    Macho Macho Man

    Quick BG info: I'm a chick

    Yesterday, between idiot CW's parking and idiot guest's parking (think: came into angled parking from the wrong direction), I could barely squeeze into my employee parking spot. I kept my car as close to CW's car as I could, so that the guest enough space to get out and because I hate this particular CW.

    Anyways, whilst I thought I'd given the guest plenty of space to get his car out, apparently he didn't think so. He came in ranting about how some car was blocking him in, and kept saying how it probably belonged to some "Macho Male."

    Me: "Oh, I'm sorry, that's my car. There wasn't much space for me this morning and that was the only spot open. I thought I left you enough space, so I'll go move it."
    Guest: "Um, er...oh, that's okay, I'll just move it. You don't need to worry."
    Me: "You sure? It'll just take a second."
    Guest: "Really, it's not a problem. Sorry to bug you."

    So, suddenly there's magically enough space and it's not a problem?

    Guest moved his car,came back and apologized to me, saying how he really hates "Macho Men" because they "don't treat their women right." Apparently, he did have plenty of space to back out; he was really just looking to confront whoever owned the car.

    Now, here are a few very important points to consider:

    1) I drive a sedan which isn't sporty or "macho" at all. It's a '97 Mits Mirage. It's probably as far away from macho as you can get.
    2) I have sparkly butterfly decals all over my car.
    3) I have purple butterfly seat covers.
    4) I have a cute stuffed animal on my dashboard.

    Considering the above points, how the h*ll does one come to the conclusion that it's a "Macho Man's" car?

    I'm wondering if your confrontational guest wasn't a "macho" man himself and saw the sparkly stuff on your car and was hoping against hope it was some man he could push around.

      He was probably like Tony Dinozzo and had car gender issues.

          Maybe he thought it was a Macho Man trying to hide the fact?

            I just bought myself a Hello Kitty water bottle. It is metal (literally; I need something that's going to handle some rough housing and double as a bludgeoning weapon).

            I'm also considering going to the local clothing maker's shop and getting myself a short-sleeved, pink collared shirt for work with the words, "Bad Man" written on the back.

                  Is it Macho or Nacho?

                    He saw the car, hoped it belonged to a hot chick (or a young one anyway) came in ranting about "macho men" and how he hates the way they treat their "wimmens" with the hope that said hot and/or young chick would go "OMIGOD Random yelling man, you are the man of my dreams" and start vigioursly humping him.

                        I wonder how this situation would have played out if this guy...



                        Had owned the vehicle in question. That poor SC probably would've had slim jims stuck in places he never thought possible.

                          Remember the Old El Paso commercials? They used that one and I think "El Paso" by Marty Robbins (fun fact - that's UTEP's fight song).

                              If it were Utah he would probably be looking for a fight and a guy with that type of car is someone he could justify "fag bashing" and then go back to his friends and brag about putting a homo back in his place (double bonus kudo points if you start said bragging while dressed up to go to a church event while riding the train towards said church event sadly, I'm not making that up)

                              Considering it's not Utah, I'll go with it being more likely that possibility.
