Do you know anyone who goes out of their way to correct people, even when it’s unnecessary, just to make themselves feel better than everyone?
I do.

Today’s Idiom: to pass the busk – to evade responsibility
I tired to pass the buck when my boss asked who specified the pink wall tile.
Hi! I'm Kim, a 34-year-old living in Chicagoland with my husband, Steven, and our cats, Khali, Apollo, and Starbuck. I work in the design industry (architecture), follow a vegan lifestyle, am addicted to running, and am an ACE certified personal trainer (working at Essential Fitness, LLC ("Efit"))! I write about a variety of topics, and consider this a "life" blog - a place I can share anything that's on my mind. Please visit the "About" page to get a better idea of who I am! :-)

Oh yeah. I can name about a dozen without even thinking twice about it.
🙁 Tell them to take a flying leap. They’re probably in the same club as the people who told me I am a waste of a human being yesterday. They must be campaigning.
I think your use of “everyone” twice is one sentence is excessive.
Hahaha. I kid.
No seriously, I’m joking! And yes, I want to wring those people around the neck and not let go. Until they’re blue in the face and they’ve stopped breathing. Though, I normally go with the more socially acceptable route of just walking away. ha.
I’m just giggling because I have that EXACT SAME NOTEPAD!!! Hee hee hee.
Everybody does. 🙁
If it’s not spoken directly, it’s thought about inside. It’s that little bit of OCD in all of us.
hahahaha, that picture is HILARIOUS! Just roll your eyes at them.
i love that notepad!!! that is awesome!!!
AH-ha-ha-ha! That’s an awesome note pad ‘ya got there, where can I get one of those!??? And, I surely know of that type of person (actually a few come to mind)…. there’s one at every single workplace. Yeah, they do need to get over themselves…. it’s hilarious. I just think of those people as “cheap entertainment” WHOOT! WHOOT! Love that notepad! Clever and funny post, made me LOL!
I need that notepad….like stat ;).
And yes, I know people like that. I try so hard NOT to be one of them!
I love those notepads!
And yes, I am familiar with this kind of person. Unfortunately.
Yes I do. Sux to work for one. Sux more to work with a dozen of ’em. So I left work early today. Like Hilly I try hard not to be one of them, sometimes with limited success. 😉
(were you successful in your buck-passing re pink tile? we had pink–plastic–tile in our bathroom growing up pink tile gives me the heebie-jeebies)
kapgar – Hmm, I am not that high yet. At least, not off the top of my head.
Kyra – I just wonder what makes these people so rotten. It doesn’t bother me too much, but makes me feel sorry for them.
Nilsa S. – I only used everyone once! 😉 HA HA! Now I AM DOING IT!!!
diane – Do you have any of the others?
Dave2 – I didn’t realize that until now!
martymankins – It’s the people who dosay it, inappropriately… wtf?
Gina (Mannyed) – They may have rolled as far as they’ll go!
CourtneyInControl – Hmmm, I bought a similar notepad for someone who has a birthday in May and lives in TX… 😉
javequeen14 – knockknock.biz! Click on “goods” then “pads.” Hmmm, I didn’t even mention the workplace… 😉
Hilly – That’s a good point – I should definitely make sure I don’t do that. I should make a checklist of all the qualities I complain about others having… to make sure they are not ones I have too!
sizzle – Hopefully you don’t know many…
Cat. – I wish I could leave early 😉 Everyday. I always fess up if something is my fault… like this huge lighting problem I am having… I made up the pink tiles 🙂 But yuck! I hope yours were not bright pink!
