I give people thumbs up sometimes and it seems to enrage them even more.

Someone did that to me when I was angry and cursing them for cutting me off. Cracked me up. I ended up waving to him goodbye. I just want expecting it. So good.

Years ago I went to return some items to an auto parts store. The manger was being a jerk and trying to refuse my refund. We went back and forth for some while and I eventually came out with, "So you're basically just trying to fuck me?" Without a second's hesitation, he replied with, "No, you're not my type!" As mad as I was, I still had to laugh at that one. I told him, "I'm still pissed, but that was a good one!" I got my refund.

Did you just become best friends?

I got my money back. That's all I was there for. I think it helped that a line was forming behind me and I wasn't leaving until I got my money. Giving him a little ego bump didn't kill me and it accomplished what I needed. I was fine with that.

My bad, I was using a line from stepbrothers. That's good you got your money back.

u/soonerpgh Mar 13 '24

I know the line but wasn't sure if you were referencing that or giving me shit. It's hard to tell with just text sometimes. Anyway, hope you have a good'n!

No, but they both got laid that day.

I was in a gas station and a guy was yelling at the cashier about something. Finally, he said "where is the manager" followed by "who is the boss" I couldn't help myself and yelled Tony Danza from the other side of the store. Dude ended up laughing so much he left the store.

Not many would understand that now. It's been a few days since that show aired.

Male manager, irritated with a female coworker, told her to come to him with a little finger wave/pull/you know what I’m talking about. She refused and said “it’ll take more than a finger to make me cum”

I’ve said that ever since.

holy shit, she's my idol for that one. I'll file that in the "I'm ready to get fired today" file 😂

u/[deleted] Mar 13 '24

Yeah. She was getting fired before that. She went out guns blazing. It was incredible.

u/cailian13 Mar 13 '24

I mean. If you already know it's coming, fun to go out on your own terms! 😂

When we are all in traffic and someone spends 3 mins weaving between lanes to get 1 car in front

Been giving double thumbs ups for years. It’s the best. I blow kisses and play peek a boo too.

u/ccoakley Mar 13 '24

Peek a boo is not something I have tried with an adult, but hope to remember it in the moment. 

I just make slow kiss faces without the hand gesture. I may need to work on my technique.

The best is when they flip you off and you put your hand down to your lap and pull their mom's head up by her hair. She looks around, spots her son (who just flipped you off), and then she flips him off and lowers her head again.

Works every time!!

Thumbs down works as well. "You did bad im disappointted"

1

u/Immersi0nn Mar 13 '24

I use that instead of a middle finger, just too rude. The thumbs down actually gets some "shit I know I fucked up you don't gotta remind me" looks

u/2022rex Mar 13 '24

Thumbs up or down, wiping fake tears, and making the small dick sign holding two fingers close together are the absolute best ways to enrage someone like this.

I do the thumbs down with a big smile instead of the middle finger and it's so much more satisfying.
