> [@VanLandry](#): > > Man, you libs will bitch about anything. Yeah, well some cons-- like Rush, Glenn, Sean, Bill-- have actually made a pretty good living about bitching about anything. Hell there’s a whole cable news network devoted to cons bitching about stuff. So careful where you point that partisan finger. ---

Since we are talking about Tea Baggers accosting people, getting in their face, I wanna say one thing. I don’t go around hassling strangers. In return, I don’t want anyone hassling me, if I am just some place minding my own business. In short, I expect and demand these clowns leave me the fuck alone. It’s none of their fucking business who I vote for or voted for or will vote for, it’s none of their fucking business whether I support or oppose whatever they hate at the moment. Stay out of my face. Period. Stick a finger in my face, it may get bit off. Figuratively speaking. ---

> [@bouv](#): > > Don’t some Subaru models have **box** er engines? All modern Subarus have “boxer” engines, meaning they have the pistons arranged on both sides of the crankshaft which go back and forth rather than up and down. VW beetles and Porsche 911s have them too. ---

> [@Southern\_Yankee](#): > > Looks like her peeps might be listening… > > [Link](http://themoderatevoice.com/67443/driving-with-an-obamabiden-bumper-sticker-can-be-dangerous/) Only if her peeps have access to a time machine. This incident happened ["Last Thursday (as reported on March 29)](http://www.nbc-2.com/Global/story.asp?S=12219095) Palin’s speech happened the following Saturday. In fact, the link in the OP starts with this: > [@](#): > > Less than a week after a Nashville man was driven off the road because his car sported an Obama-Biden bumper sticker, Sarah Palin has called on Tea Partiers to stop drivers whose cars have a similar sticker. So I think we can give her a pass on influencing events that took place in the past. ---

Stay out of my face. Period. Stick a finger in my face, it may get bit off. Figuratively speaking. I was walking through a parking lot the other day when I passed a car with a bumper sticker reading: **“Somewhere In Kenya, A Village Is Missing Its Idiot”** The driver was getting out of his car as I walked past, and I _so very badly_ wanted to say “Well, we know where ours is…”, but I thought better of it.
