Reason 11 billion that I loathe the mall.

On Wednesday both Jason and I had the day off. So we went shopping. For socks.

I know. Could we BE more exciting?

Anyway. At some point I had to use the restroom and was very excited that the Mall restroom had one of those cyclonic hand-dryers. You know, the ones that blow the absolute crap out of your hands, so you don't have to use a paper towel to dry them off after you are done, thereby negating any positive effect you had on the environment like the normal hand dryers do?

Those.

So while I was peeing, I heard someone's cell phone ring and of course the person answers it while SHE was peeing, and then told the caller that she was peeing, because she was just that classy.

She and I both got done peeing at the same time, apparently, and we were both at the sink. I was washing my hands and she was fixing her hair. I dried my hands with the cyclonic dryer which is REALLY freaking loud.

And that? Really pissed off Tits McGee with the cell phone.

She gave me this LOOK.

You know what I'm talking about. Like, "OH MY GOD HOW DARE YOU INTERUPT MY CELL PHONE CALL WITH YOUR HAND SANITATION RITUAL!"

When the dryer stopped running, she rolled her eyes and said to her caller, "ANYWAY!"

And you know what else? She didn't wash her hands. Clearly it would have interfered with her excuriatingly important cell phone call about boys and stickers and jellybeans and unicorns and...I don't know, David Cassidy or something.


I hate the mall. All the nasty people are there.

Ew! at not washing her hands!

I would have re-cycloned my hands after that look. The environment would forgive me I'm sure.

Oh that's priceless, that dirty-cell-phone talker lady. Hilarious.

Hey, not all the people at the mall were nasty.
You forgot about one way cool Chick and her awesome Dude husband!

Blessings.

Ew! For the love of God!

People who answer the phone in a public restroom always surprise me. Just ew. Text or something but don't talk on the phone in the bathroom!

What really pisses me off? Walk up to my pharmacy counter, talking on your cell phone and get irritated at ME for asking you questions, then, in your 'you're interrupting me' tone, tell the person...'hold on' Most of the time, I don't wait on you if you are jabbing your jaws.

Dreamer said...

Wow. That?? Is disgusting, not washing her hands and being a beyotch. Geesh.

Eeewww gross. Learn proper manners high school girl. Have you noticed the return of the 80s? Last time I was at the mall I saw a girl who seriously had Madonna fishnet gloves. THAT is certainly not one that deserves a repeat! And, I giggled like a school girl over David Cassidy. You so should've said that to see her uncomprehending stare.

you should have kicked her in the cookie jar!

David Cassidy..........lmao!

Ew.

To the non-hand washing, cell phone talking girl.

And to the mall.


I would have given that cyclone hand dryer an extra work out and dried my hands AGAIN.

Yuck.

One of my biggest pet peeves of all time: people who talk on their cell phone in a public restroom. Can they really NOT wait another 3 minutes to talk?

Thank heaven for the lovely people in the world who we can try to remember when we encounter schmucks like that. We'd lose all hope otherwise.

haha. You know what amazes me about the cyclonic hand dryer? The way it blows the skin on my hand so hard that I can watch it move. And yes, all the nasties are at the mall. I agree. :) Thanks for stopping by my blog! :)

Blech. SO nasty. Nasty enough when you're in your own house and don't wash your hands. But, in a PUBLIC restroom?! UGH!!

Ew, that is nasty. I have been in mall restrooms and they blow. "Tits McGee?" I LOVE IT!

Tootsie Farklepants said...

When she said "ANYWAY" I would have pushed the dryer button again. Clearly, I know how to have a good time. :)

Jenski said...

Ewww...I totally work with someone who doesn't wash her hands and I try not to think about it. I hope you got to the door before Tits McGee. Hehehe.

EE said...

Tits is the reason I refuse to touch bathroom door knobs.

Rachel (Crazy-Is) said...

People are freakin nastay!!! It takes a whole minute of your time to wash your hands!




Also, so it's not classy to talk on your cell phone whilst peeing. Crap.

Kidding. Sort of.
