Yes, Bitch with a capital B, and make no mistake about
that. Though he let it fly verbally once in a while, he mostly thought the name. I could tell from the
look in his eyes that’s what he was thinking. Then he left no doubt toward the
end of the marriage when he started saying it out loud in public.
Funny thing: Pussy-Hat Wearing Politically Correct
Liberal Democrat RINO Socialist Fascist Commies[1]
and certain Jazz Kittens[2]
share The Ex’s opinion of the reader’s favorite[3]
Autodidact Polymath Magnificently Methodical Southern Women and The Most
Brilliant Woman In The World. And just like I told The Ex when he called me the
B-word, I am willing to tell them all with relish and glee, “That’s my name.
Don’t wear it out.”
I say I am willing
to do it as if I haven’t done it. That is correct. And the reason I haven’t
done it is because, well, for years I let myself be guided by this philosophy,
namely: One shouldn’t pick on people with learning disabilities and, it became
clear to me, that as an Autodidact Polymath Magnificently Methodical Southern
Women and The Most Brilliant Woman In The World, compared to me everybody has
learning disabilities. So, I made it an operational guideline to simply smile
indulgently when the not-so-well-thought-out insults came and to thank them for
their most learned opinion.[4]
That worked for many years. And by worked I mean fights and murder were avoided.[5]
But dang it all to aitch, ee, double hockey sticks and back, I wasn’t having
any fun, and further was constantly being mistaken for an easy target by
bullies which finally prompted me to ask, “Angela, is this really how you want
to live the rest of your life?” And the answer was no, it was not.
But what was missing?
It took me a while to realize what it was and in this I
would like to thank “That 70s Show” for reminding me about “The Art of the
Comeback”. The TV show was filmed in the 2010s but accurately represented a
time before Political Correctness in all its glorified absurdity came to rule
human conversation.[6]
It is clear the show’s creators lived during that time and were familiar in a
firsthand way with that art, now almost lost.
Of course, before we can bring back an art, we must
first understand how that art disappeared. More specifically, why. Let’s walk
through it. It started when three things came into being at the same time. One:
An eroding of the use of Yes, ma’am, No, ma’am, Thank you, and please.
Two: Children calling adults by their first names instead of the use of the
titles Mr., Mrs., or Miss. Three: The rise of the fake Socialist[7]
professor in academe. And four: The promotion of the notion that to care meant nobody ever got their
feelings hurt.
Let’s start with one: There came a point where to use
these social niceties was thought of as rude and, in some cases, arrogant.[8]
All of a sudden it seemed people were ordering other people around. The
difference between “Please, sir, pass the salt and pepper” and “Pass the salt
and pepper” is huge. Like, Grand Canyon huge. Like, Master-to-Slave huge. If
the resulting disuse of these niceties didn’t make more class distinctions,
then I don’t know what could.
Number two: I was aghast the first time an adult told
my children to call them by their first name and immediately whipped my head
toward the issue of my loins and said, “You will address her as Mrs. Smith[9],
I don’t care what she tells you to do, you understand me?”
Mrs. Smith then turned to me and with nose in air and a
self-righteous sniff proceeded to explain to me how I was hurting the
self-esteem of my child by not making them equal to adults at which point I
said, “Mrs. Smith, you want to adopt them and pay all their bills? No? Then
shut up and let me teach my children good manners. Thank you.”[10]
Mrs. Smith was offended and let me know. I asked if it would make it all better
if I was to say it all again but use her first name.
She walked away in a huff.
Number three: Furthering the problem[11]
was the insidious placement of Soviets in the American school system. Yes, the
KGB specially trained certain of their patriots to pretend to be anti-Soviet
and to seek asylum in the U.S. Of course, these fake dissidents offered the
CIA, FBI, and other alphabet government agencies just enough secret information
that they were rewarded with cushy tenured positions in all the best schools
across the land. They then identified the forerunners of our current iteration
of dissidents, the P-HWPCLDRSFC, recruiting them via sneaky means[12]
to push their agenda on U.S. campuses by shoving it down the throats of
students afraid they would not graduate if they disagreed with the prof.
