a mean left hook

We all have to make allowances for the rest of the people on the planet, right? It's a part of living together.

Lately I've been feeling like I'm making LOTS of allowances.

From the odd things people say to people in bars putting their hands on me to other people taking my shit, I'm feeling fucking well bombarded.  (Yes, I know I'm getting my coat and phone back, but it doesn't really erase the violation, does it?)

So what do you do in these times? Withdraw? Develop some snappy repartee? Or a mean left hook?
