Is this our badcarma, or theirs?

My pal Sandi shared a tale of badcarma that reminded me of something similar happening to me years ago.

She was walking in to a grocery store when some jokers in a heap of a car pulled up alongside her and leered at her then hollered that she was pretty good looking, for an older woman. OLDER WOMAN???! First, Sandi is gorgeous and second, she doesn't look, dress or act like an older woman at all! The losers had parked so she had to walk around them and they'd yelled loud enough for others to turn and stare. JEEZE!

Sandi, being a lady, ignored them and walked into the store. I probably would have gotten down on their level and given them a two-word response, each word containing a single syllable.

That reminded me of a time in college. Some girlfriends and I went to the liquor store (looking for highlighters or rulers or notepaper, I'm sure) and when we came out some losers in a junker were parked behind my friend so she couldn't pull out. They were jeering and hollering at my friend who was too scared to say anything back. So I walked over to the driver's side door and told them to move it or I was calling the cops. They were stunned and annoyed. As they pulled away, they yelled at me, "You're the ugliest f---ing girl in the world!" Over and over and over, as they drove away in the parking lot, as they got on the street, on into the night. My girlfriends from college still call me that when we get together.

Eh, those guys (the ones who jeered at me and Sandi) obviously have no sex lives. We should pity them. Their excessive badcarma obviously spills over from time to time. Poor, pathetic losers...
