Thread Name: BS: A Fantasy of mine.
Subject: RE: BS: A Fantasy of mine.
I tend to think JtS is venting frustration with all rude people. I certainly know my frustration seems to grow day by day these days. People seem to be increasingly losing The Golden Rule in favour of gaining selfish, childish and downright rude behaviour.

Not only has the young gentleman been extremely rude, he actually has done so ON PURPOSE... who leaves, if not the engine running, the keys in the ignition in the accessory (or on position in late model vehicles)? Only a very rude person. I certainly understand the frustration with rude behaviour and see NO connection with wishing to censor anyone elses' musical tastes.

My fantasy is to, when someone cuts me off in the grocery store aisle or blocks the entire aisle, OBVIOUSLY sees me but ignores me until I say, "Excuse me, may I get by?" and then say, "Sorry.", reply, "No yer not."

Ohhhh wait, that's not a fantasy. My fantasy is to say, rather, "Excuse me. You can see me here. Get some manners and move yer rude ass outta my way you ignorant fuck."

As for being punched, that would be a bonus as our stores have video security cameras.

JtS is not the intolerant party in his fantasy although I would say my ending would be somewhat different. I usually hawk a big loogie on the window... again, not a fantasy.

I should say, however, that as I have lost my physical prowess due to disease and injury, I seldom do such anymore, but seem to want to do so with, as a said above, rising frequency and I find that a very sad commentary on the state of our society manners and upbringing as a whole.

JtS... next time ya see that prick, call me. A properly placed 2" #12 wood screw works exceptionally well (REAR tire, of course... I am not THAT miserable a fantasizer). >;-)
