TM Prompt 232: Unkindness of Strangers

May 29, 2008 10:42

Is there a situation where it's appropriate to be unkind?

Sure. When someone’s being a jackass, for one thing. Like for instance, the other day I was taking the subway and I needed to recharge my Metro card. There were these two drunk women (and it was like three in the afternoon) who were taking forever to recharge their cards. Specifically, they were using nickels and dimes, which they barely had the mental capacity/sobriety to stick in the right slot. There was a huge line. One of them bent over to get a penny she dropped and the whole line got a lovely view of her ass because her Seven jeans were too big. I don’t care who you are or how cute you think your ass is (or how cute it may actually be), I don’t want to see it when I’m trying to fucking get home after a twelve-hour shift.

So some loud lady yelled, “Nice asscrack, bitches! Now hurry the fuck up!”

See that? Totally acceptable.
