I know, it’s a long title, but it’s so true. Has anyone noticed those droids in grocery stores, Target, perhaps the mall, who yack so incessantly on their “smart phones” that they have totally convinced themselves they are the only people in the building? And does this type of behavior get on your nerves? These idiots, have totally lost their peripheral vision and hearing. Ever try to steer your loaded grocery cart around them using a polite, “Excuse me?” Well, I’m here to tell you that it doesn’t work!

Some of them hang around the processed meat section for-ev-er, trying to decide which package has the very most sodium. Others stand over the produce pawing through the goods until it’s time for the store to close. Or they hover over the free kid cookies, talking to their little hearts’ content, while Mommies In Orbit is patiently waiting her turn, ready to blow a gasket!

They are oblivious to the outside world, and that would include you, me, and my bickering, nagging kids, who only want over-priced cereal and gummy worms for dinner. I think the grocery stores have the most idiots per square foot.

What can we do about it, if anything at all? Perhaps give them a nice “tap, tap” on the rear-end to let them know that traffic is out of control behind them. How about using an “anti-cell phone interruption device” to completely blow their connection? What about sending the wranglers ahead of me in the store to aggravate the hell of them?

“Get off the freakin’ phone!”

I’m not particularly interested in overhearing about someones freakin’ dinner party last night and what was served. I’m just trying to grab some grub for dinner and beat the school bus home. I know, right, you can almost hear me hyperventilating while I write this.

I guess this is gonna call for this middle-aged Mommy bad ass go forth in the world and enforce some polite social rules amongst those rude heathen individuals.

“Let there be light, where the sun doesn’t shine!”
