I am so fu*king sick of a$$hole$.

20. Awe… where do I begin?

Besides, I liked your story for the strangulation factor. I would have probably retorted to Dr. A. Hole's giving you the rudest title award with, "Gee… I have that honor? I thought YOU were the rudest person in this neighborhood. You certainly are in the running under the municipality you live in… You're rude to take advantage of every requirement you had for vehicle registration, on street parking, trespassing, and obstructing an emergency lane. What if someone called an ambulance, you clueless DICK?"

I can compare notes, and they vary from assuming remarks that are rude, to outright road rage, or kids that you see growing up in your neighborhood and all of a sudden they are 20 year old SUPER assholes, flipping you off and calling you a bitch when you tell them to stop speeding down your street.

The trouble with getting as mad as I do is that I run the risk of someone going BEYOND normal rudeness. I value my life too much, if you know what I mean.

Hope this helped offload your pain. Personally, I think parenting skills are the exception and not the rule, and people are turning into anti-social animals. They have no practice in day to day normal public interaction. Is it a sign of a weakening state of the U.S.? Mmmm… Yeah, I'm beginning to think so.

By the way, all this seems to fade away when someone is truly kind to you. That kind of person is liable to be over the age of 70 or 80, IMO.
