Bad people

My grandmother passed away back in November and as sad as I felt with the rest standing in the funeral home near the open casket, I was approached by an obnoxious first cousin from another state who walked up to me and the the first thing he said was "What are you doing with that long hair? I'll give you a hair cut for free." I shouldn't have been surprised given the idiot's reputation as an asshole but I was really shocked that he would say something like that at such a sad time. This guy had craters in his face from acne, long ugly teeth and not much hair and then went back to my grandmother's jouse on the day of her funeral and stole the last chair she had on her front porch and took it back with him. The other chair she had on the front porch, he took down to the woods and shot it full of holes with a gun a few years back without telling her when he was up "visiting" while also stealing other things from her home.
How does one deal with such people? He was married to some fat pale rude cow who insulted people like he does who he divorced several years ago who has been married twice since and he himself got married again to another witch with kids from a previous married.
Sometimes, I just feel like knocking the ugly teeth of someone like him down his ugly throat.
Anyone else been insluted like that and what would you have said if you were in a funeral home like I was after being insulted like that?

Ur not alone mate.
Although not quite as extreme as ur case, my grandad had just died. My mum said i should tidy my hair up for the funeral, i fully agreed and went without hesitation. The guy in the hairdressers slated me, i told him i was getting it cut for the funeral and he still said stuff along the lines of when was the last time u cut it, u own a comb, u got a girlfriend (sarcastically) and other stuff. WHen he finished he said - right, now u can go off do ur stuff then grow it all messy again.
I know it doesn't sound that bad but i was sad at the time, he made me feel worse and i got even more depressed.
The best thing to do is ignore them, unfortunatly these arrogant fools are a part of life
that HAIRstylist is just another FOOL...

What can you do? Probably nothing. Even if you did do 'something'...
the basic personality of that guy is most likely SET FOR the REST of HIS LIFE!
And taking away your grandmother's last chair will only
bring him back some BAD luck. (So I won't waste one of my 'Good Lucks' on HIM...
but YOU can have one...
GOOD LUCK!

Later on the day of my grandmother's funeral, the creep went driving in his SUV all over my grandmother's land in the mud and got stuck in a field near the woods where there wasn't even a road and had to pay a local wrecker $200 to pull his ass out of the mud. But of course he bragged that he had the cash in his pocket to quickly pay the guy. It still didn't justify of course what he has done over the years and the bad things he has said to me and others. His father was an alcoholic and his mother was a chain smoking bitch of all bitches so maybe that's where he got his attitude from.
It still bothers me though.

My responce would have sounded something like this :
Since it is quite obvious you have been such a total failure with your own appearence, what could possibly make you feel you are capable of improving on someone elses. If you need an example, go find a mirror, look into it, however painful that might be for you, and ask yourself that same question.
Then I would smile as I ran my fingers thru my long hair and walk away.

Don't let it bother you. Perhaps you will gain some satisfaction knowing that people like that never seem to be truly happy in their lives [the ones I've known, anyway].

Sounds like your cousin is a prime contender for a Jerry Springfield show.
When I watch the show, I can only hope they are acting and are not real. But it is true, there really are people like that.
What's really sad is they have no idea how pathetic they are! They think they are cool! It's truly amazing.
This person is destined to a life of misery in his own squallor, I just feel sorry for his kids. What chance do they have?

Well, a comment coming from someone like that - I think you can take it as a complement.
I'm just sorry he made it on such an inappropriate occasion.

Well, we've all had idiots say things like that. You learn in the end that all you can really do is to ignore them. I remember once, many years ago I was going home from an office Christmas party. I was drunk, but I didn't have to drive to get home back then. As I got on the train I started wishing everyone merry xmas, just the way a happy drunk will do. Maybe I was the obnoxious one that day, but I will never forget one guy's response to 'merry xmas' was 'get a haircut'. I told him he had no Christmas spirit and moved to the other end of the car, but there's no doubt it upset me. Goodwill to all men on earth?
I guess I should be grateful there's no-one in my family with the lack of class to get obnoxious at a funeral. It shows a serious lack of manners to insult someone when they are grieving a death. It's hard to frame a snappy comeback when you are fighting back the tears, so it's kind of like kicking someone when they are down. Not the mark of a decent man.
