9 Things I Dislike About People

Posted in fun, life on July 30, 2007 by nckyra


1. People who point at their wrist while asking for the time…. I know where my watch is pal, where the hell is yours? Do I point at my crotch when I ask where the toilet is?

2 People who are willing to get off their ass to search the entire room for the T.V. remote because they refuse to walk to the T.V. and change the channel manually.

3 When people say “Oh you just want to have your cake and eat it too”. Damn right! What good is cake if you can’t eat it?

4 When people say “it’s always the last place you look”. Of course it is. Why the hell would you keep looking after you’ve found it? Do people do this? Who and where are they? Gonna Kick their asses!

5 When people say while watching a film “did you see that?”. No Loser, I paid $12 to come to the cinema and stare at the damn floor.

6 People who ask “Can I ask you a question?”…. Didn’t really give me a choice there, did ya sunshine?

7. When something is ‘new and improved!’ Which is it? If it’s new, then there has never been anything before it. If it’s an improvement, then there must have been something before it, couldn’t be new.

8 When people say “life is short”. What the hell?? Life is the longest damn thing anyone ever does!! What can you do that’s longer?

9 When you are waiting for the bus and someone asks “Has the bus come yet?” If the bus came would I be standing here, dumbass?

Have a great week!

Thoughts

no whining


Yeah, I can whine because this is MY page!!!!

Some of you know I have been involved in a relationship for almost 3 years. There have been ups and downs of this relationship, just like any marriage or any couple goes through. I can understand that part as life is full of all kinds of trials for couples to endure. What happens when you feel like giving up and you do not want to go any further in said relationship? What happens when you totally fall out of love with a person?

Yes, I know the answer to that question is to talk to him and tell him EXACTLY how I feel. I’ve done that and his reply is “I don’t want you to leave” even though I feel it would be the best thing to do! He owns no furniture in the apartment, except for an entertainment center and a couple of bookcases and of course a computer desk. I, on the other hand, have living room furniture, bedroom suite, computer desk, dishes, pots and pans, etc. Why should I have to move since I have more stuff? He says it’s because I want to leave and that HIS name is on the lease. We are under no lease at the present and I was listed on the lease as Occupant!!!

My friends are really great as I can talk to them and the reply is “We will stand by you whatever your decision is.” So I am not pushed either way, but I still want or should I say need someone to tell me what they would do and how they would go about it. I was told over this weekend that the car I did not want back at April, 2006, but signed the note for him to have a car to drive back and forth to work, that I was being used, or his words, “Your credit was being used”. I look at this, USED is being USED, no matter what it is!!! I can not AFFORD this car if we separate as he is making the payments on it, but he doesn’t want it in HIS name because if I leave, HE can not afford the payments on it.

My solution on that problem? I am filing bankruptcy and the car goes!!! I refuse to be held responsible for something I did not want or need. When the bank comes to repossess the car, I won’t have a car to drive as the car I use to have, I sold to pay for a washer and dryer that I needed because he felt that it was ok for me to lug the laundry back and forth to the laundry mat, even I complained so much about the backache from standing to fold the clothes. He had a big problem when I bought the washer and dryer, saying “We can’t afford it”, well it was awful freaking funny that we could afford a $432 car payment before I had it refinanced about seven months ago and it dropped to $375.

I am really at a lost end on what to do or how to go about it. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Please don’t worry about offending me, it’s hard to do!

Have a great Sunday!

Questions that haunt me

Posted in Humor on July 27, 2007 by nckyra

Can you cry under water?

How important does a person have to be before they are considered assassinated instead of just murdered?

Why do you have to “put your two cents in”.. but it’s only a “penny for your thoughts”? Where’s that extra penny going to?

Once you’re in heaven, do you get stuck wearing the clothes you were buried in for eternity?

Why does a round pizza come in a square box?

What disease did cured ham actually have?

How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on luggage?

Why is it that people say they “slept like a baby” when babies wake up like every two hours?

If a deaf person has to go to court, is it still called a hearing?

Why are you IN a movie, but you’re ON TV?

Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground?

Why do doctors leave the room while you change? They’re going to see you naked anyway.

Why is “bra” singular and “panties” plural?

Why do toasters always have a setting that burns the toast to a horrible crisp, which no decent human being would eat?

If Jimmy cracks corn and no one cares, why is there a stupid song about him?

Can a hearse carrying a corpse drive in the carpool lane?

If the professor on Gilligan’s Island can make a radio out of a coconut, why can’t he fix a hole in a boat?

Why does Goofy stand erect while Pluto remains on all fours? They’re both dogs!

