Overheard just now in a coffee shop...

Two 30s-40s aged women discussing watching DVDs...

"You can listen to a different language sometimes, but I don't know how it translates it... it's so weird."

"But how does it *know*?"

"I don't know. Oh, and then its' *really annoying* when it gets stuck on something like French because that's what the last person who rented it put it on. I hate that."

...

Peoples is ignurnt.

It just got better yet... apparently she kicked her husband out of the house to a Marriott, because he wouldn't walk the dogs (who are, by all accounts, her babies) *every* morning, as opposed to them sharing the duties. Her reasoning? "I have to put on my makeup before leaving the house! What does he have to do, throw on shoes?"

I'd say he's well shut of her. And it's particularly amusing that now she's going to have to walk the fucking dogs *every* morning, as opposed to them sharing the duties.

Yeah, not the brightest bulb in the bunch, but that was pretty obvious as soon as she opened her VERY LOUD MOUTH.

If I were him, I'd just stay at the hotel, while I got the divorce papers together.

Then again, where we are, it's probably economically better for him to just buy lots of liquor, hookers, and maybe a therapist.

That's why I don't live in Bellevue, or Mountlake, or (gods help me) on Mercer Island, but someplace where most folks have to work for a living. They may not understand *me*, but at least they don't think the world revolves around them. And who's going to understand me *anywhere* I go? :)

Not that there aren't drawbacks, as M. just pointed out over my shoulder--she and the boy were on the bus this side one day, having to listen to a couple of guys discuss the successful weight loss of one's wife. Seems she'd lost two hundred pounds. "Wow," said the husband's friend. "That's a whole 'nother woman."

Obviously, stupidity is endemic.
