Obnoxious Guest (nothing new)

I was having dinner w/ my boyfriend (I'm a CM, he's an AP) at the Blue Bayou last night (3/6/4) and there was a table of 3 women right next to us. It seriously looked like Grandma, Mother, and daughter. The daughter must have been in her early to mid twenties. She would not SHUT UP! First idiotic comment she makes is:

"OH my gosh, it's so crowded here today. . .
(duh bitch, it's SATURDAY, so just shut up and enjoy your dinner, while we enjoy ours)

". . . I walked into the bathroom. . .
(I hope you at least kept quiet while you used it!)

". . . and I realized that there are just SO MANY KIDS AT THIS PLACE!"

:roll:

WELL DUH! LOOK WHERE YOU ARE!

She was also talking about how she needs to lose weight (she wasn't overweight to begin with), while she was eating. She must have been eating the pork, because she made a comment about how she wishes that 10 women could taste what she was eating. Ok, so she said something POSITIVE, but we were wondering if she could even taste her own food!

If I was just a day guest, I would have at least got up, walked the 4 feet to her table, and bluntly tell her to shut up, and let other people enjoy the little bug-soundtrack of the Pirates of the Caribbean.

I'm Grumpy's bf...this woman just wouldn't stop yakking the whole meal...I can't believe she was able to ingest any food, since we never heard her stop talking...

I think they had complaints from people on the ride that they couldn't hear the singing over her and to turn up the soundtrack on POC! :lol:

(excerpt from her conversation)
" Oh, and my 10 yr.old likes his steak done medium...when we went to Outback and ordered him the child's menu steak, because they have a steak on the child's menu at a steakhouse, he told them he wanted it medium...can you believe it, the kid actually ordered his steak medium and that's what he wanted ...a medium steak...wow! ten years old and he ordered his own steak medium..."

Keep on Rockin,

Man, I would've done more than tell her to shut up....

I seriously hate people who do that. Restaraunts are for eating. If you want to talk about crap that nobody cares about...please, do it somewhere else.

I've had a few instances where people near me wouldn't shut up, and told them to shut up. Let's just say...people in California are really jerks and need to die.

Die I tell you, DIE! :evil:

ummm...so Freak, what do you do on dates at restaurants? :? OK, I've been married over 10 years now, so the hubby and I don't exactly get chatty when we're out these days - it's like I'm so tired and grateful that someone else is cooking, I haven't got a whole lot of energy for conversation. It's usally people who don't get together often who are the chattiest at restaurants - new couples, whatever. It isn't the conversation so much that bothers me as the volume...

I'd also like to throw a brick at those idiots who take their cell phones into dining establishments, then proceed to ignore the people who are seated with them while they talk at DOUBLE volume on their damn phones...grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr :throw:

^ Most of the "dinner dates" I've been on there wasn't that much chatting going on between us. It's weird, but I don't talk that much when I'm at dinner or something (be it with a date or my family, I just don't talk). I might throw my two cents in on a subject, but I don't rant and stuff. I guess it's just me. But once we left the restaraunt...boy did we have fun! 8)

Too bad that girl ended up leading me on, using me for money, and then dumping me... (she couldn't even tell me that we were done, she had to get one of her friends to tell me)

Oh well, good times all around right?

Do what I did, become a tibetan monk for 17 years. That will teach those broads!

:?:

well, I suppose that certain Buddhist sects are big on the tantric stuff (ask Sting and Trudie)...that could be a plus in one's favor after mastery...

lmao... that's EXACTLY what my dad does :roll: ...oh well, it makes it easy for me to get out of spending "quality time" and going out to lunch or whatever with him, since I refuse to make plans with him unless he promises to turn his phone OFF... and since he puts his work before everything, his phone is never off.

ugh...poor you. I don't know why they have to talk so loud - it's as if they're trying to prove to everyone seated around them how "important" they are, and that their business should be of interest to everyone within hearing range - sometimes I wonder if they are trying to cover up some sort of deep seated insecurity...

oh well - I guess that means you don't have to waste time with someone you'd rather not be with...
