Sadly I love seeing some of them go into near melt down when their propaganda isn't swallowed whole---its comical in its own way.

Ya know just about every time I'm about to "go off" on someone (especially someone considerably younger) I think that to myself---its stopped me many a time from look exactly like one of those.

I'm president of a local bass club and had a problem with a member a couple of months back. He's got a big mouth and I attempted to quieten him so the meeting could commence. He went off on me and I sat there without saying a word. I did stare a hole though him, but when he finally ran out of steam he was the one that looked like the sad, old fool.

Vindication was mine when other members came up to me later and complimented me on how I'd handled it.

The great philosopher, Rene Descarte, is sitting at the bar.

The bartender comes up and asks, "Excuse me, Mr. Descarte, but it's last call. Would you like another beer?"

Descarte pauses for a moment and says, "I think not".

And disappears....

 

The old guy lives in a crappy house.

 

Yep---exactly my point! Let 'em run out of steam, endure them just to see if they have a follow-up plan!

You did well IMHO----not to quibble though it would have been "better" had others in the meeting had spoken up in real time. None the less you did a good job letting it simply wear itself out.

 

They can bring their own bucket.

 

People won't disappoint you if you don't expect much from life.
