Also, this woman sounds really angry :lol:

Yeah. If a woman ever complains about something, she must be angry.
her original complaint was valid, but like valmy notes she then goes on to list a bunch of random things.

Some Valmy notes are pretty sensible, though.

Back in serious mode, when I worked in a cubicle having my headphones on at my desk meant I needed to focus on what I was working on and should not be interrupted unless it was an emergency.  Amazed me how few people actually got the hint.

Same goes for other situations.  When I was walking around town at lunch and had headphones on, that meant I wasn't really in the mood for small talk.  Oddly enough, the only people who seemed to respect that were homeless beggars.

You need to have a bitchy resting face. I'm always amazed how many people want to talk to my sister or my sister and I when together. On my own, basically no one fucks with me.

Is your sister white? :P

No? Actually she's much darker than me right now. I realize I got a bit of a tan with all my time outdoors in Scotland. :blush:

Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

What are Valmy notes?

I thought it was being used a verb there.

I note, you note, he/she/it/Valmy notes
We note, you note, they note

Strangers don't ask me for directions or the time, let alone try to strike up a conversation or, heaven forbid, flirt with me;  I have a countenance that everybody thinks I'm scowling, mad and ready to fuck something up. :shrug:

Having a shaved head helps keep people away too. Except Mormons. Mormons love me. Guess I look like i'm going to hell.

Side note: What is wrong with you and quotes? You seem to be fucking them up a lot today.

Stupid iPhone.  My compulsive need to crop quotes comes in direct conflict with the Apple keypad.  :(
