Title: Bottom Dwellers
Post by: Shuckins on October 21, 2007, 03:31:04 PM
What is your definition of a bottom dweller?

In my opinion, one of the most contemptuous bottom dwellers is the real-estate developer.  The guys who scrape a pristine woodlot clean of vegetation, killing off wild cedars, red oaks, shagbark hickory, and other trees with real character, build endless rows of cookie-cutter McMansions, and then "landscape" their "development" with skinny, nursery raised trees and bushes that look as though they were cultivated for girly-men

The type of guy who cuts a twenty-year old oak in the front-lawn because it obstructs the "view" of a house from the street because said tree, according to them, makes it harder to "sell" the house.


This type shouldn't be allowed to breed.

I think that responsibilty dodgers and excuse makers are probably bottom dwellers in my book.  Usually they go hand in hand, as well.

Screwing up is okay ~ everyone does it.  Not owning up to screwing up sucks... blaming it on someone else or finding excuses to explain it away sucks too.

Fathers (or mothers in some cases) who do not pay their child support nor make any attempt to be a part of their kids life.  

People who abuse animals.  I HATE cats but I'll cheerfully chop your head off if I catch you abusing one.

Wow.  I never called them bottom dwellers.  Usually just refer to them as satan incarnate.  But totally agree.

I grew up in (once) rural South Carolina.  The good old boy system coupled with developers have completely decimated the area of the Low Country where I used to live.

The story was always the same with catch phrases tossed out at ease...

'bring jobs to a economically depressed area'

translation:  truck in some migrant (illegal alien) workers to throw up some houses

'help develop the infrastructure of our county'

translation:  put a bunch of subdivisions on a two lane road to cause traffic jams

'increase the tax base'

translation:  bring a bunch of yuppies in who will vote to have higher taxes for all of us to get functioning sewer lines out to their McMansions

No.  What you're really mad at is that you did not take advantage of market demand, and make an astounding profit in the process.

I think it atrocious as well.  Not that they do it, but that people actually buy it.  Being a part of a small construction company, I don't understand why they do it.

Insurance salesmen.

He signs you up for car, home, and life insurance. For as long as he stays in the game ever month he gets a piece of what you send in.

Ever seen a poor, hungry insurance salesman? If you did I bet he was in his first year at the job. By the time they've been doing it for 20 years they look like pampered house cats. Overstuffed, sleek, and full of themselves.  :)


Lawyers should for sure be an endangered species.

kamilyun... actually... you don't get to vote on the sewer rates per se... you get to vote on how you are going to pay the cost of the worthless plant that the EPA will make your community build.. it will be obsolete before it is done and the EPA will make you tear it down and build something else.  

It will be common for everyone to see $150 a month sewer bills.. I told you guys this several years ago.   there are no scientists in the EPA driving this and they will not listen to real science.  It is total PC BS.

any one who for-goes a free High school education and therefore a potential College degree, just to hanging with his/hers boys/girls.. Then looks to the working class to pay their way.
IOW. makes bad decisions and blames everyone else but themselves for those decisions.
