That’s unfortunate. This year my husband and I pitched in for our own reverse hyper. That’s our Christmas gift to each other/ourselves.

Warrel Dane decided to die before he’d finished recording his new solo album.
Did give me the chance to make a great “Dead Heart in a Dad Warrel” joke though so there’s that.
When I hear office cows talking about eating shit office cows have no business eating. Bitch, you weigh 250# @ 5’1", put down the fuckin bagel and cream cheese and start eating food a real cow eats. Greens with oil and vinegar dressing.
Goddam office cows.

The one in my office has sat me down in the conference room to ask about keto and losing weight several times.
On monday she professes to everyone: “I’m going to go get some carbs, who’s with me?” Crickets
She returns with a bag of jack in the box and a XL soda

Plus when it’s delivered in 6,000 pieces with only a microscopic exploded view for assembly instructions you have your own team building exercise. Fortunately we both aren’t afraid to judiciously apply the use of a rubber mallet in assembly. It’s all together now 
I live in the NorthEast and we don’t have Jack in the Box up here. I recently took a trip to Houston and on my way to the hotel stopped at a Jack in the Box. I was very underwhelmed given how much hype they get.Now Hardees/Carl’s Jr on the other hand…
EDIT: But it was a diet soda … so she had that going for her … cutting the calories already

Kind of related, used to have a boss that’d always drink out of some gallon sized weight-watchers cup. I used to love walking by the office while she’d be drinking out of that and pounding a huge bag of potato chips. One of the top 5 most annoying voices I’ve encountered in my life too.
I’ve never been a huge fan of traditional fast food. Other than QDoba, Panda Express and Mod Pizza… which are slightly different imo.
I do think it’s hilarious that my co-worker is eating an extremely high fat diet for breakfast and lunch, then decides she can’t do it anymore and goes full on carb all in the same day. I’m sure she’ll sit me down in January and ask why she gained 15lbs.

I’m assuming she’s otherwise a nice enough lady … I would’ve cut that cord a while ago lol … what’s the definition of insanity?
Nah, she’s a complete pain in the ass. Lady got rear-ended a few months back. Just a little ding the size of a dime on her car. She now has a disability sticker for parking, has chiro and physical therapy 5 days a week. FIVE DAYS A WEEK! She told me the doctor told her not to do any physical work, don’t go for walks and just rest. It’s been three months!
Also… long-ish story, but I replaced her a few years ago, then she got re-hired when I moved into my new position so she doesn’t like me much.
So she’s a constant victim - got it.
Then why the fuck is she asking you for advice? lol … are YOU too nice to tell her to hit the bricks?
Exactly…
She just keeps coming back when she gets a moment of strength. When she comes to me in January. I’m going to tell her to eat all of her meals in front of a mirror…

brutal. I’m not saying not to do it. Absolutely do it. Nonetheless, brutal.

Had a crabby dude at my last job dealing with this same lady. She was also big time incompetent. One day when they got into an argument about how to do something (after 3 weeks trying to correct this lady’s behaviour) he loses his cool and says:
“Let me put this in a way you’ll understand: Moo moo, moo moo mooooo.”
He had to have a little talk with HR and wasn’t fired shockingly. They wrote him up for mooing at a coworker, guy printed it and hung that letter from HR in his den.

It angers me that when people see me and my husband holding hands, or were out in public they equate my love for him with accepted oppression. There’s nothing about my marriage that suggests I am even remotely oppressed.
It pisses me off that on one hand people of my husband’s ethnicity view my husband as a traitor, while on the other hand people of my ethnicity view me as a brainwashed, pacified, sell out.
Can’t tell you how many times I’ve come home crying, or my husband has come home furious, from random encounters from both men and women who feel the need to tell us how they think Love and Marriage should operate under social assumptions on skin color.
I am very well versed of where my heritage comes from, my husband is very well versed on slavery in its entirety. And I do understand that some interracial couples are social media fueled facades, or they’re simply in it for “new experiences”, or “for the fun”, or to quench General curiosity, and I have room for judgement
But my husband and myself said “fuck you, and fuck them”, and said I do, for better or worse because love knows no color. True love at least. My husband doesn’t look at me as some exotic experiment, or some pet simply for him to play with, and say, “yea been there, done that”. He looks at me as a life long friend, and someone who he can go on countless adventures with, be they big or small.
I say this because today was not a good day. At all. Lately it seems that we can’t even go to the movies without disgusting comments, rude stares, and snickering. Not to mention both of our fathers have practically disowned us.

Well that part sucks, but the rest of it? FUCK EM! Your happiness should never be hinged on what strangers think or say and yes I realise it’s easier said than done, but if they are that rude, they really deserve NO thought or negative emotions from either you or your partner. By having these emotions, you are letting these shallow people win.

I agree. But it’s like it’s getting worse or getting more frequent. I don’t know if it’s just Texas or whatever, but I can actually count on both hands how many instances we’ve ran into this year alone, and tonight is just inching closer to the last straw. In public I keep a straight face, pay no mind, but I’d be lying if I said once I get home I don’t experience hurt feelings. Because I do.
Who did you betray by marrying a different color person? The melanin in your skin cells?
Gonna have to go with ‘fuck the haters’ on this one. Also the joke’s on them because your children (should you have any) are going to have less chances for recessive genetic disorders than theirs.

Yea. I can’t seem to even begin to understand how people take it as some sort offense. I mean I can, but I also can’t.
