I thought it would be fun to do a guestbook for those who come and visit my little corner of the world. It would be fun to hear from you, would you sign my guestbook? ~Shyloh~

Insulting comments




I have a list of insulting comments I've received in a period of two weeks...all from the same person! (Might I add, this is a 10 year old little boy...the word "tact" is not in his vocabulary.)

The first time he saw me wearing my glasses he wouldn't stop staring at me and finally he says, "Wow...Shyloh you should really consider investing in contact lenses."

I recently bleached my hair and got it cut, the first time he saw me after I did it, he says, "What on earth did you do to yourself?? How could you do that to yourself? Why did you do that to yourself?!" I told him I was ready for a change, to which he replied, "Well, if it was a change you wanted, you should have asked me first. I could have given you some advise."

The other day I was running late to work, so I didn't do my hair. I just brushed it and threw a hat on. He says, "You didn't do your hair today, did you?" I said no, and told him how my morning went. He says, "You should start getting up earlier. You really need to do your hair...that looks awful."

A few weeks ago, I was working. I took all the kids outside and we decided to play basketball. All the girls were on a team (Shelbie was with me, so she was the team captain of the girl team) and Bennet (the insulter!) and I were on the other team. We beat them 25-3 and we were big time gloating. Bennet says, "You know why we won, don't you? Because they are just girls. We can beat them at anything. Girls can't win at anything...blah, blah, blah." Finally I said, "Well, if girls can't win at anything, and I just won at something, then what am I?" He stares at me for several long seconds. And finally says, "Well, I mean...you are a girl...but you are different. You are kind of like a boy...but not really...you know what I mean?" He stumbled over his words for a few minutes before finally saying, "Umm...never mind."

Bennet is so funny! You might not believe it from reading the above quotes, but normally he is super, super, super polite! Kids are so funny, they say the funniest things!
