Sharp Kick to the Groin

Talk about a sharp kick to the groin, or a salted knife in the back...  someone whom I thought was a good friend used the term "faggot ass fucker" in describing a relative on a smoke break.  Granted the offensive relative sounds like a real piece of work, but it hurt none the less.  Thinking back, I don't remember the last time I heard derogatory words used that hit so close to home.  In a perfect world, I would have called her on the spot, and gotten an apology.  Instead, I let it slide...  either due to the fact that I think (thought) of her as a close friend, and there were several folks at our smoke shack.  Could also be that I feel like shit from the new meds, and didn't feel like enduring much drama today.

Letter to Dear Abby

Dear Abby:

I am a crack dealer in New Jersey who has recently been charged with selling to children at a nearby elementary school.

My parents live in a suburb of Philadelphia and one of my sisters, who lives in Bensenville, is married to a porn dealer.

My father and mother have recently been arrested for growing and selling marijuana and are currently dependent on my other two sisters who are prostitutes in Jersey City.

I have two brothers. One is currently serving a non-parole life sentence in Attica for murdering a teenage boy in 1994. The other brother is currently being held in the Wellington Remand Center on charges of neglecting his three children.

I have recently become engaged to marry a former Thai prostitute who lives in the Bronx and, indeed, is still a part-time "working girl" in a brothel. Her time there is limited, however, as we hope to open our own brothel with her as the working manager. I am hoping my two sisters would be interested in joining our team. Although I would prefer them not to prostitute themselves, it would get them off the street, and, hopefully, the heroin.

My problem is this: I love my fiance and look forward to bringing her into the family, and of course, I want to be totally honest with her.

Should I tell her about my cousin who voted for Bush?

Signed,

Worried About My Reputation