If Wile E. Coyote had enough money to buy all that ACME crap, why didn’t he just buy dinner?

If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from vegetables, what is baby oil made from?

If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons?

Do the Alphabet song and Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star have the same tune?

Why did you just try singing the two songs above?

Why do they call it an asteroid when it’s outside the hemisphere, but call it a hemorrhoid when it’s in your butt?

Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog’s face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him for a car ride, he sticks his head out the window?

Birthdays

Yep, another year has rolled by and today is my birthday! I remember when I could not wait for my birthday to come. Now it seems it comes way too soon! You wanna know how old I am? I am one of those women that don’t mind telling her age, I am 52 years old today.

I do have plans for the evening with a home cooked dinner from my best friend and her cousin, complete with a birthday cake! I am excited about that, because I will be with those that mean so much to me. You ask if it will be a family get together? Afraid not this time, they are not family, they are my best friends and partner. I do not come from a very close knit family.

Oh, I might get a call from my sister and one of my niece’s today, but that’s about it. I really don’t like to “celebrate” this day as I really feel that a birthday celebration should be done for children. You know what I am saying, a birthday party at Chucky Cheese or somewhere like that.

What this writing is really about is last night, the day BEFORE my birthday. I was visiting with my best friend and her cousin as we get together once or twice a week. Upon getting ready to leave, I heard my best friend’s cousin say “Give it to her now” and I immediately looked at my best friend and told her that she had better not bought me a birthday present. She replied to me and said “No, I didn’t BUY you anything, but I DO have something I want to give you”.

She left the room and came back in a few minutes. I was seated at the end of the sofa and she came back and told me to “Close your eyes and hold out your hand”. I closed my eyes, held out my right hand. I felt something thing like a chain and she told me to open my eyes. What I saw was absolutely beautiful. She had given me one of her family heirlooms as a token of our friendship. It was a genuine heart-shaped ruby pendant.

I know the picture is not very clear as I just took it myself. It does show the ruby and the little pendant on the left is 1/2 of a BEST FRIEND pendant that my best friend, Melisa and I share. I wear the BEST and Melisa wears the FRIEND pendant. I cried when she told me that her grandmother wore this pendant and she wanted me to have it, because she wants me to know how much she cares about me. I am truly honored to have this wonderful lady in my life as my best friend. I love you Melisa!!!

The North and the South

Posted in Humor on July 23, 2007 by nckyra

I got this today from a friend of mine in email and thought I’d share with you!

woman laughing

The North has Bloomingdales, The South has Dollar General.

The North has coffee houses, The South has Waffle Houses.

The North has dating services, The South has family reunions.

The North has switchblade knives, The South has Lee Press-on Nails.

The North has double last names, The South has double first names.

The North has Indy car races, The South has NASCAR.

The North has Cream of Wheat, The South has grits.

The North has green salads, The South has collard greens.

The North has lobsters, The South has crawfish.

The North has the rust belt, The South has the Bible Belt.

FOR NORTHERNERS MOVING SOUTH . . .

In the South: – If you run your car into a ditch, don’t panic. Four men in a four-wheel drive pickup truck with a tow chain will be along shortly. Don’t try to help them, just stay out of their way. This is what they live for.

Don’t be surprised to find movie rentals and bait in the same store…..do not buy food at this store.

Remember, “y’all” is singular, “all y’all” is plural, and “all y’all’s” is plural possessive

Get used to hearing “You ain’t from round here,are ya?”

Save all manner of bacon grease. You will be instructed later on how to use it.

Don’t be worried at not understanding what people are saying. They can’t understand you either.

The first Southern statement to creep into a transplanted Northerner’s vocabulary is the adjective “big’ol,” truck or big’ol” boy. Most Northerners begin their Southern-influenced dialect this way. All of them are in denial about it.

The proper pronunciation you learned in school is no longer proper.

Be advised that “He needed killin.” is a valid defense here.

If you hear a Southerner exclaim, “Hey, y’all, watch this,” you should stay out of the way. These are likely to be the last words he’ll ever say.

If there is the prediction of the slightest chance of even the smallest accumulation of snow, your presence is required at the local grocery store. It doesn’t matter whether you need anything or not. You just have to go there.

Do not be surprised to find that 10-year olds own their own shotguns, they are proficient marksmen, and their mammas taught them how to aim.

In the South, we have found that the best way to grow a lush green lawn is to pour gravel on it and call it a driveway.

AND REMEMBER: If you do settle in the South and bear children, don’t think we will accept them as Southerners. After all, if the cat had kittens in the oven, we wouldn’t call ‘em biscuits.
