Did you keep the lighter, Sean?

I thought about it, but it would have meant turning around and walking back toward him instead of ignoring him, which he may have taken as a sign of aggression. I decided to purchase a lighter somewhere else.

Wow. billytea's ex-in-laws are way worse than the crazy roommate who stopped speaking to me because his friends told him I was telling them stories about him that were "character assassination."

Y'know, I'm not so sure I win that crap-off. (Now there's a very different Karate Kid.) That guy is not right in the head.

Sean's story reminds me of the time my GF and I were walking in our neighborhood. We were about to walk across a driveway at a gas station but a truck was coming so we stopped. The truck then stopped for us to cross. We crossed. The driver then yelled out, "YOU'RE WELCOME!" GF responded, "Well, it is CA law to stop for pedestrians." Dude lost it. Flipped the fuck out. Starts following us down the street (him in truck, us on foot on sidewalk) and yelling stuff like, "LOSE WEIGHT, FATTY!" and "GET A BOOB JOB!" I'm trying to ignore and telling GF not to respond. We stop at a light to cross and the Idiot is still screaming all kinds of offensive shit. Finally I scream out, "SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH!" Then the light turned and the guy finally drove off. GF still likes to quote me on that one. Moral: There are crazy fuckers in the world.

Teppy's roomate needed a visit from Matty the Mechanic.

What makes your average dressed to kill, Saab-driving transvestite rob a gas station?

We had a strange one like this in my little university town last week. The story starts five years ago, when the local newspaper gave a 16 year old girl a weekly "Fresh Voices" column. For five years she wrote intelligent, insightful, touching columns about being a teenager, and later, a college student. It was very impressive work.

Last week she walked into a local bank and robbed it. She escaped before the police arrived. The security camera caught her face and, despite her attemps to disguise herself, everyone in town recognized her, because her picture had been published next to her column for years. It's very confusing to everyone.

Hi there everybody. Been busy, been out of town, nice to be back.

Okay, here's my story: Like msbelle, he cheated on me. With my close friend and next door neighbor. I wanted vengeance for a while, but even in my deepest hatred for him, I couldn't characterize him as evil. He was just weak-willed and cowardly.

I suppose there are the myriad bad drivers in Los Angeles who do things like almost hit me when I have the right of way, then turn and give me dirty looks, shouty faces, and/or the finger like it was my fault they suck.

Any and all of those people can have vengeance wreaked upon them, as far as I'm concerned.

ETA Those don't make for good "hit him in the package with a hammer" stories, though. I shall ponder more. Surely someone who has crossed me deserves vengeance...

Like the guy who sped up and swerved to try and hit DH and Owen who were crossing a crosswalk and then physically attacked him last year. Fucking assholes deserve severe vengence.

bad drivers in LA? Dude, you have a low threshhold for vengeance.
