To make it as short as I can, Scylla uses his “nuclear sneer” on and snaps at a bratty kid who was bugging him at Target, and puts the kid’s mother down with a snappy retort that I completely believe and don’t think at all that he came up with after the fact to make him look like an internet tough guy. I posted that I thought that was kind of shitty. He replied that he’s proud of being a shithead and it felt good. I said basically whatever, shithead. So he said
So I came to the pit so I can respond appropriately.
Go fuck yourself up the pisshole with a barbed wire dildo coated with broken glass and superglue, you condescending spoogenugget.
So what you’re saying is, you WERE just posting because you believe it’s your job to go around and chastise people for the flaws in their behavior, and that you consider it your deserved payment to receive their grateful accolades for the service you provide.
A normal human being. And that kid needs someone to say NO to him. How is telling a kid you don’t even know that you will not buy him something he’s begging you for being a dipshit? I don’t think Scylla is the dipshit here.
The whole thing is a story. A tale. An anecdote intended to entertain.
That’s it. No doubt it started with a nugget of truth (whiny kid in store demanding something), and then was expanded in the imagination of the writer. (what did the kid want? “Lunchbox” is funnier. Let’s make it that), and then had some details thrown in (what would I have done if I had actually done something? I know, I will write an amusing description of my “sneer”). Finally, let’s come up with an amusing ending.
Just enjoy the story for what it is; an attempt at an amusing anecdote. But no need to be critical of the author for something that happened only in his imagination.
For stylistic reasons only (haven’t yet read the concerning thread), I give you 8/10. By your low post count I suppose this is your first pitting, and I wished I was as creative as you the first time.
Please. How hard is it to ignore a five-year-old? You don’t even have to look somewhere else - all you have to do is not look down. Just carry on with your business and erase them from your consciousness.
And before you say, “But he’s shouting!” - it’s not your kid, so who cares? What, you can’t deal with a little noise?
If your hero Scylla gets to do it, why can’t I? Or are you going to say he didn’t post that because he wanted everyone to know how he chastised the mother and the child for the flaws in their behavior and thought he deserved accolates for what he did, you enterotoxic shitspray of a sycophant?
Right, how hard would it be to leave the aisle as soon as you see trouble coming and get back to it later, or I’m sure an able-bodied adult should be able to outrun a child. Worst case scenario, go to customer service and say the kid is following you and crying and you can’t find his mother and let the staff deal with it.
Summary for those who haven’t read the linked story:
Five year old is at the end of their rope, on the edge of a meltdown, fixates on something, and can’t regulate emotions.
Mom is desperately trying to get weekly shopping done, staying in budget, while corralling two children b/c she doesn’t have access to childcare so she can get shopping done.
Pitiful fucker is proud of himself for making the five-year-old melt down at Walmart.
Nah, for that you need to use the real heavy artillery. But it’s fitting, there are bigger assholes and bigger assholeries going on at this board than Scylla’s. Save all your meanest spite and bile for those fuckers. Scylla’s only a braggart and a storyteller. Mostly harmless.
