The Don't Series

1.Do not ever attempt Mariah or Whitney karaoke. They'll always be better.
2.Don't wear copious amounts of L.A. Looks hairgel unless you want to look like you work at Jiffy Lube, or Jon's Autobody.
3.Don't eat bananas or apples within 20 ft. of another human. They both make irritating noises that could lead to potential violence.
4. Don't shave your bikini line while you're in a hurry. Unless you want a botched vag.
5. Don't say "Miss Jackson if you're nasty" to people named Janet.
6. Don't say to me, "Does this match??" I don't effing know, I never match. Matching is for people with no imagination.
7. Don't drive while holding a dumbell in one hand and a toothbrush in another. Yes, I've seen this.
8. Don't ask me if I've "Accepted Jesus into my heart" If we're close enough for you to ask me such a personal question, you'd already know the answer.
9. Don't floss with strands of your hair; in public.
10. Don't trust people who say, "Can I be honest with you?" You mean, you haven't been?
11. Don't say "panties"- ever. The word makes me feel like a 5 year old prostitute.
12. Don't forget to turn off the lights. Ya know, Global Warming.
13. Don't date guys who are looking at your Mothers rack. Unless it's better than yours. They're hard wired.
14. Don't make anymore excuses for Lindsay Lohan. I'm sick of her face.
15. Don't assume a man is straight if he's wearing a V-neck shirt.
16. Don't blame it on rap music.
17. Don't blame Marilyn Manson. Stop blaming the f*cking music.
18. Don't blow your nose at the dinner table.
19. Don't let your horoscope determine the course of your day.
20. Don't wear big earrings when you work out. I almost chipped a tooth.
21. Don't ride a bike while you're drunk, unless you have a really good helmet and a cushy ass.
22. Don't tell me Amy Winehouse to go to rehab. She already said no three times. (I'm not saying I agree, but she's been pretty clear.)
23. Don't wear a white dress to a wedding, you aren't the damn bride- attention whores.
24. Don't say, "Well Dr. Phil said...."
25. Don't throw in your commentary at a movie theater, this isn't The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
26. Don't read the newspaper on the toilet, if it's going to take that long I'd suggest a trip to the Dr.
27. Don't take any parenting tips from Wife Swap.
28. Don't ask someone if you can kiss them. Just go Tarzan on them and start licking their face.
29. Don't go to Kohls. Unless you want to look bored with life.
30. Don't ask why I don't like- fish, steak, vomit, etc. Ask my fucking tastebuds they made the decision.
31. Don't tell me you like to hunt. Or I'll strap antlers on your head and make you gallop in a field.
32. Don't burn my ear drums with Russian techno dance music blaring from your souped out Honda.
33. Don't vote Republican.

The botched vag, hunting and republican ones were my favorite and had me laughing. Loudly. I mean, the whole list was hi-larious but those three were just.. yeah. I heart you. Seriously.

Chelsea Talks Smack said...

Deutlich- Thank you lol maybe we can hunt republicans? hm.. Oh, and I heart you too.

Jess said...

Vanessa said...

Virginia said...

HAHAHA I love this list!! I can't even choose a favorite thing to agree to...though you're so right about #32 and could you please come tell that to my neighbor?

nicoleantoinette said...

Shanti said...

*always be my baby is the one exception to not doing mariah karaoke. i always wished i wanna dance with somebody by whitney would be too, but its not.
*my mom dragged me into kohls the other day. it's not usually her style, but we were looking for cheap yet cute placemats. the only other time i'd been in kohls was when i was in green bay wisconsin. while i do love the GB, i dont need to revisit that feeling of being there unless i'm actually there.
p.s. does this make sense? i'm kinda drunk.

Le Petit Chic said...

Oh my god, that was awesome! And banana noises? They kill me!

L Sass said...

Wait! What noise does a banana make? Is this a common complaint? I had no idea!

Rebecca said...

great list. How about these?

Don't listen to everything Oprah has to say.

Don't assume cab drivers know where they are going.

Don't eat that questionable thing in the 'fridge.

and...

Don't spend 100k on grad school if you still don't really know what you want to be doing!

Nilsa S. said...

Great list! Now I'm going to march through the day barking "don't"-isms to anyone who will listen. (The numbers are few, I promise.)

Damsel in Digress said...

ana said...

Chelsea Talks Smack said...

Crescenet- Thank you thank youuuu :)

Captain Backfire- I'm glad you agree, it makes me feel like a whore. Hate it.

Katelin- Tell momma to lighten up. lol.

