Almost beat the piss out of someone about 10 mins ago.

i think u handled it wrong...if something like that happens to me i just kinda blow it off and don't pay it any attention

you didn't have to get out of your car....u could've just drove off, turned on the radio and forgot about it...the guy would've just kept talking on his phone...and you probably wouldn't even be thinking about it enough to make a thread

just imagine if the guy went and started a fight or you started a fight, and you were sitting in jail right now over a stupid fucking "look", you'd probably have to be sitting in anger management classes every wednesday for the next couple of months...its just not worth getting worked up over...u gotta just turn your shoulder and say fuck it

There are always better ways of handling things, but to say that he was wrong is a little overboard, IMO. And just as you said, Taylor, he didn't fight and he isn't in jail... He said his piece and it all worked out... So, to say that he was wrong isn't exactly correct....

[IntensityX]

ROID RAGE!!!!!!

:D :D

[pierced one]

i betcha he was shittin in his pants. some great big motherfucker yellin at the poor little guy. I ve got a hell of a mental picture.

by the way you handled it properly. Didnt hit him, said your piece and came out on top.

[Travers54]

yea I was curious about that Bouncer, was this guy big at all?, cuz you said he walked over to you like he was ready to fight.

[JUICE]

he probably looked like this guy, lol

[Bouncer]

yea I was curious about that Bouncer, was this guy big at all?, cuz you said he walked over to you like he was ready to fight.

he was a tall (6'2-6'3) guy with a belly. i would say he was about 48-52 years of age. he really thought he was a fucking hard guy..

[Travers54]

he probably looked like this guy, lol

:laughnew:

[hlcn8]

holy shit, they have day care for dogs now?

[DS-COUSIN]

Bouncer,

If you confronted every "tough guy" you ran into, you would be looking at 7-10. If you would have cracked the fucker in the face, then you would be an asshole, but you didn't and there should be nothing to worry about. You asserted yourself in this case and it worked out. By the way, it's a frickin' dog babysitter, not really a huge deal. If they have an issue, I am sure there are other vets and dog-sitters.. LOL.

[GSXR600]

How is the dog dealing with all this?

[bad14u]

Sana thinks the people at the vet are gonna think im an asshole and not let our dog come back. lol. Wait till I get that 150lb French Mastiff. Im gonna walk up into that place with no shirt on and have our boxer on one hand and the french mastiff on the other with a spike collar. :D

IMHO....put little muscle shirts on the dogs and YOU wear the spiked collar! That will freak those country bumpkins out!

right and wrong is a personal opinion, you think it was fine, i think he wasn't...we're both correct if we have our support for our opinions...


whether he's in jail or not i look at it like...if he didn't get out of the car and make it a confrontation or add on to whatever you would call the "looks" then he probably wouldn't be stressed over it....or like i said before.. bothered enough to even make a post

ignoring and not paying him no attention would be the correct way to handle it in my opinion.....who is this guy? what's he worth getting worked up over? why is he even worth acknowledigng by stepping out of the car

[realconan]

Did I handle this wrong? Should I have just kept backing up out of the parking lot even though he was staring at me like a hard guy?

Overreacting to him overreacting would have been bad. If he wants to act like that, that's his problem. You're better than that, Bouncer. The last thing this world needs is a good guy letting a moron provoke him into becoming another moron. I like the smile and wave idea. Ha Ha!!! Perfect!!

The guy may have been having a really really bad day and telling him to "get back in (his) car and shut the fuck up" might just put him over the edge. There are some crazy mother fuckers out there and you just never know man. Years ago in the town I grew up in there was a guy who cut somebody off in traffic and got beat to death with a tire iron at the next red light. In the same town, a guy was beaten to death by half a dozen college students at a pool hall because he made some smartass comment to one of them. The scary thing was that I was at that pool hall and left about an hour before that happened and the college students were from the same college I was attending. Even though you didn’t physically beat the guy down, verbally beating the guy could have caused the situation to escalate just as quickly. It’s not worth it dude. I lived in a town of just 30,000 people and that kind of thing still happened every once in a while. Your well-being is worth more than your ego. You may be able to handle yourself against most people one-on-one in a fight, but against 6 or 7 people? And I don’t know anybody who is knife or bullet proof. You just never know what kind of fucked up people you’re going to run into…better to just smile and wave.

That’s just my two cents.

[Luftdude]

I think you handled it just well. If I was in a similar position, I'd tell the dude "just get back into your damn car and talk to whoever it was you were talking to. But be considerate to other drivers." I think you know what I mean. Hell, if you weren't there when he was there but arrived like 10 minutes later, and he was sitting there with one foot on the ground and one in the car, talking on his cell phone, you'd probably honk your horn to let him know you need to get into the parking space.
