It's been 2 weeks, I apologized to the Toyota salesman
I went to the dealership salesroom today. I found the guy I was looking for. He barely remembered me. He said he heard a lot more profanity from others compared to my family friendly comments. I explained I'd been in sharp neck pain and was on narcotics. Plus dealing with mom when she can't comprehend she is a danger to herself living alone in her senior apartment. He understood and said people aren't used to a test ride pitch on the mall sidewalk.
We shook hands.
A few DUers were correct I lashed out at this guy over other things bothering me.
To my friends living in their parents basement that read me regularly, I've noticed some of the same verbiage here used by those in the basement chat room.

While shopping at the mall a saleman asked "would we like to test drive a Toyota?"
When a simple "NO" wasn't enough, he got a blast from both of us his other prospects could all hear. I hope he learned his lesson for the rest of the weekend sale.
Japan didn't extend it's clunker program to US cars.
Some models not made in North America.
Profit goes mostly to Japan.
Lingering questions about safety.
Union organizing drives have been treated unfairly according to the National Labor Relations Board. It was chilly and I had my AFSCME wind breaker on.
He turned and made a get away with a brisk walk.

2. The thread has been removed, but it was copied onto another site as well
which I discovered with a quick google.

Cool he pointed his fellow moonbats to our site.
If you click the link it's a macro that googles it for you, it's kind of fun to watch. :-)

Blah Blah Blah
IF I feel good enough Sunday, I will be at ground zero of Occupy Omaha at noon. 72nd & Dodge St. is the busiest intersection in the entire state.
Hey Steve. I'm gonna be there too.
(anyone got a link to a picture of Steve? I need to recognize him. We so need a photo together!)

Hear that Steve? We're gonna get our picture together! Its just a pleasant 3 hour drive! And I'm gonna have a great sign too. I'm making it now. It says one thing, but when I face away from the crowd and a camera sees me, I can pull a string and it says something different. You won't know what it says until I publish that picture, and it goes viral on the net and your district...
You could be standing next to a sign that says something like, "Black America better vote Democrat...or else!"
Heck I might even get your autograph. You'll never see it coming. See ya there!

8. That was great of you to apologize, I bet you made the fellow's whole day.
Not enough people apologize and just doing a simple thing like that can make people feel better all around. GOOD for you! :thumbsup:

14. I asked the OP what was said, and was unhelpfully directed to
a conservative hate site with the "Let Me Google That For You" feature by someone other than the OP.
I wasn't able to figure out what happened from that disgusting site--it was just a bunch of nasty-ass, ignorant shits making fun of this forum in very childish fashion. Apparently the purpose of the site is to pick at what happens over here. Sort of a "They Have No Life" endeavor....I am annoyed that I gave them the click.
