At this point in my life it's a lot easier to let things go. Flip the finger, honk the horn. Physical altercations are for when you're physically threatened. As I grew up I realized having an arrest or assault charge or something else is not worth it for a little bit of pride. I have a family and future to think about it.

Bro, I know that feel, I had a bitch run me off the road when I was on the motorcycle and then gave me a celebratory fist pump. But you can't just kick their asses. I'm recommending you up your ganja dosage.

Full disclosure I tried to reverse look up her plate with the intention of putting a brick through her window but I remembered Buddha's words and let it go. "you will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger"

Pretty much. You're more likely to regret throwing your tantrum. Put your insecurities aside and grumble about what a dick that person is.

I've had more rage incidents in my life than I care to mention. I once drove two states away (hundreds of miles), and ripped all the hair on the top of a dudes head off just for repeatedly prank calling my house. I even kept the hair as a trophy for years until I recently threw it out while cleaning. Pretty sure that was the end of that dudes prank calling days.

Somebody once cut the battery out of my car for oxycontin and xanax. I found my battery on their back porch. I took the batteries out of EVERYTHING they owned, down to the tv remote. Motherfucker don't steal batteries anymore.

You bumped someone with your car, then chased them until they pulled over at which point you beat them up? Yeah....no. I can't possibly imagine doing something that dangerous and stupid. Your Coke spilled because of a dumbass...yea that sucks, but it doesn't justify risking your life or finances to get even with someone.

Well actually, everyone's been sat in the living room with the fire going today.

Pretty much the only warm place in the house. Might have to stay in there tomorrow.

lol I remember when this happened to me when I was living on campus in a house. Me and my roommate decided to see how long we could last before calling anyone (not a good idea considering the pipes could have busted...). 45 degrees is no joke

Heating's the least of it. You can always wrap up and put the fire on.

But cant have a wash, shower or even clean the dishes properly cos we have no hot water either.

they wouldn't be liable for th---i mean, sounds like a good case, you should hire a really expensive attorney for it though. doesn't matter cause you'll be rich, so hire the best.

How would you know there's spit? I doubt they're gonna just leave a glob of spit there for you. I would smear that shit or put it under the cheese.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #11131 on:** December 02, 2011, 08:18:50 PM »

I tend to tip over the phone with my payments, but back when I paid in cash I looooved watching the disappointment in a delivery person's face when he saw me. Then when I gave them a generous tip they'd be like "wha..oh, thank you sir, thanks a lot!"

fistfulofmetal · « **Reply #11132 on:** December 02, 2011, 08:21:57 PM »

i never said my plan was well thought out. i'm also just a cheap bitch and never tip.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #11133 on:** December 02, 2011, 08:43:14 PM »

That has always struck me as an asshole thing to do. A $3 tip doesn't kill you, especially considering pizza is something most people don't order weekly or something. Sometimes I tip $4, even $5 depending on the order and how much money I have.

At least around here you wind up getting the same delivery guy or girl each time you order, so the last thing I want to do is have one pull up into my driveway thinking "not this motherfucker again..."

i get the same few people. in fact my sister works at the pizza place sometimes. they know who i am

one time this guy gave me the receipt back after i signed it and asked to fill out the totals and the tip amount.

so i made him watch me write "$0.00" in the tip field.

Alright.

So after constant bitching from my little brothers I went to get them some Hardees. There's this u turn just after it that I have to take to get to the light that takes me back to my house, right. So I take that u turn and straight from the left side of me a Honda accent comes in fast almost hits me, so I get out of his was and just blow the horn on him, but then dude comes right in front of me and makes a full stop, I do the same cause I don't want to crash into him. And the coke flies out and hits the dashboard, floor, my ipod my pants and at that point I was like "MOTHERFUCKER!" so I chase him. The light was green but the dude makes another complete stop infront of me just to fuck with me so that he can speed up as it turns red and get rid of me. I still follow that dude so he decides to slow down and fuck with me some more, so I said fuck it and hit him from the back anyway. Not rough or anything just to let him know that he can't fuck with me like that.

I pull up next to him and yell in arabic of coure "WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU YOU PIECE OF SHIT!!?" and he's like "sorry man I didn't mean to do it it was the devil please leave it to allah and leave me alone" I'm like "Bullshit it wasn't the devil it was you you little bitch, now are you going to pay for the coke? I'm letting you off easy here so just give me money for the coke and and i'll leave you alone" So he decides to speed off to the side but I chase after him till I hit him again so that he can stop to the side. I come out and was like "where the hell is my money two cans of coke are just 3 riyals" him "I'm not giving you shit!" so I beat the shit out of him then get in my car and drive off. I just cleaned it up and I'm a little more relaxed now. Should I have done that? probably not, but I'm sick of these little bitches driving like they can do whatever they want and can fuck with anyone, now he'll probably never do that again.

From the "What's the closest you've ever been to dying?" thread:

Quote from: The Business on December 04, 2011, 11:20:05 AM

One time I was driving around in Saudi Arabia and I was trying to change the radio station from Quranic recitation and I almost hit a guy who who making a U-turn in front of me. I waved at him to apologize but apparently he was pretty pissed because he followed me for a while. He was making me nervous so I slowed down and tried to trap him behind a red light but he ran it and kept following me. I was starting to get scared and then he rammed into the back of my car. Now I was really scared. I tried to get away but his car was faster than mine and he rammed me again so I pulled over to try and apologize. He came up to my driver side window and started screaming at me in Arabic. I didn't catch exactly what he said but there was some fucks and I got the gist of it. I tried to tell him that I didn't mean to pull out in front of him but he kept demanding I give him money and pointing to his pants that were wet. I didn't know what to do so I told him that the devil made me do it and that he should leave my judgement to Allah since Saudis are pretty superstitious and I thought he'd buy it. Well, he didn't. He pulled me out of the car and started kicking and punching me. I didn't do anything to fight back because he was so scary so I just went limp and basically played 'possum. He didn't stop until I was bleeding all over the pavement and had broken my nose, jaw, and a couple ribs. I thought he was going to kill me and I bet he wanted to but he probably thought I was already dead and left me there on the road. I called the cops but they told me I was a bitch for getting beat up.

COINCIDENCE? I THINK NOT.

Wrath, leave The Business alone! You two kiss and make up RIGHT NOW.
