I don't know what's worse, blowing a tire out or having a truck full of drunk men try to help. I'm sure their hearts were in the right place but I could do it in the time it takes them to stumble out of their vehicle.

I think the drunk men might be worse. Especially if they were driving their own vehicle.

They were annoying and a little sexist but not evil.

Mostly they kept falling over themselves.

But they were driving?

Driver wasn't drunk.

I'd have called the police after taking away their keys if he was.

I'd want to take their keys, but I'd be too scared. I would make the call.

Men seem to wish to come to the aid of supposed damsels in distress any time they are able to. Though the fact they were intoxicated seems to have complicated their attempts to help?

It was like herding cats.

I can imagine. Did it provide some amusement, at least?

That was about all they provided.

Were they all falling over while discussing how best to change the tire?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]imperator

Exactly. The sober driver apologized the whole time

At least someone apologized for all of that. I do hope that the drunk men were ushered away and you could fix the tire in peace?

I got it changed while they were arguing over their jack. For the wrong tire.

Of course they were arguing over the wrong tire. Such is what intoxicated men do when posed with a problem.

Or men in general.

Agreed. Men argue over the wrong details while women get things done.

Precisely so.

Men are 99% useless.

And even the 1% they are useful can be questionable. Many of them should never reproduce.

The world would be a better place. I've met maybe a few men that are tolerable and could be respected and one of those is only in my Dreams.

I have only known one or two men worthy of respect. They exist only in this life. There was maybe one in my Dreams, but even then it was partially because I feared him.

Fear is a bad sign.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]noonesfool

Considering his race tended to harvest mine and the other sentient races, the fear was more than earned. Though he learned to be better before he died.

Yeah, I'd have problems with that too.

It was not the best experience, though his time on Earth caused him to grow a fondness for all the sentient races. He wished to teach his people a better way to exist. However, his daughter saw this as weakness and took her chance to take power. Being eyed as someone else's meal is highly unsettling.

It takes more than one person to change society. It's a group effort.

[info]noonesfool

Indeed it is. I attempted to change my people's society on my own. It did not go well.

I'm sorry.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]noonesfool

At least I tried, though in the end I did get the change I wanted, which was equal power with my husband. So it was not a total loss.

Still better than nothing.

I would think the drunk men would definitely win the what is worse argument in this instance.

I'm thinking so.

At least they tried to help. Drunk men and a woman on her own don't always go well together.

No, they don't.

The driver was apologetic, the rest of them idiots.

Drink generally has that effect on people. Glad they didn't cause too much trouble though.

They could have ended up shot.

Fair enough. At least it didn't come to that.

I might have enjoyed that too much.
