What is with people who think they are better than everyone else around them? Like teachers who don’t help you at all or make you feel so much less about yourself because you are not as smart as them or don’t understand something. Newsflash, you’re the teacher and I’m the student for a reason. I don’t care if you get your pay check at the end of the day, you’re here to help us, not make everything harder for us just because you can. For all of those older students who think all the first year students are infesting the school, guess what, you were in my position too, stop looking at me like I’m in your way I have shit to do too.
All those girls at the bars who think you look so slutty in your jeans and tank top as they walk by in their mini skirt and see-through top and a boy behind her following like a dog, and giving you that look like, you so do not belong here. Yes, I am of age, and yes, I do not need to look like that to feel good about myself, you would know that if you took the time to know me and not judge me.
Lastly, those people you just see around town, and you can just tell they are snobby and no one is up to their standards. Come on, don’t look at me that way because the ONLY other spot on the bus is beside you which you felt necessary to make occupied by your little hand purse. By the way you eye me up and down to not dare ask to sit there it’s like you know I only have a fake Chanel purse and you can smell the dirty little sweatshop kids hands fuming through the air towards you. This bus is damn packed, let me sit my sweaty gym-attending ass down, I’m tired, it looks like you just went for a tan and manicure I’m sure you worked out hard today with that purse that also needs a spot.
I feel like elementary school all over again being the last kid no one wants on their soccer team, and the team that gets you tries to make you feel bad for wanting to play. Really people, stop acting like you’re on top of the world, this would be a much nicer place if there was no judging someone for thinking they aren’t as equal as you are. —Lighten up

Not to worry Carrie. They’ll get what’s coming to them on prom night, Yessiree Bob.
What a fucking downer you are! No wonder I give you “the look”
I’m with Koda.
Yeah, me three.
If you look at everyone with a negative attitude, guess what:
Everyone is going to have a negative attitude of you.
That’s my two cents.
It someone is using Metro Transit and has a real Chanel purse, then they stole it. Rich people would never stoop to public transit.
“It someone is using Metro Transit and has a real Chanel purse, then they stole it.” I laughed at that. Heh.
Why do you care, OP? You obviously are lacking in confidence if you’re concerned about this. Confident people tend not to give two shits about that crap.
Life becomes much easier when you stop giving a fuck about other (random) people’s opinion(s) about you.

And sometimes you just have to do what makes you happy and not care what others think (not just other random people). You can only live your OWN life, so why not attempt to stand up for yourself and do all you can to make it a happy life? I know I’m far beyond sick and tired of tip toeing around others, making myself an emotional doormat that someone can just stomp on whenever they please. If someone doesn’t like something I have to say, well that’s your problem (because it’s not like I’m ever intentionally disrespectful to anyone, ever). 🙂
FYI OP, im judging you RIGHT now!
Wow. Pot, meet kettle. Do you realize how moronic this post sounds, OP? You’re looking down on people who you only assume are looking down at you? Get some self confidence, kid.
Or they could attempt to remove the chip off their shoulder, EWB. That’d help.
Newsflash, OP: not everyone’s out there to get you. Most of it’s likely in yo’ head. Jesus Christ you sound like me, unmedicated, in an airport/airplane. Heh.
I’m with PK on this one. You really need to learn not to give a sweet shit about these kinds of people. I’ve encountered them at my work and just have to chuckle at their “my shit hole is lined with flower petals’ attitude – nothing screams insecurity more than demonstrating a sense of superiority over your fellow human beans.
Maybe it just comes with age (yah yah I know I’m still young, but I remember my mother getting the same enlightening revelation as to this when she was around my age too), but as long as you’re straight with people with tact and respect, it’s not really your problem if they react negatively to it. Standing up for yourself, your needs and happiness is crucial to living a satisfying life because no one else’s gonna do it for you. You have to be your own advocate.
hell, it becomes a blast!
I’m with ya OP… the point is to try to laugh your ass off at how much they are trying…
they take hours… and genuinely believe they need to look like that at bars and shit all the time…
the prof and senior students need that to feel important.. like they’re bettering themselves or each other….
as for the bus, well sit anyways.
I’ll be called a hypocrite.. and I am… cause I let stupid stuff like coffee idiots and redundant signs ruin my day too… but those are on the worst days. the no-sleep/hungover/cranky days.
some days things are just laughable.
This is how I deal with my fellow “human beans”

