Freeper in H&R Block on Terri Shiavo |
|
Had to pass this on. Was in H&R Block Thursday and had just sat down with my tax lady (very nice lady, she does them every year) Some woman sat down right behind me with her tax person at the same time. The other customer was 40-something and very tan with the leathery look people get when they've been tanning themselves for several decades. She started railing on Terri Shiavo to her tax person (Terri had died that morning) and repeating IN A VERY LOUD VOICE every RW lie, that she could recover with therapy, her husband had caused her injury, etc., etc. It sounded like Faux. Finally I couldn't stand anymore and turned around and said, ALSO IN A LOUD VOICE, "do you realize that absolutely nothing you said is true?"
The woman sputtered and starting screeching over and over "it is true, it is true, it is true!" I just waved my hand at here with my best Dogbert 'feh' wave and turned around to my tax lady, apologized and went about my business. The freeper woman did shut up though to her tax person.
Afterwards I apologized to my tax lady and asked her to please pass my apologies to her coworker if I made her uncomfortable or if I had made her job less easy. My tax lady said no problem. (whew)
OK, had to tell that. Felt good not to bottle it up while I was sitting there. My refund will feel good too!

2. If she had been listening to the radio |
|
in 1939, she would have believed that Martians invaded New Jersey. The right wing punditry knows this.

I had never thought of it exactly in those terms, but absolutely correct.

"If we had Star Wars this wouldn't have happened. It's Clinton's fault"
...
"Damn Liberal Seti Program!"

4. Freepers think that everyone thinks like they do. |
|
That's why the tan lady went off on a rude rant in a tax office. You did good by standing up to her. Maybe next time she will think before she opens her mouth in a public place.

bigots. They are absolutely flabbergasted when anyone disagrees with them (probably the reason for the screeching).

8. Did she put her fingers in her ears and go |
|
"lalalalalalalalala-I CAN'T HEAR YOU-lalalalalalalalalala"?
Upon further thought, putting her fingers in her ears would have caused her head to explode,(like the martians in the movie "Mars Attacks!") which would have been a GOOD thing. (except for the mess, of course)
