Don't you feel better now?


I suppose I really dislike you because you are a coward, and you combine
that with being snarky, smarmy, and unctuous.

We had a few assholes like you way back in junior high school who
behaved as you do. We snickered and sometimes applauded when the class
tough guys had enough of your kind, and beat the crap out of you after
school. Naturally, your type complained to the principal, and when he
called for witnesses, no one stepped forward.

There was a kid in ninth grade who I vaguely remember. Ronnie something
or other. He kept ragging a couple of juvenile delinquents who had their
own little "pickup" basketball game after school. I have no idea why he
did this, but he behaved much as you do. He got the crap beat out of him
every other month. Our guys, who played basketball on the court the ones
the "tough guys" used. would never rat them out. Ronnie deserved the
bloody noses. He got what we called "righteous" hits.

Were you Ronnie? You sure remind me of him.

You really are in a cranky mood today. What is 'snarky'? 'Smarmy' and 'unctuous' I can handle.

Do you find your tone somewhat threatening? Would you want to meet *yourself* for lunch?
