    Kusanagi, that has to be the world's best example of a karmic B***H-SLAP that I've seen in a LONG time! Kudos!

    Can we say:
    Who is this rectal-cranial inverted twit....and where is my sledgehammer??

        While at the table, I would have told the story to one of the other players and left names out of it just to watch her reaction.

            Or if you don't mind being a bad sport, near when it's obvious she's about to leave (and you can explain to everyone else after she storms out), after a big winning hand, say "Ah, this will help me supplement my Fiiiiiixed Innnnncome!"

              You are my personal hero. That story was b-e-a-utiful. I can't think of anything that could possibly be more satisfying.

              I can't stand people like that, and any time someone does complain about their income, they're usually full of crap. I get people all the time who want the most expensive device we sell for free on the basis that they're on fixed income. Or can't pay their bill because they're on disability/social (in)security/only get paid once a month. People that really are on budgetary limitations wouldn't be having these conversations with us in the first place, because they know what they can afford and how to stay in their boundaries.

                  I HATE when people whine about how they lost money they couldn't afford to lose. You know what? You lost it anyway, it's in my pocket, and I'm sure as hell not giving it back. Stop whining.

                    Augh, I know every call I get that starts with "Well, I'm on fixed income" is going to be hell. It's either "Can you change my due date?" (no. no. no.) or "What kind of discounts do you have for senior citizens?"

                    I understand fixed income sucks, I understand it's horrible for the elderly right now, but by golly we are not welfare, our corporation does not care if you are low income, fixed income, or no income, they want their money, and you need to appeal to the organizations that supply welfare for the under-privilaged.

                    I know I sound like a cold-hearted bastard, but jeepers people! The last person to appeal to is a multi-million dollar corporation!

                      Someone explained fixed income to me. They get a check for a predetermined amount from the government right? Sounds like my job. I know how much I make, and I get 40 hours a week. No Overtime. So unless I get a raise or the taxes change I get the same check every week. So aren't I on a "fixed income"

                      Come on, just because I have the ability to make more through raises, etc. doesn't make a difference. You should have planned better for retirement. I have two retirement accounts and I'm 22 years old!

                        She even said something along the lines of “I’m glad I didn’t buy from you.” I just looked at her and went “Well, if I had sold you the sofa earlier I would have made six dollars in commission. But no worries, I’ll gladly take the two hundred instead!”


                        Holy hell! For pulling that off you freaking rock!
