"Nightmare"

[captain_slinky]

Molly and I were at CostCo today buying bacon and cheese (do they even SELL anything else?) when I overheard a woman at the Customer Service Desk complaining "And NOW you nee to take my picture AGAIN to replace my card? UUUUUUUGH! This is a *NIGHTMARE*!"

I hear rich white ladies use this "Nightmare" complaint A LOT, so I've decided on something; I'm gonna start carrying around a clown nose and/or mask with me wherever I go.

Next time I hear a Waspy Lady complaining that something mundane is a "Nightmare", I'll slip on my Clown Nose and rush at her yelling "YOU'RE LATE FOR THE POP-QUIZ IN ALGEBRA CLASS! WHY AREN'T YOU WEARING ANY CLOTHES? NO TIME TO EXPLAIN! YOU'RE FALLING! FALLING! FALling... falling..."

...And then I'll walk away as if nothing happened. THIS WAY, she'll be able to tell her friends all about the "Nightmare" she had at CostCo and it'll actually sound like a NIGHTMARE instead of just petty privileged bitching :)

*exasperated sigh* Such a NIGHTMARE! I can't find my red nail polish! No, the OTHER red nail polish! Like I'd really wear that red with this! *exasperated sigh*

I am going to start saying NIGHTMARE in hopes you show up and do this!

The proposed action has a lot of potential for fun AND disaster.
