Typically, I have not been good at using the stare, I engage instead. Today, I just stared and it was amazing!! I highly recommend it.
That's all. Just a brag on my part
Story for for anyone who cares to read:
I was watching DD's game today (they were winning handily) and a stranger approached me. He says "how has dinner time been at your house recently?" I said "I am not sure what you mean". He says "well the girls didn't play very well yesterday ". They didn't. But it happens. They play year round, some games will be rough. I employed the stare. Hardcore. He then introduces himself and says " arent you coach Xx's wife?" I say yes. He then repeats that the girls didn't play well yesterday. I say "well, in a 9 month season, there will be ups and downs". He goes on to say that he bets it's been tense at home. I employ the stare again. He gets the picture and walks away.
Jerk.
Unfortunately, as a coach's wife, this is probably one of the nicest ways people have ever voiced concern. Lol. I just think it's rude to assume my husband is an azz and brings his work home with him.

I really felt like that was what he was getting at! People are often rude when they talk about the coach, I have learned to tune it out. But this guy just kept going on and on right to my face!

You should have said, "Things have been really tense. I'd show you the bruises but he left them in only in places that need to be covered up!" Bet he would have left then!

I don't think so. I think he was already trying to find an excuse to come between her and her husband so he could get into her pants. This would give him more encouragement and a lever.

What a totally stupid thing to say. Again you are overly focused on sex. There was absolutely ZERO indication that he was hitting on her.

OMG and there go the rumors!!!
I pulled something like this at the bank once. DH is always goofing around and saying he's going to hit me. One day we were at the bank and he commented something like "Hurry up so I don't have to hit you again..." Sensing an opportunity to get back at him, I seized upon the moment. I immediately broke into tears and proclaimed very loudly, "Go ahead. Do it again. I'm tired of you hitting me and if you hit me here there will be a ton of witnesses and the police will come!" The bank teller turn about ten shades of red. My husband turned speechless. In the car I laughed so hard I almost peed.

Why is everyone calling everyone else dumb and stupid tonight?
Ed ALWAYS find sex in a story somehow. Show me where in her story it said the guy was hitting on her? I never called HIM stupid. I said that was a really stupid thing to say because it was totally unwarranted. Not everyone is trying to get laid. If a guy asks you how you are today that doesn't mean he wants to have sex with you.

I know - we're good. I just don't like "dumb" and "stupid". I personally find those words very insulting and unnecessary, but I possibly don't communicate like most others do. I'd rather make people feel good. Which means I need to start a new thread, right?
Well honestly HM, please show me where in the OP the man was hitting on MM?

I thought his comment was a bit odd considering the op.
Thank you. He wasn't "hitting" on her.

LOL!!!! When I told someone a comment they made was "stupid"--you jumped all over me for it. You were all indignant and insisted you "never" treat other posters like that.
Now on another thread--you do that VERY THING.
My comment about you looking in the mirror was spot on.

Thanks for dragging that thread here. I believe you're not supposed to do that. But, it will be another rule you break. And my complaint was about you saying to STFU. Not someone saying something stupid.

Oh, so you get to break the rules--but no one else does. Right.
I didn't tell any poster on here to STFU--but you directed your comment directly at another poster.

Does anyone actually read the rules? Or is it more fun to just make them up?

Yes I know LL. Husker is allowed to do whatever he wants.

I read them right after that whole brouhaha involving the break room. I don't believe I broke any in that instance.
Were you banned?
No. I didn't say I was--but I was warned and I think that was more of a personal issue than breaking of a rule.
It was not appropriate for the sensitive nature of that thread. And the moderators have the right to make such decisions in their discretion, which is not up for debate.
