I think someone said Not Always Right entries and the like can't be submitted to the main site, so why not have a topic here just for that?Here's hoping someone gets killed in the line of duty. You do not call a man's soon to be wife a whore like that. EVER.

This one (http://notalwayslearning.com/this-instructor-is-on-a-slippery-slope/31937) involves no fundies. But it does involve me, a dangerously idiotic ski instructor, and my mom being her awesome self.
Also, I love any story where the idiot is the one to call the cops, only to get arrested themselves!

While I don't have a strong reaction to the word "gypped" on account of most people not even knowing that it's a racial slur, I do get rather insulted if people directly attack the Romani. Since they were targeted in the Holocaust along with the Jews, I feel that we ought to look out for each other.
I have an obligation to state this, having quite a few Romani friends: Opre Roa.
'Roa rise'. In short, Romani need to stand on their own two feet, and stop being kicked around by everybody else as a handy scapegoat... and rein in all of their number that DO give them the 'thieving, filthy, underhanded scumbags' reputation that's semi-warranted in Europe.
I have a story from a Finnish friend of mine. Went into the hospital for a few tests, there was a Roa family in the room next to him. On his way out, a couple hours later, he got a look into the other room. Family was gone. Along with EVERYTHING in the room. Mattress, machines, medical supplies... it'd been stripped bare. That's what Romani should be standing against, but when you're being used as the useful target by EVERYBODY... well, I can understand the ill will, sometimes.

I think I managed to talk her out of it, but I'm not totally sure. Poor kitties.

I've heard the argument that there are brands of cat food that are either nearly without meat or completely meatless. So either someone has made a marketing scheme out of this or making cat food without using meat (and instead getting all the necessary whatnots from other sources and artificial means) is cheap enough to compete with meat products.Guys I think my ability to suspend disbelief just got entirely ruptured, because this is so insane that I can't.

No, but treating the staff like they exist to serve you does. If my manager's there, she might say "make sure they come back" which is code for "add the asshole surcharge". If she's not, we leave a note and she reviews the incident on the cameras. If she doesn't agree with our assessment of someone's douchebaggery, she refunds the customer out of our paychecks.These people exist?Yes, they do. I once had to make a BEEF taco pizza WITH NO BEEF. Dude didn't want a vegetarian pizza because "vegetarian is jus' Indian for 'bad hunter'", he wanted a beef taco pizza with no beef. He got a vegetarian taco pizza and a $6 asshole surcharge.
Adding beef to a pizza costs $6?
Wait... there is a literal asshole surcharge!?Yep, it's awesome. It directly encourages good customer service to jackasses (revenge is sweet!) while discouraging them to come and bother us again. The "if I disagree with you the refund come outa your paycheck" discourages abuse/overuse. Apparently my manger was a bartender for a while and the bar she worked at had a "jackass surcharge" of $20 or 25% of your tab (whichever seemed appropriate) if you were too annoying to go unpunished but not disruptive enough to get a bouncer.
That is so cool. The best that I could ever do was give people decaf instead of regular espresso when I was a Barnes & Noble barista. This is better.
How do you explain the additional charge to the customer? Do you actually say something to the extent of, "That's $35.95 of the pizza, plus $6 for being a dick, which brings your total to $41.95."By pressing the "delivery charge" button thrice, which displays a generic "surcharge" to the customer. The old guard can remember a couple instances where the customer questioned it, but the cashier just played dumb.

Some of the stories involving Christians are fake, too.
The problem is that the atheist in this story isn't talking like a real human being. No one actually talks like that. He's talking like how "Poor Oppressed Christians" think atheists talk like. That's why I say it's fake.
