Why are people so mean?

The tulips are gorgeous, you've arranged them beautifully  .... much better than his crummy orchids.  if I was there I'd have given him a what for !  
Love the mansplaining @Giovanna_BCNA

How awful. Good for you for still buying yourself some. What an ass. Definitely better to take your business elsewhere.

LMAO @Giovanna_BCNA That chart for everything always forever

Sister

And @kmakm How is it that your house (from that picture, anyway) looks so elegant?

Hi there @kmakm what a fucking arsehole ..... but one of the “perks” if you can call them that from me having bc is these days I simply say whatever the fuck I want whenever the fuck I want. Since i no longer tolerate dickheads in my life. I stay professional at work but no longer get walked over like I have previously having my “I’ll do anything for anyone attitude” taken for granted. I still do “anything for anyone” but im far more choosy about who they are. Be proud you told him to fuck off. You have a big family and would of spent heaps in his store in the past. Just let it go and move on. The tuplips from the IGA are gorgeous. He’s a wanker and kharma will well and truly bite him in the arse don’t worry. Don’t let him ruin your lovely day or take the soul from your beautiful heart. I’m guilty of using the bc card when I feel it’s needed. Don’t you worry about that love lol.

And @zoffiel. Fuck I would of given anything to be at that hardware store counter that day what a bloody cracker you are !

@kmakm your tulips are beautiful sorry you had such a time getting some flowers

kmakm

Thank you everyone for your heartfelt support. I adored your hardware store meltdown story @Zoffiel; you're a woman after my own heart.

That arsehole's wife is lovely and she's often in the shop alone. I'm going to tell her what happened and how they're now going to miss out on hopefully at least THREE decades of flower money, not to mention fruit & veg shopping. All my local friends will be informed. Loathesome toad.

It made me miserable for 24 hours but I'm over it now. K xox

kmakm

Well @Sister, thank you for that very nice compliment about my house.

I've given it some thought and have decided that it's a method I'm calling Zonal Elegance. You have to say that in a Prue & Trude voice (Kath & Kim).

So here's a shot of my tulips today:



Nice eh? Could be in a Home Beautiful mag, right?

OK, so here are the tulips from another angle:



And another:



Not so elegant now eh?! SO much mess... 

Sister

Reminds me more now of mine! I just don't have the zonal thing happening - anywhere.

Sorry to hear that Kate,but the flowers will bring you some happiness.

Sister

You'd have to do something about the hoarding husband, @kmakm

kmakm

@Sister Oh easy, I've watched Hoarders. I'm sure I could psychobabble him out of it!

kmakm

Thank you @Kcteds, they do

Kate go easy on the wife!  You don't know the back story and there's always one
