Bob!!! This surprises me. But way to go buddy. Did you have time to do a little happy dance over the bastard's prone carcass? The jackass.

People, who when eating meat that has some amount of cartilage, proceed to crunchily chew upon every little bit, making a noise akin to slowly snapping a cat's tail bone by bone... it kills the appetite.

People who serve meat with cartilage or gristle so one has to decide between crunching it up, swallowing it whole or spitting it back out.

Well, since I give up my seat on the bus every single day to some old lady or another while other young fully fit young men just sit there, I feel I have the right to not be physically impeded by just such a young fully fit young man.


Here's another commuting a**hole story: My wife and I are on the bus going home sitting on seats that face inward (rather than to the front) towards another row facing us. There's a skinny guy across from us reading a book with his legs crossed such that he's blocking the open seat next to him. He's also sitting a bit on both seats. A woman gets on and wants to sit there and says "excuse me". He responds by looking up, getting a perturbed look on his face, and then barely moving. This lady was not small, but she was far from hugely obese. But she fit in her seat just fine. "Full figured" maybe. But because he didn't move over enough (still blocking her seat) she pushes into him. He looks disgustedly at her and then looks up at us with a slight knowing grin as if to say "********* made me move, can you believe it?" We both proceeded to just stare at him with nasty looks on our faces making it clear that we don't share in his feelings. Mine hopefully also conveyed a look of "and if you take one step too close to me I will stomp on your flip-flop clad feet with the full intention of breaking your toes just to punish you for being such a dick."

Bob - You live in a crowded metro area ('the Naked City', as it were): mass transit assholes (massholes?

) abound, and letting them get to you will drive you insane! I save my ire for able bodied morons being inconsiderate towards the elderly, infirm, pregnant or mothers struggling w/ kids. Otherwise, I find it's not worth it....

So much anger, here I worry, that this thread is not helping, the healing.

I am pissed that US is not populated by Germans.
And it is getting noticebly worse every 5 years or so.
People who work in different services are getting progressively imbicile.
In a past 6 mnonths I had problems with:
BankofAmerica
Amex
FedEx
Realtor C21
KennethCole
PayPal
Commerce Insurance
Parking garage of Plaza hotel in NY
Few restaurants.
City of Boston transportation Dept.
and the list goes on and on.

Mind you none and I want to emphasize, NONE of the problems were due to my mistakes.
Some of them are still remain unresolved.
They are absolutely avoidable problems if only employees of named organizations had German brains.

Deutschland uber alles!!!!!

That of course, but also they would read your mind. And after they've read it they would not stop slapping you

Kenneth Cole? However, I agree that most of those institutions are altogether incompetent without the redeeming intervention of mental marsupialation.

Apparently something's gone awry with the bearings of my car, such that it will need an additional $300-400 dollars of work. I'd like to just get rid of the ******* thing, but public transportation in this city is a joke.

Paypal and eBay remain the shittiest ******* companies in the entire world, including whatever Chinese companies are putting carcinogenic cardboard in baby formula this week.

I am conflicted by my impending college attendance, which I still thoroughly regard as a swindle on the aspirational middle-class.

While on the phone with a Miss Cleo-soundalike Paypal representative, my phone made some bizarre noise and went from having a full charge to being non-operational.

I am a couple weeks away from homelessness due to odd twists of fate pertaining to roommates.

If I saw this post, I'd entertain posting a LiveJournal logo as a snide response. Son of a *****. I have lost.
