Wife told me today that I am an abrasive person..Actually said I gotta be a little more patient/tolerant and quit bein such a small puncture wound to people.......
She just don't get it.....
 

She gotem in a wad today cause I took a guy's cigarette outta his mouth and stepped on it...... I was pretty impressed with myself.I said excuse me twice and warned him once then just stepped on the cigarette instead of slapping him upside the head....... Guess that's where my dogs get their habits from.... We's the nicest, most generous things in the world til you get us in a corner or get in our space.....
 
How long you been married? What do you currently have in
common? What do you do together? When is the last time you
held hands when walking from your vehicle to the shopping
center? When is the last time you did something together?

When is the last time you had dinner by candle light with mood
music in the back ground? When is the last time you walked into
the grocery store and went up to the fresh flowers and bought
her a dozen roses? When is the last time you were in the grocery
store and pulled her up against you and planted a "serious" kiss
on her right in front of the "have nots" that were in viewing
distance?

I practice what I preach and I am 70, she's 69.

Wellllllllllllllllllllllllll
 
Be careful. Last wife (#3) told me that twenty four years ago about her son. Never stopped calling me a SOOB . Course he never had a paying job and lived on the handouts from us.and others Finally had to dump them both two years ago. Now I usually smile and talk quietly when I am telling someone to go to or stick it. Bother the daylites out of those who can't hear what you are talking about with that big old grin on my face.
 
You just need to use those SUPER people skills to change her mind. LMAO How long has it been before this shocking thing became noticeable to her???

I have found as I get older I too am accused of being a pain in the a$$. It just seems that everyone else is getting stupider. I just HAVE to offer my corrections for the good of us all. It is a tough job but someone has to do it. LOL


Another take on this: A good friend says as we get older our BS filter gets full and we can't handle any more BS.
 
If it was on your property or rented land, I see no
reason to change the tactics, You were reasonable
and that person saw fit to deny your kind request.
If it was not that situation, then Splane it to me.

We were out doing something together today when the subject came up... She ain't the problem... it's other folks that just don't have good manners that gets to me.... If you wanna talk romantic... picked out a song and put it on her desktop so's she can play it and think about me....

We were at the local wildlife park with the grandkids and I had one on my shoulders showing him the Lynx at a place when tghe guy came and crowded in with his cigarette.. smoke was going in the kid's face and the guy knew it... Normal person mighta just moved outta his way, but I ain't normal..........
 
See you where just correcting his stupidity. I told you it is a hard job but they really need us old guys to correct them. LOL
 
Did you ask her why she didn't marry one of those sensitive enoch instead of you, if that is something that is important to her? My wife has mentioned that as a possibility, but, I have to let her know that those sensitive men have boyfriends.
 
Reminds me of the time a guy almost hit me in the rear, I had signaled all the way down the hill and had to stop for a left turn, when I could go he flipped me off,I chased him down and then he did something really dumb, he pulled over. At the rear of his car I was pointing out that his hand jesters were going to get him in trouble, about that time he told me I had to expect that from a young guy,(20s) when I hit him in the nose I told him to expect that from an old fart.(40s)

Dave I know your not a German, but you sure act like one sometimes. LOL.
I lived in Germany for 6 years and married one to boot. We left in 1988, and she can't even stand to be back home for more than 2 weeks. she says the Germans are rude, ungrateful people.

sorry to spoil your rant :lol:
 
That guy needed a lesson in manners.Smoke in a kids face is not a
good idea.

Alright, I gotta come clean on one. I was going south to the next county to take care of a ticket I had got for an inspection sticker (17 hours past due) so I was in a mood anyway... I signalled and checked myself clear to change lanes and saw a guy flying up the far lane. I made my lane change a heard his horn. Apparently he had changed lanes. I weaved back into mine and that was when he decided to get on my bumper, birds aflyin'. I let him follow me for a while til I decided to stop and see what he wanted. It turned out he didn't want anything at all. Nope wouldn't even roll down his window. He tried to backup but there was a truck stuck behind him. He tried to change lanes but traffic was too heavy. I stood there at his door waiting. I felt bad for the guy cause he had his wife and kid in the car. I never said anything just indicated for him to roll his window down several times. I let him sweat for a while before I walked off. I wonder when he is gonna pull that stunt again. Bet he keeps that finger to hisself.

