My phone rang last night

"Hello?"
"Hi Jordyn, sweetie. It's Mary."
"..."
"Your dad's girlfriend."
"oh uh ok."

I see my dad about once every 5 years. Now his girlfriend his calling me? What in the fuck. She starts getting all weepy and shit and my immediate thought "ah fuck, my dad didn't die or some shit, did he? I can't go to some funeral and pretend to be sad."

No, apparently my dad's mom died. Sometimes referred to as a grandma. I didn't really know her either though so whatever.

Mary wants me to talk to my dad on the phone, like what do I say? Gosh dad, sorry that lady I guess I was related to but didn't know at all died. She puts him on the line and he says a bunch of stuff including "it's nice to hear your voice" which kinda pissed me off, and a bunch of other stuff pissed me off.

But before Mary handed him the phone she said "I love you."

I LOVE YOU. This lady I never talk to, who I have met a total of maybe 3 times had just decided to say "I love you" to me, expressing, among others things, the fact that she knows absolutely nothing about me and is stupid.

I replied


"uhng"


How have you improperly replied to things?

    This one time a guy walked up to me and was all like, "Hey, fag. Why don't you go get a job?"

    And I was all like, "SLEEP NOW IN THE FIRE!"

    And I started headbanging around him.

    No, wait.

    That was the proper response.

    My roommate's girlfriend's father, after being diagnosed with terminal cancer, discussed with his doctor the things he wanted to do before he died.

    Doc: "Well, what sorts of things, sky diving, mountain climbing, etc?"

    CancerDad: "Well...I've never fucked a midget."


    During his memorial service a week or two ago the minister began talking about 'Living life to the fullest, etc.' and CancerDad's wife whispered to their daughter (my roommate's girlfriend) 'This is the midget speech' and she burst out laughing.

    We tried so hard to find a female midget who would dress up in a nurses outfit for when he became bedridden. Midgets are harder to find that you'd think.

    At my last job, which was at a library on my college campus, the boss that I really liked got replaced by the boss that I ended up really hating. In another branch of the library, the woman's husband was also employed manager/alcoholic. Now, it so happens that I often ended up in this other branch of the library frequently, and was good friends with many of the employees there, so would often hang around. Whilst doing so, I was just casually glancing at the shelves where they keep books people have put on hold for later pickup.
    I noticed, that among many self-help and motivational books that the husband had, were two books dealing with custody battles. That boss-lady was always showing pictures of their little baby.
    Later that week, when ms. boss-lady came and sat on my desk and told me that she just wanted everyone to know she was going through a tough time and that she was beginning the process of divorce and she just hoped everyone would understand, I giggled.
    I didn't mean too, it just came out.

    One day at work there was a long line of cutomers. Usually the general response when you start with a new customer is 'Thank you for waiting'.

    I didn't say it to one customer and because he was an ass he said, "thank you for waiting". To make me feel bad for not saying it to him.

    I just said "no problem" and finished serving him.