And finally, number four: The promotion of the notion that to care meant nobody ever got their feelings hurt. Little known fact: Without any irony on their part, this notion began to be promoted on university campuses by professors who honed the art of bullying their students while requiring those same students to think that all opinions carried the same weight except the professors’ were weightier, and that one must never use certain words and phrases[13] or else people would think the student didn’t care! Whole sitcoms[14] were built around this concept, thus pushing the Soviet messaging through a capitalist ad-supported medium.[15]
Now that we know the history of how we came to where we
are, let us return to the revival of “The Art of the Comeback” and how that is
looking in our popular culture.
It all began when Donald “The Hammer” Trump decided he
would run for president of the United States. Democrats, Radical Feminists,
professors (retired or still teaching), and their acolytes humored the Orange
One, as they named Trump, and smiled at him indulgently while gently saying
things like “He just has no idea how silly he is. He has no chance to win the
Republican nomination much less ever getting elected against our royalty…we
mean, Hillary.”
Oh, the sweet scorn fairly flowed down their mountain
tops in the form of headlines in all newspapers, major or otherwise, tweets by
pundits, magazine covers, learned articles in serious publications, whole books,
and on television with nightly reports on how “The Donald”, a former reality
show star, had not even a snowball’s chance on a loaded barbeque grill in the South
on the Fourth of July. Until, that is, Trump won the Republican nomination.
That is when the previously caring Left, RINOs[16], Deep State, and The Bigs of the Mainstream Media took off their gloves and put brass knuckles on each hand and came out swinging. Oh, the names they called him went a-flying around the world. Even leaders of other countries opined about Trump. What none of them counted on was Trump’s reaction.
See, the Left, RINOs[17],
Deep State, and The Bigs of the Mainstream Media have been so used to being
obeyed that when they told “The Hammer” to stop pretending he could win the
election and he didn’t quit, they were horrified, aghast, sickened, depressed,
and, in two famous instances, were left speechless on air. Attacks on Trump
went from bad to “now we’re serious and we will destroy you.”
So, why haven’t those attacks against Trump worked like
planned? Because Donald is the king of the comeback. He’s so good at it, you
would think he had written the book “The Art of the Comeback” instead of that
other one.[18]
Then came the time when Trump didn’t wait for his enemies to strike first with
their poutin’ and whinin’, and instead had tweet after tweet of snarky comeback
bait awaiting them when they woke in the morning. Now who was behind in the
news cycle? Now who was messing with their little minds? Huh?
Yeah, that’s right. Of course, what was humorous was
that the Left, RINOs, Deep State, and The Bigs of the Mainstream Media didn’t
have any comebacks at all. Not a one. Not one single retort that anybody cared
to talk about.[19]
We know this because the media was not quoting each other but was quoting Trump
all day long because it was only then their sagging Nielson ratings and paper
circulations went up.
Trump’s tweets and speeches and eye rolls and such,
even as his wife tried to make nice, gave hope to millions — I misspeak! —
billions of people around the world who said, “Hey, I can do that and bring
back some clear thinking in my neighborhood.” And they are doing that. Why,
just the other day I heard a young man say to a young woman, “Woman! What’s the
matter with you? You on the rag?”[20]
And the reason that young man felt empowered to say
such as that to a Radical Feminist acolyte was because Trump has said something
similar to Little Dear Leader, also known as Little Rocket Man by millions now
that Trump named him. Isn’t that just cool and great and so…so…real and human?
Yes, it is.
The comeback restores equilibrium by telling bullies,
and others who are out of control, that there are limits and they will abide by
them or else suffer the consequences.
See? Comebacks are cheaper than war, and when done
properly makes the murder count go way down. Chicago and Detroit could use lessons in “The Art of
the Comeback.” God knows nothing else is working for them.
[1]
Often referred to by its acronym: P-HWPCLDRSFC.
[2] Yes, the reader has deduced correctly that this may, in point of fact, be a redundancy with the preceding statement as most Jazz Kittens are P-HWPCLDRSFCs.
