So I'm buying my daughter a Trophy Wife Barbie doll for Christmas |
|
and after the clerk is done bagging the gift, he gives me my debit card back and says "have a nice evening." So I bow my head to consummate the purchase with a shopping prayer. I'm only about 45 seconds into it when he asks me to get out of the way so he can help the next customer.
That's when I totally lose it.
"Listen, you fucking asshole!" I declare, "I should have demanded a refund and left when you used that commie atheist phrase 'have a nice evening' instead of the proper 'have a blessed evening'! Then you top it off by trying to take the goddamn fucking Christ out of Christmas by denying my 1st Amendment right to pray?!?!? Why don't you take this goddamn Barbie and shove it up your fucking ass?"
Do you think I overreacted? :shrug:

Now if you had whipped out a jar of lube and stuck barbies head in it, that might have been going too far.

There are at least a couple of closeted gay republican congressmen, but if you prefer, we can make him head of the RNC.

4. If anything, you should have slapped him hard as well |

Make him know his place. You're the customer. You're above him. What's with all these uppity poor people.

8. I plan to return tomorrow with my daughter. |
|
I'll spend a few hours there ignoring her while she fusses and "rearranges" the store's merchandise. After that, I'll take her for dinner at a fancy restaurant.

11. Simmer down. Everybody knows you're Canadian. |

You don't have any "First Ammendment rights". Only we do :sarcasm:
Didn't some town in New Brunswick declare that only Christmas shall be used in their municipality?

12. Windsor, Nova Scotia did that yesterday. |
|
City Council passed a resolution that Xmas is explicitly an Xian holiday and will be referred to as such. No mention of how they intend to manage Chanukah, Kwanzaa, Solstice, etc. Ignore them, I suppose. Benighted, priest-ridden blockheads!

I may live in Canada, but the only nation for which I have citizenship is the United States. I still have a mild Kansas drawl.
I'm a fake! :cry:
In fact, I didn't buy my daughter a Trophy Wife Barbie. I made the whole story up. :cry:
