Well another week is drawing down already. I will admit that time is flying by, I thought it might slow down but it hasn't so far. Today I have lunch with some canasta gals and then the games.
Oh, let me tell you what happened on Tuesday in the card room! I almost forgot! We have these two twins (they also live in my building but not in the same apartment as each other), anyway, they are obnoxious as hell and nobody likes them. When snacks are brought into the card room they are the first to run over and they fill up cups with them and stick them in their purse, that kind of obnoxious. And they're over 70 so they are certainly old enough to know better.
Anyway back to Tuesday, they have this obsession with smoke (in the condo too but that's another story), so they get up from their game and close the doors. We were at the table closest to the doors. They announced that "secret smokers" were outside the doors and smoke was "wafting" into the card room. We looked outside and there wasn't a soul out there. Then every time someone came or went the doors banged and they close hard, they are fire doors. So one of our gals got up and propped the doors open again. (Oh, I forgot to say they are interior doors and it's a non smoking club.)
They jumped up and announced that the doors would remain closed and we had no right to open them. One of our gals went over to their table and said in a calm voice that there was no need to have a problem over this, it could be worked out and the twins put their hands over their ears and announced "I can't hear you" like two year olds. What a pair they are! One is married to an attorney and the other to a dentist. And they steal the snacks.
Oh, another thing, we used to have cloth hand towels in the ladies room to dry your hands and then toss into a hamper to be laundered, they were always rolled up nicely. Well they started disappearing and we all think that's who was taking them. Now we have paper towels. Buggers to them.
At least they are good for a laugh. You know if it was one I'd think maybe she had some mental problem and try to be nice and overlook her actions but it's two of them that do the same thing.
Oh, another thing. Last year only one of them joined the club and they'd both use it but at different times. They got away with it too. I can tell them apart so I knew though. That takes cheapskate to a whole other level.
So that's it from paradise today. Hope your day is tits y'all. Mine too...
32 notes:
Methinks they might have a mild form of dementia and being twins it's likely that both are. Genetically they are identical. Take care and have a nice day...ciao
I always imagined it would be fun to be a twin. These two don't know the meaning of the word fun. What a waste of something so special ;-).
wow, they must be identical if they could get away with one membership..
I agree with Rositta, they may indeed have a form of dementia.
Maybe they grew up poor? My former husband's uncle died and left his wife plenty to live comfortably, not rich, but comfortable.
She became a hoarder of sorts - and would eat weird things like canned tuna out of the can, but she could've eaten well. She grew up dirt poor on a scrap farm during the depression, you know, the "big" one.
At least they provide some entertainment for you, even if they're exasperating as all heck! It's funny to think of them with their hands over their ears!
Buongiorno!!!
Poor twins, both ladies have no heavier problem, so they image smoke is a great problem...but strange they are...a lot!!!
Have a great canasta and lunch Thursday!!!
Big hugs!
I love the twins story.
um ... wut'z da problum wid eetin tuna owta da can, gracie? dat'z like a delicasee fer me.
i wuz laffin an laffin wen u told us abowt da twinz puttin dere handz over dere eerz. wutta site!
oh well ...
luv--yjh
Maybe the doc dropped both the twofer twins on their heads ?
I don't think I'd use cloth towels in a public bathroom, even in your member's only clubhouse. Because you never know who may have touched it or what germs may be on it. Ack. I take hand sanitizer everywhere so I never need to use public sinks anymore, and no need for any towels or blower thingys either.
I rather like observing idiosyncrasies... not up close and personal you understand, but to observe from a comfortable distance. As long as I don't have to live with them. :)
Have a lovely day! Big hugs xoxo
They shared the same egg, so they probably are aging the same--sounds like dementia, but could be--they are just weird!
oh Auntie Bee, those twins are really something! Miles and I are like twins, we look alike but I am nice and he is, well, fat. bwahahaha. - purrrrrssss - your Sammie Pie
xoxoxoxoxoxoxo
Auntie Beez

Sending you our furry hugs
Abby

Auntie Bee, those ladies are just pfffts!
Me is finking of you eberyday, even though mommy wont hep us bisit as much. Her reads me all of your posts this morning and they makes me sad.
Me purrs fur your comfurts.
Love, TK
Who needs to go to the movies with all the entertainment you have at the condo?!
Have some fun today. Big hugs, honey...
Those two sound like quite the pair, interesting that they both inherited the same sort of idiosyncrasies as the other - either that or they just share nicely!
Shame on them for stealing the snacks and for acting like two-year olds! Can you imagine what they must have been like when they WERE two-year olds?? Eek!
Hope your Thursday is as lovely as possible down there in Paradise.
I'd have fun with these two. Just saying. Probably forgot to take their medication.
Have a terrific day honey. Big hugs. :)
They definitely seem like a case of 'much wants more'! How annoying. :(
Seriously? Oh my, there's some book material there!
Perhaps a tray of Exlax would derail their habit of grabbing all the goodies.
Sadly, I have no twin for purposes of economizing -- but I'm grateful to her I won't be old enough to know better until I hit 70!
Oh what a nuisance! Those twins sound dreadful! Grrr!
Somehow somebody needs to publicly shame them/stop them from stealing snacks, stealing towels and being dirsuptive to the overall peace with the door/smoke nonsense.
Knitty's remark made me laugh. Some people have no manners and don't care and those twins need a comeuppance.
Can't they be reported and kicked out of the club. Seriously, who needs to deal with that kind of trash. They need a good butt kicking. ;)
Twins can be fun, but not when they are disruptive and rude. I went to school(eons ago) with two boys. One did not go to English and one did not go to math for months, till the teachers caught on!
What a couple of cheapos! At least you can laugh at them :)
Hugs from Ohio,
I.
I love the story of the twins. They are characters! (((hugs)))
Oh good grief. I'd have to take a dump on their cards. Seriously...
And if they are married to an attorney and a dentist, then those twins are wack jobs.
Love the pictures of the fruit cups and cake below.
Luf, Us and Maw
Great story today Miss Bee, sounds like you would always have stories to tell on the blog with those two being around.
Glad you are staying busy.
Love and hugs,
Bobbi
My sister, Lana, and I are identical twins, and we never act like that! At least, I don't think so. We turned 69 this past week, live across the street from each other ,and have a ball. We really feel sorry for those of you that don't have a twin.
Lovin your stories, Miss Bee!
hahaha! i loved this post. made me smile. can you take a picture of the twins? are they identical?
who steals snacks? seriously. geez.
My laughter turned to howling at "And they're over 70 so they are certainly old enough to know better." I loved this, read it to Bet and she howled as well, especially at the ear covering, double over laughter, upon regaining some composure, she stated she would love to meet these gals. So we have a request, secret video please!!!! Very much pretty please!!!
All I can say about the twins is they deserve each other. Reminds me of a commercial that was on last year, 2 skinny identical twins, don't remember what the commercial was for??? Any one out there remember it? In the commercial they chatted back and forth, and didn't make a bit of sense. I feel sorry for their husband's. Linda
