But rude people... I've been around plenty of rude people. I live near D.C. Ha.

Well, when I was hanging out with my much calmer best friend, Kat, over Labor Day weekend, we were walking down the street of Old Town Alexandria and she brought up the possibility of going to the movies and I started skipping and singing excitedly... We were surrounded by people, because everyone apparently goes down there for Labor Day. There were glares thrown. But I deflected them.
And, let's see. Rudeness... I hardly ever remember cos I try to forget. One of my fellow volunteers was rude to me two weeks ago at the Holocaust Museum. She told me to "just shut up and let the elevator doors close, because I've worked here for ten years and I know more than you". I smiled and said "okay", then went back to working the way I was taught! She kept giving me mean looks. I think she doesn't like me because I'm cheerful. ???

She might've just been having a bad day. A bad day that's lasted all the time I've known her? :/
Well, we do a little spiel as people get in the elevator, about the rules of the museum. No photography or cell phones, where the restrooms are, etc. It takes roughly two minutes. And she thought I was taking too long, even though I was saying what I was supposed to say, and much more rapidly than certain other volunteers... I think she picks on me because I'm young. I curse my youth every day. But cheerfulness is promoted there, cos it's a heavy subject and we're supposed to counteract it. Except for Grumpy Pants.
Is this a venting discussion? XD

. . . and so are a lot of young people too ~ ~ just an old fart retaliating for a disparaging elder comment made by Kevin / Allidillo (an otherwise apparently polite young man)

um, I'd rather not talk about it. Let's just say, the hobo birthed a skunk.
