Up, Down and All Around

Ticked Off

I was so absolutely, royally ticked off today.

I met with a new acquaintance and offered him something that I was under no obligation whatsoever to offer (sorry to be vague, but that's the best I can do for now).

Instead of recognizing that I'm being generous, he turns the discussion into a negotiation and starts demanding more things. He says the additional things that he's asking for are mandatory before he will accept my offer.

Diyos ko! Natameme ako!

Here I am handing the guy a silver platter, which he does not even have to work for, and he responds by saying he'll accept what I'm giving only if I throw in more stuff, and that I should agree because he's entitled to it?!

Grabe, ang kapal ng mukha mo!

If that's the way you want to look at the situation, then by golly, you can forget we even had a discussion. Don't do me any favors by accepting!

What an #$*&^#$!

"Give someone an inch and they'll take a mile" -- Boy, that old saying suddenly took on new meaning today.
