...the dirty little secrets that make you a horrible person:

For example:
I am a little prejudiced against obese people. And by a little I mean a lot.

I get very uncomfortable around retarded kids. I'm just not kosher with full-bodied hugs from anybody that's not my wife.

I try to stare out of the corner of my eye when I see somebody with a weird deformity. I want to be that guy that looks past that stuff and just sees the person inside. Nyeah, I'm not. I thinking "WTF" just like everybody else.

I want games to be injury-free, but when it's Notre-Dame vs USC, I want it quite a bit less.

I never say "yes" when the checker at the grocery store asks me if I want to donate a buck to some charity or another. I feel like I should just to make the cashier think I'm a good person.

I don't think anything mentioned so far makes someone a "horrible person." That's a pretty harsh indictment to me though.

When I went to OU, my roommates were Sigma Chi's and one of them was a high school friend of mine. He got really big headed at OU over his Greek affiliations, and so we naturally ended up on bad terms.

Flash forward to years later, and I hear he had to have a tumor removed from his spinal column, it was wrapped around his spinal cord like a snake I guess.

I guess he was at a wedding with some other friends of mine, and he was falling down all over the place and stumbling. He couldn't get into the back of a friends car, stuff like that.

Everybody thought he was just really drunk, but it was actually due to the spinal cancer.

When I heard that I thought it was quite an entertaining story. I'm rootin' for the cancer.

I think the "pregnant/expecting/new mother" parking spaces are ridiculous. I don't need to park close because I'm young and in good health so I shouldn't mind who does. But I don't consider pregnancy or parenthood to be a handicap. It's a self-inflicted result of your behavior. NO PARKING SPACE FOR YOU. While I'm busy covering for your a$$ at work for the next 9 years while Junior gets every virus in town or you just don't feel like coming in today so you can go to the store and park near the handicapped folks I won't like you very much. And I won't mind a bit if I decide I want a mental health day or my dog needs to go to the vet. I won't park in your pregnant/nursing Mom spot, but I want to sometimes just out of spite.

Ugh. And the size of your carbon footprint of shame grows exponentially for every kid you have. If you have more than 2...you hate the planet. Not your kids' fault though, so I'll be nice to 'em.

And for the love of all that is holy, please stop giving your kids last names for first names. For every Tucker, Conner, Carson, Madison, Bailey, and Cooper I want to throat-punch another parent. They are people, not pets.

When I go to the bathroom, I hardly ever wash my hands. The only exception is if poop and/or pee actually makes contact with my hands. If somebody else walks in behind me, I'll sometimes run the water without putting my hands in it, then either activate the blower or grab a paper towel just so they think I washed my hands. That typically depends on where I am (if its a business setting or Church setting I'll go through the fake motions), but I'll usually just walk out, GRAB THE DOOR HANDLE, and continue on as usual. Shaking hands, eating food, whatever.

I rule.

when i was on the Norman High golf team i played a tournament round with this kid from one of the Tulsa schools (Hale or Memorial, maybe Broken Arrow...i forget) who was dying of cancer. i didn't know this at the time, but his head was shaved from chemo....it made sense later.

he was terrible. truly terrible. me and my friend from Edmond's team made fun of him ruthlessly (for some unknown reason) for 18 holes. i figure his coach let him play "just because"....i still feel terrible about it. and it was 20 years ago.

edit: to be honest, i think it's worst thing i've ever done.

Two things that come to mind I am sure I will have to answer for at some point:

- Years ago I had a girlfriend that I dumped when I realized I was getting close to relocating to another job out of state. No way was I going to take her with me, which she assumed would happen. Break up sex? Yes, I milked it and felt bad when she figured out what I was up to.

- I swindled a company out of $20,000 because they wouldn't agree to something we were attempting. So the Big Swindle went off under the threat we would stop doing business with them. I have never behaved that way in a business setting since, and the poor bastud on the receiving end of my action passed away a long time ago. The fact I can recall this event of 14 years ago with clarity indicates I feel some guilt, no? HEY IT AIN'T LIKE FUGGERS HAVER NEVER RIPPED ME OFF BEFORE!

And that whole washing your hands in the bathroom thing? I have actually thought that, as I'm standing there peeing, if the slob on the crapper in the stall next to me sees my shoes, and later in the day connects me with the shoes he saw as somebody who don't wash their hands, then yeah, I'll go over to the sink and run the water for a few seconds, turn on the hand blower or make excessive noise getting a paper towel, and then I am covered.

And one more thing...

