snob

Guy 1: so are you much of a coffee drinker? Girl: no, not really, but everyone here goes for coffee so I might as well join. Guy 2: I got twenty bucks says by the end of your first month here you'll be a coffee snob. Girl: oh really? Why do you say that? Guy 2: With as many coffee shops as there are downtown, its hard not to become a coffee snob. Girl: I'm just fine with grabbing a 99¢ coffee from the gas station, just need it for the caffeine. Guy 1: I'm sorry, what? No, you're a lawyer now. No more dark ages of coffee for you. Guy 2: If when ordering your coffee, you don't say at least three words that you don't know the definition of, then you aren't getting good coffee. Girl: seriously? Guy 2: Last year I went in as a joke and just said a bunch of random coffee shop sounding words and a few random flavors, and ended up with the best coffee I had ever had. Saved the receipt so I could memorize it. Takes me almost an entire minute to say the full ...

It's not that hard, I said go left, then go left, don't look around" "she was just screaming at him rather than thinking rationally, that's what you get with women, no ability to stay calm" "women are fine wine, better with age and always appreciated, girls are like cheap liqueur, only fun when you have more than one at once." Upon finding misc pigeon parts outside: "what do you expect, give the homeless enough time and a lighter and they will eat anything."

#Overheardatwork: Ungrateful Child God

Late forties mom - "Sometimes I look at my son and think, really, that's what's I sacrificed so much for. That's what I worked so hard to make. Where did I go wrong?"

#Overheardatwork: Fruit Art

Some people need to learn the difference between art for the sake of art, art to push an idea, and artistic expression.

He deserves what's coming to him." "The woman baked some devil spawn kids, course, with as many men as she's been through it's no surprise if her oven is a bit broken." "Skinny jeans on men are gods way of killing off sperm so that those idiots won't reproduce and tarnish this planet more." "I have no problem with the blacks and Hispanics, long as they stay out of my part of Ada they can live whatever kind of life they want." "Her ass said yes but her lips said no, so I just stayed behind her." "Trust me, when you make enough money you'll never have to ski on a lake with public access again. Watching poor people ski behind cheap boats is sad and makes me need another drink on my boat." "How can ...

Me pounding on the stall door: sir, sir, I need you to get up. This is a bathroom, not a bedroom. Drunk preppy guy around my age who was snoring loudly on the floor: who is it, warning, I curse people. Me: you need to get up. Drunk: I asked who is it you stupid f**ker? Me: security, you need to leave. Drunk: well sh**, don't gotta be a dick bi**h! Me: sir, you cannot sleep in our bathroom, you need to leave. Drunk rapidly trying to force open locked door: sorry, can't, God has chosen for me to sleep and his giant c**t out ranks yours. Me: sir, unlock the door before you break it and let's go. Drunk: fine, all you pieces of sh** with a badge are the same, won't let a guy get a good nights sleep. Me escorting him through lobby: sir, the exit is over here, you can go home and sleep.

Everything in moderation

So many issues we have as humans would be solved if we lived by the mantra of, "everything in moderation." Do you like fatty foods? Enjoy, in moderation. Do you like to drink alcohol? Enjoy, in moderation. Do you like running in circles till you're so dizzy that you can't stand? Enjoy, in moderation. Do you enjoy playing video games to zone out of life? Enjoy, in moderation. Do you like shopping for useless stuff? Enjoy, in moderation. Get the idea? Seems everyone tries to find specific things to blame for all of life's problems, when really, its all because we as humans can't get enough of things we love.

Suspend belief for a sec

If you require someone to suspend their personal beliefs, in order to hear your side of things, but then refuse to do so yourself to hear their side, you're a jerk. I run into this sooo often in my life. People who say they want to debate something, but all they want is to convert you to their way of thinking and have no intent on actually paying attention to anything you have to say. I try very hard to make sure that I am not that person. Sure, I stand up for what I believe, and I defend what I believe, but I will give you a fair chance to explain that belief to me. #rant #artofdebateisdead

Why do we generalize

I get really annoyed at all these posts and memes the generalize life. No two people are exactly the same, which means not all men act the same, not all women act the same, not all whites act the same, not all blacks act the same, not all gays act the same, not all heteros act the same, not all young people act the same, not all old people act the same, and not all anything acts the same. We generalize everything and then can't understand why no one understands who we are. We label everything so nothing can be the big scary unknown. Well guess what, I'm unique, just like everyone else. ;-)
