OR you can kick the kids off the team and prohibit them from any other sporting activity during their high school years to teach other kids that this type of behavior isnt okay.

And to you that makes it ok to assault someone from behind, and then kick them while they’re down, like a pussy? You need to grow up. Try doing that out in real life and see what happens to you. You’re lucky that things that happen in sports doesn’t get judged the same way it gets judged in the real world.

I did that a few weeks ago at my grocery store. The woman cut in front of me at the deli and immediately went “Excuuuuuuse me!” To the kid behind the counter who was bending over and obviously busy doing something. I said something to the effect of “you just cut in front of me, and the way you spoke to him was really…

Don’t forget the universal asshole notification of “the customer is always right”. No one has ever said those words to a service industry worker while not being an asshole.

I’m visiting Columbia right now and I feel like a shitheel for not having better Spanish, but I keep seeing other Americans acting like sarcastic dicks to people for only speaking their own goddamn language

I really think it’s getting worse, because (1) I’m hearing more and more people using the “customer is always right” excuse, and (2) YELP. Have you read some of those reviews? People loooove it. It’s their one chance to roleplay royals and peasants and they’re so into it. “Serve me, service woman! And do it right!”

Not sure if you’re trolling or genuine. If genuine, fuck off you idiot. If trolling, well done, sir.

I think I would throw something at her. Nothing heavy, just balled up napkins or something.

I’ve worked for two European companies, one French, one Swedish, each with offices around the globe, and universally, every person I dealt with overseas spoke English. It’s almost unfortunate that English has become the ‘langua franca’ of the business/finance world, because it erodes any actual necessity for students…

Sadly, I think not- it’s more like it’s done in a ‘stream-of-utter-lack-of-self-consciousness’.

This was a fucking train wreck that I could not pull my eyes away from. I can’t wait to share the horror.

I’d love to see a TV show that sends entitled Americans who lose their shit in restaurants to some place where nobody gives a shit because the customer is always right mentality doesn’t exist. Maybe send this woman to Russia where she has a meltdown because the borscht she ordered wasn’t to her liking and then the…

It’s getting worse in part because of the Yelp/social media review boom.

It’s particularly galling since the “speak English!” crowd generally speaks English so poorly themelves.

I definitely would have said something. That said: once, when I was 13, I overheard some racist lady talking mad shit about Mexicans. (This was in a part of LA that was largely Hispanic.) Anyways, she also kept mentioning Jesus. Her husband kept saying, “but dear...”

I work in a pub/restaurant and I get some really thick/angry people. I had a woman go mental over a onion bhaji that was ‘too dry’ (even though they’re supposed to be dry) and me and my manager worked our asses off trying to please her. I mean, she really kicked off over one onion bhaji. We have plenty of similar…

Maybe. But it’s just so awful to watch her rain abuse down on those employees. I just can’t imagine staying quiet and listening to her say those things without calling her out.

Ugh...why doesn’t anyone say anything? I get that we all want to avoid getting involved but this woman is clearly being a racist asshole. Someone thought enough to film it; did they think enough to say anything?

THIS IS AMERICA! DO IT LIKE IN AMUUUURRRICA *orders middle eastern food.*

Yeah, you’re a fool. Every time he’s cut, I get aroused. Fuck Tebow.
