That's one for the books!!!

Sounds like a homeless - schizophrenic - person to me....also probably one who does drink or take drugs. Most of these "poor souls" are not aggressive or mean. They often loiter around bus stations, train depots, downtown areas, etc, to stay warm - plus they really have no other place to go other than some shelters. This particular person should have been reported (but who would you report someone like that to - when you're in a hurry to get away and get home?

Sorry for your experience. It certainly was not a normal response to a "cute little dog." That's what makes me think you were accousted by a homeless, mentally ill person.

And calling you "ugly." That is also not normal behavior. People don't call people "ugly." I think most of us are not knock-out georgous/handsome movie star, model-like people. We are just regular people like most other people in the world. And, occasionally, we do have a "good hair day" and look great!

While I'm on the ugly subject (which none of us are)!!!! Go to search and enter "Sam ugly dog." Unreal!! - You have to see this! I mean YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS! This dog is so ugly that some people think he's cute. I can't quite go that far.

Sorry again about your experience. Write it up as an encounter with a nut!
(Shame on me for saying that - but it's true.)

Good grief...just when I think I've heard it all! What a total idiot he is! Everything he said and did is so uncalled for and certainly not expected! He does sound like a mental case and please don't let what he said get you down. You are by no means ugly and he was just being cruel saying something like that...and he must be carrying around a big chip on his shoulder and just looking for people to take it out on. Poor you were in the wrong place at the wrong time! I hope you and yours have a blessed and Happy Thanksgiving and a safe one! Try to forget today's ridiculous incident...he was clearly trying to ruin your day and don't let that happen!

Seems to me that people are SO MESSED UP and angry with themselves that they take it out on other innocent people, what is happening to this world... im hearing the most ridiculous stories lately - this dude must have SUCH a chip on hes shoulder :eek: what was he thinking :confused: anyhow, be HAPPY you dont look like Paris Hilton :rolleyes: imagine having to live a pretencious life :eek:

What a Jerk!!! Theres no such thing as an ugly person just ugly personalitys....and he won for the ugliest personality! Don't let him bother you ! Enjoy ur flight! Hopefully your going somewhere warm!! I'm from Jersey and i agree it's FREEZING!!!

OMG! :eek: I would have totally freaked! Girl, you need to leave Boston and move down here where there's lots of Southern hospitality! Big cities scare me! too many weirdos!

He was probably just jealous and felt like you were high class since a yorkie is considered a "high society dog." Maybe he felt like this was his opportunity to take out his life frustrations on someone who seems to have a "charmed life" just because of the dog. In that case I would say to him, "I'm sorry you feel like you have to put me down for no reason at all. You don't know anything about me. I put her in the bag because it keeps her warm, not to be cute. But I don't have to answer to you or anyone else on that matter. Now leave before I start screaming for help."
I know the guy was wrong for what he said. He'll probably say it again to someone else. He needs to learn from someone that it's not right to put other people down because of his own misconceptions. I'm glad you're safe. There are some crazy people in this world.

oh my gosh! how rude!!!(of him) seems to me like he had escaped from some crazy hospital.. gosh. im very sorry you had such a bad ride today with Guinness. people can be cruel, but happy holidays! shake it off, and i hope you have a wonderful flight and thanksgiving!! :p

What a JERK..it's getting closer to the holiday and it bring out the most rude, mean spirited people. I would not lose any sleep over it ..just glad you and your little one is OK. You never know what someone like that will do...Sherry

wow! I think you are one brave girl for even living in a place like Boston by yourself and navigating the public transportation. I think everyone is right and that guy is a wack job. First of all, people who say things like that to perfect strangers obviously have issues of their own and just say things to make their pitiful selves feel better-don't think it works! Just as someone said in a previous post...don't waste another minute thinking about that guy-he doesn't deserve your time. As Eleanor Roosevelt said: "Nobody can make you feel inferior without your consent." Make that your mantra and live it..chin up girl, and have a good time on your trip!

I wouldn't waste one minute on such a jerk but I really think sometimes larger cities have more of a problem with inappropriate comments. Perhaps it's because we only have buses as public transportation in my city. Or, maybe it's just the south. Come to think of it, though, we had an incident in which a professional in a SUV got upset with someone on the interstate and the end result was road rage and a dead mommy of twins for no reason. So, you know what, there are inappropriate jerks everywhere, just forget it, consider the source.

I am so sorry that this happened and I am sure you are not ugly! This person is just not socialized and one day will get what is coming to him. I am sorry you feel bad, but you are luck this crazy person did not hurt you or your precious baby.

If I was there I would have punched him out myself, though only if Dennis was not there. I would be to afraid that this nut would hurt him and not me.

Omg! How terrible. People who have the need to put other people down are the ones who are sooo insecure with themselves that they feel the need to put other people down, and that makes them the ugly ones on the inside and the outside. Please don't let him get the best of you. You always are soo sweet on here, and are always sooo kind to everyone here, and to me, that makes you a very beautiful person! Who is probably just as beatiful on the outside as you are on the inside!!!

I truly hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!

He obviously has issues. He was probably the one that was ugly. And felt he had to put another person down just to make himself look good. He probably does not feel good about himself and that is why he feels the need to be mean to others. Probably just jealous. He needs mental help.

Girlfriend, you're not having any luck on buses lately!!

Hope your flight was better, and your now having a wonderful holiday at your final destination! Best of luck on the return flight!

That guy was just a real A**hole. Don't let what other people say to you get to you. Unfortunately it takes all kinds to make the world. Stay safe have a great trip and a Happy Thanksgiving.