[3] P-HWPCLDRSFCs and The Ex do not hold the author in the same favored status nor do they recognize the overall talent and genius that is she. They are such limited thinkers.
[4] The author has found this method does have a sharp bite at the end of it for them because often the people to whom she grants a thank you then believe she approves of their comment, if not outright agrees with it, and they are always mighty surprised to later find out she does not.
[5] The author agrees that murder was a bit of a stretch, but for the sake of making a point — and to remind you that you did not know The Ex — she feels it was perfectly acceptable to say that.
[6] By “human conversation” the author means First World countries with strong state-funded systems of education, from elementary to college and the spectrum in between, which insidiously inserted Socialist thinking coupled with “Caring” thus rendering null and void the part of conversation known as “The Burn” or “The Comeback”.
[8] The author notes the reader’s point: Arrogant and rude are the same, so the statement seems redundant. However, while rudeness is embodied in arrogance, arrogance itself embodies conceit, snobbery, and condescension from those with lots of money and high place in society, whereas poor people can be rude in their own way.
[9] Not her real name.
[10] The author has lost touch with Mrs. Smith and has never cared to find out where that Socialist witch is anyway. However, the author did find out that twenty years after this incident, Mrs. Smith became Mr. Smith and then donned a red pussy hat and marched in the streets beside his sisters. As a female, Mrs. Smith preferred men so as a woman she was straight. But now as a man she still prefers men and therefore has ticked another inclusive box as a gay man.
[11] The author chose to use this negative word on purpose, though some general managers of car dealerships and other sales directors would prefer the use of the word challenge.
[12] Flattery, alcohol, drugs including LSD, Timothy Leary and other guru types, calling them by their first names except when in bed and then using their title in a sexy voice, and so forth, so that while at work on campus Martha and Mark taught class, but at night when they were boinking each other’s brains out they were My Wittle ProfessOR and DOCtor FEELgoooood.
[13]
The author is not going to list those words/phrases as the reader would be
bored out of their gourd with reading a list of 5974 words/phrases — and still
growing.
[14] The reader may recall a famous episode in a show called “Seinfeld” whose most famous line was “Not that there’s anything wrong with that.” This line can still be heard coming from the mouths of Millennials who have never heard of Jerry Seinfeld, thereby making the case for the Soviet’s success in infiltrating the U.S.
[15] Ruskies are way sneakier than anybody.
[16] Republicans In Name Only.
[17] Republicans In Name Only, in case you forgot.
[18] “The Art of the Deal”, which was a stupid book, but he sold a bunch of them, so maybe not so stupid after all?
[19] The best it ever got was when Anderson Cooper replied on air to a Trump tweet when he said, “Oh, yeah? Well…ummm…well.”
[20] The author is lying. She did not hear this, but it is funny and she says you just wait and see if that doesn’t come back into popular usage making her a prophetess so that her full title will be Autodidact Polymath Prophetess Magnificently Methodical Southern Women and The Most Brilliant Woman In The World.

Motive and method always determine whether a thing is good
or bad. For instance, taking a knife and cutting a body open. Good or bad?
Depends. Are you being attacked and someone is attempting to torture and kill
you? Or has an interior body part ceased functioning and you are dying and to
save your life that part must be reached through surgery to be repaired or
removed?
Both scenarios above involve pain and usually make a big
mess, but the outcomes are different. One is good. One is bad. In the former, you
say thank you. In the latter, you beg to be let go.
You see? Determining factors are motive and method.
Which brings us to these:
1. Most claiming to have an open mind are close-minded.
2. Most asserting they are free thinkers, do not recognize any shade of gray.
3. Most who say they are ruled by first principles deny the existence of the biggest
first principle of all, the Creator.
First principle thinking is a process by which one seeks
to break down a problem to its simplest elements in order to find a solution.
First principle thinking always asks why until why can’t be asked any more. This
process began with Aristotle. Elon Musk talks about it a lot, too, but even he
doesn’t understand how to apply it because, much to the aggravation buyers of Teslas,
he doesn’t have any overhead handholds even after they’ve begged for them
because they are helpful.
But, enough of Elon.
