I just met a woman at a dog park who says all modern democrats are communists.

[NoodleBoy]

uh... ask me anything?

[SeattleGirl]

1. How did you restrain yourself from doubling over in laughter at her?

:shrug:

[NoodleBoy]

2. as calmly as I could, I told her that since she'd mostly been pleasant,

we should avoid talking about politics, since we're at a dog park and not a debate and all.

[SeattleGirl]

4. Well done.

:thumbsup:

[KitchenWitch]

3. Hey comrade!

[NoodleBoy]

6. exactly.. I was about to ask her

if I looked like a communist to her. I was also going to ask her what she thought of this government-funded socialized dog park we were enjoying so damn much, or how nice it was that my dog wouldn't get her dog sick because the goddamned overbearing tyrannical state bureaucracy says all dogs should get certain shots.

but then I didn't.

5. Did you reply, "I'm a modern democrat; do svidaniya"?

:hi:

[NoodleBoy]

7. translation?

[quip]

10. "Good-bye"

Nice and civil, in a sarcastic sort of way:-)

[lligrd]

12. Don't Forget To Add The Old DU "Hitler" To That Good-bye nt

[quip]

13. I wouldn't waste a good inside joke on an outsider; besides

I don't know how to say "Hitler" in Russian! :shrug:

[sasquatch]

8. Yes, I thought that old slander term was dead once and forever

[MazeRat7]

9. You did better than I would... my reply would have been

True and the world is really flat.

[lligrd]

11. And All Modern Republicans Are Fascists

would have been my reply. At least that is closer to the truth.

[Ellen Forradalom]

23. Ding ding ding we have a winner

Same with 'neo-nazis' below.

[Oeditpus Rex]

14. Sounds like she's asking for a trip to the Gulag

We'll tell her we're going to see Billy Joel. :)

[krispos42]

15. "Oh, modern Democrats want to do away with all private property?"

"I was not aware of that!" would have been a good thing to say.

Make her think about what communism actually is.

[WCGreen]

16. You should have asked her...

Mame, I usually don't ask this of people I don't know but could you give me some of that, whatever it is, you've been smokin'....

[Orsino]

17. "A lot of very rich old white men have been telling you that for decades."

"How are you at 'sit' and 'stay'?"

[HughBeaumont]

24. And they'll buy it every time.

Just like night and day.

Perfect answer.

[Deep13]

18. This just in: 1/3 of Americans are communists.

:eyes:

[madinmaryland]

19. I had a guy say the same thing to me.

Since I work with him, I just let it go, though all i could think was :wtf:

[Tommy_Carcetti]

20. Did your dog piss on her leg?

I certainly hope so.

My mother and grandparents didn't flee Soviet-occupied Ukraine during World War II and risk their lives crossing Europe just to get the United States for more of the same, thank you very much.

Probably one of the few things that would incite me to punch someone in the face is that insinuation.

[LynneSin]

21. I'd rather be that then a dimwitted xtian nutjob

think about it

[edbermac]

22. My reply: 'And all modern Republicans are Neo-Nazis'

[unpossibles]

25. I've gotten that one too

and recently had it followed up with "80% of Americans are Conservatives."

Watch FOX news much?
