To the hobo who’s been kicking around downtown: I can deal with creepy men hitting on me in public, but when you get so close I can smell your awful hobo breath, turn around to GAWK at my ass and slur “Daaaaamn” or “Ohhhh” or any of the above, it’s really fuckin’ gross.
I will now be carrying some form of aerosol can with me on all of my downtown adventures, and next time you get too close you’re getting it in the eyes. —Calamity

Use Lysol. He’ll be so thrilled that someone bought him a drink, he’ll forget to press charges.
wow baby, you are really fucking uptight today. man, chill the fuck out, and let dude ogle you. if he touches you, different story.if it was me, and you did that, well your ass would be in court so fast, you would wonder how it got there.
now don’t get me wrong, accosting someone on the street is one thing, looking and making a comment is quite another.the old adage,”look, but don’t touch”, applies here. maybe he should get cleaned up, and then try again?
but as i said, saying and doing are two different things. if i was to take offence at everyone that came near me, then i would go and get a motherfucking big plastic bubble to live in.
it’s a waste of time to bitch about it, take a pic on your phone, i know you have to have one, and give it to the cops, if he persists in approahing you. other than that, have a nice day.
I wonder, like was mentioned previously, if this guy was a well dressed man would you feel equally as repulsed? Or is it simply because this guy is a little (or a lot?) rough around the edges? I’m sure we’ve all had someone throw comments our way at one point or another. Keep your head up and keep on walking. Odds are this guy is just looking for a reaction from you. Unless he lays a hand on you pay him no attention and carry on with your day.
Spray him with that shit cologne from Dollarama. Hell, he might even drink it! Now that would be entertainment.
Reminds me of an old joke The Weedhog told here once:
Q) Why does aqua velva come in different colours?
A) So panhandlers can enjoy shooters, too.
I miss The Hog >: (
What ever happened to dear old Weedy anyway?
We haven’t heard from him since early spring, OC. I don’t think he left because of the firefighter dustup, but….?
busted?
Isn’t interweb access for inmates guaranteed under The Charter? *poit*
That’s a nice sentiment there OB, assault someone because you don’t like them.
I find your attitude offensive and bigoted, does that mean that I’m entitled to slap you in the head? No? Didn’t think so.
Maybe “Daaaaamn” or “Ohhhh” were just a comment about the skidmarks on you white lululemons.
OB – get over yourself.
I probably should have waited, till I’m in a better mood, to post. Meh.
Let your hate flow through you, Darth Hugo.
You are in a bad mood Hugo. Sorry about your ex. sorry about your bad day.
Thanks RC, I should probably take my own advice, and have a nsa romp.
No, come to the Dark Side. We have cookies.

I’m in!
Ooooohhhhh Yeeeeaaaah!
I googled NSA romp….but I just got a bunch of personal ads..lol. Then I figured it out…I’m really blond 🙂
There’s a lot of great people in this world…but so many are damaged from past relationships that it’s hard to weed the good ones out from the bad. No one is perfect, and good people make mistakes too. Hope you try out those dances I told you about – also try the Nfld’ers club in Dartmouth – I love Nfld women!!
That’s no fair…cookies get me every time!
Yep – though my nsa experience post traumatic relationship led me to the sweetest most wonderful guy I’ve ever known. So besides the obvious benefits, ya never know, there could be others. 🙂
RC, I couldn’t find the dance you first refered to, did you mean the H****day Inn?
Chocolate Chip cookies or a 6ft brunette, hummm, let me think….
sorry my hair is mostly grey now and i don’t make chocolate chip cookies^^^
Yes I do mean that dance. Everyone I’ve sent there has ended up in relationships….my dad found a really great catch!
Who’s the 6ft brunette…..chicks over sweets any day! 🙂
Wasn’t Mr. Shabby was it? Mr. Ken Shabby?

If it was he’d have propositioned the OP with something romantic like “Oi ‘avn’t ‘ad it in weeks”
by the way gang, who ordered this fucking pizza, can’t get it in a box, so i’m gonna eat it myself.
Lifesucks Vs. Food. Today @ 4:00 on OLN.
I love that show…but it either makes me really crave foods….or vomit a little.
My BF is into those challenges….he went to a Bedford pub on the weekend and ate there challenge in 20 mins – 6 patty burger. I would be sick eating all that meat.
good lord suckster, i thought it was one of your puzzles til i clicked on it. hey, a round pizza puzzle not a bad idea
http://buffetoblog.files.wordpress.com/200…
they did one of those puzzles a number of years back, 5,000 pieces no less. the one i liked was the hay in a needle stack. it was really hard to do.
Doesn’t make a difference how well or poor the man is dressed, but invading personal space and being that vocal about it is a dick move. Oogle discreetly guys. You too, ladies.
sorry 🙂
Is it a short guy with long hair and a mustache? Either way, punch him in the fucking testicles and calmly walk away.
