Okay...so since when did it become okay to ever insult someone that another person cares about? Really...did I miss something?
There is this guy that I really like. If you people have been following, then you might know who. Might. Maybe. I dunno. Well, anyways...last night, my mothers boyfriend proceeds to put his foot firmly into his mouth.
"That guy you brought to the house the other night, what gorilla cage did you get him out of? He was huge."
See...is there any right way for me to take that? Did I not read between the lines enough? How can I take that as a joke? I can see maybe:
"Don't take offense to this but the guy that you brought to the house to the other night was a big boy."
That would have been a little better...maybe. And yes, the guy that I like is 6 feet 3 inches tall. He is a big guy...but where and when do you get the hell off saying shit like that?
I mean, I personally don't think I overreacted to a comment like that. I didn't reach over and back hand the bastard across the face like I wanted to but still...what he said would have been like someone going up to a friend of theirs and saying:
"Damn, dude, when did you go to the shelter? She's a fucking dog."
Or...
"Wow, girl, know wonder you didn't tell me you had a man. You went dumpster diving."
Its really one thing that you DO NOT want to do...insult the people I care about. You'll find yourself firmly rotating on a potato peeler. Try me.
