Dear Paul,

Please stop hanging over my shoulder and asking me to document what I'm doing with the periodical binding. It's distracting me from actually figuring out how to do the periodical binding. When I'm actually done with the periodical binding process I'd be more than happy to write something up. Especially if I've done it right.

Dear Erika

If we work in the same room, not twenty feet from each other and you have loud conversations, I am not eavesdropping. I can't help but hear what you say. I don't particularly want to hear what you say either, since you appear to only be saying nasty things about people.

Dear Harvey,

I politely asked you to check next time to see if I'm in the room before you turn off the lights and shut the door. You're not going to be hearing voices from me because I'M THE ONLY ONE IN THE DAMN ROOM AND I GENERALLY DON'T TALK OUT LOUD TO MY SELF! You did not need to say after I asked you to next time check to see if I'm still in the room, that next time I need to check to see if the students who pulled the periodicals for binding don't push them against the wall. That makes no sense, and I'm not in charge of the students. If you don't want them pushing them against the wall, tell them yourselves.

Kippur

Ugh. I hate people who talk crap about others like that, and don't at least try to be a little less conspicuous about it. I had to deal with that a lot my last year at my alternative school. I have this thing where you just...don't talk shit about someone in public, especially if that person is in the same building.

It's the most frustrating thing in the world. Fortunately, she's been moved into another room, so I don't have to hear her anymore.

My mom says that you should never say anything bad about someone to anyone.

[reverie-shadow.livejournal.com]

Well, gossip is kind of inevitable to anyone. I suppose it's kind of human nature. You cannot NOT say bad or mean things about someone unless you're extremely disciplined or otherwise don't know anybody. To me it's just courtesy to wait until you're at home or something before you start bitching about someone.

You could say the same thing about the way people openly mock Paolini, but I doubt people see it that way because it's not like they know Paolini personally.

This all more or less comes from personal experience, though. For instance, when me and my sister were still at each other's throats (literally. She tried to strangle me once), she would talk shit about me to people while I was in the same fucking room. Then one day I just exploded, and we slowly reconciled over time.

There's gossiping and then there's intentional backstabbing, which is what Erika is doing. Her talking has gotten one of our co-workers into a lot of trouble with the boss.

[reverie-shadow.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that's bad.

A rant is good for you once in a while :)

Erika sounds like a real pleasant person to be around, real similar to someone I used to work with. Sad thing is, she was like 52 years old and still ran around gossiping and backstabbing like it was the 8th grade.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

Rants are extremely soothing.

Erika is very pleasant person to be around, except when you're not talking to her. She seems to be intent on getting everyone in trouble. Fortunately I don't have that many interactions with her, so it's harder for her to lay the blame on me for things.

What a bunch of -to be delicate- very annoyin people. u.u

Send them all to hell.

Better yet, give them Eldest in their birthday.

[reverie-shadow.livejournal.com]

Haha. That reminds me of Swankivy's series of pictures with her friend giving her a copy of "Eldest" as a gift, and she knocked his lights out.

Nothing says "Fuck you" like buying someone a copy of horrendous literature.

eldest gift

[swankivy.livejournal.com]

Yes, Eldest should never be given as a gift. NEVAR!!!

(Erm, and just for the record, it was all an act. The pictured gifter did not actually try to give me that book for my birthday. And I have an extremely amusing series of photos of a similarly staged event involving his attempt to go to the bathroom and using Eldest as toilet paper after realizing there was none on the roll.)

Re: eldest gift

[reverie-shadow.livejournal.com]

I know it was an act, seeing that I saw the gifter (Mikey, right?) was pictured in your previous essays before that one. Still, it was pretty amusing.

Anyone who didn't think it was an act is probably, um, not the smartest bulb in the bunch.

Re: eldest gift

[swankivy.livejournal.com]

Oh yes, I certainly imagined *you* would have known it was a setup, but considering just about anyone could read this in a public forum and *not* know the context . . . ::gasp:: THEY MIGHT THINK ME VIOLENT! We can't have that, can we? Never in a million years would I deck someone because they gave me a crappy gift. . . .

Erm, well, maybe I'd have to consider it in the case of the Inheritance Trilogy . . . perhaps it is an experiment better left unperformed.

Wait until you work in an office full of gossiping middle-ages ladies. O_O In the office I worked in, the women would waste the first hour or two gossiping, and THEN they would work.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

Hah. Erika seems to do it between breaks of work. is very disconcerting.

[jacedraccus.livejournal.com]

Kill them all with fire.

Start the fire with Eldest.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

Sounds good to me! =D
