Don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.

Have I told you all lately how much I DESPISE ignorant people? UGH. Seriously. I cannot stand stupid people. Like do they learn to be that dumb or are they born with it? I guess it doesn't matter. The end result is still the same: DUMB ASS.

Take for example today...
I decided to go to Timmy's to get my "free coffee" which I won from their roll-up-the-rim game. (Before I go on, I have to say that I'm already in a bad mood and to show it I'm wearing my "bad to the bone" outfit: grey houndstooth pants, burgundy slit-sleeve top, black jacket, burgundy shoes and my biker/rocker chick gun metal multi-chain necklace. I can be bad-ass and stylish too!) Since I was going, I was also going to pick up some coffee for a couple of my co-workers. When it was my turn to order, I ordered everything separately, so I could pay separately, and leave mine till the end. So I've been craving iced coffee for days and happily, they had it on this menu (I'm told that they don't have it in certain locations, though I don't believe that either). In all my years of "roll up the rim" and coffee-winning, I've known that you could get any beverage in any size. So this time was no different. I ordered my large ice coffee (which, let's be honest, is really just coffee with ice in it). The girl rings it up, I give her my free coffee stub and...she says "No. Cash." Uh, What? So, I was like "Uh, What?" She said, "You have to pay cash for this one." So I said, "Well, okay, then I will use this coupon for one of the other coffees." But she's all "I already rang those through". (At this point I was having "irritated face"). So I said, "Fine then. I don't want it." She looks at me incredulously and says "You don't want it?!" (However, she had already started to make it). And I smugly said "NO." OMG. Like I was SO irrritated. First because I was already grumpy, second because she was so rude and stupid and third, because I DIDN'T GET MY COFFEE.

Anyhoo. I know I'm not going to be leading any protests or boycotts of Tim's anytime soon. (Plus, Hello - I don't think anyone would join me if I did.) But... I'm in a foul mood, so please excuse me as I stomp around in anger.

Thank goodness I wore my biker/rocker chick gun-metal, multi strand necklace today! It totally frames my scowl perfectly.
