Finish him!

Sooo... I just got into a fight. I was down at Time Warner, waiting in line to pay my bill when a guy of about 35-40 walks in. He sees the line and starts cursing up a storm. I mean really, non stop explitives. F this and G-D that, just wouldn't stop. After about 45 seconds of this, just letting him get it all out of his system, I realize he's not

I believe the term he was searching for was 'Fuck Ass', but he got mixed up.

*hug*

Ahhh, such a cute, bumbly old man.

You are my hero. Way to stand up for what's right

[crianca_aldain]

I just don't understand how people can do that kind of thing. I mean sure, I curse under my breath a lot, but this was steady and loud. I couldn't not say something about it.

I'm down with the sweet chin music....but it ought to be pointed out that the instant you put your arm around his shoulders, you technically initiated the physical element of the confrontation. His swing at you, from a legal standpoint, was taken in self defense after you committed an assault. Whether or not he deserved it, he who makes first contact typically winds up with steel handcuffs.

On the off chance that the guy files a complaint (possible), the police decide to pursue the matter in a serious fashion (unlikely, given the particulars, but still possible), and the cops track you down by questioning the employees at Time Warner...you'd best be damn sure to get a lawyer.

Yeah, I know. And that kind of pisses me off. I mean seriously, he's free to speak like that and act like that in front of tons of people, but since I touched him first the law'd side with him. It's sad, really. I doubt I'll be hearing anything more from it, if he's a man he should just cut his losses and forget about it. *crosses fingers* let's hope.

Wow. That's about the most exciting bill payment incident I've ever heard of, short of actual mafia involvement.

(You know, chicks dig mysterious vigilantes; you could look into that as a career choice.)

[crianca_aldain]

Hahaha, I suppose you could call it X-treme Bill Paying. ^_^

Oooo! Maybe I COULD make a career out of it. Getting ladies, upholding Truth, Justice and the American Way®. And besides, I like the color black, nothing says "mysterious vigilante" like the color black.

You'll need new sunglasses that you wear at night.

And some cool catch phrase.

[toastandt]

Absolutely; becoming a professional vigilante would utilize your talents and passions, require physical and mental exercise, and make you a certifiable heartthrob among those of the feminine persuasion. Aside from some possible trifling legal complications, I can't see any downside to this career move for you.

Actually, I was also thinking of your penchant for black clothing when the idea occurred to me; you've already got a wardrobe started for the job, even! (Black is the new black among the "mysterious loner" set.)

Steve's right, though: you will need new sunglasses. A good vigilante can't be mysterious without sunglasses at least, if not a mask.

[crianca_aldain]

I'll get some hot new shades next pay period, but I'm afraid that Oaklies are not in the cards for me. I just can't justify spending $100 or more for something I don't wear all the time, forget at home half the time, and have now had randomly crumpled. I'm afraid it's the usual walmart special for me. ^_^

Though I AM thinking about getting a black duster, Black mask/hat, and black gloves to prowl in.
