I was at work last night and as usual some dumbfuck did something stupid to piss me off. But this time he managed to make it stick. I’m still horrified. I need some help venting, as the paragrapgh from my journal didn’t help enough. Any suggestions from the great ones?
"Oh. My. God. A guy in here just whistled for his girlfriend. I’m not kidding the same three note whistle I used for my dog when I was little.
Whistled.
I was playing with my chain mail hand thing and had to restrain myself from launching it at his head and starting in on The Rant[sup]TM[/sup]. As it is I still have my job but I’m indignant. MY DEAR GOOD GOD IN HEAVEN WHAT THE FUCK MAKES YOU THINK YOU WHISTLE FOR YOUR GIRLFRIEND? Shitstained cum rag!
I’m not a man hating feminist. I’m not. I love men. its fucking assholes I want to castrate."

I agree, it sounds bad… but what were the circumstances?
If it was a private joke between the guy and his girlfriend, then all they are guilty of is bad taste. Did she smile when he did it? Did he look upset, or was he smiling too?
If not, then it sounds like a bad attitude on the part of the guy, and that’s worth a rant all of itself.
We really need more information to make a good opinion of this incident. Can you fill in the details?
Ah, yes, the wonderful tendency to get offended on behalf of other people. Did he whistle to get your attention? Isn’t the girlfriend able to stand up for herself? This is your business how?
Ducking and running?!?! Are you mocking those who cannot stand up straight? What are you, a posture Nazi? Making fun of those poor bent over people. I am SO OFFENDED!
Hey, you don’t know. Maybe the guy is a mad scientist. And maybe his girlfriend and dog were in an auto accident. And MAYBE he figured the only way to save them both was to put the dog’s brain in his girlfriend’s body.

What?!? It could happen! Hmm… you know, this would make a decent Hollywood screenplay… OK, OK, it’d be horribly lame, but I could just put ‘Alan Smithee’ on it, take the money and run.
Well, I hate to say this, but it might make sense. I mean, yes, if a whistle means “Come!” it’s awful, but if a whistle means “Hey, can you spare a sec?” it could be rather efficient to commuticate across a room. It depends on the situation, and if people all know each other.
I’d be embarrassed to be whistled for probably, but not if we both did it and everyone knew.
To get back to the rant, (I have trouble agreeing with people) and use some foul language: if he expects her to obey the whistle, just 'cos he whistled, he’s an evil rectumtorus who ought to be put down, or at least taught the concept of other people.
I think this needs more context. My mom taught us to whistle for her and each other in stores to mean “Where are you/Come here.”
I assume you mean the three note whistle I’m hearing in my head, but it’s pretty hard to communicate that through ASCII (please tell me I got that right) characters.
Anyway, are we sure that he was just being a macho idiot, and not needing some way to do something besides yell?