Michelle- THANK YOU AND, yes I actually wrote a blog about that awhile back....unless you're stranded on the side of the road without triple A, it's a booty call.

Damsel- I'm glad you visited! I love your blog, I read it everyday!!

Each of two- Good, I'm glad you don't do any of those things, you probably wouldn't read my blog if you did.

Ana- Thanks yo ;)

Jamie said...

34. Don't wear leggings as pants.

35. Don't do all your hair and makeup then dress in sweats and uggs. You are a walking contradiction and look ridiculous.

Chels, you are my new favorite!

Renee said...

#11: There's a word for that. Prostitot.
#28: That didn't end in my favor.
#32: I dated that guy.
#33: I won't. EVER. (Unless Colbert runs as a Republican.)

Chelsea Talks Smack said...

PROSTITOT! I LOVE IT.

And yeah Colbert would have a free pass. :)

Hillary said...

I threw up a little in my mouth when I read #9. I think it should be amended to "Don't floss your teeth with a strand of your hair. Ever. You sick bastard."
Also - thanks for stopping by my blog! I'm a newbie so I almost hyperventilated when I saw that I had 2 (2!) comments today.

Feminist Gal said...

ok so #7: I once saw a womas "driving" while painting her toe (TOE!) nails and drinking coffee... she had her foot up on the dashboard... we were on the highway too!
Anyway, thanks for stopping by the blog :) i'll definitely check out more of your posts, this one was brilliantly sarcastic :)

~Angela~ said...

1. Can I add Bette Midler to that? I have a friend who always sings "The Rose".
6. A coworker recently asked me if I avoided matching on purpose (I was wearing off-white pants and a blue & white striped shirt at the time). .
9. Flossing with hair? Next time I'm in a bind, I'm going to try that. Not in public, though.
23. But it was an emergency! (Emergency: I look really good in white.)
28. A guy recently asked if he could kiss me. Took all the fun out of it. I like the moment where you wonder if they're going to kiss you. That sort of ruined it.

mama's got moxie said...

don't tell me that that schuyler fisk chick (you know, over there on your player on the right hand side of the screen) doesn't have a cd for sell at target!!!!!! oh, i love that song "hello" now!! i listened to it twice on your blog. and yes, i loved your list too. it was maaaaaaad funny. i can say maaaaaaaad, it's okay. but dang, why isn't her cd out like now?? bummer.

Tia said...

Elisabeth said...

Love the list. Bananas are gross.

And Kohl's makes me sad.

Chelsea Talks Smack said...

Hillary- It's alll good. I'm new too, started in September, so I do cartwheels everytime I get a comment.

Feminist gal- I'VE SEEN THAT TOO!
And thank you, yes I am a sarcactic. b-iatch.

Angela-please dear god, tell her to STOP singing it. Oh, and the hair, really does work.

Mommas got moxie- SCHUYLER FISK, is incredible. Interesting fact: she's Sissy Spacek's daughter. Glad you liked my tunes ;)

Tia-Thank you, I feel they're pretty crucial.

Chelsea Talks Smack said...

Elisabeth- Kohls, is a sad. sad. place.

Who? Me? said...

Can I just say how much I heart you. You know Rocky Horror Picture show! Don't tell me you don't like it or I won't heart you anymore...but seriously? No one ever knows what I'm talking about if I mention it. Thanks for making me smile!

Chelsea Talks Smack said...

OFFF COURSE I KNOW ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW!

I've got the Time Warp down to a T. ;)

Buffy said...

Do they still make LA Looks?

Chelsea Talks Smack said...

Heidi B said...

5. Just as bad as "Julia Goolia"
11. You were a 5 year old prostitute? Rough
18. My date tonight blew/wiped his nose 2-3 times with his cloth napkin during dinner.
21. I have the scars to back up this theory.
24. I detest Dr. Phil

Lisa H. said...

"Don't ask someone if you can kiss them. Just go Tarzan on them and start licking their face." -- I was taking a sip of coffee right as I was reading this and spewed it all over the keyboard.

ParisBreakfasts said...

Don't forget Dr.(?) Phil said,

"This poney don't ride"

which will go down in posterity as one of the most brill expressions of our century or any other.

Otherwise I hate him like Hell

Maria said...

great list!

Monsieur Design said...

Ace said...

Stop. Seriously. You are making me unattractivly snort at my cubicle. I cannot stifle laughter without looking like I'm going to pee my pants.

getdone said...

I HATE KOHLS. Glad someone else shares that sentiment.