I never hope for games to be injury free (in fact i often wish for key opposing players to leave the game with injuries) but I do wish for relatively minor injuries that would keep them out for only our game, or until they have lost another game if they must lose two for us to make it into the Big XII Championship.

Sometimes I wish for an injury to be career ending, but only if it is a player I really do not like and I think he can earn a fine income as an insurance salesman or a firefighter or whatever, I just do not think he needs to cash in on the NFL lottery.

Is that so bad?

I'm really annoyed by roadside memorials to car crash victims. I'm sorry they're dead but why must I be reminded of their death on my way to work every day. It's almost as if I'm supposed to acknowledge and share in the grief of those who've lost someone along this roadside. I don't know you, I don't want to know you, and I don't want to know about your loss.

In third grade, I cheated on my history exam. In fourth grade, I stole my uncle Max's toupee and I glued it on my face when I was Moses in my Hebrew School play. In fifth grade, I knocked my sister Edie down the stairs and I blamed it on the dog... When my mom sent me to the summer camp for fat kids and then they served lunch I got nuts and I pigged out and they kicked me out... But the worst thing I ever done - I mixed a pot of fake puke at home and then I went to this movie theater, hid the puke in my jacket, climbed up to the balcony and then, t-t-then, I made a noise like this: hua-hua-hua-huaaaaaaa - and then I dumped it over the side, all over the people in the audience. And then, this was horrible, all the people started getting sick and throwing up all over each other. I never felt so bad in my entire life.

Hopefully they will.

The bigger your lady gets, the harder it is to get around. And some get to the point where having 20-50 pounds bolted on your gut is downright debilitating. What happened to good ol' fashoined chivalry, anyway? I know my mama would throw a shoe so far up my *** I could tie the laces by pickin' my nose if she found out her boy didn't step back and do the gentlemanly thing for a lady, let alone a pregnant one.

But to at least contribute, I was a full blown :chicken: when I was a boy. Said a lot of things to a lot of people in school, picking on 'em and stuff. One kid, we called him 'Stroker Ace' because he got caught polishing his loverocket. I railed that kid unmercifully, to the point where he actually manned up one day, threw down his bookbag, and gunned up for go time. He must've watched an afterschool special or something where the little guy beats up the big, mean bully. I looked at the kid, laughed, and went on to class. I feel bad that I pushed that kid so far he was willing to throw down for it to stop. I'd like to say that became an introspective moment where I realized picking on others is simply one's way to try and bolster their own ineptitude. I'd like to say I realized the err of my ways and apologized, befriended the kid, and ended up finding a commonality never before seen like some crap from a John Hughes movie.

Instead, myself and everyone else still called the kid 'Stroker Ace'. We couldn't fit enough wanking jokes in the school day. And I gotta admit, making fun of a kid because he was spankin' it at school still strikes me as pretty damn funny.

Try not to jump to conclusions. My ex had a handicapped tag and she can walk just fine. However, she was born with a defect in her ankles and after 5 surgeries, it still isn't corrected. She can walk fine for about a quarter of a mile or so, then her ankles just give out. I've seen it happen many times. She'll be walking along, and without warning, she falls flat on her face and she can't walk again for a few hours.


Many times, I have been approached by somebody challenging why we should get that spot. I got so tired of explaining it. Finally, I would just roll my eyes and ignore the idiot.

I really wish I had the balls to say to them, "Gee, dip ****, you really are championing the cause of the hadicaps! You sure are going to get another jewel in your crown in Heaven!"


Now, we did live by one promise to ourselves. We would never take the last available handicapped spot.

Oh, yeah! I agree! I have already told my family that if I died on the road, do NOT make a memorial for me! I would rather be remembered for what I've done with my life, and not be remembered as some dumbass that fell asleep at the wheel.

And for the love of God, if I die, don't put a sticker on your car saying in memory of me..I told my wife if she did that, I would haunt her til she took it off..I think there is a better way to remember me than a sticker on your back window

...the dirty little secrets that make you a horrible person:

There are many things I won't do in public that I confine to the privacy of my own little safe environments, like being home.

1- Complaining about others. I usually have a smile on my face 90 percent of the time, but on the inside, I'm thinking about how awful it is what people are saying about others, how terrible people are acting in public and how much I dislike traffic lights in downtown Tulsa.

2- Cursing. Parents would not tolerate the words popularly known as "four letter words," thus that has carried through all these years later. I would curse all the time when the parents (and tattlers, like the school and the brother) were not around and as such, continue this trend today.

