Fancy dress parties are shit

It's not fun, it's a hassle. Not only do I have to waste time finding something to wear for your theme but then I get to spend one of the few nights I get to relax walking around in awkward clothing that was only amusing or interesting for the first five minutes of the evening.

People lose all sense of Spatial awareness in the museums

People turning around and walking straight into you. People not looking where they are going and bumping into other people. Walkways being blocked by people just aimlessly standing there, staring into space. Toes being stepped on.

Saying 'morning' to someone you're passing at the exact same time they say it to you

Then having an entire existential crisis about whether they heard you, whether you should say it again and risk looking like a fool, or not say it again and seem rude.

I went out to get milk...

I get to aldi, walk through the first automatic door and there is a lady standing in front of the second automatic door literally watching me walk towards her/the door...

Completely gormless, stuck in headlights look...

She just turns around and just stares into the shop...

"Excuse me please"

Nothing

"Excuse me please"

Nothing

"Excuse me, PLEASE"

She turns around to face me with the same dumbfounded look and still doesn't move...

"Please excuse me"

She shuffles like an inch to the side, still completely in the way, I squeeze past cos I'm done saying excuse me...

I turn around to see if she's still there, she is, still with that vacant look on her face as more people are trying to get past her...

Ffs

I go to get milk and its like a fucking obstacle course of people just wandering aimlessly into everything and everyone and no one seems to know how to look forward...

Get to the self checkouts and everyone is just staring at the screens like they've never seen one before and are taking forever gently pressing the screen like they are made of hot coal or something...

FFS I only needed milk and it took like 10 minutes
