Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade

Tonight at my part-time job at our friendly neighborhood Barnes & Noble, one of the managers (I use the term loosely -- the moron is about a year older than me and considers himself to be quite the shit because he was a history major. Yeah, and I was a religion major. Who the fuck cares?!) informed me that I "have the personality of a wet blanket."

Not quite the thing you want to hear when you're experiencing depression and your feet hurt and you're doing your best to ward off an ever-approaching migraine. Jesus Christ.

He apologized later, in no uncertain terms, after I was found crying in the break room.

Zoloft, sweet ambrosia of the gods, I could use some help right about now.

    How seriously can you take someone under the age of 80 that uses the term "wet blanket"? It must be a major bookstore chain managerial thing, as I came across many such people in my two years working at Borders. I hope he's still not upsetting you with inane, outdated insults!
