Your Boredom Doesn’t Bother Me
Recently I was at a poker table in Las Vegas. A young woman plopped down at the table around 1am and started shuffling and flipping her chips to alert the rest of the people at the table that she was a no one to fool with. She played two hands; one of which my boyfriend took down and razzed her about. After that she took her drink and announced her departure by snapping she was bored as hell. As if we care!
I wonder what is going through people’s heads when they are making comments such as this. Do they hope that the individuals being spoken about will beg for another chance? Perhaps grovel at their feet and promise to be more interesting?
I think it is more likely that Madam Snarky is the one who is boring and needn’t inflict the rest of us with her disdain.
Oh snap.
