Dealing With Snobs
Posted 11-15-2007 at 04:38 AM by toolman
There are a few in our midst who presume to know what's best for all of us. what's your suggested solution? BTW, this concerns material possesions only, ie: if you wear xxx shoes you're stupid because I wear YYY's, etc...

If you wear XXX shoes you're not stupid, you're just a perv. In all seriousness, I know people like that in real life. What i say to them is that "material things mean nothing to me, you can lose *insert possession here* just as quickly as you got it". Take a car for instance, let's say I drive a Honda and the snob drives a BMW. You can go down the street and get into a wreck and total your car. Then what will you have that makes you better than me?
Also, sometimes I say "material possessions are not my concern, they're yours".Posted 11-15-2007 at 06:18 AM by TexasT

hehe me too
i dont dress quite like that but i will often dress up like a ninja and scare the crap outa peoplePosted 11-16-2007 at 10:15 PM by FutureMarine9 - Wow, I just found this one again! For some reason, the snobbery seem to be a lot lower than when I posted it, maybe it helped? Or maybe the snobs just got eaten by the ZEBP (Zombie Elitist Brain Patrol). This is a secret division of the NSA, that turns former KGB agents into zombies who're then sent out into the world to eat the brains of everyone who thinks that they're better than us average slobs. Oh yeah, the corpses are then plastered with Lee, Hi-Point, Jennings, Raven, Taurus, and Rem. 770 stickers so that they can never reach the promised land and that never-ending ammo drum...

I can handle snobs.I don't listen to what comes out of their mouths cause their brains are scrambled like eggs from the zombies sucking on them.Never turn your back on them.
What I can't handle about myself is me being so perfect and being right all the time.Just ask Seabee and if he tells you anything different I'll hurt him.Being perfect is a 24/7 job...

- i have a subtle method for dealing with snobs
i usually yell
yeah well ---- y--!
they always come around to my polite way of thinking after that....Posted 11-11-2008 at 11:00 AM by billy - Taurus factory recieved my 38 special in Jan 2009. The barrel cracked. I contact them once a week. Each time it will be sent out "next week". Last week they said that the ATF was there, and they can't send anything until ATF leaves. They also said that they destroyed my gun, and that I would recieve a new one. I have an NRA card, but all I get there is a busy signal, or a talking machine. I need to protect my home. I live near Chicago, and things are getting rough around here. The gangs are marking their territorys, and casing the neiborhood frequently. What can I do? I feel more secure with my 38. Can anyone tell me how to get the factory to respond? Cabela's told me it would be a nightmare. They have heard simular stories. I hoped NRA would back me, but I can't get through. People around here are buying ammo to the point where even Cabela's can't keep it on the shelf. I have enough of my own if I ever get my gun back. Thanks for any help.
