The Kabuki Play 3

Kabuki is a traditional form of Japanese theater that portrays the lives of people who lived during the Edo period (1600-1868). While it's subject matter is primarily historical, Kabuki's extraordinary spectacles of color and sound through acting, dancing and music still symbolize contemporary life.

HISTORY OF "THE KABUKI PLAY"

  • The original "Kabuki Play" writings exposed a brash inner monologue as I struggled through the trials and tribulations as a college student. Broken friendships, irritating dorm-mates and akward trips home between semesters kicked off the first "Kabuki Play" series. However, college didn't last forever and "the real world" was right around the corner with drama ten fold.
  • "The Kabuki Play 2," a darker and more disturbing account, told the unsettling story about my first job after graduating from college, it being one of the biggest trainwrecks in the history of "The Kabuki Play." After being caught in the middle of 10 consecutive firings in less than two years and being stuck with four pisspoor bosses, I decided that I'd had enough. So, I quit my job and cut off all the negativity in my life, and moved two hours away from home to start my life over.
  • With a new job, my own apartment and a new beginning, "The Kabuki Play 3" picks up where the second series left off and revisits my inner monologue as I try to leave the past behind me and spread my wings.

Please Shut UP.

I don’t understand why annoying people are so unaware of themselves. It’s like they don’t know they irritate people and therefore, make things worse because they don’t know how or when to tone it down.

I’ve given this a lot of thought over the past few months. For instance, there are people that talk about nothing else other than their friends and family; tangent after tangent of too much detail and not enough substance. Do these people honestly believe that we care?

What’s so special about your boyfriend’s annoying mother? What is so interesting about your friend who you THINK I might like? Why should I care about how you used to do things at your previous job?

Well, I don’t. Do you?

People like this ignore obvious body language of disinterest and detachment, yet continue to yap. It’s worse than “beating the dead horse.” How many times can I possibly hear the same shit over and over again and still be interested after the 5th time?

I HATE it when they won’t let you go or trap you in a corner to tell you something that’s “so funny,” but truly isn’t. Why do they do that? Is it a need to be heard? Are they lonely? Or is it mental retardation? I guess the important question is how to get them to shut the FUCK UP?!
