Who is with me on this?
This has happened a lot this year, so I decided to blog it and get some opinions. Does the following annoy the fuck out of anyone else besides me (and Grey, but everything annoys the fuck out of him.)?
Whenever I mention a quiz, or that I have one, or that I'm studying for one, what possesses people to say "You'll do fine?" This annoys me for several reasons:
1) You don't know that.
2) I didn't ask for your opinion. I don't need moral support.
3) Stop making light of my stress, damnit.
Whenever I take a quiz and don't do well, what possesses people to say "You'll do better on the next one?" This annoys me for two reasons:
1) I'm ALREADY ANNOYED.
2) YOU DON'T KNOW THAT.
Neither of those phrases have meaning whatsoever. They're just empty placation, and they annoy the fuck out of me. It's like all the stupid things people tell you when someone dies. Save me the flowery language and just tell me you understand what I'm feeling. I don't need to know my cat/family member/plants/quiz/brain is in a "better place."
Is anyone else with me? Do the two/three of you that keep doing this to me get it now?
