I figured as much. Being sick at home at 12:00 with nothing to do will drive you to things you'd previously thought unlikely...indycop said:Sorry Jerekson but you lost it right there.lol
Seriously though, talk about some dumb people...

Woman: "You have no right to wear that hat."
LB: "Excuse me, madam?"
Woman: "That hat is for a responsible older person. You young people, you think you can have it all. You are rude, obnoxious, you are lazy, you have no work ethic and expect everything to be handed to you on a platter. It is your generations fault we are having this financial crisis."
LB: "As you say, Madam."
LB exits scene, stage right.

I had fellow ask me if it came with batteries and then walk away. I'm not that up on pop culture. Am I missing something (other that batteries)?

Are you sure he was talking about your hat?
If so, then it is one of those weird sound bit driven mind connections made because he was compelled to say something but the synapsis mis-fired.[huh]

Then I walked away. To my knowledge I had done nothing to provoke this, I was hardly being loud or obnoxious, speaking only in a low voice with my mother regarding antiques. I have to say I took offense, many of my friends are working 50 hours weeks IN ADDITION to a full time batchelor degree at university, which clocks in at another 50 hours with study time (what the guides recommend). I am lucky enough not to be, but I would hardly classify the generation as lazy. And all this because I wore a fedora?
We say 220 around here. Used to cost departments $2.20 for an officer to check someone into the mental ward, so mentals ended up being called 220s. I doubt it's on the books as official code, but any LE in the area knows what it means.jamespowers said:We say a 5150 here.
