16. Your left/right brain verbal talents make a case for snark attacks
Edited on Tue Jun-14-05 10:00 AM by omega minimo
quite poignantly........................................

There are ways and there are ways. We can make our points without attacking people in public, which ends up looking an awful lot like the aggressive obnoxiousness of the Dittoheads.

What do we know about these people? They are drugged with luxury and deluded with denial.

And what if her brother/sister/mother/cousin/uncle was killed or maimed in BushWar I or II?

Maybe dad was in Korea or Viet Nam; maybe she's a recovering army brat and THIS CLOSE TO FREAKING OUT AS IT IS.

We can reinforce the cliches of US against THEM. The McMansionites seem so un-Earthly and out-of-touch, we could also work toward another form of contact that will get them to SNAP OUT OF IT.

Maybe if we treat them like human beings, they'll start acting as if they ARE.

:evilgrin:

note: she was human enough to THANK YOU. Next time she'll probably think, "Fuxx this sucker-- probably a Democrat."
