:rofl: Subtitled: How to Put Smug Repukes In Their Places on The Long Drive Back
OK, here I was earlier today, driving back from a professional conference in the NC mountains. It was very cloudy when I left, but about 20 minutes later, the clouds cleared and it was a beautiful day. There is still some color in the fall leaves, and it was very pretty. I had my Talking Heads mix CD in the car stereo. About an hour into the trip, I had to make a pit stop at a rest area. This was on I-40 East about three miles from exciting Nebo, NC... :rofl: As I pulled into the rest area, "Wild Wild Life" was playing. If you're familiar with the lyrics (which I've posted below), I had literally just come off the mountaintop. :P I was in a rental car, a red 2007 Dodge Caliber, which is a very sporty little car. (That's what they gave me at the rental agency---I didn't pick it.) I noticed a group of what appeared to be three businessmen (all of them somewhere in the neighborhood of 50 years old, which is not a problem but gives you an idea of what they looked like) in identical outfits standing near one of the cars, smoking and drinking coffee. The way they were dressed---long-sleeved white shirts, bad ties, black pants, and black shoes---they were either businessmen or Mormons. :P Anyhow, when I pulled in and got out of the car, all I was interested in doing was peeing and getting back on the road. I guess I was a novelty there or something, because all the cars there were boring white sedans, and there were no other women there as far as I knew. I was (and still am) wearing jeans and a clingy black top that's fairly low cut. (Yes, that's relevant to this story! :P) I stepped out of the car, trying not to make eye contact with those guys. One of them looked over and said, "Hi! How's it going?" I said, "Fine!" and hurried to the bathroom. When I came back outside, I overheard what they were talking about----they were boo-hooing over how the awful Democrats have now taken over the House and how they would probably have the Senate too, and they were really slamming the Dems and taking Nancy Pelosi's name (and Hillary Clinton's name... and Bill Clinton's name... and :rofl:) in vain. Well, the yuckiest one of the three looked over at me and smiled, and he said, "Hey, pretty lady! That's a really nice car! What kind is it?" His eyes were focused on my chest. :eyes: I decided to totally fuck with them since I'd heard part of their conversation and since he was staring, so I smiled and said, "It's a brand-new Dodge Caliber. I just bought it today to celebrate because I am SOOOOOO happy the Democrats are back in power!!! I know you guys all voted Democratic, so you must be just as happy as I am!!!" He said, "No, we're all Republicans. We're good Christians." I said, "Really? That's too bad. Good Republicans and good Christians don't stare at my cleavage like you're doing right now." I smiled and waved and got back in the car, and looked back at them in the rear view mirror. They were standing there, stunned. I started laughing uncontrollably...and the CD started right up where it left off earlier, with "Check out Mr. Businessman..." :rofl: :spray: I laughed my ass off all the way home, which was another two hours... :P
I swear, the timing could NOT have been better all the way around! That song was perfect, and I did NOT plan it that way at all....:rofl: :applause:
