furnishesq, this one's for you.

CanadianSue, how did you resist the temptation to embarrass the crap out of the schmucks who made the stupid assumption that because you could walk from one side of the car to the other, you had no right to a handicapped decal?

The one thing I would never do is humiliate my son. He may have disabilities, but he does understand whats happening. If anything, I have tried to teach him to hold his head up high and ignore dumb fucks who are ignorant to the world around them.

I rarely will be rude to anyone in front of my son. I will admit tho, on occasion, I’ve lost my cool and ripped someone a new one, but not often.

Somehow I figured that was the case.

Anyone know a classy, yet humiliating and educational comeback for schmucks like the ones who snubbed CanadianSue? One never knows when this info might come in handy, like, say, the next time I leave my grandparents off at the curb when all the handicapped spots are taken and need to park far away and walk.

Eva,
I usually flip 'em the bird, but I wouldn’t call that classy. The only classy thing to do is walk away. There is no reasoning with these people (see other Pit thread on this issue). They are right, they have the right to think it, and they will think what they want regardless of your situation. If you aren’t missing a leg, you have NO right to park in a handicapped spot, use a scooter at the store, or otherwise get assistance.

When I had my spinal surgery, I used a cane for 6 months to get around. I had older people at the mall COME UP TO ME and accuse me of faking an injury for sympathy, saying there was nothing wrong “with your foot”. There is no stopping the rightous- they know all.

I honestly hope that karma doesn’t teach them the lesson they so desparately need to learn. It’s a real motherfucker of a class.

Tell us again why thousands of people deserved to died because we are snide assholes.

Explain why those people whose patriotism was awoken by the events of September 11 should not be allowed to express it? It may have taken a tragedy of this scale to open our eyes, but they are open now. How is this a bad thing?

That’s just fucking lovely and deserves no comment.

Monica - You’re a fuckwit who should consider stuffing your hole until you know what you are talking about. You don’t know Zette nor do you know her childbearing situation. You owe her an apology, although I doubt we will see it.

Bitch.

Uh, yeah, I did. It was an open invitation for dickheads to show their ass. You showed the world yours.

You betcha. We have no ability to vote. We are not able to make changes in the law by lobbying Congress. We are powerless little ants living in a Communist colony and you Ladyfoxfyre are an idiot.

I’m surprised someone hasn’t taken you to task for not presuming that Healthy-Looking Running-In-Stilettos Chick isn’t riddled with debilitating diseases that validate her need for handicapped parking. :stuck_out_tongue:

Right. You’re completely correct. It’s so convenient of you to illustrate your arguing tactics so well, “I don’t like what you said, so you are a dickhead.”
:sigh:

You seem to be extrapolating quite a bit from one little sentance. I never said we had no ability to vote, or make changes in the law. Nor did I say we were living in a communist colony (?) so where the fuck to you get off saying that? You must not posess an ability to identify a hyperbole. The funny thing is that another poster said something very similar to what I did, but no need to attack it right? No, of course not.

Did I say that anybody deserved to die? I’m sorry if I didn’t explain for the more sensitive crowd, didn’t feel I really needed to considering nobody else was. But once again I am surprised. My point was that Americans are so arrogant as to believe that we are untouchable, and that this certainly demonstrated that we are not.

There have been countless threads about this, I don’t understand why you feel the need to attack this statement as well. Once again, I never said that they shouldn’t be allowed to express it. I said it was illogical, and convenient. I don’t like it. Obviously you do, and I’m not going to personally attack you for it, but some people aren’t below it I suppose.

That’s just fucking lovely as well, so it deserves no response.

Yeah, you’re right, that was the point of the thread, however I think you have missed one small detail. Anything you write on a public message board is open for criticism. There is no immunity for assholish comments if you post them in a thread created for that purpose. I suggest you choose your words more carefully if you don’t want the heat they may bring.

Almost, sorta, mostly. I think you’re a dickhead because of the things you said. I don’t know you IRL, so your words are all I have to go by.

Oh do tell, if you weren’t implying that voting or lobbying doesn’t make a difference, what did you mean by your comment: "The idea that our country is still a democracy is a sham. Our opinions haven’t made a difference in the past 15 years, nor will they make a difference in the future 15 years."

AGAIN, let me quote your words back to you. You said “The reason we were attacked is not because they are jealous, it is because we are snide assholes who deserved it.

Who deserved it? The innocent people who died? Their families? Those who still have nightmares of that day? Who?

There is a vast difference between saying “that Americans are so arrogant as to believe that we are untouchable” and saying “The reason we were attacked is not because they are jealous, it is because we are snide assholes who deserved it.”

Saying the later makes you the asshole.

Personally attacked? Holy cow, if you think my post aimed at you was a personal attch you need to grow a thicker skin, Toots.

So, do you think that those people whose patriotism was awakened by September 11 should not be allowed to fly a flag? It’s too bad that it took a tragedy of this caliber to open our eyes, but tell me again, this is a bad thing, why?

Your comment stating that “90% of the people you encounter on a daily basis deserve to be euthanized for their absolute stupidity” was fucking choice.

Yeah, yeah, hyperbole. I’m still curious as to who should die.

Who should we start with first? The mentally retarded? God knows they aren’t the sharpest crayons in the box. How about we lead them into gas chambers. What about the idiot bag boys and girls at the grocery store who always smash our bread? We could line them up at the top of a ditch and pick them off one by one with a shotgun. Maybe we could hand out IQ tests on a yearly bases to determine who lives or dies.

How about we judge on common sense instead of IQ? No one should be spared! Not the clerk who messed up your order because her mind was on her sick child at home. Not the driver who pulled in front of you because he just didn’t see you. Not the customer service rep who had a bad day and didn’t understand your question the first time. People who post idiocies in a message board? Hell no! Die fuckers, die!
