Monologue Mania Day # 1224 Response to The Annoying Man Festival  by Janet S. Tiger (c) June 21, 2017   

For all those who made complaints (you know who you are!) that the original post (below)was 'unfair' - you were not alone!

       (The woman comes onstage, yes, this is the writer again, this time holding a paper)

For those who complained about the Annoying Man Festival monologue two days ago, I got one note from someone pretty high up - and I'd like to read it!

       (Unfolds a page, clears throat)

'Dear Janet'  

       (Puts paper down for a moment)

Now this is a very busy person and if they can take the time to write 'Dear Janet', everyone can do that on the emails!

       (Opens paper again)

'Dear Janet

There was an error in your monologue on Day #1222 - you list the ANNOYING MAN FESTIVAL when in reality, the accurate name is....THE ANNOYING PERSON FESTIVAL.  And it has been running continuously since Adam and Eve.

Thank you for making the correction promptly.

Yours truly,

God '

            (Starts to fold paper, looks at back, reads)

Oh, and there's a PS........Really enjoyed your Day # 379!  I love when people get a laugh - from me - I get so many from all of you!  

       (She looks up, shakes head, exits, only slightly annoyed because after all, you can't be too annoyed with God, too much good stuff!)

Monologue Mania Day # 1222 Annoying Man Festival  by Janet S. Tiger (c) June 19, 2017   

                                                 Annoying Man Festival

       (The woman comes onstage, yes, you are right, this is the writer again)

When I told my husband the name of tonight's monologue was the Annoying Man Festival he actually said to me.....
"Who's it about?"  And then he laughed and added, "I'm only kidding, I know I'm the headliner!"

After that, I have nothing left to add- except for this informational note for all unfamiliar with the first headliner of the first Annoying Man Festival - Adam.

       (She exits, back to the yearlong, decade long, ok, eternal!.....Annoying Man Festival!)

For those who prefer songs about this topic - see True Love by Pink.  In the movies, the scene would be in Moonstruck - famous line by Cher -"Snap out of it!"
