Modern Buddy

Young guy, 30ish, wife. REALLY frak uptight. He also, when we barely knew each other, said the word "nigger", in reference to the crime in our "fair" city. I know I need to calm down, but he needs a smack, for real.



THOUGHTS?


Edit-WOW that was way too political. Lock, stock, and two smoking barrels.....

I've been in my house for 9 years. I couldn't even tell you my neighbors' names. I just may be anti-social...

Yeah. That would be my last conversation with this jerk.

When you get into fights with "friends", you just don't return calls. Simple.
I like this cat but for two glaring things. Racism. Feeling Superior.

Sounds like two valid reasons to not like someone.

Thanks. Exactly how I feel.

Thank you. Honest, RIGHT.

Edit-Behind every enemy is a friend. I'm trying to flip this flapjack so it wont burn. I want to be Ghandi. I feel like Black Kettle.

And this is indeed, the pot calling the Kettle black...............

Any neighbor who drops the Nbomb would pretty much be instant persona non grata.

That doesn't sound good. I don't really know my neighbors but I often say Hi to them when I see them. They all seem to love the Stella and once in a while I'll get a compliment but I can't say I know them too well. I would stay away from that neighbor as it doesn't seem that person is easy going...

Totally agree. I just needed reinforcement.

Not an option. For the record his wife likes me. Maybe that's the problem...............

It's a "Don't shit where you eat" thing, correct?

I have no idea what that expression means. But I guess you can go with that....

It means you keep your business away from your home.

Hey KrispyKreme, please take a look at our Posting Guidelines. While I personally don't give a sh!t about cuss words, Modern Buddy strives to be a family-friendly forum Also, this thread is totally off-topic, so ya know...scooters. Thanks!

This. The guy is young and obviously has some issues but he may also have a past that reinforces his views, whatever that may be. Think in terms that you can be a good influence on him and realize it will take a long time. Your challenge is twofold: (1) don't be overbearing and (2) persevere. He won't change at all if you cut him off. He may not change anyway but it's worth your effort. God bless!

My first thought is why a black cat for your avatar instead of a donut? Sorry, I couldn't resist.
