Hi, all. Question: What do you usually do when someone aggravates you just by existing?

I normally ask what to do on an internet forum.

I sense the dripping sarcasm...but there's a legitimate reason I asked that question.

Hi, all. Question: What do you usually do when someone aggravates you just by existing?

umm avoid them.

sounds like a similar mindset to someone else I knew...

What an ironic "comparison", especially since I'm a black guy. (smh)

Maybe I should explain why I asked the question in the first place. There's a certain lady who I have to interact with whenever I go to the local court to get stories for my newspaper...she manages to grate on my nerves by the simple fact that she talks incessantly, she constantly asks your opinion on EVERYTHING and doesn't let up even when you (tactfully) point out that you just don't have an opinion on the subject, she's overly sensitive and doesn't take criticism well, she gets upset when you point out that she needs to speak less and pay attention to what the judge and lawyers are saying, she gossips about people and shares all manner of stuff I would rather not hear, and then when she fails to listen to the judge and lawyers she turns around and asks for clarification on what they said - clarification that she could have had if she had just KEPT QUIET FOR FIVE MINUTES AND PAID ATTENTION. And avoiding her isn't an option since going to court for stories is part of my work beat, so inevitably I'm going to run into her. And if that wasn't bad enough, she calls me on the phone after court to ask for extra clarification on stuff that (wait for it) she could have heard if she had SHUT UP AND PAID ATTENTION.

That's my own unique situation, and so far I'm trying to bear with the situation (with clenched teeth, mind you). What I'm asking is, how many of you have, or have had, similarly annoying people in your daily lives and how do you/did you deal with them?

I just go onto the streets and take my rage out on street punks.

Well, I'll admit that playing SOR is pretty therapeutic and takes my mind off my problems It also helps for me to pray and also to keep busy with things that won't let my mind stray from what's important.

Ah, so it's not the fact that she exists, it's the fact that she does a lot of annoying things I'm just being a smartass, but now that you've fully explained the problem I can offer a better solution, or 3.

Solution A: Anonymous letter. Type up a kind letter carefully explaining the many things she's doing that bug you, and probably many other people. Leave it somewhere she'll find it with her name on it, and at the very least she'll become self-conscious about the things she's doing.

Possible Repercussion A: She might commit suicide.

Solution B: Ask her out on a date. She obviously likes you, otherwise she wouldn't talk to you so much and call you. If you're dating she has an opportunity to talk to you as much as she wants and get it all out of her system. And you have an opportunity to talk to her about the things she does that annoy you. Also, she can't talk much if her mouth is full...

Possible Repercussion B: She denies you and it get's awkward (but less talking is a +), OR she get's angry about the things you bring up and airs out all of your personal business in public, OR she falls deeply in love with you and has endless things to say.

Solution C: Be an asshole. Nobody want's an assholes opinion, nobody wants to talk to an asshole, and absolutely nobody will call an asshole to ask for anything.

Possible Repercussion C: She reports it to your boss and you get fired, OR she begins make public insults and talks about you behind your back.

Hmm...well, considering what I'd put in the anonymous letter, she'd know it was from me...the date idea is OUT OF THE QUESTION, since the very idea of being with her is icky to me because she's actually older than me (plus she's already got a boyfriend anyway)...and she already thinks I'm a jerk-ass anyway.

AGH! Dating her...image squicky...must get brain bleach!!!!!!!!!!

Well you could always frame her for murder.

Can't breathe, must. stop. reading.

Nah, I'm not that evil. And following some advice from my editor about the same woman yesterday afternoon, I'll have to tighten my bootstraps a bit more when it comes to dealing with her.

Now, on to other things...I don't know if this has been addressed anywhere on this forum or elsewhere on the site already, but this morning while I was on the bus coming to work, I started pondering which actors would be the best ones to star in an SOR movie (this being based on one or two fake SOR movie trailers I've seen on Youtube, and no, no relation to the "supposed" 1994 SOR movie). The ones I came up with for the different roles are listed below, as well as why I picked them:

- Ryan Gosling as Axel (he's got the right hairstyle for Axel)
- Alyssa Milano as Blaze (she's a brunette like Blaze and has experience as an action chick {Charmed})
- Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as Adam (he's got the right facial look and hairstyle for Adam, plus he's played law enforcement figures before {Walking Tall, Doom} and has an imposing-enough build)
- Tyler James Williams as Skate (he plays the titular character on Everybody Hates Chris...yeah, I do realize he's not quite the right age, but he looks like he could at least pass for 15 {he's 19}...plus his Chris role has a snarky attitude like Skate)
- Ian McKellen as Dr. Zan (he could pass for Zan with a mustache)
- Glenn "Kane" Jacobs as Max (Kane's a wrestler already, like Max)
- Danny Trejo as Barbon (note his tough-guy roles in Desperado, Once Upon A Time In Mexico, and Machete)
- Mark Dacascos as Shiva (he's got the right look for Shiva, plus he's got extensive experience in martial arts roles in movies and TV {The Crow: Stairway to Heaven, Brotherhood of the Wolf, Only the Strong, Drive})
- Kelly Hu as Rudra (besides having the right look for Rudra, she's already got experience as an action girl from The Scorpion King, X2, and Martial Law)
- Jonathan Frakes as Mr. X (because of his experience as Will Riker in Star Trek TNG, voicing David Xanatos on Gargoyles, and to me he could pull off a convincing Mr. X look with long or short hair)

What do y'all think?

[Saven]

- Glenn "Kane" Jacobs as Max (Kane's a wrestler already, like Max)

No.

No to Ian McKellen as Zan.

- Danny Trejo as Barbon (note his tough-guy roles in Desperado, Once Upon A Time In Mexico, and Machete)

...Maybe. Interesting choice though.

I doubt Rudra would appear in a SOR movie though.

I'll say that some of these choices are better than what I've heard in the past (Jude Law as Axel, Britany Spears as Blaze, Michael Clarke Duncan as Mr. X ugh)
