I hope the 's in that OP are banned. We would never be able to get away with that as children--our parents would never allow that kind of behavior to go unpunished.

Quoth Captain Trips View PostAnother in the "can't you take a joke" crowd.
"Can't you take a joke?"
"I was just kidding."
"Suck it up, man."
And variations on the above: I have finally realized what these phrases really mean: "Okay, I was wrong to do/say what I did. But there's no way in hell I'm going to apologize for it."
I admitted I was wrong to pop my cork right away, and I said I was willing to take ownership of my behavior, but I asked CI to take ownership of hers. She bluntly refused. "I didn't do anything wrong," she said.
That was AFTER she said, "Sapphire, you don't value people."
We have a growing class of people who think everyone owes them respect, but that they don't owe anyone any respect in return. People have forgotten the Golden Rule: treat people as you want to be treated yourself. We see it in Sucky Customers, Morons in Management, and CoCW all the time. We see it in punks who bluster about being "dissed."
Ugh. I better stop here.They say that God only gives us what we can handle. Apparently, God thinks I'm a bad ass.

Quoth notalwaysright View PostLike the other day there was this lady with rolled remnants of fabric... I was cutting her fabric and saw her tearing open the remnants to "see how big" they were. I said "I'll cut the tape for you, please don't tear them." She said, "well I'm not messing them up" and tore the rest open and I don't think bought any.I don't have an attitude problem. You have a perception problem.

Quoth Sapphire Silk View PostUnbelievable.
This bitch needed to have been told, "Would Jesus have made such a mess and asked someone else to clean it up?This was one of those times where my mouth says "have a nice day" but my brain says "go step on a Lego". - RegisterAce

Quoth CorneliaMarieRocks View PostI'll take 'Jesus throwing the money collectors & Co. out of the Temple' for $1,000 Alex
These women were smearing condiments all over the place for fits and giggles. The two scenarios have absolutely nothing in common. So yeah, Sapphire Silk's question would've been quite valid to ask them. Sadly, I suspect RealUnimportant would be right about the blank stare in return.I don't have an attitude problem. You have a perception problem.

They probably don't have jobs, Air_Stewardess. They live on trust funds, Mommy & Daddy's credit lines or public assistance. I hate to think that someone with a job would be such a jerk....OTOH, they could have one where they take abuse and grab any chance to dish it outI'm trying to see things from your point of view, but I can't get my head that far up my keister!

In other cases, they do work, but rather than sympathize, they instead perpetuate the cycle by passing the abuse on to another schlub.PWNADE(TM) - Serve up a glass today! | PWNZER - An act of pwnage so awesome, it's like the victim got hit by a tank.
