since it appears, with everything moving to online and human interaction frowned upon (my school administration says we all need to be anti-social because of this pandemic), the "magic words" and being tolerable has been replaced with narcissism, egotism, selfishness, and an unbelievable inability to relate to people at all.

I am married, but romance is dead as now, all you need to find "love" is swipe to the left.

Because of this pandemic, it will only get worse. And remember, the selfish will say "you can't control others. Maybe you need to adjust to what everyone else is doing," as I am told constantly.

She will never have this good of a job again. And all because she wanted to bully and exercise her “right” to be a complete a-hole.

She’ll just blame cancel culture, liberals, and whoever else she hates. Will never take responsibility herself.

When it comes to pesonal defense I'm not gonna go quietly or easily in any situation. About all it would take would be the heel of your hand applied with force up under her chin and she's gonna get rocked back, at a minimum. If you applied that to her upper lip it could actually run a risk of seriously injuring her. Applied to the base of her throat it could leave her in some actual airway distress. If she's just acting the fool at a distance then ignore her, otherwise take her out. I told my husband I figured that in a case like that one it mght even be worth the fall I'd take while wrapping my walker around that cow's head...

What she did was assault. You have every right to defend yourself.

I just do not get why these people throw away their lives with such abandon. Looking at her LinkedIn page she has spent decades building her career step by step.

And to just toss it all away is beyond stupid. Her god Trump and his kid's are all just fine, all living the high life. Amazing how these people will toss their careers away for a guy who could not care if they live or die.

Glad she got bounced. And it’s all over the Internet so it’ll probably follow her around for awhile. Maybe, hopefully, into a court of law and then into a nice little while in custody.

And put other people in harm's way.

All the while the GOP leadership is well vaccinated, has top of the line healthcare if they get sick, their kids are go to private schools where masks are mandatory.

Yes why the magats are so willing to toss it all away, lives and jobs is a question for the ages.
