Vanity Rant

That might be true, except for the fact that I don’t talk about my looks and I have a very small chest.

Watch out, guys… next thing you know, she’ll be talking about how much she likes oral sex :stuck_out_tongue:

Argh! I’m going to have to attend another Dopefest just to wear my “KayKay Taught Me How To Give Head” t-shirt.
Phooey.

Crap, I have to make that one for you. I’m a bad bad person.
But do you still think I’m pretty? What if I flaunt my cleavage or toss my red hair?

You know, sometimes poo can be green…

Well, I mean, except for the OP, where you told us how blistering hot you are, complete with height, weight and measurements.

:rolleyes:

I never said I was hot. I never alluded to being good-looking, cute, hot, beautiful, disgusting, ugly, or anything else like that. I wouldn’t have this problem if people had just been calling me ugly, because that’s questionable and the standards of beauty vary from person to person. I said that I didn’t think I was ugly, but certainly not beautiful either. The only reason I described my looks in the OP was so I could explain why I was mad. It wouldn’t make sense if I hadn’t.

All I hear is the sound of digging.
Really, though, Vixenation, what have you learned from this little episode?

Man! I need to come to The Pit more often.

LOL!

(I’m serious, childrens poo can be green, you know…)

Vixenation~

Maybe I’m the one being naive here, but I think I understand where you’re coming from on the issue of people teasing you about something that you consider blatantly false.

[slight anecdotal hijack ahead] Right about mid-teen years, I was a horrible flirt. With any and all folks of the male persuassion, married or single (or any range in between), young or old. You name it, I persued attention from them all. Mostly because I had severe self-esteem issues and because I liked the flattery I felt in return.

My family mostly, and a couple of friends, gave me hell about my behavior. I took it good-naturedly then because it was true. However, when I got a few years older (early twenties) and gained some maturity, I cut that crap out. And for a while, I still put up with being accused of flirting outrageously.

Once we hit the several years mark though, I wigged out. Now at this point, it was only good ol’ mom who continued, but it pissed me off to no end. Needless to say, I could understand her derision when I was only a few months out of being flirt-free, but after all that time, what was it going to friggin’ take?!!

Well, all that only added fuel to her fire. The more I protested, the more she cajoled, harped and just wouldn’t. let. it. die. I couldn’t understand WHY she’d want to harp on something so false and didn’t realize it was solely because she thought it (and thus my reaction) was funny. [/slight anecdotal hijack]

So, in conclusion, I agree with the other poster who posited that these “friends” are just trying to get your goat. The more you protest, the more hilarity for them that ensues. You don’t have to justify yourself to anyone, ever, about such trivial things. You know the truth and although it may continue to annoy you for a bit, use this lesson as one to help for those times when “letting the water roll off your back” is even more necessary. Being irritated is a choice that’s in most people’s best interest to avoid if at all possible. Serenity is gooood.

Good luck!

I think she’s learned that the Pit absolutely swarms with assholes.

swarming assholes!

thank you, hopefool! That was exactly where I was coming from, and you are one of the few who understood my post. I indeed was,at a point in my life, everything my friends claim I still am. But it’s been years, and I’m not anymore. I suppose that’s why they continue to say it. Thanks for your story, though, and I’m sorry to hear that your mother kept teasing you like that. :slight_smile:

Uh noooooooooooo, it swarms with turdburglers. Us assholes come in herds.

I don’t appreciate that homophobic term.

Ummmm Karma, did you figure out the “whoosh” things yet?

Yep, I got it.

Oh wait! You’re just being a condescending bitch! (WHOMP)

Hmmm. If swarms of tb’s* swarm, then herds of assholes _____.

I dunno, thunder? “Thundering herds of assholes.” Doesn’t quite sound right.

Abbreviation substituted to avoid offending KarmaComa’s delicate sensibilities.*

**Ah, screw it. If that turdburglar is so easily offended, he should stay the fuck out of the Pit.

You don’t think? Have you read Jarbaby’s Pit thread about farts?
