Opus 2020-025: Cruel Comments: On Being Tall

It happened again this week.  Some lady said, “My, but you are tall.”  I waited.  I waited.  That was it.  Finally I was prompted to ask, “What about the good looking part?”

I keep asking myself how come people stop half way.  It is so hard to say, “Tall and good looking”?  Here, repeated after me, “My but you are tall and good looking”.  That wasn’t so hard was it?

Remember that next time you see me.

  1. It's a bit different with me. When I go out in all of my 400 pound rotundness, people constantly comment about my little dachshund being the "fattest dog they've ever seen." I know what the lying cowards would LIKE to say, since my little dog is FAR from the fattest dog that I'VE ever seen, but they are lying cowards after all. - lol

    1. I know that when I was still working in middle school a threat to sit on someone would often change their attitude.
