in ASL (American Sign Language) with about a dozen other people.
I have managed thus far to be nothing less than charming.
But I kid you not, stupid people drive me crazy.
I have to work really hard not to wish ill upon them.
I try to be nice, after all, its probably not their fault they have the IQ of a rutabaga. I just don't understand why they can't be stupid QUIETLY! Is that too much to ask??

WOOOHOOO! Comment No. 1!!!
Ha! You thought you had TWO comments but in fact it's just Dorky Dad making another one.
I LOVE stupid people. Stupid people make me feel good about myself. They make me feel proud that I can drive. That I can put my underpants on correctly. That I flush the public toilet with regularity. I can use all the confidence I can get.
Why is it that stupid people are so vocal? I'll be quiet now before I tar myself.
that, my friend, is one of the best segues into a rant ever. I heart you, Logo!
you know why? smart people get that way by listening.
i sometimes stay quiet to give people the illusion that i'm smarter than i actually am.
Like Furious...I am working on the "Im the quiet genius" type...
How am I doing?
:))
ROTF
Dorky Dad~ You're number one! You're number ONE! Congrats!! And thank you for being so enthusiastic about that, it makes me feel more important than I really am. I don't mind the existance of stupid people, I just don't want to have to HEAR them. If you like having them around I will not outlaw them completely when I take over the world.
Goldennib~ I don't know exactly what the deal is with that either. Extremely vocal clever people can be annoying too though. So yeah, maybe I'll shut up now :p
Arm~ Happy Bunnies are always appropriate, especially if there is a rant coming
Furiousball~ I stayed quiet one time, I distinctly remember it, I thought my head was going to blow up!
Susie~ Uuuuuh, I totally took you for a genius, I dont know about the quiet part.
I have little patience for stupid people too, until I realize that by calling them stupid, I am making (most likely) the wrong assumption that I am samrter than they are, which, at least in my case, is probably not true!!
I have to agree with Dorky Dad here...it is the stupid people that make me look good! LOL But I agree with you...they could be a whole lot quieter.
THANK YOU! I just a stupid person encounter today, this post was very much needed. Love it.
Damn those stupid people! Grrrrr!
Good luck on the signing. There are lots of sign language animations online for reference as well. :)
I wonder how you say STFU in ASL. For some reason I find it amusingly ironic that they are being loud in sign language class.
I think there is one universal sign they might understand if it gets too bad. . .
You'd think that in a sign language class they would be stupid quietly!!
good luck in your class! looking forward to hearing more about it. what made you choose this one, if you don't mind my asking?
it sounds like a perfectly reasonable request to me
Amen, girl.
And I love happy bunny.
Why is it so freakin hot here????? This is Seattle for Christ sake.
needed to vent to my neighbor.
=o)
Please visit me in the classroom and especially on parent teacher conference night in the hood-I would love to see your reaction. You would either explode from containing your anger or letting it have free reign.
Hang in there and don't use the ubiquitous one finger gesture. :)
i am turning ditzy in my old age. please don't hit me.
You manage to pack more ranting into about five lines than anyone I've ever seen.
That's a compliment.
Hey Logo! I wanted to come by and let you know that I have tagged you for a meme. It is actually a fun meme.
Take care!
xoxo
Lizard Princess~ You are so gracious, that is a very healthy point of view.
Em~ Or at least they should be vocally stupid out of our earshot, right?
Michelle~ I live to serve and ranting as a public service seems like a great calling.
BS~ I have been loving the online resources, so great and yeah! Damn stupid people, grrrrrrr
Candace~ You could probably fingerspell it :p I have refrained from any obscene gestures...in class
Airam~ One could hope, but stupid people find a way to be stupid, in traffic, in sign language, "I see stupid people!"
Brookem~ Thanks, I am going to be teaching sign at our homeschool co-op in the fall so I needed to brush up. Its been over ten years since I was realy fluent.
Lime~ Thanks, I knew you would be on my side.
Ann~ Oh, I hear ya, that was soooo wrong. So very wrong, it should never be that hot. Whoever is pissing off the gods better knock that shit off, dammit! :p
Wreckless~ You have a cruel streak, doncha?
Crystal~ Never would! May I mock you?
Doug~ I bet you are a smarty pants no matter what.
Blue~ Happy Bunny channels my inner self, I... I feel complete
Jocelyn~ Thank you, I may put that in my sidebar, high praise indeed.
Breazy~ Awesome! I needed to get a new post going, thanks. Have a good vaca.
So, does this automatically make you a member of the Happy Hands Club?
Grunt~ yes
and I can do jazz hands too
