“there are that many loons”

Yeah, there are-and some are people I thought I knew...

When I stopped at my friend’s deli for my weekly treat of a small turkey and cheese, my plumber friend who is her neighbor, was there getting a sandwich, too. He and I were making small talk in the parking lot, when somehow the subject turned to the election and politics, and I guess I’ve been more affected by the election debacle than I thought.

Proving that you don’t always know your friends, he proceeded to talk like an absolute moonbat, and I just went off on him, told him he was ignorant, crazy as a s***house rat, etc. He just chuckled, patted me on ther shoulder and said something like don’t-worry-your-pretty-head-darlin’, and I was so furious that I shoved him with both hands so hard that he stepped backwards into the fender of his truck, and I hissed don’t you dare patronize me, you ass****, got into my car and left.

He was one of MrT5’s best friends, and has always been either fair or free with his plumbing work for me, so I feel awful about acting like such a bitch-but I’m out of patience with people with his mindset right now, so I have no intention of apologizing. I will be needing a couple of small plumbing repairs soon, so I guess I will know if all is well if he answers my service call...

I am not a hotheaded latina, I am a stoic Eastern European but if I had some jacka$$ say don’t worry your pretty little head to me I’d have gone off on them too. I don’t blame you one bit!!!
And I’m operating on a hair trigger these days also. The daughters of my black lib friend are annoying the crap out of xsbaby on Facebook with obamaluv. I haven’t spoken to my friend since mid-sept pretty much bc of the election knowing they are on the other side. I won’t be able to speak to her for a few more at least. Xsbaby sends me the FB entries and my inclination is to blow them sky high for it, xsbaby is tempted to unfriend, and xsteen is counseling to ignore it. I don’t want to lose the 25 yr friendship and I know Cheryl would be sensitive to me and the girls personally but the Facebook millieu lends itself to that crap. She’s not said anything but the daughters are loving on the obams family. In any event, I sympathize. Were anyone to say ANYTHING untoward to me now, I’d go absolutely ape$hit on them
