Wow.

This is a major fight. I am very impressed with the shit-flinging abilities of both parties. Well done!

    GENIUS!

    Nothin’ better that a good ole cat fight. I need to find that old lady in my apartment building. I’m ready now.

    I have often THOUGHT to myself the stuff Preppy Girl says … I can’t stand oblivious in-public cell-phone behavior. Makes me nuts. But so far I haven’t confronted anyone about it. Or – no, that’s not true. I told someone to “please talk on your phone outside – not here” in a Barnes & Noble. It was amazing how SHOCKED the dude was – he truly thought he was in private!! But he obeyed me, I’m glad to say.

  3. Alex Nunez says:

    You know Thug Girl was dying inside when Preppy laid this smack down:

    Pretty face? Where?

    That is brutal. And Thuggy sounds like a loud-mouthed bully. I bet she cried later.

  4. red says:

    alex – totally. You would think Thug-Girl would overpower Preppy Girl but apparently Preppy Girl was just FINE in her bitch-slap capabilities.

    Brutal, indeed.

    I wonder what happened next!

  5. Emily says:

    I bet Thug Girl was all talk. Anybody who says “you’re messing with the wrong person” usually is.

    It was still a pretty funny exchange, though. I’ve been pretty close to saying something to obnoxious cell phone users myself.

  6. I have a verbal smackdown arsenal at the ready whenever I board the subway… but I rarely use it. I just assume that I’ll get my ass kicked (or worse) so I just keep my mouth shut. Perhaps it’s best because my stockpile contains several really horrific references to one’s mama and her, shall we way, lack of morals.

  7. Cullen says:

    I have a verbal arsenal response mechanism that consists of me shouting “You’re a poopie head” and running off and crying.

    I am so cool.

  8. red says:

    hahahahahahahahaha cullen … can’t stop laughing …

    Why is it that watching catfights is so much fun? A few months ago I was coming home from the grocery store on a Sunday evening, and as I got out of the car, I heard a female voice on the other side of the fence (where an apartment complex resides) scream, “You bitch!” I was tempted to pull out a lawn chair onto my porch and listen, but I refrained. Ordinarily, I consider myself a fairly moral person, but somehow catfights bring out the voyeur.

    Btw, Curly, please, please, please share at least some of your arsenal with us. I’m dying to hear this.

  10. mere says:

    I WISH I could think of stuff like that.. I’m more likely to start stammering and then think of really cool stuff to say at home… 5 hours later.

  11. Cullen says:

    Bryan, I think it’s even better when you add either mud or gelatin. Catfights are one thing. Dirty catfights are quite another.

    Remember that mudfight bar-scence from Stripes? I am forever tainted because I watched that at a young age.

  12. "dave" says:

    Poopie Head? hey can I use that?
    The real beauty of that is that would be so dis-arming.

  13. Cullen says:

    It’s an open source comment, “dave”.

  14. Bryan says:

    Cullen,

    I never saw that film, but it’s going on the Netflix queue now. ;)

  15. red says:

    Well, I admit that I don’t like the term “catfight”. Unless by “cats” you mean “lions” or “panthers” or something equally as ferocious. People often use the term catfight in a condescending way, as though it’s somehow amusing and cute to watch women fight. Like: Oooh, look at the wittle kitten scratches!!

    Not saying YOU’RE using that term in that way, Bryan … just saying I don’t like that there is an actual TERM to describe women’s fights – when … men can just flat out “fight” and be done with it.

    It’s a small pet peeve. Nothing I can do about it – the word “catfight” is used way too often for me to get that upset about it – just something that kinda bugs me.

    And yeah – I kinda wanna hear Curly’s arsenal of insults as well!

  16. red says:

    Oh my God, Bryan – YOU HAVE TO SEE STRIPES!!!!

    Classic and ridiculous film. LOVE that movie.

  17. red says:

    It was from before Sean Young lost her marbles completely! She was kind of hot in that movie, if I recall correctly.

  18. Lisa says:

    You can’t just call them “fights” because girl fights are WAAAAY better than your average guy fight. Guys just end up wrestling on the ground. A shirt pocket may get torn, someone’s mom may get called a bitch. Hohum.

    But girl fights? AWESOME. Much pulling of the hair, ripping of clothes, scratching, biting — there are no rules in Girl Fight.

  19. Lisa says:

    Bryan must be younger than us, because there is NO WAY someone our age hasn’t seen Stripes. Harold Ramis is SEXY in it.

    That’s the fact, Jack.

  20. Carrie says:

    AAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRHHhhhh Me training, Sir!

  21. red says:

    I prefer the term “girl fight” INFINITELY over “cat fight” then.

    Yeah – Stripes is basically a rite of passage!

  22. Bryan says:

    Sheila,

    If it’s any consolation, the mental image I have when I use the term “catfight” is of panthers or tigers rather than kittens. And it’s not so much cute or amusing as erotic. Maybe I’m just a perv, but on the other hand, I’m sure there were plenty of women drooling over the shirtless guys in Fight Club beating each other up, and understandably so.

