Stupid things people say. . ..

"Why would you do that to yourself?"

"But you'd be so much prettier without those!"

"You know those leaves scars right?"

"So you're a punk?"

"Did it hurt"?

I can tolerate most stupid people.. but when people notice my piercings, they ALWAYS say one of the above. The one that bugs me most is "Did it hurt?".. no, it didn't. I just stuck a needle through myself and thought "oh! What a pleasant feeling!"

I agree , and because I have mine under my eye they always say how did they do that..uhh they stuck the needle through just as is, like are you stupid obviously they have to clamp it. I hate the first two you said like gee thanks alot. My grandma always says them too me. Same with tattoos it drives me insane!

Clerks at Safeway are apparently automatically programmed to ask if you want help out with your groceries. I often go there to pick up a quick sandwich of cup of soup for lunch and they ALWAYS ask if I want help out with my order Just to get them back, I sometimes say yes and see if they react ... they often just stare at me like "Wha?"

Heehee that reminds me, at Panera Bread, if you get a bagel, they always ask, "Would you like that sliced?" I always say no, but for some reason that is an unacceptable answer, because they always forget. It usually takes a few more repititions of "Did you say that you wanted that sliced?" for them to get it

Comedian Steven Wright has a whole whack of sayings:

"Why are they called apartments when they're all stuck together?"

"I used to work in a fire hydrant factory - but you couldn't park anywhere near the place."

PM me if you want a whole list....sorry I have no creative ones myself.

OH - was doing a transcription my boss left on a tape - he was in a hurry, and out came this gem: "I hope you understand that my professional reputation and my heart are in this thing with both feet."

I didn't edit it - I printed it out and HIGHLIGHTED it!

LOL! I do that too when my boss dictates something that makes me LOL. I call those "dicto's" Sometimes when I'm feeling particularly mischievous, I won't highlight it just to see if he'll catch it.
