The Fattypants Papers

Fattypants writes about things that have actually happened to her...sometimes. Other times she writes about things that could have happened, but instead she made them up while going about her perfectly ordinary business. The 'Pants also reviews things like books, movies, foofie bath products, and anything else that strikes her fancy.

Dear CINTAS Truck Driver,

Well, excuse me, but I am in the habit of going slowly and checking my rearview mirror for pedestrians when I back out of a parking space. So when the car that zipped out of its parking spot almost hit me this morning, I felt I was perfectly justified in saying "Woah," and sort of waving my arms at the driver. Your scolding me that I needed to look where I was going was totally unjustified--especially since that car was still in its parking spot when I stepped off the curb. In fact, you were so out of line that I didn't even realize you were directing your statement at me until I was inside Starbucks. I would totally have told you all this to your face, but you weren't in your truck anymore when I came out.

Unless you're going to yell at the person who actually did something wrong, why don't you mind your own business? Ass!

Love,
A person who thinks a commercial driver should be more familiar with the "yield to pedestrians" rule.
