You are an ignorant cow. Everything that comes out of your mouth is a veiled or outright insult.

I’ve had enough with the comments on how when I’m your age I’ll start gaining weight and have saggy tits and wrinkles and grey hair and my kids will hate me and end up as failures because I let them get away with too much.

I’m not you. You started saying this 25 years ago… I’m only 8 years younger than you and so far none of this has happened NONE! I’m not overweight, my tits look great, I barely have laugh lines let alone the bags and wrinkles that mark up your face. My last child is graduating high school this year and will be going to England to study environmental sciences, my eldest has her own business in holistic therapy and my middle child (remember you said she was the typical underachieving middle child?) is in Africa completing her thesis on women’s roles in tribal based cultures.

When I drove my car to work you said I was polluting the environment and when my kids moved out and I downsized to a condo I started walking or biking to work (occasionally the bus) so now you think I can’t afford a car.

Maybe if you didn’t sit behind a desk all day and got a job that gave you a bit of exercise you wouldn’t look like a slob. All you do at work is play solitaire and go on your little message boards so other negative jerks can agree with you.

Stop quoting your fake message board friends, too. No one cares that XXX_123 thinks you’re awesome. He isn’t real. He lies just like you do when you go on those boards.

And remember when my kids were little and you said they would hate me in their teens and twenties… they just paid for a family cruise for us for Christmas. I guess I must have done OK. —Positive outlooker

  1. Surround yourself with positive people, those that are negative will drag you down to their level.

  2. o.p., are you so fucking perfect, i doubt that you are. if you were, then we would all be bowing down and praying to you. not in this fucking lifetime.

  3. I’m the op…the woman is my mothers neighbour and I haven’t said anything to her because they are still kind of friends.

    It started in my 20’s when she would tell me “You might be skinny now but wait til you hit 30 and you’ll be fat and wrinkled”

    I’m only in my 40’s now and no…I’m not perfect, actually I have a huge scar that runs from my left eye across my cheek and to my throat from a car accident so I’m not exactly a “looker” but I keep fit and have become a makeup expert at covering the scar when I feel like I need to.

    When her kids got into trouble she would tell me that “Your kids might look like angels now but wait until you have to pick them up from jail…they won’t look like angels then.”

    Sure my kids fought with me (boy did they ever) but they turned out pretty good if I do say so myself and I never had to get them from jail.

    I am a single, divorced mother of 3 with a bad scar, sometimes it just pisses me off when people try to find other things to drag me down…if I wanted to be depressed, I’m sure I could do that on my own. I just choose not to.

  4. Good for you! I used to get crap like that when I got pregnant. The amount of negativity flowing from parents bowled me over. You would think they all hated their children!

    This woman has issues and it’s a shame that you’ve been subjected to this garbage for so long. Maybe it’s time that found a semi-polite way (for your mom’s sake) to shut her down and/or leave the room before she gets started. You really don’t need to put up with this.

  5. You haven’t grown old enough to let this shit slide off your back – after you hit 50, you have that wonderful freedom to say what the fuck you want without fear of reprisals. I remember being held hostage by people like that when I was younger – now I wouldn’t give them a smell of a stink.

  6. TTFN…I’m actually looking forward to fifty. I was thinking about doing a big birthday that year, maybe a trip to Vegas with the girls…not my daughters, my girlfriends. My daughters would NOT want to see what trouble their mother would get into in vegas! 🙂

  7. Positive people wander the earth waiting for unicorns and butterflies to befriend them. Wake the fuck up, the world is going down the shitter.