3- Nail biting. It's an awful habit and I know it, but sometimes I'm just too nervous to not do it. I use hand sanitizer quite often, so it's not a health issue or anything, but I have a nasty habit, people. It's just as addictive as alcohol and tobacco, except I've been doing it for more than 20 years, probably closer to 25 (and I am exactly 25 now).

So, there's the nasty confessions of badger, the two-faced blond chick that might look happy, polite and... um... fingernailified in public, but leads a separate angry, cursing, biting personality on the inside. :D

Ok, now that I read the rest of the thread, I see that my last post did not really fit in with everything else. So, here's my bad little badger story...

We had this awful professor. Nobody liked the class (it was an artsy fartsy class for an elective and we met in a tiny classroom adjacent to her office) and the professor often showed up late. The five-minutes-and-you-leave rule was definitely in effect.

Anyways, she did several things that I thought were questionable over the semester. First, I was one of three people in the class to purchase the textbook, so she asked me to share my book with my classmates to photocopy. I later e-mailed her privately to tell her how that made me feel as a professional writer and the pressure it put on me in front of peers asking to do such a thing. So, she brought it up later in front of the class. Awkward.

After that, it was all downhill. She became extremely critical of everything I said and did in class. It was an awful semester and I was certain that she was going to give her final judgment of my morals of breaking copyright infringement laws via the report card. Thus, I was determined to make an equally awful final judgment... in the form of teacher evaluations. She was by no means tenured and an awful evaluation would mean even more for her - especially when only three out of the entire class bothered to show for evaluation day (yes, we hated her that much that people just stopped showing up).

Ruthless evaluation over, a few weeks later to my shock, I was issued an "A" grade at the end of the semester. Did she actually respect that I stood up to her in week one and all the future criticisms were just tests to see if I would continue standing up? Was it just the fact that I had perfect attendance and nobody else seemed to care about the class anymore?

I would like to think that my bad evaluation did not haunt her, but I still wonder if it did. As bad of a teacher as she was, I still question if I did the right thing by my vengeful evaluation.

1) A sudden drop in mileage is an indicator that something is wrong with your car.

2) I now know that if I slow down just 5 MPH when I drive to Dallas it will save me about 3-5 MPG.

3) I know not to get gas at the station at the corner of Boyd and Classen anymore because they're crooks. :mad:

This wasn't done with ill will, but it still sucks. I was back in my hometown for some holiday or something and ran into my "girlfriend" from 6th grade. After reminiscing on how she broke up with me at the skating rink and having a good laugh that she would marry the guy she broke up with me for, I asked her when she was due since I had heard she was pregnant and she looked every bit full term. She then let me know that she had the baby 4 months earlier... Ouch... I couldn't quite recover and that was the last time I've ever seen her... all 200 pounds of her.

Sometimes, a person is driving just behind me at the same pace I am walking, waiting for me to get in my car and leave. They want my space. Dangling my car keys for effect, I suddenly walk between cars and go to the other aisle.

When I was a little kid, we were eating in a small town diner and I spilled some ice on the floor next to the table. Some handicapped guy comes walking by and slips on the wet spot, falls, and stays on the ground, stunned more than injured I think. My folks did not realize I had spilled the ice, and some staff were helping the guy, so we left the restaurant.

I took pleasure in finding out people I did not like in high school are struggling through adulthood. A friend of mine was bullied by OU qb Brewster Hobby's son in high school. My friend looked him up on court docket websites, some 25 years or so after high school, and laughed when he saw the ex-bully had a bunch of arrests for DUI and is doing prison time in Texas and looks like a broken-down old man in his mug shot. My friend and I both laughed about the guy's demise.

I am usually depended on to help my friends in any of a very wide variety of topics, and it gets very frustrating.

For instance, my girlfriend is a business major. I have never taken more then 1 business class in my life. However, I am expected to tutor her in micro and macro economics, both of which I know nothing about. There are a million other examples like this. I am frequently needed to set up computers/fix computer problems, do a huge variety of college homework, diagnose medical conditions, etc. I have many hard college classes I am taking as well, but my homework is always saved for after midnight, because usually a few people a night need help with insert_completely_random_task_01.

Although I do not mind helping at all, it gets to the point where I am being taken advantage of, and I resent my friends and girlfriend often because of it.

OK, here's mine.

I get very annoyed with the users I support who can't/won't follow simple directions. When it comes to providing support, I adopt the Winston Wolf attitude for dealing with issues.

