Dear Insufferable Prick Who Cut Me in Line at the Post Office and, When Verbally Confronted, Blustered, Refused to Make Eye Contact, Offered Paltry Excuses, and Finally Said "Just Stay Put. You'll Be Fine." in the Most Enragingly Condescending Tone I Have Ever Heard:
I believe in karma. (Erectile dysfunction.) I believe in karma. (Neck snapping under the weight of your own entitlement.) I believe in karma. (Computer virus which installs kiddie porn on your work computer.) I believe in karma. (Ass-kicking at the hands of a twelve-year-old girl.) I believe in karma. (Burly, threatening man with time-consuming, but ultimately trivial, problem cuts you in line at the emergency room while you wait to be seen for what is discovered posthumously to be a rare, incredibly painful, but cureable form of food poisoning which you could have been saved from had you only received medical attention five minutes earlier.)
The Frothing, Seething Opposite of Love,
Hilatron
P.S. Stay put? Stay PUT?!?! Fuck you, fucking fuckwit.

I almost committed multiple homicides multiple times for their utterly maddening incomprehension of the concept of lines. Of course, I was considered the asshole with my murderous glaring for no apparent reason as far as they were concerned, but what could I do.

I reached a point in the Stay-Put Situation where I was literally speechless with rage. If I weren't such a wimp I would probably just have hit him, so I guess it's just as well I'm a wimp.
