Ah. Let me clarify the bolded part. That’s not the reason. The reason is that her posts throughout the years make it clear that she is actively hostile to the idea of a man helping her out.
If Der Trihs had a flat tire, I’d stop to help because it’s the right thing to do. If even sven had a flat tire, I’d assume if I stopped to help, she’d mace me and call me a chauvinist pig.
Add that to the fact that there’s not a topic under the sun that we agree upon, and she’s a social minefield I dare not tread upon.
“The person supposedly being harassed” was thankful for my intervention, but not the violent brinkmanship on her behalf. We’ve covered this already.
Chessic’s own wife was upset because she didn’t want to see me mess up my pretty face. Not a half hour later, she saw the light after understanding what had happened.
You won’t be satisfied until you can review the security footage for yourself, but since you have a habit of not believing what you don’t want to believe, I see no point in furthering this.
To the woman you thought you were protecting and to your wife? That’s quite the big dick you are swinging at them.
The sooner you crawl back up your own asshole the better, with your drunken antisocial behaviour when out at the bar and your internet tough guy routine.
Are you sure you’ve read this thread? Because you’re the one who started it off by calling your friend a bitch and saying things like:
You sounded awfully pleased about the prospect of these women being assaulted.
I didn’t claim those were your exact words, but given the topic and title of this thread I’m not sure what other sort of harm you could have been wishing upon even sven in this post, which I did already quote:
I first offered my take on this back in post #125. While you were quick to explain that it was even sven who you had it in for personally and not just some random Doper, I note that you have not offered any other explanation for this hypothetical unpleasantness that is supposed to befall her at a bar where you just so happen to be present.
Because when someone really pisses you off you naturally think “that was a moderately suboptimum behavior. It caused an small but nearly imperceptible decrease in my happiness”.
I actually do think it’s possible to be more violent than that, since he wasn’t actually violent at all. Sure, he ran his mouth, as drunk loudmouths in bars are wont to do, but he didn’t actually lay a hand on anyone, did he? Which is not to say that you shouldn’t have told him to leave your friends alone, or kept an eye on your friends until they were safely on their way home, or told the bouncer to kick the jackass out of the bar. But let’s not make this into more than it was. You had a tense situation that you handled pretty well, although probably more aggressively than was necessary, but all in all things ended up OK. Had you mentioned it as an anecdote in a relevant thread, I expect you’d have gotten nothing but kudos.
But this thread? Not so impressive. You come across like a self-congratulatory, blowhard douchebag throughout. I suspect you’re somewhat unbearable to be around in real life.
You’re still skipping a step - are you going to ask her if she wants help? 'Cause if you pull over, elbow her out of the way, and start jacking her car up without even knowing if she wants your help, macing you would be an entirely appropriate response.
If, on the other hand, you pulled over, rolled down your window, and asked her politely if she’d like a hand, I’m betting she’d respond with either a polite “no thanks, I’m fine” or a grateful, “yes, thanks so much!” Either response would be perfectly reasonable, and neither one makes you any more or less of a man.
No. This is factually incorrect. Saying “I am a crazy person! I am liable to do anything! Grrrr!” is literally the most violent thing it is possible for a human being to do. It is physically and biologically impossible to be more violent than that. I mean, if you weren’t liable to do anything, then you obviously wouldn’t say that in a bar. Come on, man. Use your head.
If you’ve been harping about it here I can only imagine what you were like in person. You don’t think maybe she said that just to shut you up?
Look, being a guy in those situations is not fun. We’ve all had to do it. But you will just not stop with the silly ‘I played my man-part’ part. Clean your drawers and get on with your life.
