I couldn’t come up with a topic for U, so I googled “words
that start with U” and wouldn’t you know it, I found two. I’m pretty sure there’s no one out there who
hasn’t wanted to reach out and slap the stupid out of someone’s face just for
being nasty.
I’m personally avoiding several people, some of whom are
related to me, because their unpleasantness is just too much to be borne. When
I was living with my aunts, one of them threw a laundry basket full of towels
at me because I’d washed the towels, and I’d folded the towels, but, crucially,
I hadn’t
put the towels away. Later, when the aunts and I went to buy paint for my
new house, and the paint boy at Lowe’s (who was kinda hot) was telling us that
we should probably buy multiple paint pans, so as not to mix up the paints, she
glared at him and said, in the snottiest voice you ever heard, “I know not to mix up the paints, I’m not stupid.” At some point later than that,
I’m told (I wasn’t there), she threw a screaming temper tantrum in the middle
of Mall-Wart because she went to put her purse back over her shoulder and got
it caught on the bottom of her jacket.
It’s moments like these that you wished you lived in the
Middle Ages, because you could probably get away with beating the crap out of
someone who deserved it. You probably wouldn’t even have to do it secretly.
Hell, in some areas you could straight up kill a dude if you were willing to pay off his family. Not
that I’m advocating killing anyone, but some people could use a good slap.
