In the mirth of the thread, I just want to restate my position… For the sake of discussion…if someone tosses a drink at me, fuck that. It’s on. I don’t think anyone would be a tough guy for shutting that particular shit down. ---

I may be wrong, but I suspect that kid was using language he heard from the day he was born. And possibly nobody taught him that the language used by just about everyone he knows is not appropriate in certain venues. To him, those words are “normal,” especially when going out with friends for a burger. So the OP is the person who finally taught him that. And the price of that lesson is the kid’s future. ---

To him, those words are “normal,” especially when going out with friends for a burger. So the OP is the person who finally taught him that. And the price of that lesson is the kid’s future. :rolleyes: Yeah, I bet that kid was just interested in being a polite member of society, but had no idea how. Or there’s the possibility that he thought he could get away with behaving however he wanted, knew that he was annoying everyone around him, and enjoyed it. What are the odds? I agree with those who think that better words could have been chosen to the OP. Of course, what we’d consider a polite form would have been laughed off by anyone with no regard for the rest of society. My son has worked as a bouncer in a blues bar. While playing on stage, I’ve seen him deal with problem patrons. He’s a big guy, 6’5", 300+ lbs, Buddha-shaped. I like his approach, which is calm, firm, nonthreatening, allowing the patron a face-saving out, and patience. For example, he’d put his hand on the guy’s beer and say, “Sorry, but you have to leave now. You have to leave me with this beer and go. We can do this the easy way or the hard way, which is me calling the cops.” He lets the guy rant, repeats his position, and eventually the guy lets go of the beer (after feeling like he’s made some kind of point) and leaves. ---

[QUOTE=Cat Whisperer] I prefer the phrase “shut your dick-sucker.” (Thanks, Girlundone. That’s become my new favourite phrase.) [/QUOTE] oh, you’re welcome. Actually now that cockgobbler has come up, I was thinking of using it as an adjective, as in “shut your cockgobbling dicksucker.” Might be overkill though. [QUOTE=Nzinga, seated] In the mirth of the thread, I just want to restate my position… For the sake of discussion…if someone tosses a drink at me, fuck that. It’s on. I don’t think anyone would be a tough guy for shutting that particular shit down. [/QUOTE] I agree with this. I would have lost my head. I wouldn’t have been so confrontational with the foul mouthed steaknshakers though, so it wouldn’t have gone down like that. Ducati, if your goal was to stop the swearing to ensure a more pleasurable dining experience for all involved, then your approach was sure to fail. You were confrontational with a group of young adults. Honestly, what did you think was going to happen? They were going to save face after you admonished them. I wouldn’t have set up that kind of dynamic to begin with. But, yeah, like Nzinga said…if someone throws a drink on me out of the blue then I will commence to punching them in their dicksucker. ---

If someone throws a drink on me, I’m throwing one back. I could take the high road, but I’d feel better about retaliation. This might escalate into a higher level brouhaha, management might come out upon hearing the ruckus and kick us out or threaten to call the police. What would not happen, on any planet, is me removing my shades, saying to him “That’s too bad. I’m sure you liked your arm before, but now I’m going to have to break it,” before dropping us both to the ground, putting him a in Brazilian jiu jitsu arm bar, while the crowd records this with their iPhones, telling the friends who attempt to jump in to back off. And the kid wouldn’t be charged with terrorism, or whatever, either. ---