The Founding Fathers of the United States of America
practiced first principle thinking. The Constitution and Bill of Rights of the
United States are first principle documents.
The first principle of both documents is freedom for
citizens of the U.S. How can it be guaranteed? How can it be protected? How can
assaults against it can be rebuked and corrected?
Well, the 2020 election (both national, state, and local) counts
were hijacked, commandeered, stolen. When both SCOTUS, federal, district, and
state courts refused to allow evidence into their courts and put the burden,
nay, the obligation, to defend freedom by demanding free and fair election
where the Constitution had decreed — with the legislatures of the states who
had the massive cheating. And when those state legislatures refused to do their
jobs in a timely fashion or at all.
Then according to the Constitution the people had a right to
peaceably assemble and have their grievances acknowledged and be solved.
You see? The citizens understand first principle thinking.
And so, after and when elected leaders failed to do their
jobs correctly, failed to explain the process to the people, ignored testimony
given to state elections subcommittees, on January 6, 2020, many thousands
peaceably assembled to have their voices heard at the Nation’s capital. Yes, a
very few got overheated and knocked down barriers and pushed their way into the
building, but the vast majority did not do that. The absolute vast majority
remained calm yet demanding that their elected leaders get their head out of
their ass and do the right thing.
Yet those bastions of ignoring first principles, also known
as #CrunkNewsNetwork and #LegacyMedia and those with #TDR [Trump Derangement
Syndrome] and just about every Commie and all dictators, proceeded to say that
the 01/06/2020 peaceable assembly was worse than all the destruction of
property, cities, and lives that were done in several woke U.S. cities by fire,
bricks, bats, brass knuckles, and the shut down of the economy.
In fact, #CrunkNewsNetwork and #LegacyMedia and those with
#TDR and just about every Commie and all dictators claiming to be for the
people, encouraged the destruction by calling these riots peaceful protests. A
rose by any other name, right? In the meantime, the people were hurt worse.
I so want to use ironic quotes around that phrase, so here
goes: “peaceful protests”. Whew, I feel better.
Of course the #CrunkNewsNetwork and #LegacyMedia and those
with #TDR and just about every Commie and all dictators wouldn’t know a
peaceful protest if it bit them in the ass.
You see?
Can’t see the ballots nor recount nor confirm process or
method, citizens are told. Citizens ask WHY?
And they keep asking why until they get an answer that is
true. And if that answer is that what was done was done to push something onto Citizens
that Citizens would never choose. Leading to what?
Why, leading to #CrunkNewsNetwork and #LegacyMedia and those
with #TDR and just about every Commie and all dictators changing their minds
about the usefulness of and necessity for our men and women [so sue me, Grandma
Pelosi] in blue. Who would’ve thought you’d hear these people say “Back The
Blue”?
But where am I leading to?
I’m leading to the point that so many people, well-meaning
but obviously not first principle thinkers, are calling the January 6, 2020,
peaceful assembly — also known as the exercising of their Constitutional right to
demand legitimate grievances are addressed within the existing lawful system — an
insurrection, as if that is always a bad thing.
Messy? Yes. Not perfectly done? Possibly. Could it be worse?
Oh, yeah…especially if they are ignored.
Remember the knife and cutting mentioned earlier? Method and
motive always determine the rightness or wrongness of any action and outcome. Insurrection
is not a bully attack on innocent people. It is surgery to save a nation.
Trump’s actions against politicians and other bullies who
have been trodding on citizens’ rights reminds one of the scripture that says: "Wounds
inflicted by a friend are faithful, but many kisses from a hater are
deceitful." Proverbs 27:6
Orange Man Bad because why? Tells the truth? Fights for what
is right? Doesn’t kowtow to Commie PC? Speaks plainly? Is nonconformist and outlandish?
Whereas “Creepy Uncle Who Am I?” is good because why?
Promises big checks and lots of goodies? Doesn’t mind lying non-stop to tickle
your ears? Has no problem twisting the truth to fit his facts? Fights for his
pocketbook to be lined even if to do so means he promotes destruction of
freedom?
Or, as Aretha Franklin put it so well, who’s zoomin’ who?
