Yeah. Good Times.: I have no time for passive aggressive bullshit

I have no time for passive aggressive bullshit

Oh my god it makes me crazy.

YOU know what I mean. The person who says cryptic things; possibly talking about you but definitely not to you? I. CAN'T. FUCKING. STAND. IT.

If somebody has something to say to me? Just fucking say it. Don't go behind my back and talk shit, don't stop talking to me because you're a big baby and you're afraid to speak up... just say it. Or fuck off! I have no time for this shit! I've got all kinds of shit going on my life, both online and not, and don't have the time (and I definitely don't have the interest) to sit there and try to figure you out. "OMG. Did I say something wrong? What's going on? Are they talking about me? Are they mad at me?" I no longer care.

Now, before anybody accuses me of being a hypocrite by posting this seemingly passive aggressive post of my own, let me just tell each and every one of you right now that if I have a problem with you? You are going to know know about it. I should actually amend that previous statement to say that "if I have a problem with you and I care about your opinion...." In the last few weeks people have been coming to me with links to blog posts and they say shit like "Is she talking about you???" Well I have no fucking clue if somebody is talking about me, unless they use my name, so my answer is always "no." Because how the fuck am I supposed to know? And since I don't know, my answer is NO. They are not talking about me. Somebody else must have gotten their panties in a twist, but it wasn't me. So, I assure you that this post is not actually passive aggressively (passively aggressive?) directed toward any one (or two or three or four) person in particular.

I just wanted to make a general statement, one that I've made before, in fact; about 2 1/2 years go. If you've got something to say to me? Just say it. Otherwise? Fuck off.

Look! Here's how you can reach me and tell me whatever your problem is with me. How exciting!!!! jillsmo@gmail.com

P.S. Despite me having said that this post isn't about anybody in particular, if you still don't believe me? ASK ME. I'll bet you $500 the answer will be no.

P.P.S. I don't actually have $500 so you should probably take that bet, because I might have to owe you.

You know what I respect about you the most? You say what you mean. Not a lot of people do that. I also think you're really funny. I like that too. I believe we've covered the fact that I like funny things. You're a BAMF. Never change.

I heart you, too, Jill! Not so sure about drunk karaoke, I might leave that to you and Dawn, but I'd definitely do the drunk thing with you two. :D

I get more irritated with the people who ask if person X is talking smack rather than the person doing the smack talking. I personally cannot stand pot stirrers (is that a word, if not it should be)

I vote for a glass of wine as we lift the 1 finger salute to those who have nothing better to do than stir the shit

I admire people who have so much free time they can be passive aggressive and talk about other people. Wait, did I say admire? I meant "hate the fucking guts of". Ooopsie, always getting those confused! Cuz I'm busy, see?

I hate it when people write blog posts about certain behaviors I'm not sure if I exhibit or not. JUST KIDDING.

While these types of cryptic messages are definitely annoying, I think the ones I detest the most go a little something like this:

"Oh, woe is me. Why does my day and my week and my month have to be so bad? Why did that one person do that one thing and make me feel that one way? "

Comment: "Oh no. I hope you're OK. What's wrong?"

Reply: "Message me."

Message me. Message your own ass. If you don't fucking want to put it on public display, DON'T FUCKING PUT IT ON PUBLIC DISPLAY.

And you're funny. The end.

Is this about me? Did I make you mad? Just say it, Jill. I'm sorry I ate the whole world of Papa John's garlic goo...but you don't have to passively agressively call me out.

You have the coolest commenters...or rather people commenting on your blog. And you should never have to wonder: It's ALWAYS about you because you're that awesome.

P.S. Did someone say cake???

Wait--you're Jewish. Do you guys even have to worry about demons? I thought that Catholics were the only ones with that kind of partying. I wore a religious medal for months after seeing that movie.

Okay--that is NOT what I typed! Stoopid passive aggressive internet!

What I said was, I love you. Also, you don't ever answer your emails, so that would be a way to smack the passive aggressive idjits. It kills them to be ignored.

Maybe I'm not supposed to be laughing at this but I'm sort of laughing at this. Because you're funny. Not because I'm inappropriate and don't care that some random people may or may not be talking about you and not because I'm confused and didn't really know that people do this stupid shit on their blogs. Just 'cause you're funny. And I'll be sure to use your name and link to you if I ever say anything about you :) I'm nice like that.

I thought I just commented but apparently, I'm even more inept than I realized. Anyway - people are stupid. You're awesome. Screw them!
