I have three major people pet peeves. This might be why I am not dating you, not working with you anymore or run away screaming scared for my life upon spotting you… If we do hang out, then you have passed the below and can rest easy that this blog is not speaking to you.
1) Whiners
“Do I have to? I don’t want to. Don’t make me.” This may have worked when you were a toddler and your poor exhausted parents gave in to your childish bemoans but you now are an adult. Shut up and suck it up. Whiners are weenies. Life can be tough but your attitude is making it waaaaay harder. No one feels sorry for you. You are too busy feeling sorry for yourself to notice. Most whiners who complain they have too much on their plate don’t do much of it. In fact they usually pass their plate onto the people around them who not only have to do their work for them but suffer their incessant high-pitched noise. Whining is usually a smoke screen to cover up for either being completely incapable or because you being are a lazy bum (see below).
2) Lazy
Doing something half-assed is just not doing it at all. It’s a recipe to fail and internally give yourself an excuse to bitch and moan about how miserable is your life (see 1). Sure it is… you never “really” tried. Thanks for procrastinating to the last second to take care of that one tiny task, so it is done wrong and you send everyone who is counting on you into panic mode. We all need more stress in our lives. Yessiree bob we do. Oh and don’t you worry… everyone loves to pick up your slack and redo all your shoddy work. Hmm, it might be called “work” for a reason. Otherwise they would have called it ” go sit on the couch all day, you lazy tool.”
3) Rude and Tempers are tied
This is a toss up. Rude is just rude. And who doesn’t want to laugh at someone stomping around the room, turning red and frothing at the mouth? Pretty funny stuff.
a) Rude: People who are ill-mannered are the most insecure, pathetic… hmm… dinks. How can you poo-poo someone? You must be someone special because you act like you are better than everyone else. So does shitting down the throat of the teen behind the counter who is making your non-fat stupid complicated beverage really make you a big important person? Pretty sad bucko. Show respect. Manners go a long way. I hope that teen is your next boss.
b) Tempers: Slam bam wham. If you shout loud enough and long enough it may keep you from actually dealing with what needs to be done (see 2). Good thing I am not an idiot and I can see through your noisy fanfare. Love drama. You win the Oscar. Once you are done slamming the door, lock it behind you on the way out.
Recap
Top reasons why people whine, are lazy, rude and/or blow up:
-
- They are immature: mature people don’t waste time or energy avoiding.
- They may have a big ego, thinks they’re better than the rest, and that’s (usually) not true.
Warnings
- These people are very poisonous. Avoid them if possible.
Weapons You’ll Need
- selective hearing
- a water pistol like I use on my cat
- an island to sink them on
Life is too short. Avoid energy suckers. Stay cool my friends
