(tho i can tell u some things have changed for the better. when i was very young, it was standard everyday fare to get ur buttocks pinched/molested when we walk by certain people in the street)<BR/><BR/>yea, thumbs up for the 6' 2" hunk!Terri @ A Daily Obsessionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00220600890256142215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1304437690959603870.post-81465991788183171092007-11-23T16:41:00.000+08:002007-11-23T16:41:00.000+08:00Wah Terri good for you for standing up for yoursel...Wah Terri good for you for standing up for yourself. I hate bullies or people who pick on the smaller or defenseless. <BR/><BR/>I witnessed this last night at Blue Note. I was there with a lot of friends and so was this jerk a few tables over who was drinking with his cousin. I really never liked this guy to begin with. A real Class A loser who thinks he's great simply because of daddy's money. You know the sort. <BR/><BR/>So anyway, it was really late and I'm guessing some people got drunk because suddenly the jerk started slapping his own cousin around for some silly reason, and the guy is a lot smaller.<BR/><BR/>My friend (who's like 6ft 2in - pretty tall for local standards) told him to calm down and stop it. The jerk got even more pissed off and told my friend to butt out and mind his own business otherwise he would be in trouble.<BR/><BR/>My friend was smiling as he asked the jerk "Do you really want to start with me?"<BR/><BR/>The fella didn't answer and just turned away. He looked nervous. <BR/><BR/>Nice! I like it when bullies get their comeuppance. And it's true, a lot of them really are big chickens if they're not in a gang.Shanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11571202315137311561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1304437690959603870.post-39409590465029270322007-11-23T15:22:00.000+08:002007-11-23T15:22:00.000+08:00Do you know how tough it is to suppress my dying-t...Do you know how tough it is to suppress my dying-to-burst-out laughter?? Gosh, you told me the story about 'The Strangle' yrs back. Somehow, reading it again still makes me laugh, albeit very 'quietly'. Yes, you have my vote - we are a bunch of 'twiegais'.<BR/><BR/>A man (I think he's from China) cut into my queue at the airport recently. No matter how I tried to tell him including using sign language)that he should go to the back of the line, he just didn't budge.
