Some people are just so fucking rude

Some people are just so fucking rude.

Old people to be exact. They tend to be the rudest people I know when it comes to seeing me post tx. I ventured back to my old pulmonary rehab today so work out. I was excited to see some people as it's been a long time, and while I got plenty of warm welcomes, some people in particular are just so rude with their comments that they aren't even aware of it.

Like one lady today. Hadn't seen me since August and the first thing she yells is, "OMG YOUR FACE IS SO FAT! IT'S THE FIRST THING I NOTICED!"

Um...Seriously? Are you fucking kidding me? Because i'm pretty sure it looks A LOT better than it did, you old bitch.

While I appreciate and advocate honesty 100% of the time, people need to learn when to seriously shut the fuck up when they breech the point of offending people. I just couldn''t beleive it. Short of extending my arm and squeezing her neck thus draining the air from her, i just stood there and glared at her. I promptly got my phone and sent my mum a text about how rude this person was and how i couldn't get over it.

I know my face is fuller, but I wouldn't say it's horribly so. And i'm overly selfconscious about it so it sucks that it's the first thing she said to me. But to her what's 'fat' isn't necessarily so. She knew me as gaunt and sick before, not colourful or healthy. But 'your face is so fat'? Seriously? I don't think so, I think u need to sit down and let me smack your mouth off.

I could've easily retorted with, "holy shit u've aged a 1000 years since i've seen you, but you're still just as much of a bitch as before and you've thoroughly reminded me of why i hated your old ass to begin with." But i didn't.

I did however, steal her treadmill as she walked up to it, and I took over 20 minutes on it, going as fast as i could. My humungous fat face bobbing above it the whole time.


FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK. YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU.

How come one person's story about rudeness just urges for others to tell their stories on rudeness?

Case in Point? I was reminded today by your post about the rudeness of a former classmate. I went to a reunion about a month or two ago.

It was a multi=-class reunion and one guy couldn't figure out who I was. When I told him, he said, "Wow. There's no way you're her. She was really ugly."

WTF? I retorted, "who are you again?" When he said his name, I replied, "Wow there's no way you're him. He was so smart."

You're gorgeous and don't let any wrinkled old bitch make you feel like you aren't! I've been getting asked if I'm pregnant lately, so it could be worse. When someone asks when I'm do I just smile sweetly and say "Actually I'm not pregnant, I have a deadly genetic disease that makes me look like this."

Hahahah, that's right, steal her treadmill! Some people don't think. I'm really self-conscious of my face right now too, I seriously have a double chin. Better to have a bit of fat and two new working lungs!
