    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: I judge. : that's because we don't have to stop for you, so no i wouldn't trust anyone on a ny road to stop. here, pedestrians do not have the right of way unless you're in a crosswalk. if you're jaywalking and you get hit, it's on you. i judge mothers with young children. they seem to think that because they had a kid the world owes them something and they can act like total douches to everyone and aren't responsible for what their little twatmonger does.

    In the second part of that I was refering to the state I now live in, in which pedestrians DO have the right of way, even when jaywalking, although they can also be fined for jaywalking. Yeah, my state makes a lot of sense.

  • I judge people who whisper about my being engaged to a man 7 years younger then me. =P  I laugh as well because he was the one who talked me into it! :)

    I read an article about how being "math-dumb" is something most people laugh about or think is totally acceptable. If you say, "Oh, haha, I'm really bad at math, sorry," you think people will understand. But no one would ever say, "Oh, haha, I'm functionally illiterate, sorry." Interesting indeed.

    Yep.  some of the ideas are fine, but some are way out there for me.


    eta - you would be horrified at the post about how to EC on the plane.. Yep the plane.  This woman wanted her infant to pee into a container while sitting at their seat not even the bathroom.






    What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated.

    among other things. a lot of it is based on child-led, which is immensely disturbing to me, since children need to be given rules and boundaries. they shouldn't be the goddamn boss of the household. no wonder we have a generation growing up to be pussified entitled fuckheads.

    off the top of my head, it can include bed-sharing, baby-wearing (though i don't particularly hate this if it isn't CONSTANT), extended bf'ing, etc.

    [QUOTE]Maybe I'm just crazy for actually treating retail staff like human beings.  I make eye contact and say hello when I walk into a store.  I don't duck and dodge and try to avoid them, as I wouldn't do this to anyone else either.  In general, I just get bothered by people who are self-absorbed and oblivious to other people in the world.

    I duck and dodge the kiosk people in the mall who walk up to you and harrass you to buy a straightener.  In an actual store I politely decline if I do not need help. 

    However, Cell phones in restaurants annoy the crap out of me.  Having been a server, I am not going to stand there and wait while you finish your convo to take your order.  I have other tables you know! 

    Lauren-which university?  I went to OU and it is sad the number of people who treat Bob Stoops like he is Brad Pitt or something.  We actually were not allowed to tell customers what he was drinking and had to pour his beer into a mug and throw away the bottle before approaching his table.  Otherwise he could be considered "sponsoring" said beer.  *eye roll*

  • thanks lauren - i love it.

    re: ap, basically anything that sears guy says is repulsive to me.
  • Lpstl, I judge you for having an adorable baby and making me want to have one even more!

  • I suck at math and hated when people would try to mess with me on the register. I can write 50 page anthropology reports, head up archaeological sites, or trouble shoot your computer, just don't make me do basic math.

    I judge the person who slammed on her breaks the other day going down the mountain because apparently I was tailing her. I was a good 5 car lengths behind but we were both going 70 so when she slammed on her breaks randomly I had to swerve around her. As I passed her she honked at me and gave me the finger. Gee thanks lady, next time I'll try to go 6 car lengths behind you in rush hour traffic.

    I hated when my company gave us the freaking 10/10 rule for customer service. "You have 10 seconds to greet any customer within 10 feet". I have never been yelled at more in my life. When people are running in on their lunch break to pick up dog food they do not want 5 associates asking if they need help.

  • actually, i do know what i'm talking about, dinkus. it's not permissive parenting, it's "gentle discipline".

  • I judge parents of kids running wild around the store.
  • Daf, someone asked you to excplain what AP was, and half of what you said was completely wrong. Own it.

    And since you mentioned it, you don't know what gentle discipine is either. There are limits set with GD, there are typically none set with PP. You described AP (or was it gentile discipline?) as the kid being the boss of the household, which is 100% permissive parenting.

    You hate kids, so I don't think anyone expects you to care to learn anything about parenting, but you're talking out of your ass right now.

  • um, no. i actually read quite a bit about parenting so that i know what i have to contend with out there. i've been reading the ap board since its inception and there have been countless posts on there about each of the things i mentioned. just because you've been a parent for 10 seconds doesn't mean you're more informed than i am.

    ap is garbage. you're just being defensive because you're ONE OF THEM. barf.
  • I judge myself for get all mopey after reading this thread.  Dyscalculia sucks.

    I also judge my fiance for having not packed yet.  Dude, you are leaving for Uganda for 9 weeks on Thursday morning.  JUST PACK.  IT IS STRESSING ME OUT.
  • I judge whoever makes the sales people at furniture stores follow you around.  I'm not going to steal a dinning room set, I think you might notice that.  Also, it's not going to be an impulse purchase.  We looked at dinning room furniture for three years before we bought it.  My FH told a sales person not to follow us, that we would look around and find him if we needed him.  He told us the managers tell them to follow customers through out the store.  FH got mad and left the store, we didn't buy from there.

  • I judge all the people that shop at my store and are too stupid to see all the signs telling them NOT to put the carts on the friggin escalator! There is a bright green door for where the carts go (yes, we have a cart escalator) and yet at least once a month, we get some idiot throwing their cart down the escalator, and it always flips over and throws everything out, and crashes in to whoever else is on the escalator. And then they act like it's our fault and they have no idea what happened, or that it never happened at all.
