Someone told me this today.

Kinda funny. I was at work today, getting one of the guys I work with to make me a new control panel for one of my cabs. This chick (bitch) asked me what it was.

(She's this headcase bitch and wider than she is tall.. probably because she's eating to fill a hole up in her soul, most likely caused by a man. ;) )

Anyways, I politely noted that it was for an arcade machine and that someone was being nice enough to do a high quality job for me. (My old temporary one was a piece of unpainted plywood so I could play it until it was fixed) She questions me about why do I have one and who would collect them. I explained that my hobby is video games and that I enjoy it... etc.. etc...

She goes into this long fucking diatribe about what's wrong with america and somehow my video game collecting and whatever is the reason for it. Ended with the above sentence. Completely offensive and ridiculous...

I get people saying stupid shit like that to me all the time.
They should just be taken out and shot in a field.
Sorry my game collection is worth more than most peoples car.

People who dont have a hobby will never understand. :mad_2:

With a headcase bitch like that, Ask her if SHE thinks shes getting "too Fat"..that'll mess her head up..,then if she says no..as she will.
Say,her overeating is what's wrong with this society today. :tickled:


(Don't you think your getting to fat?)

Well, she's obviously not a "body nazi," so I don't see what her problem with video games would be. What, exactly did you say back?

Had someone said that to me, I would have responded with:

"YOU'RE what's wrong with society."

or the classic:

"You're gay!"

I was at the mall talking about RPG's with a couple of guys a few years ago, and I recall saying "I oughta introduced so and so to (I forgot what game I was talking about)". But this old geezer who happened to hear us talking just cuz he stood nearby just butted in and said "No you need to introduce him to a good book". I was like "WTF....."

Well, video games arent all really the greatest things to do for mental stimulation.

And RPG's arent novels.

Exactly what i was thinkn'...who is she to comment ..she's no pearl herself. Of course, its always someone who is far from perfect that finds it easy to complain and dictate whats wrong w/ "the world".

that was funny. The other day I was walking home with my kid and this old lady asked me for the time. I told her I didn't have a watch and she said 'why don't men carry watches anymore?'

Yeah I can relate. I get the whole "You're what's wrong with society" rant whenever I'm amognst some seriously liberal fuckards {like half of my family is} who can't see the woods for the trees... thus when I actually state a firmly based opinion on something due to actually keeping up with current events, and/or decide to talk of "Spiritual Faith" vs. "Religion"... the shit hits the fan. Suddenly, someone with a backbone and ultimately who wants to think outside of the collective majority is the PROBLEM of today's society, when in fact it's really the other way around. People who keep silent and say nothing when something of importance should be voiced... getting others motivated do actually DO SOMETHING and get man's pulse back. But those lazy "Gimme, Gimme NIMBY" bastards think I'm the problem. :rolleyes:

...in your situation I'd have just told her... "Hey this is one of the few recreational hobbies I have and it sure as shit aint' hurting anybody. So tell me WOMAN WTF do you do for a hobby? Gorge yourself over issues you need to deal with and face the music. Afraid of building yourself into a damn near indestructible fighting machine ready to wage Spiritual Warfare against the duped and the further poliferators of deception? Are you ready to go toe to toe in the phsyical realm and possible kill another human being in 2.5 seconds if the decisive moment of truth fell upon you? Huh... Hey bitch I'm talking to you? Nah that's what the fuck I thought. So why don't you go find a hobby before I go find someone who's hobby is Harpooning Jaba the fuckin' Hut! Fuckin' Commie hand out taking TC."

I guarantee you that chick would've been like WTF? and stayed clear of you after that. Trust me, I do it all the time to people who get up in my face with shit. It works, and a couple of times I did tussle. Lost 3 of the 8 fights that was the aftermath of my respective spill... but them's the breaks and everybody takes a beatin' sometime.

I sometimes try not to wear a watch so people don't fucking constantly ask me the time. I've had a few people where they would ask me like every FIVE FUCKING MINUTES! I just rely on my cell phone to tell me time instead.

I really can't believe someone would be so ignorant as to say that, but then again i can. I just always ask people what they do for fun/what their hobbies are, to which they usually reply with some lame ass thing like "hanging out" or "partying" and some can't even come up with an answer, which i find to be quite sad. Most people fail to see that you can in fact have more then one hobby/interest. Ah well.

I agree with Shiro, it would have been great had you gave that bitch a kick to the face.

Well I shouldn't be your Hero, but that's cool if you want me to be. Just know I'll fail you sooner or later because I'm a falliable human being no different than the next, saved only by the sufficent grace of Jesus. Make Jesus your Hero, and you'll be better off. Even if I can be a bit militant in my executions, my focus is never far from him. ---Thus the response I gave as an example really isn't the best way to behave at all. But it's moment's like that I do tend to "Get into the Flesh" and say something that I know is so out there that the person is like WTF? or in the case of this chick she'd have listened to the whole spill but would've cried her eyes out afterwards, not so much about the weight thing but because of the verbal onslaught of psychological warfare that had been unleashed upon her. Thus with this post I should say the responsible thing and state, that is not the correct way to be at all. But it's fun to say if you really just have had enough of ppl's nonsense and want to get a bewildered shock out of them indeed. ---The woman in question was probably jilted by some T-SHIRT pretty boy or something, or an average guy who probably spent more time gaming than playing "Hide the sausage" with her. The fact that she would go off on someone for having gaming as a hobby indicates some prior trangression in her recent past that invovled someone with games.

The other side of that token, and probably the best response would be just to nod you head, and say something like. "I apologize for whomever hurt you in the past, or where gaming might have taken priority over a realtionship you were in or whatever. But I'm not him. If I'm waaaaay off then I apologize for that, but this is my hobby and it shouldn't offend you. You should probably find a good church or a celebrate recovery group. Anyhow I'm off to play my kiddie games since Men never really grow up. See ya."

...just thought I should at least post about the other side and more respective way of handling it though. I'm always stuck within the duality of doing the right thing or jumpin right "into the zone" with someone when I feel my blood begin to boil. I guess it's up to the respective person it's happening to when the situation presents itself.
