Assholish Assholes

I have a friend thats an asshole. He knows it, we all know it, yet he continues to be one. he says it all the time " hey I'm an asshole" and does something assholish. they say admitting you have a problem is the first step. but its not if you don't see it as a problem. When i was growing up my parents were drunks. thy knew they were drunk. even said we are alcoholics thats why we drink." luckily they quit drinking 15 years ago. not because they were alcoholics,but because my dad got tired of going to jail. labeling yourself and doing nothing about it is just a form of self defense i guess.
I am tired of people playing the asshole card.

Dude you just cut that guy off

ah ah ah.. "asshole"

oh right i forgot.

why are you wearing a winter cap in the middle of summer?

hey now, asshole remember

oh sorry , my bad.

It's a get out of reality card. It's the guy that talks on his phone during movies. "SHHHH" you shush at the top of your whisper. Guy give you the look like. hey I'm an asshole I can do what i want. then proceeds to tell whoever is unlucky enough to be on the other end of the ass phone that some jerk just shushed me. your option at this point is to either A. become an asshole and escalate it until there is asshole fall out all over the theater. or B. just go "man that guys an asshole" give him the eyeroll of condemnation and forget about it. he will have scored another assholish victory and you get to watch the dancing popcorn. You say to yourself" that guys an asshole, hes not worth it." you've played your own asshole card.

Let us not confuse smartassness with assholery. They are very different things. a cheeky reply. is using the outer buttock. while an asshole uses, well the asshole. the part that spews the smelly shit.
example:
Jon Stewart is a smart ass

John Boehner is an asshole.

Both could say the exact same words. One is cheeky while the other comes out as a nasty dark goo.

I often wonder if these assholes are assholes at home. If assholery is a way of life or if we just catch them at a bad moment. do they come home to their asshole wives and asshole children and pet their asshole dogs? or are they cuckolded milquetoasts that take out their assholeish ways on the public because they are assholed at home? were their fathers assholes? is there an asshole gene? if 2 assholes mary and have children will the children be assholes? or is it environment. for that we will have to wait for Beeks to bring in the crop report. but hes an asshole so who cares.

and theres the rub right there. " he's an asshole so who cares?" we all stand being that meme. well i care. im tired of assholes being assholish. I for one will stand up and shout, your an asshole and its not ok. if we continue to let the little assholes get away with assholishness then the bigger asshole will continue to get away with the large asshole move. what would the world be like if someone had the guts to say to Hitler" mine fuhrer? your kind of an asshole" would he have said, " shit your right. or would he have said, ah ah ah asshole" and continued the Holocaust?

So rise up and join me in my fight against the anuses of the world. stand up and say we will no longer be shit upon by you" it could work!!!
But then again im kind of an asshole. so it probably wont.
