    Do us a favor and shave oyour legs first, not while you drive?

    ------------------

    Years ago I went to a store up the street from my house to get some brekkie stuff.

    Since it was early on Saturday morning there was only one check out line open.

    An elderly woman in front of me began to WAIL about the wait.

    She was loud..."Oh my GOD, Why Do I HAVE TO Wait!!!!" She went on about her time in a concentration camp and how unfair it was for her to wait to be waited on...

    I was pi$$ed and piped up......"Lady, we are all waiting...."

    The cashier called the manager who opened up another line and took this woman as the first customer.

    Here is a woman who probably spent time in hell during her life, survived it, then had to make a huge deal about waiting in line to buy groceries, years later?

    Instead of thinking about how lucky she was to have made it that far-while millions of people around her died, she pulled the victim card out of the deck and played it.

    How sad and pathetic it is to ride the coattails of the people who really did suffer during WWII...She survived and probably used that excuse how many times in the 40 years since????

    I look at the Prom Idiot the same way.

    Instead of being true to her 'cause', she has to shout about it and loses the respect that she may have earned had she kept her mouth shut and toed the line, like the rest of her classmates.

    She put herself at the head of the queue...like any good groundbreaker she should accept the slings and arrows of the people who choose to wait or conform to the rules.

    It reminds me of hanging out in the neighborhood, playing with the rest of the kids. Then, one of the little morons has to run to their mom, crying because of some stupid reason, which ruins if for everyone.

    Ah, the Human Condition!

    But I gotta agree with you.......there are always the queue jumpers that stuff it up for the rest of us.

    I never went to the prom but was asked once. A lot of the girls ended up with big bellies from going to the prom & it was not gas.

    That's the trouble with Proms. All that free food available, and the girls just eat and eat until they're ready to burst. Not good !!!!

    I believe one should be able to attend a dance with the date of one's choice, regardless of gender. I think one should be able to wear tasteful clothing to said, regardless whether it is a dress or slacks. I think the fact that this is even occurring in 2010 is pathetic.

    I wore a pair of holey Chuck Taylors to my prom. It was horrible and I left early. She should have just stayed home with her girlfriend, it probably would have been more fun.

    I agree with you completely, Twisterdog.

    I laughed this morning because of one educator at a secondary school.....

    A dad heard about a really cruel teacher that was posting lists of kids who had failed to keep up in their classes.

    The lists were there to remind them that theyt were excluded from any field trips, dances and other extracurricular activities because of their grades.

    The father heard about the list, went on campus and took a picture of the paper and began to complain that it was damaging to his daughter and her 'pride'.

    The father had NO PROBLEM crying about his daughter's ego-but said nothing about his lazy spawn being a fracking failure in her studies. Gotta tell you...


    I would have been PUMMELED and I would have been told that IF I DID NOT GET MY GRADES OUT OF THE "EPIC FAIL" zone?

    MY mom would have..

    Yelled at me.
    Yelled at me for making her HAVE TO GO TO THE SCHOOL FOR MY FAILURE.
    Yelled at me some more.

    (I know I am not supposed to use this letter, but it gets the point across...)

    She would have EFFED my world up to the point where I would have seriously thought about AutoEuthanasia-that or moving to the moon....

    LOL,
    I hope the world does end in 2012.

    Growing up, I always felt very privileged about the world that I grew up in and wondered about the kids that followed. I didn't want to leave the planet in a wasted way or messed up for them.


    Now?

    Frack them and Frack the idiotic parents who refuse to put boundaries on THEIR kid's behavior. The funniest part is the mothers and fathers who want to be friends, as opposed to parents to their nasty, rude, crude and ill mannered offspring.

    NOT ALL KIDS AND PARENTS are that way. Let's just say that if you are curious about the shoe fitting? Put them on and start walking.

    ---------------------

    Both my parents are gone.

    But, I still fear the prospect of screwing up royally and them finding out about it.

    LOL,

    I fear dead people.

    I always agree with you, too.

    Why should anyone 'skirt the issue' (pun intended)? She shouldn't have to lie, heck, she shouldn't even have to discuss the issue with school officials.

    It should be a non-issue.
