Is that an apology?!

20 01 2008

I was at a Wedding the other day. It was very very hot! I had my sunglasses in the top pocket of my suit jacket that was hanging over my arm as I was leaving the chapel (where the ceremony was held).

As I was stepping out of the crowded doorway I heard a crack. As I turned, a lady tapped me on the shoulder and said to me; “Did you drop your sunglasses?”
Upon checking the top pocket of my jacket I replied; “yes.”

She then responded with a quaint little statement. As she pointed to a table, she said; “There they are, I trod on them.”

Wha-! WHAT IS THAT!!?? No apology necessary lady!!!!
I understand that it was an accident and that it wasn’t her fault but she didn’t even grant me a proper sentence!!!!!! What is that!!!

They were all bent out of shape and as I proceeded to put them on, the lens fell out. Oh, it was messy!

All I ask for next time, lady, is proper grammar when ruining my belongings.

I like this ‘General Annoyance’ category, Stephen. I hope to see it updated on a regular basis.

As do I. I think we can all relate to stories about stupid and/or inconsiderate people. Always a good read.

The first time I went to the football I sprayed one of those li’l packets of tomato sauce all over the back of a woman who was wearing this nice navy and white polka-dotted dress. Didn’t apologise. Also didn’t own up to it. What would annoy you more, Steve? The “no apology”? or the “didn’t even go there”?

That was a wonderful story Stephen. I certainly hope you didn’t hit her like you did to me when I was in hospital.
