Minus 10 Points

E-mail

Culture - American

So we went to see a show last night and while the entertainment was good, hanging out with my brother was growing old. Just about this time I see this cute little thing eyeballing me from the bar. So I muster up some courage and slide up next to her. She was rather easy to talk to and quite pleasent I might add. We spent the better half of the evening talking and dancing and ignoring her fat friend. Then out of the blue, out of left field she pulls a pack of cigerettes out of her purse and lights one up.. The nerve of this girl.. anyways,

On a scale of 1 -10 that's minus 10 points...

PETTY
written by Clifford Scott Carson , August 23, 2009

"and her fat friend" ??, that's petty. What are you, a hillbilly with no sophistication? That's sort of a chicken shit thing to say. Why even throw it in there? Maybe the fat friend is loyal? A person can work on fat, harder to work on stupid. Fat you can fix, stupid is forever.

I do agree with you on the cigarettes though. It's a major DEAL BREAKER!

Just makes you sound like . . . .
written by Clifford Scott Carson , August 23, 2009

Nope, just makes you sound like a hillbilly. How much do you weigh? And I can probably guess that at one time or another you smoked cigarettes too, where as I have NEVER smoked a cigarette in my entire life. I took one puff off one when I was a kid and choked my head off, thought I was going to die. My eyes watered, my throat was on fire, etc. I don't even want a smoker in my house.

"until I slid up there", that's snake language.

Why R U such an ass?
written by John Doe , August 23, 2009

Off of one paragraph I'm a hillbilly? And a snake? You are such a pretentious snob... Let me re-word my article for the assholes out there..

So we went to see a show last night and while the entertainment was good, hanging out with my brother was growing old. Just about this time I see this cute little thing eyeballing me from the bar. So I muster up some courage and PULL A BAR STOOL up next to her. She was rather easy to talk to and quite pleasant I might add. We spent the better half of the evening talking and dancing and ignoring her HEFTY friend THAT WAS GETTING PLENTY OF ATTENTION FROM HER MAN. Then out of the blue, out of left field she pulls a pack of cigarettes out of her purse and lights one up.. The nerve of this girl.. anyways,

written by John Doe , August 23, 2009

Thanks for ruining the story... I spent all of 5 min typing this paragraph up just to be graded and degraded on grammar. You may have helped launch this site but your one of the reasons I don't like posting here...

You kissed an ashtray
written by Clifford Scott Carson , August 24, 2009

I didn't ruin your little story. The chick you were hitting on who dug in her purse for a pack of cigarettes did. THAT'S who ruined it. What did you want me to say? Awww, poor guy, hitting on some cheap chick in a bar and then being stuck kissing an ashtray for your troubles? What did you want, sympathy for that? It's a bar dude, it's in GEORGIA, right? And they smoke in bars in Georgia, that's what they do. Now if you were out here in California, smoking is outlawed in practically every environment. You can't smoke at the beach, outside patio restaurants, clubs, airport, 6 Flags . . . on and on. Moral of the story, you take you chances whomever you hit on in a bar.

WTF?...
written by John Doe , August 24, 2009

Where in my story did I mention that I kissed anybody? Particularly the ash tray? Let me read it again and see if I missed something... one sec.. hold on almost done... we're getting there just bear with me for a moment.. and done.. ok.. Nope, I was there and no kissing took place, so I know I didn't write about it...

Do you do nothing but write in a drunken state of haze? Because if you don't realize how you screwed up my post you need to re-read all your posted comments..

I apologize
written by Clifford Scott Carson , August 24, 2009

Exactly how did I screw up your post John Doe? Do you mean you were going some place with it? Are you saying there's a part 2 of you hitting on some chick at the bar? That the saga continues? Oh, I apologize, I didn't know there was a part 2 of a continuing saga? Quite frankly, the original post didn't read that way. Oh, these nighttime dramas. Please continue. You're free to pick up with the story anywhere you want. The part about you "kissing an ashtray" is just what I threw in, because let's face it, whenever you do kiss a smoker that's exactly what it feels like. Okay, so she reached into her bag and pulled out a carton of Camel cigarettes, or a pack or what ever it was? She lit up a cigarette and you deducted 10 brownie points from your score card. What did she do next, did she offer you a cigarette?? Did you take one? Did she work at not letting her smoke travel in your face while talking to her? Are you going to see her again? Did she write her number down on the backside of a matchbook cover and give it to you before she left? When's the wedding?

