You're hanging out on Youtube when a hater comes your way. Starts to call you awful names says your mother made his day. So will you leap to take the bait, call him a dumb retard? What if he knows just where you live and you become his credit card?

You're driving down the highway when he cuts into your lane Then blows the horn and flips you off. Your blood it boils your brain. Part of you wants to chase him down to have a closer talk. But, he might have a weapon and maybe you'd no longer walk.

‘Had? Why do you speak in the past tense?’

I’m confident they’ve completed K - 12 educational requirements...more or less.

When an adult gets their lunch money stolen, we call it a mugging.

My space is my space. Anybody who doesn’t understand that will be made to understand it in one or two tellings. The law is on my side; and so is my .45.
