I have to say something or I'll burst.
Our pool has been shut down for the week - all the lifeguards are sick and there's just not enough healthy staff to guard the pool. So swim team practice has been moved to a neighboring pool. Syncro practice has also been moved, but to a different pool than swim practice...so we're bouncing around - but the good news is - there are no extra classes, so we're FINISHED at 10 instead of noon!
This leaves me with two extra hours of day. And I feel like I need to blog about a particular topic that's been on my mind.
One of the lifeguards - I shall keep the identity in my head - in case anyone who knows this pool/guard reads it and I don't embarrass him. oops, now you know it's a boy.
Anyway - I was talking to him today - and he had TWO - yes TWO large VERY large white zits on his forehead. I was afraid to stand in front of him while he was talking to me for fear of them blowing up and splattering on my face.
So I stood to the side as he explained his theory on the whats and hows of this whole pool virus thing.
I couldn't stop staring at them. They were smiling at me and giving me the "nanny nanny booboo" treatment. I really just wanted to reach up there and - (okay - I'm coming out of the closet on this one) - but I needed to pop them. Both of them.
He had to notice that I didn't make eye contact with him. I was totally staring at "Moe" and "Shep" two of the stooges that danced around on his forehead threatening to spray buckets of puss out at any moment.
I can't get it out of my mind. Now - I have a question relating to today's blog. Do you tell someone they have a ginormous talking zit on their face (the equivalent of spinach in the teeth) or do you just do your best and try to ignore it? Is it rude to point out something of that nature? And if so, where do you draw the line? A lady has her skirt tucked up into her panties - tell her or no? let her figure it out? Food stuck in the teeth? I just need to know - is it just me. I can't get those brother zits out of my mind. Which is really doing wonders for my afternoon snack appetite.

That made me puke in my mouth a little bit.
Ok, not really but EW!
Something in the teeth, maybe.
The dress in the underwear, yes.
The zits...I don't know.
Poor kid.
Maybe his mommy taught him not to pop his zits...
Bwaahaa, I'm surprised you didn't take a pitcture for us!!!! hee hee.
Ewwww. Every time I get the munchies I'm going to come read your blog. Between pukes and trots and pus-busting zits and babies with horrid green snot gushing from their noses, my appetite might never come back. Not that it's a bad thing.
I would tell someone about spinach in their teeth. I would *definitely* tell someone about their skirt in their undies. I would not say anything about a zit that needed popping, even if it was about to erupt. But I might stand off to the side like you, lol!
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! I wish I could have seen the look on your face. Yes to skirt in the panties and food in the teeth, but no to the volcanic eruptions on someones face, unless it's me of course and then definitely say something.
the dress in the underwear, yes. The zits, no. Gosh no. Heaven sakes no. Ick ick ick ick ick.
pretty much same as above - unless it was you - then I'd tell you. And unless it was me - then PLEASE tell me. LOL! (basically, I'd have to KNOW them well enough to know if they'd take it well or heck, actually popped their zits! Some people don't! It's bad for the skin you know!) But I totally had a visual of dancing zits taunting you and was LOL'ing at that!!!!
I tell my spouse about his nasty zits and force him to pop them or I will... but an acquaintence, no. food on face and in teeth, tag hanging out or skirt in panties all yes.
and please tell your cashier if she has mustard on her nose. When I worked at Sam's I went 3 HOURS and no one told me!
Just because I know who you are talking about makes me laugh even harder....I don't think I would tell him, maybe he knows it's not good to pop them, or maybe he was hoping that whatever is in the pool making everyone sick will eat his little zits goodbye!!!
most people dont go around popping strangers zits unless your dad, unfortunately you have a little of dad in you still to make you actually question if you should tell him! except one time I was massaging someone (back when i used to massage) and they had a big white head, and you guessed it, I couldn't resist (genetic flaw) and I pushed past it as if I was massaging and it squirted everywhere!
NO to the zits. When someone tells me I have a zit (like my husband), I say no sh*t sherlock. I don't love to pop zits on myself in fear they will scar or get infected or bleed heavily. It they are horrible I do, otherwise I cover them with makeup. Yes to the teeth and skirt in the skivies.
Eww Eww Eww Eww...
BWAHAHAHA!!! That's for the laugh! I just woke up the hubby!
