Hanky Stomping Liberal???

[WoodrowFan]

A couple of days ago I posted a note about some idiot who sent an Ann Coulter article to my work address. I did a "reply all" and said that I wasn't interested in her hateful RW fascistic crap and to drop me off her list/

Well, the original sender sent me an offended note whining that she has a right to her opinion too (as if I was trying to censor her!) What's even funnier is that the other RW bozos on her list keep sending me notes saying "you're not on my list." I guess they're to bleeping STUPID to see that they were CC'd and that I was replying to someone else! LOL.

One question tho, one loser called me a "Hanky stomping liberal." OK, what the heck is a hanky stomper, some weird new country music dance?? LOL

1. Well in the gay leather culture, they use hanky in the pocket...

codes, but you would have to reply and inquire which pocket and what color of hanky. Then again, best to just let it pass.

Honestly, I have never heard that term.

2. Here's a scenario to consider

Replyest thou thusly:

Hanky stomping liberal?

Hanky stomping???

What is that, some kind of new gay code?

Sorry, but I'm straight. But thanks for asking!

It's a good tactic. You don't have to trash gay people, but at the same time, you can work the fool's homophobia for shits and giggles and some major anxiety attacks on his part.

I've used it before; it works like a charm.

Good luck, whatever you decide to do!

3. Before you jump on the other RW bozos...

...you did hit 'reply all'. Which means that you spammed the same bunch of people she did and doubled the annoyance for everyone else who feels like you did - I'm not sure you have much moral high ground for bozo-calling. They probably assumed you had a reason for sending them mail, and didn't bother to check the address boxes. (Sorry if I sound harsh, but I HATE reply-all misuse!)

4. you make a valid point.

but what's a hanky stomper?

5. My guess

is that it refers to how a person who is really mad - throwing a tantrum - will take a hat or whatever they have in their hand, throw it down, and stomp it, Yosemite Sam style. A person who is a crybaby or a whiner would naturally be holding a hankerchief, because they are frequently sniveling. So, my guess is that he's calling you a tantrum-throwing whiner. Clearly, he has earned a brutal and public humiliation at your hands!

As an aside, I just noticed how you said that you told the first person to take you off their RW fascistic list, and lots of people wrote back to say that you weren't on their list. Does this mean that large numbers of your coworkers all have e-mail lists for RW crap? Where do you work - Hell?

6. "Where do you work - Hell?" LOL

I'd NEVER get any work done in an environment like that. :smoke:

7. no,

nope. For all its problems Kerry will carry my workplace by an overwhelming margin, maybe 4-1 or better. I was refering to other folks on the original senders list. None were from my workplace. Heck, I don't even KNOW them! I still don't know how I ended up on the original list to begin with.
