Eric Swalwell's Wife's Boyfriend

QT for future meme idea

sandman has a similar moment

Every tweet in my Drafts from the past several years is me saying something like "Ok. I get it. I'm Indian", and then deciding not to post it.

I would genocide all of Africa if it meant something like Elephants got to live safely

My Indian experience yesterday. Went to Costco for gas ($3.89). Most pumps taken with long lines. My gas tank is on the left (F-150) but I opted for a right-side pump (not occupied). I have to stretch the gas hose across the bed to reach. Costco plans on this and has extra long hoses to accommodate this. They also have wide space in the middle for cars to exit between cars on the left and right pumps. While filling my truck, I heard a short car horn tap. I looked back and an Indian man wanted me to move out of the way even though he had plenty of room to go between me and the car (also Indian, of course) of the other side. When using a pump on the passenger side, I have to hold the hose or it will fall out so I moved closer to the truck until my chest was touching my truck. Clean shirt, dirty truck. Trying to make room for this no-driving moron. And be nice. Then I heard this looong horn blast from this guy. Apparently, he was wanting me completely away from the left side of my truck. At this point, I gave him a hard look and stepped back as far as I could while still being able to hold the hose into the truck. He still could have driven away but if he wouldn't pass with my chest on my truck, no way he'd try now. Plus, at this point, this was personal. Texas, man. It took about 3 minutes until I was done. Put the cap on and went to the back of my truck. Rude Indian started to slowly pass. I motioned for him to roll his window down. He did a little and I told him what I thought about him and his heritage with a few words that would get me banned from free-speech X. The F and P words were liberally utilized. He moved on pretty fast. The Costco gas attendant witnessed the whole thing and started walking over. Knowing that Costco is a liberal company, I thought I'd get a lecture about embracing diversity or they'd suspend my membership. He was an American and walked up to me and said "I hate those f-ers." We had a short conversation about living around rude Indians and Muslims. He said I should try working at Costco. I told him I'd end up in prison within a few hours if I worked there. Americans are normally polite. We're taught to be polite. I soiled my shirt to make room for an idiot who cannot drive and I received a long horn blast for it. I'm serious, you could have driven a school bus through the space he had. He couldn't. I long ago stopped ignoring people being impolite. They are this way because we have taught them they can get away with it and it changes our culture. I had a very direct conversation with some idiot from LA who just had to talk so loud the entire restaurant could hear her how "the sushi in LA is sooooo much better than Texas sushi." I told her the same road that brought her here takes her ass right back to LA. Got a round of applause from Texans in the room. I will not allow these a-holes to alter the way I live my life as a Texan and an American. Greg Abbott does enough of that.
