While having dinner at 7 West tonight we could hear some sort of hubbub in the street, some guy who’d gotten out of a car and was yelling at some kids. I don’t know what it was about, and I couldn’t hear exactly what was said, but the guy was pretty pissed…pissed enough to stand in the middle of Charles Street and scream at these guys. When he saw there were 3 or 4 of them he got back in the car, but as he did he turned and yelled (in reponse to the last thing they’d said to him, whatever it was) “Suck my dick, faggot!!”.
I’m curious…did he intend that to be insulting twice? Or merely redundant? Never mind that calling someone “faggot” these days isn’t quite the insult it might have once been…especially at the corner of Yonge & Charles.
Anyway, I just thought it was a pretty weak way to make an exit after such a dramatic middle scene.
