A question of morality and "schadenfreude"..... |
|
Whenever Obama doesn't win a state, my sister (a Hillary supporter) calls me up to say "too bad". She's a big Patriots fan. Now, if they lose today, would it be really evil of me to giver her a little ringy-dingy?

I used to have a relative who would ring me up when the Skins lost...Sometimes at halftime, and then the Skins would come back to win and I would ring that person up and go :HAAHAHAHAHAHA! If you can dish it out, you better damn well be able to take it.;-)

3. You should call her and say, |
|
"Oh, how sad, the Patriots did a Hillary!" and then hang up real fast.
You'll be a better person for it. (This, of course, all hinges on the Patriots losing.)

4. Depends on your relationship with your sister. If you BOTH can laugh about it, that's cool. |
|
If not, I wouldn't put a close relationship on the line for the sake of a "gotcha."
*Disclaimer: I have a Republican sister 11 months younger than me whom I must handle with kid gloves. Regardless of the party of the president or the majority in Congress, she's gonna be my sister for many years to come. I gotta take the high road with my little sister, even when she doesn't.

6. Never taunt the other guy. Never rub it in no matter how much |
|
the other guy did it to you. That is the best revenge. 'Yeah you deserve a big HAHAHAHAHAHA! MFer, instead I give you NADA!'
Cannot beat that. They know you are the bigger person. Damn, sucks for them!
