It's because your cute, and those mean, ugly b*tches can't handle it!! My boss tells me all the time that I need to cut off my hair. (it's pretty long) When she found out it was naturally curly, she looked me dead in the eye and said "I hate you." How 'bout that??

I mean, what do you say back?? I remember telling her that I hope she had supportive people around her if she was ever widowed. That's all I remember. Ya, she's a real troll. She thinks I've got all this damn money, and I think she hates me for it.
She's still an AHole! or, an Atroll.
What an awful, and insensitive thing to say!

Angry How Stupid Can Anti-Gay People Get?

Imagine the complete and total loss of blood in my body at that moment. I wanted to die. I should've said something smartass, which is typically what I do. Instead, I just shook my head and we went on our way, but talk about an awkward moment for me and my brother. It totally ruined the entire day. I wanted to do nothing else but go home alone and lay in the bed.
I'm very sorry that you encountered this idiots. It also reminds me of what happened to a 38 year old, heterosexual black male named Willie Houston on July 29, 2001. Willie Houston was a bus driver and he drove a bus for elderly and handicapped people. The bus that he drove was probably where Willie Houston met a blind man named Victor Holt. Victor Holt's wife is named Valerie and Willie Houston's female fiancee at the time is Nedra Jones. All four of them were celebrating Willie Houston and Nedra Jones's engagement by going to a midnight cruise on the General Jackson River Showboat. Houston and Jones would have been married only two weeks later but the marriage never happened because they encountered a violent anti-gay criminal named Lewis Maynard Davidson III. Davidson had prior criminal convictions for drug , assault, and weapon offences.

After the midnight cruise on the boat was over, Willie Houston, Nedra Jones, and the Holt couple were in the parking lot. The two women had to go to the women's restroom that is near the parking lot and Nedra Jones didn't want to carry her purse into the restroom. Nedra Jones asked Willie Houston to hold her purse for her and he agreed to do this. After the two women went into the restroom, Victor Holt needed to to the men's restroom and he asked Willie Houston to assist him because the restroom was an unfamilar place for Victor Holt. Please remember that Victor Holt is a blind man. Willie Houston started guiding the blind man into the restroom and that is where the two men encountered the violent criminal Lewis Maynard Davidson III. Davidson falsely assumed that the two men were gay and became extremely angry at them. He wouldn't stop yelling anti-gay slurs at the two heterosexual men even when they explained to him that the purse belonged to Willie Houston's female fiancee Nedra Jones and that Victor Holt was blind. Davidson continued to yell at them when the two men were leaving the restroom and the argument continued in the parking lot. By this time, both of the women had left the women's restroom and they were also trying to get Davidson to calm down and be quiet. Davidson still refused to calm down, threatened them and then he went to his car to get something. He came back with a gun and shot Willie Houston in the chest and killed him.

Davidson was caught in Ohio more than two months after he murdered Willie Houston. He was convicted of first degree murder and he lost his appeal of his criminal conviction. He won't be eligible for parole until the 2062. I really wish that an inmate will kill this obnoxious bum even though I don't know any of the people that I have written about. In fact, I have never even met any of these people but genetic blinding eye diseases run on both sides of my family. At the time Willie Houston was murdered, my blind paternal grandfather was still alive and I wondered if an obnoxious violent bum would attack anyone in my family. Every single time that my dad took my grandfather out into a public place, my dad would have to guide him. My grandfather died of natural causes on March 10, 2003 and he lived to be 100 years, eleven months and twelve days old. Even to this day, I still get very angry whenever I think about Willie Houston being murdered.

Yeah, I'm smart too. I hate your boss. Seriously, who says that to an employee?

My current boss is just really odd. She has a good heart though which goes a long way. She's just very awkward socially. Plus I need to get her to the "What not to Wear" people. But that is a story for another day.

Tell your boss she needs to do something about that troll nose. Okay not really!

That is such a sad story. I wonder sometimes about the fact that something like that could've and still could happen to me. Hearing stories about people like Gwen Araju (sorry for murdering her last name) and others scares the crap out of me, but like Mama always told me "you can't be afraid of living cause you'll miss life"

I remembered one. I was walking up our 3 floor staircase and my roommate's friend was behind me and said in all seriousness, "The good thing is these stairs will shrink that ass." It was a moment!

A girl I used to work with once told me that when she was little, she didn't eat ravioli because she thought the meat was hiding on her.

Here's a few I've heard at work the past few years.... I'm in European Men's & Women's shoes....:

From my boss a couple of weeks after I'd told him my father had been in hospital due to the flu & kidney failure & upon his passing away earlier this year:
First: "I didn't know he was alive." Like, dude, when we're having our little chat about him being in hospital, didn't that give you a clue or were you just hearin' blah, blah, blah, Daisy??....
Second after asking for time off to help my brother figure out where to hold services for Dad: "Well, you can do that over the phone, can't you?"
I let him slide 'cause he has this unconsious urge to open mouth & insert foot sometimes....

From countless clients: Do you have shoes not made in China? {{{I'm part Chinese & yeah, I look it, lol}}} I've actually heard varying forms of this one all my life.

From a little two year old boy whispereing a secret to tell me to his Mommy just this week: Sometimes I sleep naked.
