7. Good for you for standing up for yourself
Edited on Thu Dec-16-04 02:34 PM by fertilizeonarbusto
and all your friends who were not there to defend themselves. However, I have a bone to pick with you: never apologize for standing up to a hateful bully, even if you feel you "lost it." You did the right thing and were severely provoked, period. If you had just played the meek liberal, then you should be ashamed. We have to fight these people with the weapons they understand, which means all of us will have to keep going through scenes like this or be thought of as weak and cowardly by our adversaries. So, give yourself a big pat on the back. You deserve it. And I hope the rest of your holidays lack this sort of BS. BTW, thank you for honoring my favorite goddess with your name. She's a harsh, demanding, but very rewarding taskmistress.
