I'm sure this Balducci guy is a thug, but, I hate it when I get to those type of functions and somebody has left their junk on the seat and wandered off until just before the play starts. I think you should get there and sit there, or risk losing your seat.
I get the feeling there was a lot of "Fuhgedaboudit" being tossed around during this confrontation.
"You know, I'm going to start thanking
the woman who cleans the restroom in
the building I work in. I'm going to start
thinking of her as a human being"
Absolutely. When I go to a function and I want a good seat, I arrive early. If someone has gone and 'reserved' 15 seats for the whole family, I totally ignore it and sit where I want.
That's all I got when I googled the name ... don't know if it's the same one.
You've got that right. I just got back from picking up stocking stuffers and I couldn't believe the ugliness of a lot of the people out there. The salespeople were all very pleasant and polite, but many of the customers were angry and aggressive. I wish people would just relax. The world isn't going to come to an end if little Johnny doesn't get the video game that he wants.
I think this falls under the "move your meat, lose your seat" column.
(BTW...according to the account, the woman, AND her mother AND her daughter left to check on hubby. Why? Was she going to get lost without her entourage?)

You don't have kids do you...? LOL
I remember this guy from the MTV show. He threatened to gut the limo driver like cattle, and hinted that he was mobbed up.
Ah yes..."hair hurt."
Usually associated with wearing your hair up in a too-tight ponytail. I'm talking tight, as in, "there's no need to see the plastic surgeon 'cause my face is pulled WAAAAY back already" tight.
When you take your hair out after being in that condition all day, the sensation you get is "hair hurt," and son of a gun...your hair really does hurt!
This sensation can also be brought on by the hairpulling usually associated with a "girl fight."

No it looks like she went to check on hubby who was parking the car with grandma and babe.
If you go, sit down, and want to reserve the seat next to you for your kid or husband, or whatever, O.K. If you go to a seat, put some junk on it to reserve them, and then take off, you're subject to eviction.
Now, parking spots are a different story. I went to a women's fast-pitch softball tournament that my daughter was playing in. There were many teams there. There was a roped-off area for parking. Acres, we're talking. In the closest area to park was a parking spot with a folding chair in it. I got out and grabbed the chair. This lit up a bunch of people nearby, all women as far as I noticed, who started yelling at me. Turns out that they were reserving that parking spot for a friend of theirs who had yet to show. I looked them over, folded up the chair, carefully put it on the other side of the rope, said something along the lines of, "sorry, you can't reserve parking", and stepped aside as my wife parked the van. The key here is to blow off any criticism, regardless of profanities, obscenities, etc.
Actually, I do. But I do most of my shopping on-line and I do it early.
Ugh! That's this guy?
Nevermind what I said before. He's a thug.
Regards,
Yeah, I'm wondering about that. What, the father can't park the van and find them without 3 women checking up on him? Bet he loves that.
Oh, OK....'cause at first it sounded like she AND grandma left the seats. That would have been silly.
Besides, now that I know who the other guy is, I've had to change my position -- I wouldn't believe a word that guy said.
