Nicely done.

Awesome story, WTG!

The crazy thing is that I also said what I wanted to say to some jerk yesterday - but I did it at work.

The story isn't worth telling in full, so in short, a lady hung around my desk for hours yesterday being obnoxious, then began insulting and baiting me when I got angry. I was able to keep my mouth shut for a few insults but the fact that this woman was calling me impolite pushed me far enough to say "Coming from you, that means a lot."

Yeah, I'm going in to answer to my supervisors today for that one. Usually I'm very in control, hell, I'm the person they call to deal with crazy people, but this lady....yeech.

Must spread mojo.

I don't have as much as you deserve on this one, GC. I'm so proud that someone finally stood up to the dingbats in this world. That was awesome!

I'm going to use that one next.

Boy, I hope nothing happens today. I'm in even more of a curmudgeonly mood today than yesterday. (iSm says it's a full moon officially tonight. Uh oh.)

I thought my ankle was going to hurt this morning, but it doesn't.

Oh, GC, it is such a freakin' pisser when these lamebrained people, oblivious to life around them, almost take YOUR life {or injure you} all because they are so f'in full of themselves!!!!

Like what you discussed, CoasterMatt, that happens to me a lot while out walking. I cross a few very busy streets. These people are running late for work but I don't freakin' care!! So I'm supposed to die because they might be late for work {actually I see this happen as we're driving around, too, people running late}.

I yell at people but the Hubster told me to take it easy. He, though, has thumped peoples' cars, jumped on a few hoods.....

I am glad you are alright, amazing that you could have been seriously hurt because some toothy broad driving the car I would like to have had to talk on the phone while driving.

Watch it today!!

I loved reading this! I'm glad you're okay... I also loved that you called her "Big Teeth".

Oh... And on behalf of all Mini Cooper drivers worldwide, I appologize for this dim bulb. She does not represnt us all.

I'm glad you gave her a piece of your mind! Sadly it probably won't change anything but maybe she'll think twice next time.

Um, GC ... I have learned the moon is not full until Tomorrow, the 26th.

I suggest everyone else in his path just hide.

On the getting run over side, the crosswalk right outside my building is NOT at a street intersection. It's just a traffic light in the middle of the road, because there's not an intersection for a long distance.

Well, you can imagine how many people (often quite innocently) run that light. It's a busy cross-walk in Century City where thousands of lives are daily at stake.

I'll have to bone up on my bon-mots. I am a fairly witty guy, but I'm in the camp that needs a slight time-warp delay to go back and say the clever thing that occurs to me a minute later.
