(47,675 posts)He even makes fun of my next door neighbors (who are black) and jokes about scoring with teenage girls. I wouldn't put it past him. I'm good friends with the next door neighbors and take personal offense that he would put them down. He also puts down HIS next door neighbors who are Asian - wonderful people and have helped me out on many occasions. So yeah, I'd like to slap him around a bit.
He's also one of those lawn weenies who mows diagonally even though it's less efficient than lateral (for his yard shape). His yard is so toxic that there are always those little warning "POISON" signs all over it. Okay, I'll just say it - he's an asshole.

(47,675 posts)I just wave and otherwise ignore him now. He's not worth my time. He knows better than to set foot on our property - the dogs even know he's an asshole and they make it clear. Besides, if someone's going to slap him around, it should be my wife - she's a 3rd degree black belt and can kick the living shit out of damn near anyone. I can still fight, but she's much better at it.
Hey,
I agree with ohiosmith, slap that idiot around some.
Peace (Irony?)

(95,337 posts)When there is a traffic merge and you are in the correct lane it is NOT your goal to let all the other dumbass drivers who wanted until the last minute to merge to get ahead of you.
You let one car go ahead of you then you go then car in other lane goes and then I go so on and so forth.

If she did i would have went around her - ther was no traffic coming the other way.

(47,675 posts)It makes sense if you think about it. Rotaries are making a comeback because they're far more efficient than traffic lights. But you have to let incoming traffic in to keep them efficient. And your last line is correct: "You let one car go ahead of you then you go then car in other lane goes and then I go so on and so forth." - that's how it is supposed to work.
LynneSin
(95,337 posts)Those things are death traps.
But I agree with the rest - you alternate

(2,654 posts)Don't know about you, but fitting in a binder with other women is rather uncomfortable. It is hot and sweaty in there and if we have to wait for Romney to open up these binders, we will wait forever.

(14,400 posts)Here I am being nice and letting people merge in front of me and she is just flipping out. Man I could see the vein in her forehead was about to pop.
I found that kind of funny so I let a few more people in. I was going to get out and check the tire pressure in my kick ass mini van, because you can never be too careful about proper tire inflation, but I was kinda worried that she might be armed.
steam coming out her ears and fogging up the windows?
I love when that happens.
LynneSin
(95,337 posts)And yes I am armed - I have TWO of them and that bear in my car he has the rights to bear arms too!!!

(14,400 posts)I've always believed in the right to bare arms, especially in the summer when it's too damned hot for long sleeved shirts.

(2,872 posts)My facebook "friend" just posted this gem:
"Just one more to think about....Romney is running for president because he cares and he wants to bring this country back to a time when we were strong and respected. He does not need the money nor does he need or want "status". He is self sufficient and well respected. He is charitable and serves & gives back to others.
Obama has a chip on his shoulder. He wants money, status, position and "followers". He wants everyone to praise him because he is just a poor little black kid from a poor family and he made it big by becoming president. He kind of reminds me of someone who said "follow me and I will control you and make you dependant on me and then you must give all the glory to me". Hmmm..."
then she deleted the down thread comments questioning her judgement, but left her rebuttals. Oh, and Fox News is "one of the most liberal out there." Out where? Right-wing Hell?
