Self-Esteeming Pile.

So I was having lunch at one of my favorite local restaurants here, and had to laugh at something I overheard- well, not overheard as it was the only thing I could hear in the restaurant.  It was the usual sight - some airbrushed tart opening her mouth and letting really stupid, pretentious things fall out of it in the direction of some poor hapless Hollister disciple that was obviously less concerned with lunch than his presumed repayment of meal debt afterward.  Upon closer inspection (from across the restaurant) there was the glassy, preoccupied stare reserved for instances where someone is given unwanted criticism from a dipshit being cast her way while she mindlessly yapped and pushed some rice around her plate. 

The whole time I watched in admiration as the pair of them followed a lunchtime drill with military precision.  I don't usually take notice of these things, but this time, maybe feeling a little more romantic about it than usual, all I could think of was, "just think, pal; You wouldn't have to pay for lunch or listen to a dirty magazine."

You see, the whole reason I even noticed them was a high pitched "I'm like, really shy around people" come from their direction.  After that, she made every possible effort to prove herself a liar, and she did.  This abhorrent harpy proceeded to with great vigor proclaim how different she is without realizing that by her actions she was proving beyond a doubt how stereotypical she is.  Very similar to emo kids being all antisocial while standing in a group or having the same non-conformist conformity.

This doesn't mean I'm entirely sympathetic with him, though (not that I don't give him a pat on the back for jumping on that grenade for some other poor bastard).  After all, he was by all appearance, a douchebag.  He had the flipped up collar in white with an oversized hat he was unable to straighten, keys on a lanyard, iPhone, etc.  (Don't people wonder why those stores are dark with music so loud they cause a person's heart to go into arrhythmia?  Just grab something and stuff it in a bag - trust us, everybody's wearing them) .  I believe that people shouldn't be judged on appearance ordinarily, but in the strange case of douchebaggis majoris you can actually tell everything about them by what they wear.  He didn't need to say anything, not that he could get a word in anyway.  Just plain foolishness.

Til next time.
