Oh oh OH! Here's a judgement that's been a while in coming. I fear this may become a novel.
I judge the professor for a class on marriage for whom I TA'd, along with several tohers. In the first meeting with all the TAs (who, with the exception of one guy, were young, pretty women), I was sitting next to him and, while staring off into space, my eyes caught the words "BIG BOOBS" written on his legal pad next to the name of one of the more voluptuous TAs. I wasn't snooping, but it was about one foot away from me and written in letters one inch high! I complained, confronted him, rose hell, and he issued a half-assed apology and walked on eggshells with me for the remainder of the course.
One of my students was unable to turn in her papers at the end of the quarter for personal reasons, so we had established that I would grade the paper as long as it was turned in in the first week of the next quarter, since I'd be getting ready for graduation and applying for jobs. She turns in the paper three months late, one day before the grading deadline, so I forwarded it to the professor, since it was understood that he would grade it after the deadline.
He sends me this novel about how it was irresponible of me to not grade the paper and how I'd been a horrible TA and how I'd been shirking my responsibilities from day one. It was unprofessional and a personal attack. Too bad I was the TA with the highest reviews, douche.
I wrote back a carefully constructed, gently scathing letter and copied my supervisors and the president of the institute on it. He quickly backpedaled and apologized. FFS, you're 55. Stop acting like you're an 18-year-old sexist ass.
Stackeye, thanks for the clarification. I hadn't read it that way, but it's interesting how the courts have interpreted the statute.
Poli, you kick ass.
I judge my brother who hasn't rsvp'd, who I know will NOT rsvp, and who will probaby show up at the wedding with an extra person or two. This is exactly what he did at the last family wedding - showed up unannounced, with two teenagers (his grandkids), and expected people to make room at their table for them all. He blithely explained "Oh, they always make a few extra plates of food, it's no big deal."
Dude, I need to know IF you're coming and WHO you are bringing with you. But I know he's just going to show, or not, based on whether he feels like it that day.

This is all about priorities. My mom drove a '78 chevy blazer until about 1993. It was loud and rusty. But my parents' priority was to live in a nice old farmhouse with a big yard for their kids. As long as the cars or the house aren't total deathtraps, I don't see the problem.

Yes, this. He looks ten years old. Move along, Kim!
I judge all the people who come in the break room while I'm eating lunch and clearly reading a book when they turn on the TV and crank it up way past necessary listening volumes. Then they leave 20 minutes later and leave the TV on. Um, hello? I didn't turn it on and I'm completely engrossed in a book, why would I want the TV left on? Turn it off, you inconsiderate people!
I judge an acquaintance who's FB status the other day read "celebrating the US wedding anniversary." She JOPed in Chile and then did a pretty princess wedding at home over a year later - which she called a wedding, not a vow renewal. And I'm not opposed to her having her party, but celebrating the anniversary? Dude, it wasn't your wedding.
i judge our next door neighbors who leave their dog outside for hours at a time, including every day starting at 7:30 or earlier. this dog barks at everything it sees and hears. so, A LOT. i get woken up by the fuucking thing every morning. it's so rude and i'm at the end of my rope. i actually got in a yelling match with it this morning (mature, i know).
I judge my wedding planner for taking weeks to get back to me (if you can't get to my question right now, at least acknowledge that you received the email!). And then she kinda didn't answer my questions.
Then I judge my mom for being totally pissy about it and I can hear her thoughts saying "why did we hire this woman?"
I also judge every person who thinks that finding a job is easy, and that taking unemployment means you're too lazy to work, or you're somehow on the dole, and that if you haven't found work after two or three months then your standards are too high or you aren't looking hard enough.
Yeah, I'm looking at you FIL.
If I wanted to hear the pitter-patter of little feet, I'd put shoes on the cat.
I judge my friend who's dog poops everywhere. She always goes at people's houses. Said friend brings dog everywhere. Rarely leaves her at home. The last time it happened she pooped near the food table at a party and someone stepped in it.
Friend picked it up with papertowel. But, didn't use cleaner or anything on the smear. There was A SHITSMEAR left on the floor. Host/b-day girl went over and had to do that. Gross.
Now I have to figure out a way to tell her her dog is not welcome in my new house. I'm mrs.no-balls though.

Mandy, I'd think a new house could easily be an excuse for a blanket (even if it's not really blanket - she doesn't have to know that) rule of no friends' dogs in the house.
Poli, he's just going to show or not depending on whether he feels like it or not. I know that about him, and he's not going to change no matter how many people tell him that's obnoxious.

I judge the people I see standing on the street corner with signs begging for money. I judge when I see them at the convenience store buying beer with the "proceeds." I double judge when I see a mother standing with a child begging for money or a person with animal begging for money with said sign.
I triple judge when I stop to give them information about day labor companies, and they bitch me out.

Ugh. I hope she doesn't do that. The "upset" cousin isn't even upset yet... the invites just went out yesterday. Nobody knows yet who got them and who didn't. I'm going to get one out to him as soon as she bothers to get back to me with the address.
I'm on my last nerve with this woman though. She dropped the ball on making the vests for groomsmen... she told me months ago she'd love to do it. Then just a week ago, I found out - through my mother - that she'd just decided she couldn't do it after all. Thanks for letting me know. Now I'm scrambling and will probably have to pay a seamstress to do it.

I judge the mother in the grocery store on Sunday who was letting her kids eat bananas while she shopped. Those things are sold by weight (granted they're cheap as all get out), so you just stole from the store, and taught your kids that it was okay, too. Great parenting.
