I am usually courteous with people who deserve it. (Everyone does until proven otherwise). The ones who call me rude and ugly and nasty are the ones who are looking for a fight to begin with. I was in wild wings the other night, waddled up to the bar, found a free chair lodged between a woman and a guy. I asked if anyone was sitting there, the guy said no. So I pulled out the chair to sit down, got a filthy look from the woman, who kept glancing my way all night and saying something under her breath. When she got up to leave, she leaned over and said, "If you were a gentleman, you would've stood up and allowed a lady to get out of her chair gracefully". I couldn't believe it. I didn't say one word to her all night. I surely did after that statement. You should have seen her face when I talked back to her, I could still her yelling as she went out the front door.. priceless...
