Wow I must be a real [bleep]. I've been in a few. And I've always thought of myself as an agreeable, happy guy. I even have a strict policy about being an [bleep]--I only behave like one when absolutely necessary.

Before I draw my CCW, I'll need to wear out the aluminum cane I carry with the 3 inches of solid lead poured into the end of it first. Having a crippled leg from a motorcycle accident lets me carry a club without attracting too much attention. It's a real attitude adjuster when it's applied vigorously to shins, kneecaps and elbows, not to mention collarbones and skulls.

I just remembered my last verbal altercations .

I told Steelhead he would be crawling back to his car if he didnt keep his word on a gun trade. He complied.

Then a couple sub contractors tried to do chitty work and I called them out. One just left quietly ( his boss sent back an actual professional ). The other one STFU and did it right.

In public ICGAF. They just don't matter. When I worked I was a damn firm manager as my worth was measured by my reports worth. And my worth to them was to develop them to replace me. Over a few decades my reports never whined (majority engineers) and got me and my bluntness. Most have succeeded. Really what I miss since retiring...

I remember how much more polite and non-aggressive I became once I started carrying handguns at age 19.

Its all about what kind of folks you have to or do mix with. Unless of course your the problem. I learned a while back to slow down and take a deep breath when stupid people get on my nerves. If I do get into a tug of war I just let go of the rope. And they just fall on their azz.

Don't get me started on contractors. I hold them in the same regard I hold lawyers and used car salesmen.

Seems like a few of my verbal altercations revolve around tenants.

People don't seem to understand boundaries and when the F with my things, I get a bit perturbed.

Best might have been when I yelled at a tenant that if her dog ever barked at or harassed my calves again and her worthless 16 year old son just sat there and watched it that I would gut her dog right in front of both of them with my pocket knife. They got the picture.

The "I carry so can't argue" statements are a bit perplexing.

go to our local Wally World and you'll see why....MethHead and Welfare Check Cashing Central....

its also a preferred place for the local unemployed to show off their most recent tattoos at....

show up in a clean T shirt, jeans and hiking shoes, and recently had a bath and a shave....you are on the best dressed list...

if you have a job, you are in the minority....

Ha! Reminds me of one of my favorite running cadences. it would go like this:

" Big Jim Conrad is a helluva man

runnin' through the jungle with his junk in his hand.

Born in the backwoods, raised by a bear

Cast iron balls and three coats of hair."

If we were in person we could have a verbal altercation!!

Sadly, I don't argue in online. It's too much like pissing into the wind...