Which is basically that I think fast, talk fast, and act fast...and I don't like having to repeat basic directions to users that my 5 year old could follow without any problems.

For example, there's a remote assistance tool that we use that requires the user to answer in the affirmative on 2 or 3 prompts before we're remoted in. To prep users for this, I'll tell them to answer in the affirmative when the prompts come up.

Invariably, I'll get about 3 or 4 everyday that will ask 'OK, do I click run here?' on each and every prompt...AFTER I'VE F***ING TOLD THEM TO DO SO ALREADY!!!

I realize I can't make a user do something they either don't want to or incapable of doing. But it still annoys the crap out of me because it's not that hard to follow directions.

...the dirty little secrets that make you a horrible person:

For example:
I am a little prejudiced against obese people. And by a little I mean a lot.

I get very uncomfortable around retarded kids. I'm just not kosher with full-bodied hugs from anybody that's not my wife.

I try to stare out of the corner of my eye when I see somebody with a weird deformity. I want to be that guy that looks past that stuff and just sees the person inside. Nyeah, I'm not. I thinking "WTF" just like everybody else.

Uhhh... sorry... David Bowie offered guest vocals on the Queen album "Hot Space". Look it up, holmes.

and I love the song, but for some reason Ice Ice Baby is infectious to me. I don't have it downloaded and I do have Under Pressure, but in my head when I hear that riff I always hear "lets kick it".
With a collaboration between David Bowie and Queen I'm surprised they found time to use their mouths for singing.

I think lack of talent (in terms of profession or chosen field of study) is a huge turn-off. And I don't just mean if, for example, a guy is a writer and he's absolutely horrible at it. I mean if he's a competent writer rather than a really good writer. I'm a talent snob.

I take things that shouldn't be funny and make my wife laugh about them... like my Dads suicide when I was 14. Anytime the word "Dad" or any reference to suicide is brought up, I go overboard accusing her of bringing up my pain and referring to my dad eating a lead salad, eating bullets, etc. I also do this with a chosen few people that are close to me as well and it is extremely unsettling to them. I do it in a way that they have to laugh and then when they do, I make them feel bad for laughing, like they're laughing at my misery.

People who don't say thank you or you're welcome when you do something nice in public: I would like to follow them through the store incessantly saying "THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU" while staying no further than 2 feet away from them.

People who drive like there are no auto laws: I would seriously like to ram your car off the road into a tree (especially those that speed ridiculously or cut people off trying to get ahead of everybody).

People who drive right through pedestrian crosswalks in front of the Wal-Mart's while my small children and the olden people have to scurry: I seriously wish this was one of those times when I was the real Punisher or Wolverine and I could exact vengeance that would make even the gods blush. Seriously, are you in that much of a god damn hurry that running down small children and crippled olden people doesn't factor into your driving decisions?

People who are racist: I'm not racist, I generally hate parts of every faction of society, not all people of those factions.

Oh, and I'm part polish, french, italian and american. So, I shall now be a polfreita-american. Sounds stupid doesn't it? I've never been to Poland, France or Italy. I'm American. If you have not been to your country of origin, you are not that country of origin. You are American of Italian descent. You are American of African descent.

If you see me scolding my children in public for the way they are acting, mind your own business. Disciplining my children does not make me an abuser. I am stern with them and expect them to listen to me, when they don't they get in trouble. If you roll your eyes at me again, I shall take them directly out of your head, make you gargle them in your mouth, then take them and stick them in a gumball machine. I do not even think twice about other parents discipling their children unless it goes across the line into hitting them hard. that's not cool, you should be waterboarded.

I try not to be a bad person and I truly try to make good decisions. If I make a bad decision or say something you don't like, it's not intentional. Please remember that God did not make me perfect. Life is a constant lesson. I'm still learning.

I think the "pregnant/expecting/new mother" parking spaces are ridiculous. I don't need to park close because I'm young and in good health so I shouldn't mind who does. But I don't consider pregnancy or parenthood to be a handicap. It's a self-inflicted result of your behavior. NO PARKING SPACE FOR YOU. While I'm busy covering for your a$$ at work for the next 9 years while Junior gets every virus in town or you just don't feel like coming in today so you can go to the store and park near the handicapped folks I won't like you very much. And I won't mind a bit if I decide I want a mental health day or my dog needs to go to the vet. I won't park in your pregnant/nursing Mom spot, but I want to sometimes just out of spite.

I hang out near those spaces waiting to catch a glimpse of a **** to be...

