Anyways, my father is on the board of the Booster Club as the secretary and we, he and I, were running an auction for Christmas ornaments on the ccbc.us website (surprise, surprise, guess who owns both the domain name as well as the site space itself...my father). These ornaments were cheap ceramic things that the players decorated, worth no more than like $5 undecorated. Man, who would have thought such a cheap ass thing would cause such controversy?

We have had issue after issue with this auction, to the point where my dad and I both swore we are going to quit as this is retarded. People harassed us about the starting price that was AGREED to by the members of the Booster Club (gee...we even voted on it as a club) among other things. Tonight, though, tonight was the absolute last straw. I have never seen a group of adults, well really only two people, act like second graders. Mother told me about what the other people said though, some of it was really funny.

Anyways, this person, we will call this person "X" to avoid either libel or slander or any other lawsuit X thinks they can bring against me ;-) put in a bid for an ornament and forgot to put X's name on the email. My father, going WAY above the call of duty, emailed X back to verify the bid. He NEVER got a response. So tonight, X tried to claim that my father had to give her the ornaments. He refused, of course, as that would be stealing from the person who was smart enough to place a bid with their name on it, and X called him a liar, among other things. After X was finished harangueing my father, X went over to the table where the ornaments were kept, awaiting their owners to come claim them, and tried to order the runner of the table, who we will call A, to give X the ornament. Since X outranks A in the club, I guess X thought A would just hand it over. Well A is a lot smarter than that and A refused to do so. A then immediatly went to our president of the club, we will call that person P, with X following right on A's heels. The three of them got into it, and ended with A quitting the club (and since A was the only person running our table, this really sucks...not to mention that A is a really good person). Oh, and did I mention that X claims to have a receipt email for the bid that X placed? HAHA, that's really funny considering that we did NOT send receipt emails for ANY of the bids, let alone X's...though, in retrospect, that would have been a really good idea but we were pressed for time since some people were unorganized. How do I know that we didn't send receipts? BECAUSE WE NEVER SET UP THE SITE TO DO SO AND I HELPED DAD SET UP THE SITE.

So after the game, P, X, my father, and the other board member had a meeting in the arena. Dad had asked me to attend the meeting to be his witness and X disagreed so violently that I left without arguement when P asked, ASKED, me to. Just for the record, I did NOT leave for X because I really don't give a rat's ass what X thinks. So X lays into my dad as soon as I turn my back, and me being the smart kid that I am, stayed within earshot...not that that was really hard to do with them raising their voices at each other. X called my father a liar and showed them an email receipt...not that X would let anyone touch the email so as to be able to read it or anything (still wondering where the receipt came from...well, I got a real good idea cause, unlike some people, I am not stupid). They argued some more and then, out of the blue, come's X's child, we shall call the child B (who is NOT EVEN IN THE CLUB), down the stairs with a head full of steam. B said, and I am paraphrasing here to avoid slander charges (ie, mentioning the person's sex) that no one could threaten X. B called my father a god damned liar and a couple of other really nasty things. By this time, me and mom had closed in on the little soiree, we figured, hell, since B had interrupted, we were going to as well and B looked ready to hit someone. I was looking around for a cop, they are so NEVER around when you need one. Mom touched B in an attempt to make B pay attention to her and NOT cause a fight and B was like "if you touch me again, I will sue you." So mother stuck her tongue out at B and wagged her fingers in her ears at him and X then called my mother a drunk. Anyways, I tried to pull dad away and I heard B call him a fucking something or other and I was like "Don't you EVER call my dad that again." B was like "I will do..." and I quit listening to B because P ordered me to go home (and I had to say "You are not my father, don't order me around." and dad grabbed me, dragging me backwards.) Finally, B went to the top of the stairs and was like "I'll be waiting in the parking lot if you want to join me." OOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH NO B DID NOT. Had I my cell phone or if a cop had been standing there, I would have B arrested for threatening me. I was shaking with rage, something I have never done in my life...it was weird...but it did get dad to calm down and not stroke out. So I quit the club, saying that I no longer cared to be a part of any organization that X was a part of and X was like "good." {explicative deleted}.

All this over a cheap assed ornament...I HATE PEOPLE. I really hate people that get so angry over small stuff...I really wanted to tell X "Dude, you lost, get over it." but that would have trickled off X's back like water off a duck. Mother told me, on the ride home that some of the other people in the club that are on X's side, were calling X's best buddy in the club, we will call that person C, "the smartest person in the club." R-I-G-H-T (that's sardonic for those of you who don't know gamer speak). If C is so damned smart, then why doesn't C run for president? If C is so smart, then why does C side with a proven liar? If C is so smart, why doesn't C do something to control X? AND IF C IS SO SMART, WHY DID C ALLOW THIS FIGHT TO HAPPEN?

You know, if I wanted to be talked to as rudely as I was tonight, I would hang with the second graders. Oh, wait, never mind, that is doing the second graders a GREAT injustice. I have never seen adults act so CHILDLIKE in my life. Oh, what is that I hear? Sounds like nap time...
