Quiet Man

Buttholes Unite!

I swear THAT was my kids battle cry today. WHY. Why does the universe give us our pet peeves in full frontal 3-d.

I cannot STAND 1/2 ass-ing. Cannot S.T.A.N.D. it. And of course 1/2 assing happens daily in our home. But today they actually responded to my displeasure instead of avoiding or flinging teen-a-tude.

Today they responding to my silent yelling. I was so quiet with rage they Actually had to come physically close to me to hear what I was saying. Not whispering, just talking...clearly....and with the fury of hell.

Where did I learn this technique?

From my Father-in-Law. The original Quiet Man. I once saw him use this technique on my sister-in-law when she was a teen-ager.

He wasn't even mad at ME and I was scared shitless.
