Let 'er rip, kids!
Feb. 6th, 2008 06:25 pmSo the fabulous
surlywench, one of the Doomiest MayFaire Moon Minions of Doom EVAR, posted her list of pet peeves concerning faire. I particularly loved this one, of course:
5. don't tell me the corsets I sell are any of the following:
a) overpriced
b) easily made at home for much less
c) not period
i will melt your face off, k thnks.
When confronted with this utter crap IN MY OWN BOOTH, I'm very polite.
"Oh, I could make this for about $40!"
"Yes, but how much do you charge for your time and expertise?"
"Oh...uh...well, I don't do this as a business."
"I do. Thank you. Enjoy the faire."
So. What would YOU say? Especially what would you say if you knew you'd never get in trouble for it. I mean, what have you aaaaaaalways wanted to really say to these people?

I am not a gawd damn babysitter. Please curb your kids or put them on a damn leash or something. PAY ATTENTION. I am a stranger. Do not hand me your 3 year old snotty kid with a urine soaked diaper and a pacifier in her mouth and walk away to get a beer. The sign says face painting, not DAY CARE!
oh and....
you stupid bastard...Im no more from Russia(or insert other location depending on theme of the show and costume.) than Mickey Mouse is a real giant talking mouse who wears clothes when you go to Disney Land. ITS A THEME PARK!! Go drink another fucking chewy beer and leave me alone!
