I could tell stories until midnight tomorrow, and still have new ones for next week. I can remember losing my temper over a trio of hashibab's who tagged teamed my one after the other. One would try, then the other, then the other, then two, and then all three, and then one, and then the other......until I told them to leave. But noooooo they didn't leave very long. A few minutes, and then came one, and then the other.....And upon the third, I actually left my chair, got right up in his face, and screamed...GET OUUUUUUUUTTTTT!!!!
God.....it's too late in the evening to dredge up this blood pressure elevating stuff

Just reading the story you told about the tire shop owner and the new landlord from India pissed me off. The man would have been out of my face and out of the shop the second time I asked him to leave, airborne if necessary. The lack of respect and the attempted bullying doesn't fly with me.
