"YOU LOOK TIRED"
Do you know anyone that says this constantly??
I know someone who says this to EVERYONE, ALL THE TIME! It's almost like it's part of her greeting!
I used to tell my hubby I give her half hour before she says it to me and for the most part Im known (even by them) to always be on the go, peppy and running at all times. so it's quite hysterical that she says it to me. Even if Ive JUST left the house, makeup, looking decent
Once we were at a family thing, and I heard her say it to someone else. It was her first time meeting this person and the person was like "Um, no, im not tired at all"... and this person is also very much an active person, always on the go.
The person that says this all the time is a bit dramatic, acts like shes 3times her actual age, ALWAYS complaining about "getting old" (she's only 40 ) and is always concerned about some ailment that doesnt exist...
A few months ago I caught her offguard, and exploded laughing when she said it to me, and I said "there it goes, I was waiting for that, it's part of your greeting" and she's since stopped saying it
dont people realize some things are not PROPER to say to someone???
ETA: on the phone, even with my loud voice, milea-minute, screaming at the boys while I cook and talk on the phone, she'll say "I'll let you go, you sound tired"
ETA: See Deb? Your post got me started!

Re: "YOU LOOK TIRED"
She is obviously not using the word correctly-- even though it's like a second grade word.
I HATE it when people say that to me-- translation-- you don't look good today. It's rude.

Yes it is I can see some days if Im running myself ragged and I AM tired and look it too but this is constant, even if we just left the house to go out to dinner, and she even said it to someone at a family function who was dressed up, looking perfectly fine.

Re: "YOU LOOK TIRED"
If I knew her, after a while, I know I would wind up replying with "I know. I just hope I don't look as tired as *you* do..."

Re: "YOU LOOK TIRED"
I HATE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of my co-workers says this to me almost every morning. I used to jus tchalk it up to her being completely socially retarded, but recently, I have started saying things back to her like...
"It's 7:00 in the morning. What do you expect?"
"Gee, I'm so glad I took the time to put on make-up, blow out my hair and attempt to look decent, you just made me feel like crap"
And my favorite - - - - "I was up all night having wild s e x"
Drives me freakin crazy.

A few of us came to the conclusion that SHE'S really the one thats always feeling tired and so she somehow tries to project it or blame it onto everyone else
I love her, but she's one of those people that is obsessed with aging, feeling all these pains, constant 911 trips due to her anxiety (even Dr's told her "YOURE FINE GO HOME!" so we think SHE wants everyone else to be down too
PEople ususally ask me if I just drank a bottle of coffee, and she asks me if Im tired

Re: "YOU LOOK TIRED"
I hate when people are like that.
I have this one co worker at my second job. Everytime she sees me she asks me "What's wrong" and then when I say nothing she has to say "Are you sure?" NOTHING is wrong! Leave me alone!
And I barely know this girl, so if something WAS wrong you are the last person I'm going to talk to about it!

Re: "YOU LOOK TIRED"
I hate when people say this! Another one that drives me crazy at work is when people say "Is everything alright? you're really quiet today."
Shouldnt I be quietly working???
