Okay then.
For the sake of posterity we shouldn't force it down people's throats.
Is that better?
For the sake of
posterity?
What the hell do future generations have to do with it?
Listen, I couldn't care less if anyone
likes me. I'm a jackass; I admit it.
However, I have found that I get much better
results if I am impulsive, assertive, and pushy. Let me give you some examples.
1. I was at Wal-Mart, one day, getting some groceries. A man came up to me and told me that what I was getting wasn't good for me, and that I needed for vegetables. I got pissed off, but I ignored him. Later, as I was checking out, he came up to me and tried to give me a bag of canned vegetables. At that point, I said, "Ok, apparently, being nice hasn't worked, so let me try this approach: If you don't leave me alone, you will go to
jail for harassing me."
2. A few years ago, I was terminated from an occupation for a reason that was discriminatory. I did not just take this sitting down; I filed charges with the EEOC. At the EEOC mediation, I managed to get a contract for employment that was
so good, that, normally, only celebrities and executives typically get clauses like this (e.g. instead of the law telling me what I
can't be fired for, the contract told me what I
can be fired for), all because I was prepared to "shove" my beliefs about equal employment opportunity "down his throat."
He probably hated me (and probably still does; I later quit on my own accord), but I didn't give a rats ass about that. I cared about
results.
Crit, believe it or not, I'm not that hard to convince. I'd be happy to adapt your approach... if you can show me how being "nice" about it and waiting for the general public to become convinced will get the same
results as taking it to the court.
Keep in mind, it's about results.
RESULTS!
F*CKING RESULTS!
