Random Rants :-D

I don't think I've ever ranted on a post... well, or at least not ONLY ranted on a post, but there's always a first time :-) Feel free to post yours under the comments!!!

In no particular order:

* I just don't like people that think they're all that, regardless if it's because of how smart they are, how much money they have/make or their looks... Come on, there's people that are smarter than you are, have more money than you do and are better looking that you and DON'T have that attitude!!!

* OK, let me preface this by saying that I've loved living in the US for the last 3 years and a half (wow... time flies), BUT if there's something that I don't particularly enjoy about American "culture" is the "necessity" to compliment EVERYTHING... And this is what I mean by it: if somebody posts a picture of their ultrasound on Facebook, don't say the baby looks "beautiful", that's just NOT true, you can (at the most) see a silhouette, and you can always say something nice without saying what is basically a lie (I'm not trying to be a biatch...I just am LOL); OR, if somebody posts a picture of their newly purchased house, you also don't have to say it's "gorgeous" when it's obvious that the house is fugly, you can still say "Congratulations on your purchase", "How exciting", "So happy for you", etc., but why does it always come down to beauty (particularly if it's not true!!!)???

* I also REALLY dislike people that take advantage of others, specially if they know better than that and are being trusted because of who they are, i.e. lawyers that charge more than they should; insurance brokers that recommend insurance types that you don't really need or are not appropriate for you, but will give them bigger commisions; or you know (and this is a classic), the mechanics who says something is wrong with your car without being true, just to get more money out of you...

Whew... Well, I can't say I feel much better for saying this, but at least I got it off my chest :-S

PS Oh yeah... And I HATE mini-vans LOL Just thought I needed to add that :-D

Creo que nunca he posteado una entrada al blog de quejas... bueno, por lo menos no una entrada de PURAS quejas, pero siempre hay una primera vez para todo :-) Posteen sus propias quejas en los comentarios!!!

En ningun orden en particular:

* Simplemente no me caen bien las personas que se creen mucho, ya sea por inteligentes, porque estan muy guapas o porque tienen mucho dinero... No manches, hay gente que es mas inteligente que tu, esta mas bonita/guapo o tiene mas dinero que tu y no se cree tanto!!!

* OK, voy a aclarar primeramente que me ha gustado vivir en los EU durante los ultimos 3 anios y medio (chin, como pasa el tiempo), PERO una de las unicas cosas que me molesta de la cultura americana es la "necesidad" que tienen de hacerle cumplidos a TODO el mundo... Por ejemplo: si alguien publica una foto de su ultrasonido en Facebook, no tienen porque decir que el bebe esta "hermoso", porque no es verdad, a penas y se ve a silueta (a lo mas), claro que puedes decir algo agradable, pero sin caer en algo que es practicamente una mentira (no estoy tratando de ser ojete... asi soy jajaja); o si alguien acaba de comprar una casa super fea, tampoco tiene uno por que andar diciendo que la casa esta "preciosa", uno puede decir "Felicidades por la compra", "Que emocionante", "Estoy muy contenta por ustedes", etc. pero por que siempre tiene que ser cuestion de belleza (especialmente si no es verdad!!!)???

* Por ultimo, tambien me caen SUPER mal las personas que se aprovechan de otros especialmente cuando ellos tienen la ventaja de saber mas que uno, y uno esta confiando en ellos, por ejemplo, los abogados que te cobran de mas; los vendedores de seguros que te venden uno que no necesitas o que no es apropiado para ti simplemente porque esos les dan mas comision a ellos; o el clasico mecanico que te dice que tu carro necesita una reparacion y no es verdad, nada mas para cobrarte mas...

Fiu... Bueno, no me siento mucho mejor despues de haber escrito esto, pero por lo menos ya me lo saque :-S

PD Ah si, y ODIO las mini vans jajaja... Pense que TENIA que decirlo :-D
