She was riding on the bus this morning, sitting on an aisle seat. (She’s nineteen, in case anyone thinks this is a school bus or something.) This guy is standing next to her, using one of the ceiling straps for support. All of a sudden he starts grinding his crotch into her. She tells him to fuck off and he says, “You know you want it.” She nails him in the tender-jewels with an elbow and he goes right to the floor. She gets up and STOMPS on his nutsack then reports him to the driver. The guy stumbles to his feet and charges down the aisle at her, physically trying to fight her. He had to be restrained by two men before they were able to throw him off the bus. I taught her a few things about fighting, but this was all instinct. For years I’ve been trying to get her to take a martial art. Maybe she doesn’t need it? Just thought I’d get her a round of applause from the Dope because I’m so damned proud of her. ---

Oh, hoorah, hoorah for AnalSister . . . eh, ScurvySister? Honey, your name doesn’t lend itself well to the word “sister.” Anyway, I completely commiserate with your sister. I’m nineteen and my own experiences with middle-aged men on the bus . . . shudder. I’ll never understand why somebody old enough to be my father would want to date me or would even think that dating a teenager would be a good thing. Especially when they’re wearing a wedding ring and a pink bowling shirt. Sarah ---

I had some pretty severe reservations about opening a thread titled “A Round Of Applause For My Sister” by someone named Anal Scurvy. I mean, in the course of surfing the internet, I see more of this sort of thing than I’d like. But eventually, curiosity overcame native caution. And I gotta agree with the Scurvmeister. Sis deserves a rousing round of applause, and the guy in question’s lucky she didn’t actually give’m what he deserved… ---

Good for her! How come they threw him off, though? Shouldn’t he have been taken to the police station? (Or is that when he was thrown off, Officers Friendly were right there, at the ready?) ---

Good for her! I have a friend who did something similar. J is blond and beautiful with a Barbie doll figure. Some guy in Wal-mart one day started making crude remarks and then actually grabbed her breast. He didn’t know she took boxing in high school. J broke his nose and left him crying in the floor when she went to report him to store security. I don’t normally advocate violence, but crotch grinding or boob grabbing constitues a physical assault in my book, and responding with force is sometimes STILL the best way to make these Neanderthals see the error of their ways. _applaudes ScurvySis_ ---