Nyuk, Nyuk, Nyuk.
Vague pronoun overload.
This stuff would probably piss me off as well if I encountered it as often as you seem to. It sounds almost as if you look for it though. :/
” Maybe it just comes with age” Man, I got there long ago. I could care less what strangers think.
I’m just waiting for retirement now.

Everyone lets shit like that bother them on the shitty days, zed. And I don’t think you’re agreeing with OP so much as you’re saying “fuck it” and realizing these people trying so hard are just douche nozzles. I get the impression that OP has a chip on their shoulder and actually is bothered and does care what these people think of her. Even if she tries to hide it with her tough talk. I’ve been there. A whole long time ago. OP’s use of the word “teachers” leads me to believe she’s younger, and I think with time she won’t give a fuck about these people. For me it was being in a demanding, competitive major trying to prove that yes, I was an intelligent human being and yes, I did belong with the “smart kids.” It took a while, but I eventually learned that I didn’t have to prove anything to anyone. And now I am starting to recognize my talents, strengths, and weaknesses. I think OP’ll get there, eventually.
Yeah, donk, I didn’t give much of a crap years ago — it’s the people I have to interact with and have interpersonal relationships with that I had a hard time with. I didn’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings or make them not like me. I’ve been a people-pleaser since the day I was born, man. Which has led to some really unpleasant situations pour moi. I just figure that going into my 30s, it’s time to cut the shit. Like me or don’t — I am who I am. *shrug*
you did warn them Ivan.

between hitler pics and that, I’m actually in good spirits.
twisted, I know
now to go maim a picture of a defenseless animal in front of some random little kids at day care and I can call it a day.
OP, you are assuming people are out to get you or judge ya. its inevitably going to happen once in awhile. its human nature, get use to it.
but dont waste your time assuming everyone is sitting there judging you. as they say, when you assume, you make an *ASS* out of *U* and *ME*
sorry, i had to. im shutting up now.
I suppose I should be helpful once in a while…
Seriously OP, just give this a glance.

I knew someone who didn’t heed the signs and it was not pretty when they snapped….
VERY serious.
Bwa-Ha-Ha-Ha- Bravo Zedman. I didn’t even know about that picture. If you want to smuggle some Christopher Hitchens to the little Madeleine’s at the Convent of the Hungry Heart – I can hook ya up. >; )
Rich people wouldn’t buy a shitty SUV either.
Well, they may buy 2 expensive SUVs like an Escalade. And have someone buy them instead of stooping to driving it themselves.
I used to feel like the op does because of the bitches I had to deal with at school. I turned into this hateful person who despised anyone who wore American Eagle or any of those boring and overpriced clothes storesand would also start to make fun of them like they did me. But it really doesn’t help anything and doesn’t actually name you feel better in the long term. Now I don’t really judge anyone before I get to know them and am just my pleasant self to anyone I meet :). if they choose to be a bitch to me then fine. Bitches come in all forms, not just people who look like they think they’re really something awesome. I wad once “cyber bullied” (but I don’t take the internet and its inhabitants too seriously) because I commented on someones facebook post regarding something about how they hated Twilight. And I made some joke comment because I did enjoy reading the books then some girl with a goth-like picture commented on it trying to make fun of me or something for liking something so “dumb and mainstream”. In my school, goth kids were made fun of so I thought it was weird for her to to be so judgmental of me, someone shes never even met. But then I remembered I used to be like that from years of torment. Wow long rant! Haha. Just don’t be so negative all thee time op, and hopefully these stupid judgmental people won’t matter to you :)!
