Soooo, proof that there is extraterrestrial life out there? Michael Phelps. Need I explain more?
But to the point of my post...
I have a short story about today. I went to traffic school (for 8 freakin hours...geeeez) for the ticket I got about 2 months ago, here is the conversation I had with the instructor:
Instructor: Say your name and why you got your ticket.
Me: Ashley. And I may have done a "california roll" through a stop sign.
Instructor: Did you try to cry to get let off of the ticket?
Me: Uh, no.
Instructor: Did you flirt with the cop?
Me: Ew. The cop was around 50 and that is just wrong.
Instructor (offended because he's in his fifties): Ohhhhh, is that too old for you?!? Well you're just a mean girl!
So for the duration of the class, everyone reveled in the splendor of calling me "mean girl." WHY is it that teachers love picking on me? I've gotten this all my life.
haha. Don't answer that, actually. I know I'm easy, even fun, to pick on. I've been told several times.
So yeah, maybe I can be part of the plastics now.
I always get a little intimidated when you leave a comment on my blog.
ReplyDeleteOne of my (former) coworkers totally had a thing for me, which was exacerbated when he was drunk (he'd get a little handsy). I'd constantly tell him he's too old for me and he's only in his mid 30s. He'd always pout about it.
ReplyDeleteI flirt with 50 year old cops to get out of tickets...
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't work. :( I'm not cute enough.
thomas--yeah, don't mess with me.
ReplyDeletecoley--ew with the hands! Yeah, 30 is pushing it for me! So 50 is WAY over the line. The instructor did not understand this. haha.
jidai--Maybe Ashley should become a cop. Then I think your flirting would work. :)
hey it's rach! i would be super offended if a traffic teacher asked me those questions! how sexist could he get!? HOW RUDE! You should write/call/email the school and tell them that it was uncalled for because seriously those are inappropriate questions/things to say about you. Lord.

ReplyDeleteNO. You are NOT one of the plastics. That old perv was just upset because he wanted you to flirt with him. Same with the rest of the men in class. Envious bastards.
ReplyDeleteDon't you just love being categorized? I HATE that.
Dude, seriously, what a dick that instructor was! I mean, wha, do all women cry and/or flirt to get out of tickets? Sure, I know it happens sometimes, but I always thought of it as a stereotype that's more often fiction than truth.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, what a stupid, dated line of questions.
What was the next question? "Why were you driving around in the first place, and where's my dinner, bitch?"
I find people that are easy to pick on are some of my favorites ... maybe because I love picking on people myself
ReplyDeleteguilty :P
