Shut the FUCK up! or A Rant

[April]

I have almost had enough. Already. Tell me, people, HOW do you deal with a relative that you really don't want to piss off, but they just. Won't. Shut. The. Fuck. Up!!!

I'm talking a near constant running commentary. It's so distracting, I am unable to read anything. I really do not CARE if that house got sold, and to whom. I don't give a flying FUCK if the buyer was a god damn alien!! I don't want to know how long it's been since the road was resurfaced, or how many times in the last ten years it's been done. It goes on and on, ad NAUSEUM!

And everyone's an idiot, I swear. The contempt for others is palpable and appalling. Judgements left and right, active maliciousness towards others who are better off. At the same time, an air of superiority which is unfounded. The willful ignorance is depressing to behold.

This will be a very long two weeks.

I need a drink.

 

[pabloback]

do you think it is going to rain?
i am hot

[LukkyKnight]

To be safe I brought two, and a man in a skirt.

 

[I'mVan]

"don't drink too much" how many time have I said that?

*hugs* babe, family are OK to visit . . .

 

[Pagliacci]

If you already heard the story the relative is relating (They do have a tendency to yammer on about the same old grief time and again) then finish the story.

Relative: You know the house well

You: Yeah you told me you got it sold for X dollars,nice work on the deal.

It works marvels but can piss people off,though if they're somewhat well mannered they won't bitch at you out loud.

*whimper*

Make it stop.

I wanna go home.

 

[ma_guy]

Is my mother over visiting you?

 

[Sillyman]

Generally it helps when you have another relative you can secretly make fun of them with.

 

[I'mVan]

*whimper*

Make it stop.

I wanna go home.

I've got a place you can stay for a couple of weeks . . .

 

[LukkyKnight]

You can put up with all of your relatives for a short time. You can put up with your short-winded relatives some of the time. But people can be a real pisser when you have to spend much time with them.

 

[April]

Van, if I could, I would.

ma_guy, if you want her, take her. Please.

 

[I'mVan]

*muah* it's all I've got. Sorry

 

[LukkyKnight]

*muah* it's all I've got. Sorry

That and being hung like a mouse with unusually large ears, of course.

 

[April]

*smacks Lukky* Leave Van alone, you bully.

She's quiet now. Watching TV thankfully. I think I'll give her extra doses of her pain meds.

 

[LukkyKnight]

What'd I say? What'd I say?

 

[Sillyman]

Good idea. Take a few yourself. It will take the edge off.

 

[I'mVan]

What'd I say? What'd I say?

You cool bro, don't mind her. She's a bit wound up right now

 

[LukkyKnight]

I mentioned the unusually large ears, eh?

 

[April]

I could use a hug? And a drink.

Tomorrow, we go to my sister's house.
And my niece might show up with her kids.
I'm gonna hide.

 

[LukkyKnight]

((((((((((April)))))))))))

ANOTHER drink?
OK...

 

[April]

Bourbon, my dear. Surely you know this?

 

[I'mVan]

I'll send you the hugs hon. And if (and only if) you trek north, I'll buy you burbon and give you hugs.

 

[LukkyKnight]

A thousand pardons

A perfect manhattan, perhaps?

 

[April]

I'll send you the hugs hon. And if (and only if) you trek north, I'll buy you burbon and give you hugs.

I wish I could. But it is impossible.
You need to trek south.

It must be me, but the free speech dohickeys at the top of the screen are advertising hotels.

Hotels-Stay 3 nights,

Odd, eh?



LK, bourbon.

 

[April]

Now they've changed back.

I think I'd better do yet another ad aware scan.
