It's all you can do, dear. Been there, done that, so to speak. Lots of bite marks on my tongue, too...as do you, no doubt.

Still illegal to shoot the bastards though, dammit! ;)

Actually, I’ve found that silence can sometimes knock a little sense into their heads.

There’s an old saying about dignity being a sign of reserve stength. It creates a little bit of wonder in the minds of those who need to ‘mouth off’ to make themselves feel valid - a sort of ‘subliminal message’ of a better way :-)
