Hypocrites-R-Us


Dear Powers that be in the Universe:

You know how for the last five years I’ve been yelling up a STORM at the moms and dads that INSIST on dropping off their middle schoolers in the NO DROP OFF ZONE at the entrance to the middle school - that is located RIGHT NEXT to my school?? Remember that?


And you know how I ALMOST slam RIGHT INTO some of those cars on that blind turn every morning even though I KNOW they will be there? Well…um,...guess what I was doing this morning?


Yeah. Dropping off MY middle schooler. On that same blind corner.



Don’t worry. I yelled at myself.

As long as you didn't honk at your self, shoot the finger at you self, or spill your coffee, no harm no foul.

I find it much harder to believe that Golden Boy is in Middle School than that you are a normal, typical parent in a hurry to get to work!

Sparkless said...

Ohhh you just lost your right to yell at all those other parents who drop their middle schooler off on the blind curve.

Well, at least you yelled at yourself and I am sure you now have compassion for those other moms dropping off kids.

Brian Miller said...

who is that crazy lady yelling at herself in the car? i dunno son, hurry up and get out before they catch us in the no drop off zone...lol.

Ann Imig said...

Okay, but that's because there is NO PLACE to drop off a kid around the school for cry-ay-ay!

Oh and the tick tocks killed me. If that isn't street slang for prostitute, it should be. LOL

As long as everyone else's doing it, then why not?

Sprite's Keeper said...

Oh come on Vodkamom, you do it once you may do it again...and if you don't you can regain your right to yell or atleast GLARE at those who dare to break the sacred drop off rule!

Hypocrisy is FUN!!

Beth said...

Reminds me that I used to make my step-dad drop me off a block before the school. I was so cool.

Mike said...

You should be spanked! Hmmm!

Maureen@IslandRoar said...

Liz Mays said...

I've done that myself under cover of a low brimmed hat, a bathrobe, and my husband's car.

Karen Harrington said...

Just stopping by to say hello. Because that's how I roll.

Christine said...

Come on. Yelling at yourself doesn't quite cut it does it? I suggest writing 100 times "I will not behave like other idiot parents" should do it. Oh,,and in blood.

Char said...

Vodka Mom said...

That Edna. She always makes me laugh.

Unknown said...

Yep, Stacey's right, you've come full circle!

mommakin said...

We're all hypocritical about something. I'm pretty sure this makes you human.

IB said...

I think the rules should change to accommodate me and my needs. Always have. That's just how I roll.

Did you slap you on the wrists as well?

But it will never happen again right? Haha. Hey, we're all capable of these things...

KaLynn ("MiMi") said...

LOL!! I did almost the same thing yesterday! I was yelling at stupid people that make the Right Turn on Red After Stopping, because it never fails, they pull out in front of me. Soooo what did I do? I did and upped it one! I did a Right on Red WITH A SIGN POSTED: NO RIGHT TURN ON RED! There was no one coming but still......I had to laugh about the moron in the Chevy..
BTW-You have an award at my place! Love your pages.

LOL - oh well - at least you are woman enough to admit when you were wrong! HA! :o)

Janie Woods said...

LMAO!! I did the exact same thing!! Of course, I flipped myself off in the mirror, honked my horn, did they two-hands-in-the-air shoulder shrug, yelled, "What the f*ck are you doing??" at myself--but that one was embarassing because I rolled the window down to do it....

Keyona said...

I'm sure you just wanted to see what the fuss was all about. :o)

Sharon Rose said...

He had a cat. Fortnite for Xbox One will get keyboard and mouse support soon. Announced at X018, Microsoft stated that the feature would be available for the popular battle royale shooter from November 14. And if you were worried about keyboard and mouse Fortnite players having an advantage, Epic Games will match keyboard and mouse Fortnite players with those using the same input method to keep matches fair.
