Stupid Friends

I have a few. They aren't stupid (some of them), just tactless.

With one friend, she was criticizing my college job since I get paid to sit around until computer problems arise. The topic was on work skills:

Me: There's no way you can ever do my job.
Her: But if I had the knowledge, I could.
Me: Well, of course! But there are some jobs people may never be able to pick up.
:::
Her: What about a secretary? That's a mindless job that anyone can do.
Me: :Q [The secretary was less than 2 yards away and she can definitely hear.] Um... no. Secretary jobs can be stressful. I might not be able to do it.
Her: Oh, c'mon! Answering phones, big deal!

On another occasion, she attempts to sound intellectual.

Her: Religion is so important in other countries, it's connected with the government. Their leaders are prime ministers.
Me: [I think about it for a while...] Um.... prime ministers aren't actually church ministers.
Her: [Trying to save face...] Oh? I know. I'm just saying.


With another friend, he comments on "Lost In Translation":

Him: Those Japanese people are weirdos.
Me: :Q Ahem! [Gesture toward the Japanese intern.]
Him: Oh sh!t.

One of my friends took me to see the last Knicks vs. Jordan's Bull game.

We had pretty good tickets and when I met up with him, he ran up to me and said hey some guy offered to buy my tickets for $300 and gave me seats that weren't as good. When I looked at the tix I noticed they were fake. When I told him that, he said "sh!t!" and ran off. He later came by again and said I bought some good seats from some kid using the $300 the guy gave me. I looked at them again and agin they were fake.

Needless to say he was/is a dumb@ss and we ended up watching the game from a bar across the street.
