She just left, she got very heated and angry with me. We were debating the state of the economy and the effects on minorities and she started spewing vile curse words and invective on Christmas Day.
Wow. Threw the Christmas cake on the ground. She's 35-years old, works in finance in Morristown, NJ and New York City.
I'm perplexed this holiday season. Now, I just want to stay home and just watch TV or something. Should I bring them over again?
Anyway, Merry Christmas.
I wondered if she was wearing her ‘gay’ apparel?
Our family never discusses politics on holidays. It’s just not classy. And most of us are Trumpers here. Plenty of other things to talk about on Christmas. It’s a shame about your cousin but as another poster said, she just voted herself off the island. Good riddance to her. It seems that the liberals are just so full of hate and intolerance that you are just as well.
Of course you should. Just be sure to videotape it next time. Might as well make some money off it.
Our immediate family isn't on the same page, but mainly libertarian to conservative. So, any political conversations are generally without incident, and certainly without any yelling or cussing.
Honestly, we tend not to talk politics during the holidays, like Christmas and Thanksgiving, although the Thanksgiving gathering immediately after a presidential election can be entertaining.
Too bad you don’t have it on video!
I think you’re making it up about her literally throwing the cake to the floor, just to spice up the humor in an already goofy situation.
Of course, some people only need one swig of Grandad’s ‘fortified’ Egg Nog to let their Inner Shrek come roaring out.
If you are not ‘just makin’ stuff up’, then my advice is to maintain your distance from her forevermore, or until she grows up. Something that doesn’t seem likely.
She is the angry and intolerant person that she claims to abhor. There will be no reasoning with her because she has become what she hates.
Let it go.
NO!
To paraphrase Andrew “Dice” Clay, socialising with leftists is like masturbating with a meat grinder...faintly amusing but mostly painful.
What did you say say that led to the outburst?
Lol... you win the thread
Take away the wine
Never eat, drink or discuss politics with insane liberals, including family members.
Never invite her over again. I learned a while ago that dna does not require me to hang out with people that despise me. Also, send her a bill for the Christmas cake.
we have to face the fact
that
there’s a lot of insanity going around in society these days
promoted by the leftist mass media and some of the commie-nazi type hard core leftist politicians
its an attempt (and a rather successful attempt, sadly)....
to outright brainwash the public (think: Jos. Goebbels’ Nazi Propaganda Ministry.. who was similarly successful)....
we can only hope that the mainstream American people.. as well as the more centrist or ‘conservative’ political core in this country....can find ways and means to neutralize the pernicious effects of this 24/7 brainwashing campaign
meanwhile, let’s hope your niece is smart enough to figure out what’s being done to her mind.... and that she will recover her senses.... and return to your family... in the New Year!
Your cousin sounds as though she has some psychological issues. Maybe this is just the current standard for virtue signaling. Sigh.
Your virtue signal is reading 5x5.
I’d say she sounds like an insufferable brat who owes GCP a cake and an apology.
You can pick your friends, but you can’t pick your family.
Though you’re sure as hell within your rights to tell the idiots among ‘em that they’re not welcome if they can’t behave like adults.
Perhaps, but make sure she brings the cake next time. Or make her bring two. One she can throw on the ground. The other you can smoosh in her face before she leaves.
Don't let the turkeys get you down. Have a Merry Christmas despite the grinches in the world.
I said that Republicans can gain with black voters and she started ranting.
