Am I normal, a dick or merely childish

[Expertise]

Do you ever do things for the simple fact that they annoy others?

For example. As I sit here at my desk there is a small wall of Coke cans half hidden behind my monitor. Its not there because I am a slob or as a profession of my love for that soft drink or because I am having a flashback to university and beer can pyramids. It is there because it is driving my receptionist nuts.

She is a lovely woman who cannot seem to do enough for me. She dotes on me, acts as adult supervision for me, as a surrogate mother to me, manages my time,both promotes and protects me and I treasure her.

But I can't resist doing things that will annoy her. Although she would never say anything to me I can see an actual physical reaction when she notices them. I kinda' revel in it. In fact (in my best innocent voice) I even ask her if they bother her. A question she ignores.

So am I normal, a dink or childish. Do you do things that you know will annoy those around you? If you do lets hear 'em.

 

[insideShiraz]

Lolololololololol...

You're a normal childish dick...lol

 

[Naked Hunny]

Well sweetie lets use deduction here..

1)I dont talk to dicks. I lick suck and fuck dicks I dont talk to them.

2)All normal males are childish.

3) You are a male.


Therefore you are normal sweetie

 

[Gaucho]

Okay. The answers to your questions are No and No. Uh, wait. That first one was multiple choice, wasn't it? Well, for someone who hangs around this board, pretty normal, I guess.

Seriously, Ex, what you didn't say in your post was whether you like to do things to annoy people other than this lady. Has it been a pattern in your life? Are you a serial annoyer? My guess would be not. Consequently, I'd say that your behavior towards this lady is in response to her behavior towards you. That is to say, despite the fact that you "treasure" her, some part of you must think she goes a little far in the Mother Hen bit and resent her for it.

Sound pretty close?

 

[Sparky Kronkite]

Nope -

Annoying only when humor, or attempted humor is involved. Never simply to annoy.

You are workin' hard for that "councilor" sheepskin aren't you.

Maybe your right though, its pretty rare for me.

Anybody else exhibit this kind of foolishness?

 

[April]

No.

 

[Gaucho]

You are workin' hard for that "councilor" sheepskin aren't you.

Maybe your right though, its pretty rare for me.

We counselors take our role very seriously, don't we, April?

 

[Bliss]

Hmmmmmm...

inside summed it up quite nicely, me thinks.

Or you can pretend you're at the shrink and she'll tell you do it for the attention. Maybe hoping Ms. Receptionist will come over to the desk to bitch about the Coke cans and catch you surfing Literotica or writing a naughty email and want to give you a spankies? Just a thought.

***************************
PS
I think your memo about only flirting with otherwise attached young ladies got lost on the way to someone!

*ducking for cover*

 

[April]

No. Not today. Leave me alone.

 

[Gaucho]

No. Not today. Leave me alone.

"...as you wish..."

 

[April]

I'm sorry, Gaucho. Being a real bitch today. Mood swings.

 

[Expertise]

Bliss the fact that you agree with shiraz, on anything is a little bit disturbing.

I wasn't so much looking to recieve validation for or explanation of my actions as I was for examples of other peoples activities in this area. However, I would assure you it is not because I want her to deliver "spankies"

Memo what memo? Your theory is flawed by the way. My lack of interaction with Naked Hunny would seem to disprove it, would it not?

Now quit hiding behind that bush bend over and prepare to be chastised.

 

[Naked Hunny]

April, sweetie, whats wrong? If you want to talk find me, hun.

 

[Bliss]

Oy Vey!

*throwing up hands in "defeat"*

Chastise me all you want Big Guy. You know I just had to needle you on that issue. *nudge* *nudge*

Now, does this door lock? The way that receptionist cuts her eyes at me, you'd think she's ...


heehee, you don't get *off* that easily.

Her protective instincts flaring up again.

What you make fun of I have actualy been complimented for. Of course if you start "talking dirty" all bets and claims in that area are off.

Be carefull not to rattle the cans

 

[April]

Mostly I don't do things to annoy other people. I say mostly, because I am a serial annoyer to my husband. My only excuse is that if I don't do it first, I will be the one being annoyed. Thus, you might say it is a defensive ploy. There may even be some resentment involved.

Now, with Expertise, I'm kind of wondering if maybe he teases his receptionist because he likes her. Kind of a playground thing, you know. You tease the ones you really like. Or it could be that he's a typical male. Childish, petty, and immature on occasion. LOL

 

[Expertise]

Except for the petty April. I am never petty. Who has the time, what with the "pig tail" pulling and taunting and snow ball throwing.

 

[CreamyLady]

Well, I waited until I was 47 to get a tattoo. The absolute best moment about it came when I showed it to my 71 year old mother; the look on her face was priceless. I was 17 again.

I seldom miss a chance to annoy her, and an annoyance of that magnitude is very rare.

Are you adding to the collection regularly, or varying the numbers . . . recycling one or two, then adding three?

 

[Bliss]

Kind of like pulling her pigtails? I can definitely see that.

By the way, it was Mr. insideofShiraz who used the word *dick*. Ex said dink. Damn this Nyquil, you said both, didn't ya? Shit.

So, yes, for tormenting poor Miss Moneypenny, you are a dink, LOL. And I would never make fun of you, Dear PM, it just wouldn't *do*.

Far be it for the head shit stirrer to talk dirty. You big giant Donkey stud, you. *LMAO*

[Cheri]

Exp, how funny you are

When I was working, I used to keep the big convention files in my desk so that the annoying man who was supposed to be my superior would have to tromp in my office and ask for them. Endessly pissed him off and that's why I did it, but I despised him so go figure. As for you, Expertise, I agree with everyone that you obviously have some sort of hidden animosity towards her.

Little Child ...

I think your memo about only flirting with otherwise attached young ladies got lost on the way to someone!

OMG ... i didn't get the memo ... damn your receptionist anyway, PM Byng ... ha ha ...

Bliss just likes screwing with me Isabella (figuratively not literaly). She gets kinda' whacked on the "Original Gren Death Flavor" NyQuil and decides she wants to toy with me ...oh well

As far as my deep seated animosity towards my receptionist... The woman brings me soup, cookies and runs to let my dogs out during the day if I can't. I like her plenty. I think April hit it on the head. I rarely hide my animosity towards anything or anybody.

Creamy Lady thank you for at least partialy satisfying my curiosity.

 

[Sparky Kronkite]

Man - your receptionist........

sounds great! I've got a combo of interns, young'uns just about interns (some are gorgeous, one just in here) and we even have - how PC can I be here - both sexes and all sorts of sexual preferences. Some are very good - other's terrible - as you might expect. But none sound as excellently service oriented as yours.

 

[April]

Exp, you have mai.
LOL No, I'm not putting the "l" in there! Annoyance factor, you see!
