The Vent - Part Trois

[Udella&Wiz 325]

Everyone has their flaws right?

My husband doesn't chew with his mouth open (thank god) but he takes the worlds biggest bites, it's absolutely insane. We'll sit down to eat, and he'll be done before I'm even half done, and he eats so much more! It's the worst when we have pasta. He shovels a huge folkfull into his mouth and then sits there looking like he has balloons for cheeks

My mother would look at him pointedly and say..."Where's the fire? Take time to enjoy the taste instead of shovelling it in'...and then she'd go back to slowly chewing as she always has I know this because my older brother has shovelled food in ever since I can remember...you'd think people were coming to take his plate away if he didn't eat fast enough.

My personal pet peave is people who use their thumb to push that last little bit onto their fork/ spoon. It is incredibley bad manners to do that...but it's acountry thing...my best friend does it, but I ignore her

Ugh. Chewing with your mouth open is THE most disgusting thing ever.

My flaws? I laugh at everything, even serious situations, I can't help it. People say: "Oh you must be nervous!" No I do find strange things absolutely hilarious... sorry?

I laughed at my grandpas funeral because the sniffling started to go to the beat of that "do wa diddy diddy" song, it could have very well been my imagination, and most certainly probably was. But when I busted out laughing so did the rest of my family, and I don't think they knew why they were laughing but damn it felt good to finally let that out at the time.

OMG. At my aunt's father's funeral there was some random girl there who was bawling her eyes out throughout the entire service. I mean sobbing bawling. I kept asking everyone who she was and nobody knew! Well, that just got me giggling and I had to keep suppressing it, which makes it even worse. No one ever did find out who she was. LOL

Spring has definitely sprung here and the tree pollen is unbelievable.

Ugh. We were in NC last weekend and came out the next day to go to church and the pollen on the car was crazy! I've never seen anything like it. My husband said he's never seen it that bad, either. Unfortunately, he suffers from allergies so he's been sleeping in the other bedroom. lol

So I was thinking it was just me at first, but it seems that the people in this area are very gruff and unfriendly, as well as unhelpful. The people in the shops get very passive-aggressive about helping you when they're the ones who offered their assistance to begin with! I miss Florida and their friendly, laid-back ways.

Well, all I can say is I am so glad I don't suffer from seasonal allergies!

I do, in as much as "all year" is a season. Yay off-brand Claritin.

Welcome to DC,lol

That is hilarious! Guess they don't have many Chinese restaurants in Calgary!

Well we do actually, in fact my Husband went to chinatown the night before last and picked up some stuff from our favourite restaurant - ahh it was lovely!

Sorry they aren't being friendly in DC krikit - it must be the cold!

Is there a city in Canada without a China town? Canada has a very high asian population. Poor man, probably doesn't get out too much.

That's what I was thinking! I have lived in some pretty small towns and everyplace had at least Chinese take-out.

[Rhiannercakes 14]

The city I lived in had like 5 Chinese places and nothing else.

No Italian, no mexican, no anything else... just 5 Chinese places

[Sprailenes 47]

Same here.. every town/city I have lived in... even places in rural Northern Ontario always had a Chinese restaurant.

The city of Toronto has two major China towns... there's like 6 or 7 in the entire GTA

The part that I found strangest about that entire encounter was, Why did he feel the need to tell me where he was from? Is there some sort of Canadian psychic link that lets you know when you are in the presence of other Canadians and this somehow lingers onto their spouses? The guy was freaking hilarious though. He looked like an 85 year old Rick Astley. I thought I was gonna get Rick Roll'd IRL.

I had to bite my tongue not to bust out laughing. Thank god another server came over and took my order before I couldn't hold it in anymore.

OMG Rob! LOL!!! I would not have had that self control -- LOL!

[darkchilde794 5]

It is so hot today. I was in the basement organizing stuff for 2 hours and was soaked in sweat! But I REFUSE to turn the AC. *MUST RESIST*

[Flames9_RN 358]

Ive had my AC on for days! Why suffer when a flip of the switch fixes the problem,lol

[Hugglebuggles 60]

Heh, I bought a house without A/C like an idiot It actually didn't even cross my mind at the time, I didn't think of it as an issue, but its only 70 outside and I'm already warm...

I wouldn't be able to handle it either.
