A few months back I was inspired by my favorite magazine, Glamour. In this magazine I look forward to the monthly "Hey, it's okay" page where people write in and say ironic and humorous things that are quite frankly, okay to feel. I thought I'd give it a twist this time however and create a "Hey, it's NOT okay" list. So here it goes...
HEY, IT'S NOT OKAY...
- to honk your horn when the light is red. It is best to wait for the intersection to clear before you proceed.
- to talk about politics...ever. This breeds hatred for your friends and also makes your heart palpitate and say things like, "You are a bleeping moron, how could you bleeping not vote for bleep." Not cool.
- that there are diaper wipes in my staff's adult bathroom. Oh, and no one has a baby. Is this what happens when you get older?
- to wear slippers as shoes, and leggings as pants, and hoodies as coats.
- to update your facebook status 15 times a day. I'm sorry, but I just don't care where you are, what you're eating, and who you are with.
- Not to use manners. If someone sends you a gift, say thank you. If you walk in front of someone, say excuse me. How has society suddenly forgot these holy rules?
- To put up Christmas stuff in the stores before Thanksgiving. Every holiday should get its fair share of observance.
- To ask your parents for money after age 25. You've graduated, you have a job, grow up. Let your dad buy that red convertible and you find your pride.
- To give me a Pepsi when I ordered a Coke.
- For Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner to not have egg foo yung gravy. I know it's my Chinese heritage, but the meal just isn't the same without it. Period.
