The Airing of Grievances Vol. 1

April 9, 2014 by Mariah 22 Comments

I’m finally joining all the cool kids and writing a post for Kathy’s Humpday Confessions. Let the airing of grievances commence!

festivus

  • I hate when people walk side by side on the sidewalk and then don’t move when someone is walking the other way. It is simple courtesy to drop behind the person you are walking beside to make room. Listen up, you don’t own the sidewalk and I will run into you!
  • I don’t get Tumblr at all, also why is “Sexy” a main page that pops up when you google it?

Tumblr ScreenShot (PS I’m so proud of myself for figuring out how to take a selected area screen shot!)

  • When Kathy uses the word “boner” I blush,  just from reading it. Sorry Kathy! It’s a word I just don’t care for…like the double t word for boobs.
  • It make me sad that people think going to a chain restaurant is “having a nice meal out”. I actually use to weed out potential dates with “What’s your favorite restaurant in town?”
  • It drives me nuts for people to refuse to try new foods. Have you ever had it? No? Then how do know you don’t like it! Dietary restrictions/choices obviously don’t count 🙂
  • I don’t really have favorites of anything, except people…P’s my favorite (hence why I married him). I love variety. Most of the time I answer, as not to be difficult, but I don’t have a favorite food, ice cream, book, or movie. I usually just pick one that I have liked. A favorite implies that it is the best and I have not tested all the ice creams, foods, books, or movies 🙂 and some things just can’t be compared, they stand on their own. I don’t have favorites, I have variety 🙂 life is too short for favorites.

So add some variety to your day and see what other Humpday Confessions are waiting for you!

    I agree with most of these, although I do have favourites, but I think these just depend on mood. I can be quite changeable with things, I don’t ever have just one favourite, unless we count my husband though!

    When my AMEX was stolen, the rep asked “so I take it you’re not at the Olive Garden right now?” and I responded “Ewwww hell no!” I heavily judge people based on their restaurant preferences 🙂

    i read some of her confessions just now.. they are all too funny! 🙂 thanks for introducing me to that blog. i don’t get tumblr either.

    i’m really bad at the favorites too.. but i’m better at it if i can break it down into genres or categories. i def have a current fave place for each specific dish… does that count?

    asking what their fave restaurant in town is such a good idea.. but nowadays decent couple friends are so hard to come by (esp since we keep moving), it’s hard to make that a deal breaker. *sigh Although… I do have a very hard time staying pleasant though when I have to eat somewhere I don’t want to.

    Love these!!
    I’m with you with all of these, the food one too, with one exception: I can’t do cheese. Sorry, not gonna happen. Cheese is revolting to me and I can’t try it!

    Love these!!
    I’m with you when it comes to food, except for cheese – can’t do cheese. I don’t want to try different ones to maybe find one I like, cheese is just revolting to me!

    I agree, who has one favorite of anything? That is totally weird! I hope I never become that boring 🙂

    I agree with all of theeeeese! WTF is tumblr, seriously, it hurts my head. And I HATE people who refuse to try things. Like, when was the last time you had it? Oh, you hated it when you were 8? Try it again, you 30 year old baby! And we have discussed my disdain for chain restaurants, just no, except Chick-fil-a which is always an appropriate fast food choice. And I can’t use the B word or the T word or any word for lady parts because I look like a tomato. And my husband and I were just talking about our shared lack of go-to meals at restaurants because there’s so much out there to try. So thanks for writing a confessions post I can get on board with!

    SO agree about the sidewalk hoarders! This always happens to me when I’m on a run which is even MORE rude when I have to slow down and ruin my pace JUST to accommodate for their rudeness. How rude. Haha. Happy hump day!!

    I love when Kathy uses the word boner, it cracks me up. I do actually hate the double T word though…barf. I find the path hoggers to be the most annoying when I am running, I have no problems running into people. GET OUT OF MY WAY!

    I get so angry at those sidewalk people too! I also will tell Fredrik to move if I do not think he is going to which I am sure bugs him but like you said the sidewalk is public property!!!
