Some little asshole at the gas station was driving a car with one of these:


This is probably my most detested sticker, and there seem to be a few of them around here.
I parked next to the guy to get gas and tossed him a snide, "nice bumpersticker," complete with eyeroll. I know, real mature.
The dumbass got all excited and said, "Yeah! I'm sick of hearing about gays thinking they should be able to get married and all that shit. They're fucking disgusting."

I said, "I was being sarcastic, honey. I think you're the one who's 'fucking disgusting'."
He muttered something largely indiscernable about me being a lesbian, and I laughed and said, "Yeah, tell yourself whatever you need to, to explain why women find you repulsive."

Morans: A constant source of amusement.

:rofl:

2. I'm sure it made no difference.
I'm sure he'll still be a homophobic dick. But it made me feel better.

3. They couldn't even come up with a better sticker?
If I'm going to parade my idiocy in public, I at least want it to be attractive.

5. I see that sticker on the freeway on a near-daily basis.
I am SO sick of it. I always make faces at people who have one on their vehicle. I just detest it. They should get a more accurate one like, "HEY! GUESS WHAT?! I HAVE MASSIVE ISSUES WITH MY OWN SEXUALITY!"

couldn't tell you were being sarcastic....Oh wait; no I don't.

Why do the assholes ALWAYS assume everybody agrees with them? :eyes:

At least you left him flustered! :)

11. It allowed me to exorcise some of my nastiness.
I've been holding back for awhile, and he just happened to be the proverbial straw, today.
I get so mad when people set their focus on repressing another group of human beings. I mean, really, doesn't that guy have anything more profound to be concerned with? Criminies.

28. I agree
I wrote a paper about that for a senior level english class in undergrad.

I am unsure if I can type the title of that paper in its entirety here, but:

"Republicans Have Small Pen!$*&" Was the title, without the characters of course. I never saw an english prof laugh as hard as she did when I turned that paper in...

is why conservatives think that new Fox News comedy news show is HILARIOUS!

He'd probably believe you meant that seriously if you said that to him too. :eyes:

I usually try to say stuff like that...in hopes that they'll drive away thinking...."wait a minute, I think she was being sarcastic!" If that dawns on them, maybe something else might -
like "maybe not everyone DOES agree with this bumpersticker...maybe I'm being an ASSHOLE!"....

I can dream anyway. :D

32. Good comeback!
What I find most ironic is this: Ask a "traditional marriage" nut to explain what their problem with gays is. You'll be told (a) that "the Bible forbids homosexuality" (can't do much with those people - they're minds have been made up for them) or (b) that "they're promiscuous and irresponsible." I always ask these people that if that's what they really believe, then why would they take issue with a gay couple wanting to formalize a commitment (and put half or more of their personal assets at risk) to an exclusive, life long relationship. In every case I've seen, they still won't get it. Scary.

35. Good for you
Good for you for saying something. What is unfortunate is that so many of these knuckle draggers think that everyone agrees with them because more people don't tell them what a dick they are. Always the one way street. They think they are right and won't even entertain the possibility of another viewpoint. Why they think that a same gender couple somehow diminishes their relationship, I will never understand.

I thought they thought marriage was for procreation and not recreation.

Hey, man... You can't just buy one item. It's a packaged deal.

We're the liberals. We offer cafeteria style beliefs.




Oh and if he hadn't noticed... Even with his bumper sticker. THERE'S STILL GAY PEOPLE, DUDE!

60. And you KNOW, don't you, that when he said that about your "being a lesbian," he was
picturing you geting down to it with another woman, and being aroused by said 30-second fantasy.

If you could read his mind, that's what you'd have seen, though the freeper twerp would never admit it in 100 years. But that doesn't change it from being the truth.
