C2MJobs are some of the best places to people watch and build friendships around it. Depending on where people work, I’m sure they are introduced to a variety of personalities and body types.

In my life, it all goes back to coffee; coffee, gossip, and people watching go together like beer, cigarettes and making an ass out of yourself. Coffee, gossip, and people watching are fun when you are drinking coffee, but vital to one’s survival when you work at a coffee shop.

Diary of a People Watcher: The Starbucks Culture

C2MHave you ever noticed that Starbucks is its own culture? Seriously sit by and watch the people that enter the building.

Starbucks attracts many different kinds of people that stand in line with their nose in the air and a stick in their ass. The only explanation for such barbaric behavior is an inferiority complex that stems from being miserable in their current day lives.

Take the horribly disfigured Marry Poppins for example; she walked into the store with a horrible pink shirt, and some khaki shorts that made her legs look like cottage cheese. Does that sound gross? Just thank God you didn’t see it in person, I had to hold back the vomit in my throat. Her voice was just as worse, it sounded like a cross between a cat being raped by a horse and an American trying to force a British accent.

Diary of a People Watcher: The JC Watch Party

By Connect2Mason Blogger Brandon Weathers.

It’s the end of an error and the beginning of change. Say hello to the players who will determine the future of our country. On the conservative side we have the senile Mavericks, Sarah Palin and John McCain. Opposing the red team in a cloak of blue delusions come Barack Obama and Joe Biden.

The real interest this year does not lay in the potential leaders themselves, but the people who cling to their every action. The Johnson Center or JC, as it is commonly known is a melting pot of cultures, people and idiosyncrasies. It is a place with green pride and golden opportunities to watch people make asses out of themselves. It is also the scene for where I make fascinating observations about my fellow Americans.

Debut: Diary of a People Watcher

When people walk by, you either learn or make assumptions like “Why did she wear that, or that ain’t no apple bottom, that’s a fat ass.” Essentially the human race is the same we look, we analyze, and we judge.

People often look down on others who judge; they consider it putting others down in order to make ones self look better. This rule however doesn’t apply to the hobby of people watching. People watching is an acceptable and somewhat expected tradition of passing judgment to point out the flaws in other people.
