    How to Deal With A$$holes"

    For all of you who occasionally have a really bad day, and you just need to take it out on someone, don't take it out on someone you know, take it out on someone you don't know.

    I was sitting at my desk, when I remembered a phone call I had forgotten to make. I found the number, and dialed it. A man answered saying, "Hello?" I politely said, "This is Fred Hannifin, could I please speak with Robin Carter?"

    Suddenly, the phone was slammed down on me. I couldn't believe that anyone could be so rude.

    I tracked down Robin's correct number, and called her. (I had transposed the last two digits of her phone number.)

    After hanging up with her, I decided to call the 'wrong' number again. When the same guy answered the phone, I yelled, "You're an a$$hole!" and hung up. I wrote his number down, with the word 'a$$hole' next to it, and put it in my desk drawer.

    Every couple of weeks, when I was paying bills or had a really bad day, I'd call him up and yell, "You're an a$$hole!" It always cheered me up.

    When Caller, ID came to our area, I thought my therapeutic 'a$$hole' calling would have to stop.

    So, I called his number and said, "Hi, this is John Smith from the Telephone Company. I'm just calling to see if you're familiar with the caller ID program?" He yelled, "NO!" and slammed the phone down.

    I quickly called him back and said, "That's because you're an a$$hole!"

    So, one day I was at the store, getting ready to pull into a parking spot. Some boy in a black BMW cut me off, and pulled into the spot I had patiently waited for. I hit the horn and yelled that I had been waiting for the spot. The idiot ignored me. I noticed a "For Sale" sign in his car window, so I wrote down his number. A couple of days later right after calling the first a$$hole (I had his number on speed dial), I thought I had better call the BMW a$$hole, too. I dialed and someone said, "Hello?" I said, "Is this the man with the black BMW for sale?" "Yes it is." "Can you tell me where I can see it?" "Yes, I live at 1802 West 34th Street. It's a yellow house and the car's parked right out front." " What's your name?" I asked. "My name is Don Hansen," he said. "When's a good time to catch you, Don?" "I'm home every evening after five." "Listen, Don, can I tell you something?" "Yes?" "Don, you're an a$$hole!" Then I hung up, and added his number to my speed dial, too.

    Now, when I had a problem, I had two a$$holes to call. But after several months of calling them, it wasn't as enjoyable as it used to be.

    So, I came up with an idea: I called A$$hole #1. "Hello", "You're an a$$hole!" (But I didn't hang up.) "Are you still there?" he asked. "Yeah," I said. "Stop calling me," he screamed.

    "Make me," I said."Who are you?" he asked. "My name is Don Hansen." "Yeah? Where do you live?" "A$$hole, I live at 1802 West 34th Street, a yellow house with my black Beemer parked in front. He said, "I'm coming over right now, Don. And you had better start saying your prayers." I said, "Yeah, like I'm really scared, a$$hole." Then I called a$$hole # 2:
    "Hello?" he said. "Hello A$$hole," I said. He yelled, "If I ever find out who you are..."

    "You'll what?" I said. "I'll kick your a$$," he exclaimed. I answered, "Well, a$$hole, here's your chance. I'm coming over right now."

    Then, I hung up, and immediately called the police, saying that I lived at 1802 West 34th Street, and I was on my way over there to kill my gay lover. Then, I called Channel 13 news about the gang war going down on West 34th Street.

    I quickly got into my car and headed over to 34th St. There, I saw two a$$holes beating the crap out of each other in front of 6 squad cars, a police helicopter, and news crew.

    Now, I feel better.

    Thanks for the good laugh. I even read it to my 16 year old and they laughed too. If only it were true.

    yeah...you made a spelling error which may have manifested itself in your pronunciation of the word on the phone

    Funny....I had an exchange that went like this:

    Thoughtless jerk: "Sorry dude, you know...$hit happens!"

    My reply was "Just around you, 'cause you're an @$$hole!"

    The more I read this essay, the more I am giving a thought to dealing with a certain a$$hole I know in this way.

    I need to get happy here.

    I made a phone call the other nite and got a wrong number. The man who answered started ranting at me for dialing the wrong number! I told him there was no need to get rude, that I had dialed his number by mistake, and he STILL would not let up. Apparently I woke him up, and he just went OFF on me.

    This essay came to mind, so I had to look it up. And I also wrote his number down. He is in for it now! Oh, yeah!

    Phone him back every half hour. That should give him just enough time to get back to sleep.
