About a year ago, a lady was behind me on the pharmacy line at Walgreens. I was picking up an antibiotic and this woman was literally on top of me. So as the pharmacist handed me my pills, she told me that the antibiotics would affect my bc. The lady behind me says, "Isn't that a wedding ring on your finger? Why are you on bc if your married?" The pharmacist yelled at her and told her to back up. Chat Icon Chat Icon




You should've responded, "It's so I don't get knocked up by my boyfriend, that would really put a damper on my marriage!"

This is one of my biggest pet peeves! And the quickest way to piss me off lol!

If someone is standing too close I usually flip my hair and hit them with it Chat Icon I have pretty long hair and that usually works.



This is one of my biggest pet peeves as well!! Chat Icon Chat Icon WHY don't people understand the concept of personal space? It creeps me out so bad having some random person SO close!

Thanks for the hair flipping idea- I am definitely gonna try it out Chat Icon

Re: Spinoff - Personal Space

Ugh! This is gross but even worse is that personal space invasion of another special kind. When you are in a store (or wherever) and then you smell that someone farted. If I'm with my DH or kids, I'll ask if it was them. I have to know. If they say no, I am almost sick. I never want to be that personal with a stranger's azz. Ever.
I do not miss the days of public transportation. I had someone threaten to knock the stew out of me for trying to get her off my fingers on the middle pole on the subway by wiggling my fingers. She was in my face and leaning her whole body on it. I would have been better off telling her to get off but some people really will knock the stew out of you, jeez, she was tough, I was afraid. I just wanted her off my fingers.

I hate it when I am at the checkout and am paying w/a debit or credit card and the person is right on top of me. I sometimes give them a dirty look and say Excuse Me!!!. If you stand closer you aren't going to check it any faster............Chat Icon

This is one of my biggest pet peeves! I am always telling people to back up. I've learned to keep my shopping cart behind me at the grocery store when checking out. That way, after I bag my stuff I can use the debit machine without having them breathing on me. If all else fails, I will start throwing elbows Chat Icon
