Living at the university, we have public laundry rooms. Not a big deal, I'm used to it, I've been doing laundry in communal rooms for YEARS (since highschool). I set the timer as soon as I re-enter the apartment because I don't like to be late. And I don't want to be rude or to have someone who needs the dryer taking my clothes out.
Tonight, I knew that the laundry was busy and so I was truly extra-attentive about being on time. I was no more than 5 minutes late- really, about 2 minutes late, and when I arrived I found that someone had impatiently (and rudely) taken my clothes out of the dryer. While the clothes were still hot. My neighbor (I don't know who) couldn't give me not even 10 minutes of grace to empty the dryer. It made my blood boil.
I cursed in Spanish as I carried my clothes back to the apartment (just a few feet away), noticed that my neighbor's door was open (I had heard the neighbor slam the door shut JUST as I opened mine to go to the laundry room), and as soon as I entered the apartment and shut my door, I exploded.
Conchatumadre, que wea pasa contigo, que suerte que no estabas porque yo podria patear la raja y si tocas a mi ropa de nuevo te juro que voy a patear la raja hasta Nueva York, tocando mi ropa- falta de respeto! Retrasado Mental, tarada weona que bueno que no me entiendes porque estoy tan enojada y offendida, por la chucha que huea. conchatumadre retardona y si te miro te voy a dar una mirada fatal... (etc...)
I was not very polite. Dennis said I should retaliate instead of yelling and angrily folding clothes, by taking their clothes out. I'm not a "retaliate" kind of girl. It's just really annoying because I pretty much go out of my way to be patient to other residents, giving them up to an hour sometimes to come and get their clothes. I did feel like it was disrespectful.
But I am passive aggressive. I emailed the Residential Advisor to complain. I yelled REALLY LOUD in spanish (SIII ESTOY HABLANDO SOBRE TI EN ESPANOL, TARADA!!! ESPERO QUE ME ESCUCHES Y SIENTES SUPERMAL COMO SIENTO YO!)And I'm writing an angry blog. It's the most therapeutic and yet passive aggressive thing that I could offer. It's been like 3 hours and I'm still very annoyed.