See Dave? You aren't the only "abrasive" person 'round here. Just takes a bunch to get'ter in gear.

i havent read anything that was abrasive. i have gotten this way. just tired of societys crap. righteuos,whine bags....how many people have seen the movie "falling down" with mike douglas? my dad didnt watch movies but he liked that one !
 
Hey Dave, you did the same thing I would have done. Granted there's no reason to be an "a$$hole right off the bat, and you can usually catch more flies with honey than with $hit but........ At the same time there's no reason not to be the biggest a$$hole in the room when the ones that THINK they are eat all of the honey and then come back just begging for more. When the honey runs out $hit is all that's left so no reason not to pile it deep and let them see how it feels for a change........ Most don't know how to respond when someone does this because way too many people in this world have been either taught, or maybe I should call it conditioned, to be so worried about being PC and/or non-confrontational that they don't know how to stand up for themselves. They'd rather let others walk all over them than to do anything that might upset the a$$hole causing the problem.

Wife tells me all the time that I'm an insensitive a$$hole, and I freely admit to it too. 99.999999999% of the time I'm the nicest guy you'd ever want to meet, but when the need arises I can go from nice to a$$hole in about .2 seconds, especially when my families health, well being, etc, etc are concerned. Got put in that situation several years ago and wound up getting out of the car in traffic to teach a young punk that he wasn't as great as the thought he was. After bumping me with his car twice, and me still not moving, he started mouthing off at me. Thankfully security finally showed up to do their job, before he either bumped me again, or said anything else. As it was he was about .2 seconds from Mr nice guy going away and him being drug out of his car and put on the ground, and embarrassed in front of his girlfriend by this 'old man'.

So, congradulations for doing what too many wouldn't even think to do and teaching the guy a lesson. maybe he learned something, maybe not, but I guarantee you the next time someone says something to him, wether he does anything about it or not, he'll at least think about what you did do.
 
Guy I used to work with left our shop one morning back in the sixties. He was driving one of the old cab forward econolines. Leo never got in much of a rush, and I might surmise he never had a ticket or accident. Some woman came flying up on his bumper just before he hit the local town. Light changed, Leo stopped. Green light, he didn't have time to let his foot off the brake and her horn started blaring. Leo went on ahead about 1/2 mile, and the next light turned yellow. He stopped, his tailgunner still on his bumper. Green light, BLEEP! He was starting to get annoyed. About 1/4 of a mile later, another light, same thing. There was only one more light in town- this time he intentionally plugged along until it changed to red. He kicked his truck out of gear, set the parking brake, and waited for the horn. The light turned green, and sure enough, the b!tch in her Caddy laid on the horn again. Leo undid his seat belt, climbed out of the truck, and started toward her. She very quickly rolled her window up, and started to get that deer in the headlight look. She was in a hurry, and no telephone man should get in her way! Good ol' Leo walked in front of her car, reached over, and popped the hood up. He then calmly climbed back into his truck, and drove on thru what was now a stale green light. Of course, the light changed red about 10 seconds later, and her hood was still in the air as he went over the hill about 1/2 mile past that. He never heard any more except some stories of a couple of people behind her ( he lived in town), who turned him into a legend and folk hero.

Footnote: Leo Dillon Wallet passed away earlier this month. RIP Old Friend.
 
Did she actually say "MORE patient/tolerant" More means additional so that assumes you were patient/tolerant beforehand.
 
Saw a good one in Dallas one night. Had a car beside me.When some idiot with his truck ten feet in the air. Runs up on the car beside me blowing his horn and flashing his lights. So I backed off to let the nut pass. When he passed he returned to the lane he was in.Almost took the front end off of the car.Next thing I saw was red and blue lights come on. The car the nut tried to take out was an unmarked Dallas Police car. Told my wife. I sure wish I could have been there while the ticket was given out.
 
Dave your people skills have improved so much that even us Pennsytuckians are proud to have your home state as a neighbor, just a shame we have to share it with West Virgina not that they are bad people.. good shine state. Guess they like good folks too.
