Bernie Mac is a jack ass
(Category:
Short Stops

Okay, I admit that there is a small possibility that it wasn't actually Bernie Mac who wouldn't even give the courtesy of "The Wave" when I let him out of the Arby's parking lot onto the highway. As a co-worker pointed out there's a high probability that Bernie Mac doesn't drive a beat up late model Oldsmobile. Then again if he's getting paid according to the acting ability he's displayed in recent films he just might be. The googly eyes were funny 10 years ago, Bernie. Now go buy yourself a new shtick.
Sure looked like him anyway.

Speaking of being annoying and rude:
Isn't jackass one word?
Ordinarily yes. In this case it was a play on words.
You see, a "jack" is a sailor (like in "Cracker Jack", eh?). Sailors are also known as tars. Everybody remembers the story about the tar baby, right?
So as you can plainly see, I was involved in a derogatory racist insult, not a simple spelling error.
Another thing that really pisses me off is people who just can't admit that they made a damned mistake and build some convoluted bullshit excuse for it.
But as far as bullshit excuses go, that one was amazing. Are they really known as tars? Humph. But it was mostly amazing because you're willing to be outed as a racist (even if you aren't) if it means you get to be right. That is true dedication.
Gotta have priorities.
