Selfish, Entitled, Passive Aggressive Douche Canoes
I’m at my daughter’s gymnastics facility. Her practice is 4 hours long, so I bring my laptop to get some work done.
The area that has a couple tables is adjacent to one of the smaller gyms where they have dance classes sometimes.
The teenagers that take the dance classes, as well as sometimes their moms, pile all their bags, boots, fast food garbage, etc. all over the 3 or 4 small tables. They aren’t even using the chairs or tables, but they completely dominate them with all their junk and then go in and take their class.
So today I get there and every table is covered with junk. I pick one that only has a pair of dirty boots (standing, soles down, on the table), two soft drink bottles, a crumpled Arby’s bag, and the dirty peeled off top to a yogurt container, and put the stuff on the (carpeted) floor next to the table. (tons of their junk is all over the floors already too).
The class ends, and everyone comes piling out. Some moms show up as well.
One of the girls and her mom actually start complaining loudly about their stuff being moved. I think they were trying to get me to say something. I didn’t say a word. Then the mom actually taps me on the shoulder and faux innocently asks “Do you know who moved our things?”
Me: “Yes, I did. This was the most empty table.”
The mom: “Oh, I didn’t think anyone would need these tables for anything super important.”
Me: “My daughter’s gymnastics practice is 4 hours long so I try to get some work done.”
She kinda harumphs angrily, walks like 2 steps away, and loudly says to her daughter “I don’t know why he needs to move our stuff to play a game on his computer.”
I almost let it go, but I just couldn’t.
Me: “Ma’am, you MIGHT have a point if it weren’t for the fact that I make computer games for a living, and what you see on my computer is our latest game. Tables really aren’t the right place for people’s dirty boots and empty fast food garbage. There are 4 trash cans within 20 feet of us.”
She had turned around when I said ma’am, but after the above she just grumbled and left.
I get so sick and tired of these entitled, selfish, disrespectful (self censored).
So I take it you do not want her playing your latest game? I know how you feel. I had a similar moment today with a woman at my work. Sometimes people just feel the need to assert their importance over others. I hate that it makes me feel like a sexist, but I notice it directed towards me much more often with women than men.
F&*# that s@$*! of a rude I’m-living-vicariously-through-my-daughter h@3 for b@$&#!$@ and being a c@$*. Yeah, f@&$ you c@$ guzzling gutter w!~#$!! And Jordan, you are so sexist!(jk) I, obviously, just have anger issues.
At least you got into it with her. That sounds extremely satisfying. I’d have been fired up for HOURS. I also have anger issues. Maybe I hide it better than Angie
Yeah, I was fired up for quite some time.
What’s awesome is about an hour later, two women came out of the next class and thanked me for standing up to that lady.
Apparently she’s a serious bitch and she creates all kinds of arguments and drama with other people who dare try to use the room for its intended purpose.
