i didn't stutter

One of my many pet peeves is when people do not listen. I hate repeating myself. Especially when it is due to the fact the asker is not actually listening to me and processing what I am saying and is one of those inane small talkers. I also hate it when people ask multiple versions of the same question. I'm finding this happens more and more as my wedding date nears. Unfortunately most of the inquiries come from people I have to interact with on a regular and/or professional basis so I cannot provide my standard bitchy answer that shuts people up. I have to come up with more creative ways to deflect their obnoxious questions.

Like, when the person asks for the eightieth time whether I've progressed any with my plans, I ask if she would like to be my wedding coordinator. Since she seems SO concerned with how things are coming along.

Or, the handful of people who are breathlessly waiting to hear our honeymoon destination. I'll send you a postcard, bitches. You aren't invited so why do you care?

Or when the fucker I've replied to via email twice and called back three times and said NO to, asks me one more time to reconsider. I didn't change my mind. Get over it.

I know some people are socially inept and only have a limited supply of topics in their "rotation" but go bore and annoy someone else.
