I think I do say "Screw you" constantly, in my head. Kind of a perverted version of "Keep your f*cking wrench" cited by Hawkeye a while back.

  1. I have no idea where "Keep your f*cking wrench" comes from or what context it was used in, but for some reason I love that phrase! It tickles, and I must find an excuse to use it!

  2. It is a great one, isn't it? Comment on August 30 post, "assertiveness training"...it's a story about someone whose car breaks down in the middle of the night. On the way to a nearby house to ask to borrow a wrench he imagines all these angry reactions from the person who will answer the door. "How dare you wake me up?" etc. So by the time he gets to the door and the person answers, he's so worked up that he simply says, "Keep your f*cking wrench". A friend of mine had a funny one a little while back. Driving past a shopping center she noticed too late someone trying to get onto the main road that she could have waved ahead (let go in front of her). Feeling bad about it, she carried on for a few minutes down the road about how she should have let them in until she finally blurted out in her imaginary conversation to this person she imagined was furious at her for not putting their needs first: "So you had to wait 10 more seconds. Big f*cking deal."

  3. Oh I see now Hawkeye told it as jack instead of wrench -- either one works I think. Maybe "Keep you f*cking wrench" would be a good blog title.

  4. I like it so..... And I think wrench rolls off the tongue much better than jack.
