I'm fuming a little because someone I don't know (and have never met) is "calling me out" in the comment section on my friend's Wall on facebook. I responded to something my friend said, and this person is, well...calling me a liar.
Sigh.
I keep hearing about "the current political environment", how it's hostile, how it's rude, uncivil, etc. But can I say (without someone calling me out? just for a little bit?) that I don't think it's the political environment. I think it's the
environment, period.
A week before Christmas, I had an angry tailgater follow me home. I was
scared. No one was at my house, it was late enough that I wasn't sure I wanted to call my neighbor for help, so I pulled into another neighborhood. You know. I didn't want to lead this guy to my house.
And it was fifteen degrees, and it was dark, and my phone was about to die (unusually). I huddled, shivering, in some stranger's driveway waiting for some other stranger to drive away.
And it's not the first time I've been harassed by road-ragers. *I drive the speed limit.*
So, can I vent and ask: What in the world is wrong with people?! Who does that?!
Please and thank you. Yes, ma'am. After you. Can I give you a hand?
Or, "What can I do to put you in your place, which is below me, (naturally)"?
I tell you...RECLUSE. That's my future. Lots of dogs.
