I have a pet peeve.
Actually I have approximately 739 pet peeves, but I'm going to share just one with you.
I cannot stand it when someone tells me that someone is "such a blond". Today a woman repeatedly told me about a child who she apparently perceives to be an idiot and how she was "just such a blond". (Maybe this irked me because she was yelling and I was all of 2 feet from her, or that I've heard her talk bad about other people/kids frequently before.)
Don't get me wrong, I can laugh at a dumb-blond joke or two, but I cannot stand when someone tells me that someone is an idiot/blond in a serious manner. Do they think that is funny?! Do they think it is helping any children to hear that from an adult?! Do they think that I just happen to dye my hair this color and therefore it is okay to tell me that natural blonds must be idiots?!
Because its not funny... it harms kid's self-esteem to hear it... I do not dye my hair... and I do take it offensively.
Anyways... seriously. How would she handle it if I was like, so and so is such an idiot... but then again they are _a loud negative person like you_.
Some people need a 10 second delay from their brain to their mouth.
