Cattiness

[Kevin Hamilton]

absolutely cracks me up. Just thought of this lil anecdote and I hadda share. So I'm about to head home this afternoon after depositing the pittance I call a paycheck these days, when I decide to stop into Taco Villa for some delicious quarter pound meat n bean burritos. I order three of the grease filled, yet awesome gut bombs and take a seat waiting for my order to be fulfilled. While I'm sitting there a chick comes in and orders something as well, and apparently she knows one of the girls working there cuz they start a conversation about their respective children.
Well the girls talk a good five/ ten minutes, all cheery and stuff, talking bout life, etc etc. It just so happens they get the girls order finished before mine, they cash her out and she leaves, but not before both girls gushingly say how good it was to see the other, tell so and so I said hi and that whole song and dance. It's at this point my burritos are finished and I'm paying out. The two girls say their goodbyes and I saunter up to the counter to pay. And literally no sooner does the other girls car door close as she's leaving than the counter chick tells whoever's within earshot " I can't stand her! She thinks she's blah blah blah, well she's not blah blah blah." Harvey Dent woulda been proud of the duality. I stifled a laugh, paid for my tasty burritos and split.

Cracked me up though.

I've seen that happen .... always amusing.

I've seen it happen at school, work, etc. Like a pack of wild pirannah's. ..But it's not like guy's don't do it too. Except when guy's do it, there are more high fives and the word "bro" flows like water.

..Just kiddin. =D

..Is it called doggyness when guys do it?

almost makes you paranoid as to what they REALLY think of their BF's/husbands. But I'm pretty sure it's just a special thing between girls

I guess its just easier some times to pretend you like someone rather than to get into a fight and break up a friendship. Especially if you are sharing friends. That just makes everything awkward. But I had a friend once I couldn't stand, and when she went back to Belgium I finally told her over e-mails (she would email all her friends back in America about how great she was) that she was a stuck up asshole and I never wanted to talk to her again. And I'm very glad I did, because I haven't had to talk to again since.

I don't think guys do that. They just punch each other and then go have a beer.

I find cattiness amazingly entertaining. "Oooooh, here comes So & So. I hate her. She's such a phony pain in the... HIIII! HOW ARE YOU?"