    And Lisa, I agree, guy fights tend to be pretty uninteresting unless the guys are fighters of pretty high calaber (i.e., Jet Li, Bruce Lee, Steven Seagal, Muhammad Ali, etc.). Some sort of different classification is needed.

  23. red says:

    I’m not saying it’s not erotic, Bryan – I know that it is. As long as when you say ‘catfight’ you’re not thinking that women being angry is cute and funny – then I’m fine with it. Not that I can control other people’s thoughts. Alas, I cannot.

    And please, for the love a’ Pete, see Stripes!!

    I remember I saw it in the movie theatre when it was first out – and I was … I don’t know how old – 12? I’ll have to check. All I know is: there is a brief flash of boob in one of the early scenes – and I had never seen a movie with any nudity – and I was completely DUMBFOUNDED BY IT. I couldn’t BELIEVE it. hahaha

  24. Gulp. I didn’t realize you guys would be so interested in my salty retorts. I’m totally blushing now. While I can be quite cheeky, I assure you I’m not usually so vulgar. Well, not out loud, at least. Okay, so here goes…

    There’s a common problem on the subway with men sitting with their legs spread far and wide. They take up about three seats as if to let us know they’re making way for their, um, you know… girth. They only wish it were that big! Every woman I know has the same eye-rolling response to this. Aside from it being ridiculous and misguided on their part, it’s just rude.

    Some guys wedge themselves into the seat next to me and proceed to spread their legs whilst jacking me up on a diagonal. It’s very uncomfortable and totally not fair. It’s a blatant violation of squatter’s rights. But back to my point… In this scenario, I’ve actually had to stop myself from saying, “Hey, how’s about doing something your mother never could… close your legs?!”

    Um, sorry. Sheila, my face is now redder than your hair.

  25. Bryan says:

    Curly,

    Oh, that’s too brutal! I love it!

  26. red says:

    hahahahahahahahaha

    Go, curly!

  27. red says:

    And yes – to your complaint about the “oooh, i have to sit with my legs wide open to make room for my girth” … i think everyone who rides the subway will know what you are talking about!

  28. Bryan says:

    Sheila,

    “And please, for the love a’ Pete, see Stripes!!”

    Well, with a mudfight and a brief flash of boob, what more could I ask for (except maybe a not-so-brief flash of boob)? I’ll definitely see it.

  29. I’m completely rotten. :)

  30. red says:

    Yup – it’s hysterical. And yes. The brief flash of boob which so rocked my world at 12.

    Bill Murray at his dry witty best!

  31. Alex says:

    Bill Murray is BRILLIANT in that film. And can I just say: P.J. Soles?

    Can I just say that?

  32. red says:

    alex – you can say whatever you want. Except for: “I’m thinking about becoming a Scientologist.”

  33. red says:

    You: “It was manipulation at its zenith!!!”

    Pause.

    Me: “Xenu.”

  34. Cullen says:

    MMMmmm. PJ Soles. Now I’m gonna have to watch Rock and Roll High School and Halloween.

  35. Dave W says:

    “I’m trying to. That’s why I’m on the train, you stupid bitch.”

    hahahahahaha

    That’s no fight. Preppy girl wins by knockout.

  36. Wutzizname says:

    Damn my hectic schedule, I’m too late again.

    IMO, Women fighting is sexy, yet voracious. You see things you don’t see in ‘guy fights’. Guys usually resort to wrestling, or boxing, if not an attempt at a martial art. Women do something I don’t completely understand…like they grapple…and start working out physics theories, or something. Pulling hair…biting…it has to be those women who are so angry, they just go nuts. Women with training in fighting are entirely different. They’ll measure the situation. It’s no fun. People just want to see two women go at it. It’s like 2 notches below them having sex, or something. I’m surprised there aren’t tips involved. Onlookers usually wait for undies or naughty bits to be exposed, if not blood. People also listen for obscenities that they’d often not be prevy to (I dunno about you, but I LOVE to hear women lose it and start cursing, especially women who SWEAR they don’t) Of course, ultimately, it’s either something terrible happens, or else someone comes in, and breaks it up.

    …I should mention that I used to bounce, before you all ask how I came across this info.

    After a fight, you’d usually hear screaming at each other from a distance, and both people feeling that they’d won the fight. The bouncer’s trying to cover the girl who’s face is scratched/Weave’s torn out/Jeans are ripped/breast(s) exposed, if not all of the above. That’s when most guys on the street pretend to be nice, and amend the situation by buying her even more drinks, or getting her ice for her injuries. the worst part being that they’ll STILL try to lay some lines on her.

    Guys just wrestle, punch, scream, and then pose. USUALLY after they’ve drawn a bunch of attention. Totally predictable.

    -Wut

    P.S. Sean Young would get a freebie, too…if I didn’t mention it before, and I hope the Thug Girl got her ass beaten for deliberately annoying people like that.

  37. red says:

    dave W – I completely agree.

    There’s no comeback from that one.
