How To Win Friends & Influence People


I know I've pissed somebody off when I.....

1. Write “for sexual favors” in the memo line of my checks.
2. Specify that my drive-through order is "TO-GO."
3. Reply to everything someone says with "that's what you think."
4. Make beeping noises whenever a large person backs up.
5. Signal that a conversation is over by clamping my hands over my ears and grimacing.
6. Holler random numbers while someone is counting.
7. Staple pages together in the middle of the page.
8. Honk and wave to strangers.
9. Buy a large quantity of orange traffic cones and reroute whole streets.
10. Repeat the following conversation a dozen times.
"DO YOU HEAR THAT?"
"What?"
"Never mind, it's gone now."
11. Skip rather than walk as much as possible.
12. Try playing the William Tell Overture by tapping on the bottom of my chin. When nearly done, I announce "No, wait, I messed it up," and repeat.
13. Go to a poetry recital and ask why each poem doesn't rhyme.
14. Sing along at the opera.
15. Sit in my front yard pointing a hair dryer at passing cars to see if they slow down.

    I know I've pissed someone off when I stand at the side of the road pointing my blow dryer at on-coming traffic. When they slow down and find out I'm not a cop, they try to run me down with their cars. Luckily I can run VERY fast.

  9. I know I've pissed somebody off when I tell them exactly how fat those pants make them look. I mean come on did they use all of the polyester to make them? Aren't you worried that some circus is going to be ruined because they don't have a tent and no one needs a ticket to see the clowns? Do we blame you when skydives fall from the sky trailing only cords? Geez.

  13. I've actually done #8.
    Of course, out here in the middle of nowhere, if you honk and wave to strangers, they actually wave back.
    Kinda nice, in an odd sort of way.

    Here's one you could try:
    Sit in a bathroom stall for three hours, periodically mumbling "I'm so glad I brought that potato masher with me."
