Perhaps you could drag it across your chin once in a while, too?

With regards to the manners thang: I tripped walking down the stairs at the 930 last Sun night in my "skinny white hooka" shoes, and some poor woman coming up the stairs said "Hey, I'm so sorry" thinking SHE'D tripped me. No wonder we love 930.  It's a small microclimate we're not seeing elsewhere in our lives...

Except for the guy who crack the beer bottle over my forehead at the Cracker show.

I love the 930, the staph, etc. However, it's not always the case with the patrons and their [lack of] manners.

Ever notice that Rhett and his wife seem to have a lot of problems with people?
 
 I wonder if it will ever occur to them that the problem may not lie with the "other" people?

We probably have no more problems with other people than anybody else. It's just that other people generally don't post it for discussions on chatboards.
 
 They tell it to their friends, and get deserved sympathy from their friends.
 
 Which is what I guess I should have done in the first place.

Maybe we can take an informal poll.
 
 We know that you have been accosted by a short fat woman on the escalator on the Metro.  A Latin man attacked your wife on the street in Adams Morgan.  A vicious mime attempted to molest your wife on the streets of Paris.  Thankfully, you rescued her with your superior spitting skills.  The mattress store man refused to give you your free pillow.  You were randomly and unprovokedly hit over the head with a bottle at the Cracker show.
 
 I know I'm missing a few others.
 
 I would like to see a show of hands from all the people who have suffered a similar quantity of events such as these.

Or, they get over it and move on with their lives.

Yes, you are right. My wife got her deserved sympathy from me, and got over it.
 
 I just thought it would make for an interesting board topic. Lord knows there's been a dearth of them lately.

or they just complain about it more often.

I would hardly call a Latin guy saying "Hi Mommy, Hi Baby" to my wife an "attack".
 
 Nor does being refused a free pillow hardly qualify as a problem.
 
 I would venture to say that you don't have any problems with people because people generally tend not to start trouble with tall, ugly badass motherfuckers like yourself.

Maybe she was just a distraction so somebody else could rob you.  Check to see if you have all of your belongings.
