Well, if there’s anything worse than an asshole, it’s a grumpy asshole. Sorry about that. 
Uh, as an asshole, how does it make you feel to say sorry? I didn’t know you guys did that…
That was the eye of the storm, motherfucker. A lull in the nonstop onslaught of invective. The intermission in the middle of a movie version of L. Ron Hubbard’s Mission: Earth. Halftime of a WNBA basketball game. There’s plenty more suffering on the way. :mad:
He apologized to me. From this moment on I will have that in my possession. The one person to whom onecentstamp has shown his soft vulnerable underbelly of sensitivity. And I will wait until the time is just right before I sink my teeth in and expose his insides to the rest of you for what they really are…soft and gooey
Do I know you? I think someone’s been messing with my computer.
Well, I just hope you don’t lose your union card for it…
What’s the difference between being an asshole and being a prick?
I’d worry less about the loud teenagers and more about the Muni driver. If you don’t hang on tight, you’ll go flying out the window at every high speed turn and screeching stop.
So, Mr. Asshole, why don’t you prove your assholery and get a job as a Muni driver? They are some pretty serious assholes.
This has turned into a flirting thread. OneCentStamp and lobstermobster sittin’ in a tree…
I take the 38 to and from work. No turns. The screaming foul mouth teens are my biggest complaint with muni
The asshole always gets the girl :mad:
I am glad you asked. Assholes are generally crass and openly insult, provoke, and threaten people. They will often go out of their way to harm others even if it requires extra effort on their part. Assholes tend to be loud and sometimes try to fight people when they have been drinking. As noted, they are incapable of serious empathy or sympathy. Assholes can come from any socioeconomic background but people in blue collar jobs have an added advanatage. A disproportionate number of them are police officers so that they can enjoy be assholes to people without the fear of reprisal.
Pricks like me are a different breed. The primary trait is an inflated sense of self and abnormal selfishness although these aren’t necessarily broadcast openly to the world like an asshole might do constantly. You may meet and new person and not find out that they are a prick until days or weeks have passed and the scattered evidence because overwhelming. Pricks are usually more intelligent than assholes and the slights are generally much more calculated and subtle like working subtly to harm a coworkers reputation one piece at a time. Pricks love subtle acts of revenge and hardly ever do anything based on true altruism. Pricks often hate various groups even based on lifestyle (I don’t like hippies or chronically poor people for example) and make it a point to degrade or slight them at every opportunity. Pricks can be seemingly well-mannered and charming and women tend to love us (for a while anyway).
Wow. I had no idea prickness and assholitude were so complex.
Or “circle takes the square,” one might say in this case.
Excellent summary by the way, Shagnasty. Now we just need to hear a brief testimonial from a shitheel, a loser, a mook, a bonehead, a fucktard, and a garden-variety jackass.
Come on, don’t be shy; I know you’re out there. Don’t make me do it all myself!
Don’t forget the twit, the jerk, and the creep. They need love, too.
Yup, I’m a prick. I don’t like hippies or chronically poor people (though hippies are chronically poor nearly universally, all chronically poor people aren’t hippies). I also hate a few other groups (none racially motivated).
Though perhaps I am a crossbreed, cause I don’t get into fights when I am drunk, but I do often openly insult people (though I guess I am a BIT subtle, go too subtle though and the dumbasses won’t ever realize you are insulting them).
wait…I’m not sure I know what you mean. Are you calling me a square?
Ah, yes. I used to be one of those little bastards. You’re pretty much fucked, unless you can pull off the screaming psycho bitch thing and back it up with a taser. That might get you arrested, but any lesser response will only result in them calling their friends and swarming you.
Hey asshole,
Do you still get you Big Macs in the non-biodegradable Styrofoam boxes? Why do you steal my handicapped parking space? I assume you are not handicapped either.
Also, Toby Keith, patriotic American, or Xenophobic asshole?
