Reply #70: Tell your stepdad to shut his socialist mouth. [View All]

No, not really- unless you want to have another huge fight, I mean.

But it works. I did that to my career Navy brother-in-law when he suggested I leave the country (in my own house, I might add), and it really sent his brain into a nosedive.

I told him "I don't want to hear a political lecture from some lifelong socialist, who's sucking the government tit and condemning big government at the same time. If you ever work up the nerve to try your hand at actually living in that free market you praise so much, I'll be interested in your perspective. Until then you're talking out of your ass".

Anybody can play the arrogant jack-ass (a fact that often catches full-time arrogant jack-asses off guard).
