To find this bloke a cunt?

Was out front of my house putting recycling out earlier, and had to shoo my usually road-sensible cat out of the road because she was sat in the middle of it yelling at me over some perceived slight (she's half Siamese, I get a lot of grief) and a car was coming.

Car stopped in the road, bloke wound his window down, chuckling, and said "You were lucky she moved. I don't like cats!", gunned his engine, and drove off, still chuckling.

Yes, hilarious, flangeface.

Why are people such utter cunts? We lost a cat to traffic in July. It's very unusual round here, it's a quiet village, and we thought we were just really really unlucky, but maybe someone did it on purpose because they hate cats.

I would find it funny, sorry.

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 12/10/2012 16:46

Funny the number of dead animals you see on the road yet in 20 years of driving I have never hit a cat, badger, pheasant or fox.

Some of them must be hit on purpose.

BettySwollocksandaCrustyRack · 12/10/2012 16:47

I think you are being a bit over sensitive....was just a joke and at least he stopped.

I often say that I like kids but I couldn't eat a whole one.....now wondering if that makes me a cunt as well Hmm

Pendeen · 12/10/2012 16:49

It was a joke.

His sense of humour was not to your taste. That's all. That's life.

YABU.

OhlimpPricks · 12/10/2012 16:50

I wonder if he shops at counting sainsburys.....

OhlimpPricks · 12/10/2012 16:50

I wonder if he shops at cunting sainsburys.....

BrittaPerry · 12/10/2012 16:52

I don't drive - would you know if you ran over a small animal?

AgentZigzag · 12/10/2012 16:52

Hehe, I've just read your post again Ariel, you meant the person hit them on purpose, not the animals were there on purpose Grin Grin

I've got to stop skim reading.

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 12/10/2012 16:53
Grin

I was puzzling over it to be honest.

I have hit a rabbit before.

AgentZigzag · 12/10/2012 16:55

On purpose??? You cunt!

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 12/10/2012 16:56

not the first time I've been called a cunt on MN.

monkeysbignuts · 12/10/2012 16:57

i am sure it was just a joke and how would he know you lost a cat.

WorraLiberty · 12/10/2012 16:57

Ariel were you driving at the time or do you just go round randomly hitting bunnies? Grin

You don't have to answer that without a Solicitor present

AgentZigzag · 12/10/2012 16:57

Although he was probably at rock bottom having found his bunny wife with his bunny brother, so don't feel too bad, it's what he wanted

ChickensHaveNoEyebrows · 12/10/2012 16:58

He's not a cunt based on that little exchange. He was being friendly, in his way. Unless he said it with a murderous glare while gunning the engine. He is also probably not psychic, and therefore knows nowt about you losing your other cat.

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 12/10/2012 16:58

I am a keen bunny murderer.

WelshMaenad · 12/10/2012 16:58

I broke my 12 year run of never killing wildlife with my car last year when I ran over a sparrow. I was inconsolable. I think myself and my divaish semiSiamese are very well suited indeed. (she is gorgeous, Zigzag, Siamese build/coat but black and white).

I accept that IABU and apologise profusely for calling the poor beleagured driver a cunt. I STILL don't think it was very funny but am probably just oversensitive because of what happened to the ginger ninja.

Still no takers for my ex boyfriend?

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 12/10/2012 16:59

Did you CALL him a cunt? Shock

WelshMaenad · 12/10/2012 17:00

Not to his face, so unless he reads Mumsnet he's blissfully ignorant. I'm not THAT much of a fucking diva mostly

OP posts:
JamieandtheMagicTorch · 12/10/2012 17:01

I don't think the joke's very funny. Not getting on high horse ( ) but it's a bit of a twatty thing to say, IMO. So, less cunt, more twat

ArielThePiraticalMermaid · 12/10/2012 17:02

That's alright then the cunt.

JamieandtheMagicTorch · 12/10/2012 17:02

he probably has a sign above his desk that says "you don't have to be mad to work here, but it helps"

squoosh · 12/10/2012 17:02

Twatty is different to cunty. Twunty is the territory where the two meet.

JamieandtheMagicTorch · 12/10/2012 17:05

squoosh

or what about Pratty?

We used to play a game Twat, Prat or Cat?

Think of random celebrity and decide which they are ("Cat" being someone cool)

So, for example: Richard Madeley - twat, prat or cat?
