So, I had an encounter with a Limbicile yesterday. [View all]

I deliver pizzas a couple of days a week, mainly for beer and golf money. I don't need the job, but it keeps me occupied.

Our shop is in a small strip mall, that we share with a sports bar, a Jimmy Johns franchise, and an AT&T store.

So I walked out to my car for a delivery, and heard some idiot behind my car ranting and raving about fucking assholes (he saw my Bernie 2016, and Feel the Bern bumperstickers on my car) Since I was on the clock, and my boss treats me pretty well, I really didn't want to engage with the nutcase anyway, so I tried to ignore him. He wouldn't let up as I was backing out and demanded to know if I was a Communist or an asshole. I told him both, and I was just 'feelin' the Bern, and that I was delighted at having ruined his day.

I could still hear him frothing at the mouth as I drove away. I mean seriously, dude. If I'd had 10 minutes to spare, I could have had you ready to be fitted for a straight jacket.
