Random acts of verbal violence. I see them from time to time. Unfortunately when I do, it seems to hurt my brain. Why are some people a few sandwiches short of a picnic? One of Life’s strange riddles I suppose.<\/p>\n

Working in radio has me coming and going at weird hours. While\u00a0heading to work last night, I stopped to fill up on overpriced gas. While pumping my life savings away, I notice two people walking past me. One of them sees someone behind me and screams, “Hey man, how’s your diabetes!? Can you still feel your toes!?” <\/strong><\/em>He was yelling at an overweight employee who was just minding his own business. The poor bastard just stood there and took it like a prison bitch from Oz<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Just think about that for a minute. This “perpetrator” was walking down the street and basically verbally attacked someone for no reason whatsoever. Obviously the guy was either drunk or on drugs, but what goes through a person’s mind to make them go on a random act of verbal violence like that? I guess drugs and alcohol are steroids for the angry.<\/p>\n

People are assholes. Happy Easter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
