Moonchilde- you said Y'all so I assumed you were referencing anyone that had a different take...

Believe me, I am SURE you would scoff at some of the things that annoy me...

And we all know there are those who just have to set the person straight. It's their civic duty to save the world from her erroneous ways.

Always.

What facts? This thread is all opinion.

I have a feeling that response was posted in the wrong thread...

I wasn't speaking of anyone in particular. I just noticed some were coming down pretty hard on the OP. I think the OP did exactly what you would have done actually; yet, she is being shamed for her feelings.

uh no, you've got that wrong., She is not being shamed, she has stated that she couldn't care less about rude people or what anyone thought of her. You can't shame people who don't care what you think of them. She remarked that since they were 3-4 other places to eat in the area, they should just go there. If anything, she seems proud of herself for sticking up for her principles and once she got some support from other posters, actually got even more proud of her behavior.

SHE MOVED!!!!! What more do you want?????? She is not required to be thrilled about it. You're painting her with your own brush.

LOL. you know what's funny about your post? You posted the other day how a woman would make such a great President because they have empathy, genuine concern for others, and all sorts of glowing attributes. I laughed out loud when I read that because even on this teeny, tiny forum where maybe 100 women regularly post, not 24 hours can go by without fighting, giving sermons to people who don't agree with their VP's, snark, criticism and so on.

Women can almost never cordially agree or disagree unless they are with a group of friends who think alike on everything. This thread illustrates exactly the opposite of your post about women. The OP and those who feel she was put upon by some rude guy feel they are in the right and should not have had to move. Those who feel while sliding down might have been a minor inconvenience, they would have moved without any drama or negative body language and all would have been well are being chastised because they didn't give the OP she must have wanted when she posted this thread.

Sorry, but I most certainly did not post on any thread about a woman president. You have me confused with some other person who posts here. Hate to disappoint you. It was not I. I don't even remember seeing a thread title about a woman president. But if it makes you feel better about yourself, go ahead and think it. The attributes that you claim I said would not be the foremost ones I would use or even look for in a strong, decisive, tough female president any more than for a male president. Meanwhile, carry on with your vendetta. I'm done.

This is a day old thread that I am just now seeing. With almost 200 posts, I'm not going to go through the entire thread to read the comments. But just responding to the initial post, here is my answer.

For what it is worth, I would have offered to move without being asked. Of course! It's a counter, not a table. It's only polite to move over and make room. It is rude not too. It is also rude to act annoyed about even if you begrudgingly did move. The man asking was not the one who was rude.

Having said my piece, I realize that the last hundred or so posts are probably not even on the same topic now, LOL!

well, say whatever you want. Most threads that have even hint of politics get deleted, but it was there in some thread, not in the title.

As for your reference to a vendetta, really? Now we're using that kind of flawed logic to state a case? Why in the world would I or anyone else have a vendetta here because we stated our viewpoints on a thread? Now I'm done.

Perhaps the clod who insisted on her moving should have waited for a table.

Oh. Please.

I'm sure he was SHOCKED to have someone respond the way the OP did to a simple request (something that happens in crowded lunch counters and bars everywhere.)

Maybe the OP doesn't get out much and hasn't been to a crowded bar lately...and doesn't realize the etiquette of eating at a counter.

LM_O. But keep trying, y'all. It says a lot more about you than it does about me :-)

Yes, it sure does...

I for one am THANKFUL that there are so many that would err on the side of KINDNESS!

ETA- Mochachino- I read one of your responses earlier and thought it was GREAT! (has since been deleted)...

I had to go back and look and just saw which post was deleted. Funny how some posters around here have so much power with the webbies that when they push that button, poof goes your post. A lot of mine get poofed it seems, there is a contingency on here that report me for everything it seems.

And the funny thing is I didn't say anything against standards at all in that post. I merely quoted another poster who said it was wrong to ask someone to move and I asked how is it wrong? That gets deleted, yet I read through the thread again and see some people calling the guy in the diner an a-hole but that stays?
