    I find it hilarious too. If you don't like it, get a sense of humor ...

    I think fadeaway has a sense of humor. He just doesn't think the idea of mailing a box of human feces to someone is funny.

    Just because you find something funny and someone else doesn't, that doesn't mean that the other person has no sense of humor. If I point out what I consider to be an attractive woman on the street to you and you say, "Whatever, she's ugly", does that make you gay?

    I'm sure I've been guilty of accusing people in this same way in the past. It bugs me, though.

    Then I suggest you go work for her. After three months of the kind of on-the-job abuse this woman handed out, you just might think leaving her a fecal gift was on the tame side!

    Not at all, you're allowed to form an opinion about anything at all in this little world.

    On the same token, I'm allowed to consider fadeaway the kind of uptight, humorless personality that I wouldn't necessarily want to hang out with. The same could go for him.

    I think it's fine to find no humor in what Tex did. But to call it base, digusting, and an example of what's wrong with society as a whole.....I find that to be particularly lame, squeamish, and more than a little immature.

    Justify his response all you want, Brian. It doesn't change that fact that he was ripping on someone else for simply sharing a story. I find that to be rude and extremely annoying.

    How's that for a revolutionary concept?

    Alright kids, let's not blow this out of proportion.

    Would I do it again? Probably not, but I reserve my God-given right to do strange things in the future.
    Did she deserve it? Absolutely.
    Was it gross & sick? You betcha.
    Was it reflective of what is wrong with society? Isn't everything?
    Should I have shared it on this board? In light of the debate it sparked...probably not!

    That is all. Quit staring. Move along. Carry on.

    This is a fine inconsistency you've created here. Some would even call it a 'revolutionary concept' if they were in a pissy mood and wanted to mock someone.

    So fadeaway is allowed to form his opinion, as long as he doesn't go so far as to share it.

    Wow. I won't tell you what I think of that (don't want to perturb anyone by expressing an opinion).

    (Edit: I'm not going to change or delete anything in this thread. But upon reflection, I am being a jerk here. Feel free to shoot me full of holes).

    If you can't fathom me doing it, then don't hire me as your employee and abuse me. Like I said...you weren't there. You have no clue as to what that b*tch put me through just so I could earn a living and pay my rent. If you were in my shoes, perhaps you'd do something more gentlemanly, like bringing a gun to work and going postal.

    Fadeaway, to put it very frankly, I really don't give a box full of sh*t what you think about me or what I did, and this whole thread has proven to me that it is a useless waste of time to share anything personal on this BBS!

    Well, I know that this woman used to live at the studio and her "trailer-trash" boyfriend lived in the garage. I also know that she would begin each day by popping a couple of Prozac, which she would continue to wash down intermittently throughout the day with beer. She also chain smoked and had nasty mood swings.

    I also know that she had a rule at her company that she would not pay anyone time and a half for overtime, instead preferring to supplement everyone's income with a car allowance that she never delivered on. She also demanded 12 hour days from everyone, and because she was open Saturday, every other week was a six day work week.

    So no, while I never lived the experience, I do have at least some clue as to what happened.

    And yes, it was a bad situation, however...




    All I know that the idea of defecating in a box would not even enter into my thought process.


    Well, darn.


    If that's the type of personal thing people are going to share, then yes, I agree.

    It also scares the hell out of me that there are people out there who would actually do that sort of thing.

    Embrace your fear, tiny grasshopper!

    Deal with it, because there are quite a few people in the world who do worse things than sh*t in a box and hire a clown to deliver it. You just might meet one, and for your sake, I hope he or she isn't carrying a firearm.

    fadeaway, have you been reading Family Circle/Woman's Day again? This is the funniest ****ing thing I've read in months.

    fadeaway,

    Seriously, dude, crapping in a box and having it delivered to someone is not the end of the world.

    Have you never heard of the flaming bag of poo trick?

    1. put crap in a paper bag
    2. put bag on door step of irritating person
    3. light bag
    4. ring doorbell
    5. run
    6. try to watch as irritating person tries to stomp out fire.

    For Christ's sake the lady never had to touch the poo, or even stomp it with her shoes. I think the gag was a good one.

    I think Rocketman Tex did act with civility until he got the check he had lawfully earned and she had written, "Next time try working for a living" on it. That was total bullsh*t, so he just gave a little bullsh*t back to her is all.

    ----------------------

    I actually worked with a guy who peed in a pizza when some people came in at 9:58 and ordered two large supreme pizzas when we closed at 10:00. I didn't do it, and I didn't exactly urge him or nor did I condone it. Heck, he didn't even get his point across, because they never knew it and ate it up like it was nothing.

    The same guy supposedly came in another pizza of an employee. I didn't witness that one, so I can't say for sure whether it happened or not.

    Those are two examples of someone going too far. Having another person ingest your human waste is disgusting. Having a clown deliver a box of poo is funny.

    RocketMan Tex,

    If you ever have any other "revenge" stories, please post them. I enjoyed reading this one.

    Don't let someone's opinion stop you from posting it here. Then again don't take my opinion to mean you have to post anything here. Just realize that there will always be some people who appreciate what you do and some who don't... no matter what it is.

    Rock Tex, funny story.

    My uncle's pet monkey throws poo at people. That's my poo story for the day. I have another one, but my wife would get mad. [​IMG]

    Did I say it was the end of the world? I simply said it was base and disgusting, and it is.

    My girlfriend's brother got pissed off at one of his best friend's who was going to school in Oklahoma.

    So, to get back at him, he hired a mime, yes a mime, to follow him around all day. Everyone hates mimes.

    Funny. I always thought I had a pretty good <a href="http://bbs.clutchcity.net/ubb/Forum7/HTML/003356.html">sense of humour</a>.


    So sh*tting in a box, wrapping it up and sending it to someone isn't lame, squeamish and more than a little immature?? C'mon..

    What Tex did <u>was</u> base and disgusting.

    I just can't fathom the idea of someone actually doing that. It's just so far out of line. What's next, crapping in someone's food when they aren't looking?
