I May Look Funny But You'll Always Be An Arse

[Amethyst Hunter]

Wow, that guy's overdue for an asswhupping...!

I've been wearing glasses since I was in 3rd grade. And boy are they bottle bottoms....I get the COMPACTED PLASTIC and it's still 1/4 inch thick some places.

Same here. Without my glasses, I would literally have to get nose-to-nose, *right in your face* in order to be able to see you clearly enough.

[Shironu-Akaineko]

Oh yes, because blindness is so hilarious. Stupid asshole.

Hey, so is castration! *kick in the dingalings*

I've punched my boss's boss's boss, I've nearly bitten customers, I hit a customer with his own foam sword, I'm STILL employed, I'm this close to kicking people in the jingle-jangles.

He so deserves it too!

[Der Cute]

Chained - you have my respect. I probably would have thrown the money at him and said GET THE F*** OUT OF THE STORE YOU BELLEND!!

We often seem to wish we were quick-witted enough to come up with a smart response.

But I have found that in far too many situations "Fuck off, idiot" works a treat.

[tropicsgoddess]

I applaud you for your self control over that asshole and his out of line remarks. If it was me I would've kicked his ass to the moon for that without thinking twice. Sometimes I just don't understand how some people can be so insensitive.

[Chained to the counter]

There was talk about getting my eye fixed, this was back in 1989, but eye surgery was a little dicey back then and there was a big chance i could go blind, they said to wait until i was 16 to see if i wanted it done ore not.

I decided against it, it wasn't bothering me and not many people commented on it so i thought to just let sleeping dogs lie. Mum wasn't too pleased with my decision, but it wasn't hers to make.

SC " What's wrong with your eyes, are you retarded or something?

"No sir, that affects the brain, as I'm sure you know from your own experience."

ME " No i'm not, i have a turned eye
SC " So your blind, haha your blind

Oh yes, because blindness is so hilarious. Stupid asshole.

Now, I am not particularly good at coming up with spur-of-the-moment comebacks, but this popped into my mind the moment I read that: "So... being an asshole... how is that working out for you?

I imagine saying the first part without looking at him, but then as I say, "how is that working out for you?" BAM! Direct eye contact. No smile, just a curious expression with raised eyebrows.

Probably not the best solution for job security, but damn would I get a laugh out of it.

... I can still move one of my eyes independently of the other. I can even move it to the point that I have double vision.

Just thought I would mention that I can do that too. Always fun to freak someone out. Also, for some reason, I can contract my pupil, like a camera lens when you zoom in. Not sure why I can do that...

[Despina83]

Just....wow. Just when you think you've seen the bottom of the barrel, a customer grabs a shovel and digs deeper.

[marty]

Wow, I admire your self control, I think I would have lost it had someone said that offensive and downright stupid to me.

[aurelemsrealm]

Just so you know i have a turned eye and lazy eyelids, it is a result of all my mothers epilepsy medication she had to take when she was pregnant with my sister and I, it doesn't affect my vision in any way.

So anyhoo i had a customer come through my checkout tonight, all was well, he gave me money, i gave him change and bid him a goodnight. I caught his eye and this is the exchange.

SC= Guy who needs to mind his own bloody business
Me= Cashier extrodinair

SC "Are you looking at me?"
ME "Yes, have a good night"
SC " What's wrong with your eyes, are you retarded or something?

No, but you seem to have the job of resident retard covered. *flashing snarky smile*

I have a fabulous friend who was totally blind in one eye and legally blind in the other until he had a corneal transplant. But he has been coping with his eye disease since age 7, so nobody would ever know until they stared right in his eye and saw that it was all cloudy and gray! Then they wouldn't believe the other one was also bad until he showed them his eye was pointed! He got a lot more rudeness for being feminine and a roller blader and swimmer though.

[LifeCarnie]

I was born with a "lazy eye" which was surgically corrected. I had an eye doctor tell me that the surgeon who repaired my eye actually did a a really nice job, but I can still move one of my eyes independently of the other. I can even move it to the point that I have double vision.


For the most part, I have control over both eyes, but sometimes one eye tends to wander and I don't even realize it. I can not make eye contact with anyone else who has eye problems though, because it tends to cause my eyes to move erractically.

I hate when people pick on people who have issues with their vision. I have a friend who is legally blind to the point that she is technically blind as well. Her life is tough enough without Arseholes gving her crap.

[Dave1982]

I can sympathize with you. I am extremely far-sighted (my glasses are +4.25 diopters ) but it went undiagnosed until I was 8. All the unconscious eye straining I had to do to see actually caused my left eye muscles to spasm and turn that eye in towards my nose as far as it would go. After quite a few tests (including an MRI*) it was eventually determined that I just needed glasses. Still, for a couple of days I was practically blind because of the resultant double vision. And everyone would either scold me for "looking at them cross eyed" ("I can't help it!" wasn't an acceptable response to them) and/or made fun of me for it. As long as I have my glasses on, my eyes behave, but for years afterwards, whenever I took them off, my left eye would turn in again.

Still, there's no reason to act like that. What your eyes do indicates nothing about your intelligence. What. an. ASS.

*It wasn't until about 10 years later that my mother finally told me that my initial diagnosis was that I'd had a stroke or otherwise suffered some sort of brain damage (), which of course had scared the hell out of her. Thankfully, my brain was (and still is!) fine. My eyes just suck.

I would've called a supervisor while he was counting his change to see if a banning would be in order.
