So we know him so we are being friendly (in my eyes at least, but I did just call him dumb above?) and he starts making jokes about abortions, and we just all stop and go, ?um yeah prolly shouldn?t joke about such a heavy subject Dan.? And he continues and laughs but no one laughs. His GF had to pull him aside and tell him that it?s not a subject to laugh about, like some other taboo subjects. But he continues. One of the other girls there just gets up and leaves the table to remove herself from the situation and he just honestly doesn?t get why she left, because he was just ?joking around?.
I get irked at people who aren?t open to both sides of whatever their side is on a subject. Obviously to a point (murder = bad in 99.99999% cases), pointless rant finito.
Did the girl irk you or was it Douche-Dan?
