So, while I was working tonight, this bitch from the hills was sitting in the parking lot playing that fucking "Redneck Woman" song over and over, for like an hour and a half. Every time I went out to my car, or got back from a run, I had to hear that stupid song. And I hate that song, the fucking thing glorifies so much of what I hate about White Trash America.
So, being in a grumpy mood already, as it had been a long slow night filled with rude customers and small tips, I finally walked over to her parked car and said, "That song sucks, and by the way, you really are white trash." Granted, it was mean, but not untrue. Her friend laughed about it.
When I get home tonight, I tell Jessica about the event, and she gets all mad at me for being so mean. I dunno, I think that being a really nice guy ninety percent of the time or so, it throws her off when I do something that doesn't exactly fit in with that.
But that's the thing. About ninety percent of the time I'm a really nice guy BECAUSE I WANT TO BE. So, when I dont want to be nice I'm just not. And, if there is one deepseated prejudice I have, it is against ugly truck driving, rebel flag waving, bible thumping, redneck white trash. I just litterally loathe white trash. Can't help it, I hate them.
So, should I censor myself, just because it isn't nice to tell a bitch, who is listening to a song and singing along badly at the top of her lungs, a song which says "You may think I'm trashy, but I dont give a rip", that she is white trash and her music blows?
Now, Jessica likes that song, but I've already explained to her that it wasn't just that she was listening to that song. It was that she was listening to it for an hour and a half, and it wasn't just the song, it was American flag bumpsticker on the Jeep Cherokee with big tires for "muddin", and the jesus fish, and the trailer park clothes and the bad teeth...
I dunno, but when I came in from smoking I found my pillows on the couch. Looks like its gonna be a sucky night for me.
I really dont want her mad at me, it hurts when she's angry, but I don't think I'm so wrong about this one. Yeah, it was mean to say, but I don't neccessarily think it is a horrible thing to be mean sometimes. In fact, I think part of the problem with this country is we are all too fucking nice to each other in a PC sort of way, without really meaning it. We don't tell people the truth when something they do disturbs, bothers, or otherwise offends us... So then, instead of societal pressure to conform to some degree of etiquette, resentment builds up until some kind of jackass tries to pass a law. Like the Louisianna State bill against lowrider jeans... All that could be prevented if, instead of not saying anything, people just walked up and said, "Excuse me ma'am, but your underwear and ass crack are showing, and it makes you look like a whore." Personally, I have zero problem with scantily clad females, and don't have a problem with whores either... but, I digress and I think you get my point.
