Jace:
Forgot that Jess's work's xmas party was saturday and let it slip that I have to work the morning shift instead of evening. Now I have to go with her but I just do not want to and she won't take no for an answer. I only mentioned it so that we could go see the Hobbit on saturday.
I fucking hate the holidays.
Patrick:
Jace, thanks for the suggestions, but having taken a couple days to sleep on it, I'm seriously done trying to work it out with my manager. She's a bully, and all she's gotten for it in the past has been a slap on the wrist. If they can't handle a bully, they don't get me, simple as that. I'm a sensitive and impatient guy, I don't have the heart or the time for this shit.
Jace:
Current plans wrt holiday parties:
Jess's work party: ask if the little person that works there is hoarding gold and if he is related to Gimli. Casually mention that it is obvious he can't be a hobbit because he is wearing shoes. If that doesn't make people not like me, try harder. Alternate plan: Don't actually talk. Alternate alternate plan: When introduced to people let them know everything is bullshit. Literally just say "This is all bullshit" or "I have better things to do" while shaking their hand.
Jess's family's xmas eve party: Ask Jess if she wants to spend the night Tuesday over to Wednesday, when people start to give me that "you can't mention that" look, just go on a rant about how is it really that big of a deal that we've fucked. Alternative plan: when people are like "good to see you again" reply with "I'm only here for the food" when they laugh it off as a joke reply with "no really, I can't stand you fuckers."
Both plans should result in me never being invited again.
Carl-E:
Definitely, for the work party.
For the family one, you're assuming there will be no weapons drawn...
Jace:
We'd be in close enough quarters that I wouldn't get shot if any of them wanted to pull a gun. Its one of the few things I retained strongly from my time doing Kung Fu. If someone is less than 2 arms lengths from you with a gun, you can make sure you don't get shot pretty easily.
I'm just taking the attitude that if I'm being forced to attend these parties I'll do it on my terms.
