(Think and ponder on that a bit)<br /><br />I would rather have someone smack my face in blunt honesty than snicker behind my back as I tromp about making a fool of myself. <br /><br />I have a SERIOUS pet peeve. I am generally a nice person, you know, I don't say rude things in peoples faces. What I HATE is when there are these people that press for answers! They say something like, "well do you like it?", when you absolutely despise whatever it is that they are referring to. So, you quickly and desperately do some major brain work and honk out a very polite and honest AND vague answer like, "ooh, that is very interesting!", or "So where did you find that?", or "That is such a unique color.", anything to keep the complete truth from slipping out. (And you can do that without lying.) For most people that works. But then you have these tenacious over-zealous truth seekers who are begging for your 100% approval and they ask again. "Well, do YOU like it?" Oh that drives me nuts! Then you go to plan B and say something like, "Oh it's not something that I'd wear but......." and then you procede to try to find something nice to say about a terrible thing. The big problem is that some of these people would be SO offended if they knew what you really thought, but they keep asking. MAJOR pet peeve. <br /><br />Anywaz (oh that annoys me too! That, and things like U R KEWL, or .....bleh!)<br /><br />AgAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