Cliff can't help but to be a prick..
written by John Doe , August 24, 2009

It's in his nature.. He can't help. Grade and degrade on word choice and grammar one day and act like nothing happened the next.. An amazing feet of short memory. No one cares about this post anymore, if they ever did.. This is the last I will respond to your garbage on it too..

P.S I left. No number, no good bye, no nothing. I waited for her to start talking to her friend a bit and I just got up and left. Went to the bathroom then back to my table and we left a short time later... Once you hit ZERO I'm pretty much done with you.. Distant and cold hearted I know.. But that's just the way I am... Not to say that I wasn't disappointed..

John Do-do can't HACK it
written by Clifford Scott Carson , August 24, 2009

What's the matter John Doe, can't cha handle it? What? Did I call you out and you can't hack it? Well, that's to be expected JOHN DOE. At least I've got the GUTS to use my REAL name on this site and stand by my name and not hide behind some pseudonym log on time. You know, come to think of it, last I checked, this site was called OPINIONATED THOUGHT. I took that to mean, opinions are encouraged. They are welcomed. I contributed, I gave my opinion. You can't handle it. In short, you lose at debate and NOW it appears that there was never a PART 2 to your story. It stood as it was. A little paragraph that insulted fat people and razed a women for pulling out a cigarette and smoking in your presence. Not much to that story. YOU, for some reason, chose to write about it. Now you're all upset because you didn't get the response you wanted. NOW EVERYBODY, all together, can I hear a collective, "AAAaaawwwwww". Feel better? Does that provide you with the camaraderie or sympathy you were hoping for. I aim to please. I'm a trained professional. OR PERHAPS, your post was written for some other reason???

FACT IS JOHN DOE, You can't hang with me. You're not solid enough. You're accusation that I ruined your story proved to be a false one, because of your own admission, nothing happened after the woman lit up the cigarette at the bar. You walked away after that. End of story. So exactly HOW did I ruin this story of yours? There wasn't anything to it. As for you calling me a prick? It takes one to know one. I'm not a prick, I'm just smarter than you. But so as to not leave on a completely down note I have a moral for you John Doe, if you can't keep up with the big boys, stay out of the deep end, because you just proved to everybody you're in way over your head.

Have a nice day Johnny

Ha ha! Too funny
written by Clifford Scott Carson , August 24, 2009

"it don't mean", oh man, that is too funny. Heather, this isn't your day to teach that lesson.

I'm not belittling or downgrading anyone. Just voicing my opinionated thought. That's what the site is called isn't it? Last time I checked anyway. You know, like everyone, I'm entitled to my opinion and ALL THE REASONS BEHIND IT.

Now Heather, maybe you should get your panties out of that bunch. Might do you good.

Have a nice day sweetie

Can't We All Just Get Along?
written by Decorus Angelus , August 25, 2009

In stating one's opinion we are all guilty of belittling and down grading. We all have opinions that is a fact. We all have a voice that is a fact. We all desire to express our opinions and have our voice heard. That is a fact. We are ALL guilty of down grading and belittling others in voicing our opinions and using our words. We ALL need to just stop and quit pointing the finger at everyone else and look within ourselves at what we are doing. Change starts from within ourselves not from trying to change others.

Getting along...
written by Decorus Angelus , August 26, 2009

Yes, we all put others down. I'm not gonna sit here and point fingers and give life to this when it's clearly not worth breathing life into. It's as simple as that. Anyone can sit and criticize another for anything under the sun. It takes strength of character to just turn the other cheek and walk away not to mention it's just a whole lot easier, brings much more inner peace and satisfaction and is far more worth the time to just tell oneself " okay..whatever.." acceptance of others is a wonderful and amazing thing. Some things in life just aren't worth the time we put into them. For me, arguing about petty things like wordage, points of view and who's the better person for this that or the other just isn't all that important to me. I'm on one individual's side and one only..mine. Thank you for your input , it is greatly appreciated!
