You know there is-. You know there is one thi-. Will you SHUT UP back there! Sorry, some annoying child won’t let me speak. You know there is one thing I can’t stand. The interrupters.
Every day, they seem to track me down and stop me in between every phrase. Those annoying people who never let you speak. They always come up and randomly blurt out something off topic while I say some important stuff. They never give me a break! My gosh, I don’t know how I can stand it!
Have you ever just wanted to slap someone so hard that they pass out? Well I do just about every day since every day some random person comes up and stops my progression of speech. Haven’t they ever heard of politeness or patience? There is only one thing I have to say to these people. “The world doesn’t revolve around you, it revolves around the sun.”
I remember one time, I was telling my mom about something that had happened at school that was very important for her to hear. As I was getting to the most important part of my story, my dad started talking about something unimportant and random. I stopped out of my polite nature, and waited for him to stop his random rambling. Usually when I interrupt my dad without noticing, my mom would say, “Daddy was talking, hold on a minute.” Though, when he interrupted me, my mom said nothing and listened to what he had to say. When he stopped talking, I waited for a moment to make sure he was done, then I continued my story. A few more seconds into it, my dad interrupts me again! I had been through his frequent interruptions too many times, so I just grunted, said, “Forget it,” and stomped my way up stairs. Being interrupted can easily anger me.
I try my hardest to control my anger around these people but sometimes I just can’t. I explode into an outburst of red hot yelling, and they may not see the end of me. I don’t consider my actions rude, or polite, just my way of making a point. If you disagree, come see me, and we’ll talk about it.
So, if you ever feel like interrupting me, or even just to annoy me, don’t expect to have your head much longer. So, if you ever come across an interrupter, just give them a copy of this, and maybe they will get the hint.
