I think it's funny that you use the word "honey" truly as a term of endearment, whereas if I call someone "honey" it's usually severely sarcastic, and because I'm refraining (at that moment) from using vulgarity..
I've never argued my way out of anything, or talked down a jerk, or fought back against injustice...there was a really embarrassing time when a drunk guy insulted my brother, and I was so pissed off, but all I could do was cry. My sister-in-law (other brother's wife) was the one to stand up to the guy, and I always wished I could be that awesome...
That's why I really like your stories about getting back at bad customer service reps or standing up for your rights, because I'm proud to know someone who can do stuff like that :) Which is why I'm sure you will get through your current crisis fine, although I know it's causing you a lot of stress :/ (I need to get international calling enabled on my phone so I can call you...)
He is so funny. Have a good day the both of you!

LOL :)
ReplyDeleteI think that's because you know how to fight, and I don't :>
I like to think of it as aggressive repartee.
