Erin The Great

First I’ll start out by saying, “Welcome to my blog”. Although I’ve only been on this planet for 24 very short years, I feel (like everyone else on the planet) that I have a plethora of knowledge to share with you folks.

In my own little way, it’s like I’m nailing my own ‘95 thesis to the doors of the church so listen up.

The Holiday Shopper. There are many kinds of holiday shoppers but the only ones who survive the mass display of chaos are the ‘crusty holiday shoppers’. The crusty holiday shopper is the one who elbows you in the ribs when you go after the last ‘Harry Potter’ calendar, or the one who all but has a rifle strapped to their belt if you try to get the last ipod of the shelf.

These people go under my ’super special’ list. People like this are unbelievably nice under normal circumstances but turn into absolute beasts when put in a shopping situation as well as put in the presence of actual human beings. Grab your torch and pitchforks! These people need to go down. Everyone gets into bad moods when shopping for endless hours on end but here’s a little advice, I don’t care how good the sales are, if you know going shopping is going to turn you into Mr. Hyde, then for the love of Pete, stay the freak home! Do a little online shopping if your very existence in ‘retail land’ makes others want to put a gun to their head. Be a nice human being. Be the kind of person that makes the sound of the holidays not have people develop a twitch. I know it’s a stretch but try to be a decent human being. Be considerate, responsible and nice, this will makes others not want to follow you to your car and slash your tires.