One time I keyed a guys new car in a crowded parking lot b/c he was taking up two spaces. I still feel bad about this one, even though there were people parking across the street to get in and having to run through the rain. I know he did it intentionally as he had the curb next to one side and he was parked in the middle, eliminating the possibility that there was somebody there previously that forced him into a bad space. Still, this is probably one of the worst things I've done in my adult life. I still await retribution for it...

I do too, but I doubt it... Like I said, I was running in the rain but I had driven past the car while looking for a parking place and was already pretty peeved. If I had taken the time to write out a note explaining the whole scenario I wouldn't have actually damaged his car, but as I was running through the rain, drenched and mad, I saw his car on my direct path and it just happened. I didn't even break my stride.

Sometimes I'll just leave a note letting them know what inconsiderate jerks they are (I've seriously done this) but this one just kind of happened the way it did. I wish I could take it back but what can you do? I guess admit it on a messageboard and hope that fixes it somehow... ;)

I once encountered a similar scenario with a Corvette. I was driving a smallish old clunker, so I actually managed to fit my car into the tiny space left between the curb and the Vette's driver side. Left maybe half an inch for him to open that door. I thought it would be funny if he tried some to jack with my car, given that it was all beat up anyway. In retrospect, I'm lucky I didn't get my tires slashed.

Well, a friend of mine had this happen to him when visiting a small office building. He noticed the double-parked car. He went ahead and drove to the back of the building, walked to the front and when he went inside yelled "OK, who's the moron that thinks he needs two spaces out there?!" A gentleman spoke up saying it was him, and my friend continued on "so, you think you NEED more than one space to park your car?!" He said the guy felt pretty bad about it and he felt good not having to do any damage.

If that were the case, my kids would never eat when we went out. My daughter will eat chinese, my son won't. They'll both eat chips and dip, but thats pretty much the limit at Mexican. At Italian, my daughter will eat noodles with no sauce and my son will eat meat sauce but no noodles (I'm not kidding either). I draw the line at certain points, but pickiness reigns for kids, especially those under 5. Plus, you can't rightly give a 3 year old a regular menu and let them color on that, can you?

Many restaurants would go out of business if they didn't have a bland (chicken strips/grilled cheese/corn dog) menu for kids because it wouldn't be worth the money for parents to deal with them. I would just stay home. That said, we get takeout several times a week for the wife and I, eat at our leisure at home while the kids eat their meal of choice.

As for the double-lane parker, that is pure *********gery and should be punished. However, I simply hack a big aggie on their window rather than cause actual damage. Ocassionally, I will put an Obama sticker on their bumper also.

Like I said, one of these days (if you have kids) you will understand. Besides I wouldn't call chicken nuggets any more junk food than I would 2 enchilada's with rice and beans or a heaping bowl of fettucini alfredo. Matter of fact, they're more healthy than most of the things you get at a restaurant. French fries... not so much.

I said the same thing before I had kids. However, reasoning with a child under the age of 4 is futile. Besides, paying for a meal at a restaurant to see if a kid likes a certain food is not the best method. We try out new foods at home to see if they like them first.

That said, I just don't take my kids to certain upscale restaurants b/c I know they won't like it and it would be wasted on them. Instead, I take them to family-friendly places...mexican food, chain restaurants, Boomerang sort of thing.

We have always taken our kids with us 90% of the time to restaurants. They learn how to behave in public, use manners, etc. and eventually look forward to it....which lets me eat out more often.

Couldn't agree more.

However, I make it a point to make sure my daughter tries everything she can. When we eat mexican, she eats mexican. When we eat chinese, she eats chinese. Italian, Thai, whatever. That's because early on, she got chicken and french fries but I made her have a bite of whatever it was I was having. That, me never allowing her to be a picky eater from jump, and her getting her daddy's appetite has made for a fairly brave, if not fullblown adventurous girl in regards to different cuisine.

Case in point, we're in Winter Park this past spring break. At a barbecue joint (a horrible one at that) and there's calf fries on the menu. I'm on that like white on rice, so I order us up some and tell my Abigail, "You're gonna try 'em too, baby." She did. They were the worst calf fries I've ever had. And she agreed that they sucked balls (pun intended). But it wasn't an episode of her freaking out about trying something new. I wasn't exactly forthcoming with what it was we ate that day either. But she tried it, WE tried it, and we moved right along.

My nieces and nephews are as picky as you'll find. Drives me absolutely nuts, not because they're whiny lil' turds, but because of the awesome, off the wall things they'll never try because it's not 'chicken and french fries'.
