Hi everyone. So last night the doorbell rings and there's this girl looking for Tyler. Apparently she's his latest flavor of the month. He told her he thought she had to work and she said she did but work was boring so she ditched and wanted them to go out and do something. So Tyler goes to take a shower and this girl comes into the living room and sits with Tristan and I. She's typical of Tyler's type. Blonde, very pretty and big boobs. No sooner than she sat down she asked me " OMG, why are you so pale??" Sigh.... I told her because I had albinism. She asked what albinism was so I explained it to her. She said " OMG, how did you catch that?". I told her it was a genetic disorder and that I had been born with it. From the blank look she had I'm pretty sure she didn't know what genetic meant either. Then she said " so I guess you can't be in sunlight. So do you just like sleep during the day and just do stuff at night then?". I told her yes I slept during the day in a coffin in the basement. Then she says " oh, so you're like a goth then?". LOL! I've never met anyone who was too dumb to understand blatant sarcasm! I think Tristan was afraid I would say something nasty because he changed the subject. So after a couple of minutes she asked him where he was from. He told her Australia. She said that was really cool but that she could never live like that and she bet he was glad to be in the USA. He asked her live like what and she said out in the wilderness. Then she said she'd seen some nature specials about the outback and it was all just like the wilderness. Tristan said yes, but that was the outback and he was from Perth which was a huge city. She said she didn't realize Australia had cities like the USA. LOL! He told her they had indoor plumbing and everything. Lol. So then a few minutes later she tells me I should look into a tanning bed. I told her a tanning bed used UV light. She said " yeah, but it's not sunlight so it should work on you". Sadly she's not the first person to say that very same thing to me. So she talked about her job a little but was staring holes through me. Finally she said " I could swear your eyes are glowing". I told her it was from my albinism and she says " oh you caught it in your eyes too. That's awful". Thank god Tyler came and got her and they left.
Tristan and I just laughed for a couple of minutes. How does someone that utterly stupid even survive? ? I mean it's a miracle she hasn't managed to accidently kill herself through stupidity. In any other person I would have taken the stupid questions about my albinism as an insult. But I could tell this girl actually was that dumb! How does that even happen?? Is there like a stupidity epidemic going around??
