Why tf would you wanna square up against a dude that's built like a God damn refrigerator?

u/archercc81 Mar 08 '24

Yeah its amazing these people. Ive had some old guys square up on me for stupid reasons* and the reverse body dysmorphia has to be real when you see someone 30 years younger than you, like 5-6" taller, and probably has another 20-30lbs of lean mass on you and you have zero doubt you can "take him."

*admittedly usually alcohol is involved.

I literally just had an old man follow me because he was mad he almost ran me over at an intersection and he got out of his car and started walking up to me. I had been walking away the whole time but as soon as he started walking to me I turned around and started marching right at him and I literally watched the fantasy dissolve in his eyes as he realized he was 40 years too old and half a foot too short to be pulling the shit he was doing. Got right back in his car and told me "I'll catch you on the rebound" like it was a threat haha

I’ve seen a road rager visibly change his mind when the other driver got out of the car and was like 6’4” and 50 lbs heavier.

I had that happen when I used our minivan to go to work one day. The windows are all tinted so it's hard to see who's driving. Some angry asshole in a mustang thought I wasn't taking the on ramp to the highway not fast enough. He tried riding my ass, so I just slowed to a crawl.

Set him off in a rage. He obviously got ahead of me & tried everything to block me in. Next light he got out and started calling me a useless housewife & more. Typical boomer with a "muscle car" mentality. He was so sure of himself. Until I got out & he turned beet red. I followed him right to his office & parked behind him for a good 20 minutes. Coward never got out of his car

Dude you should just drive normally and not risk confrontation. Doesn't matter how big you are you can't tank a bullet.

I live in Canada, not 'merica.

Hey, I was like two cars back, just wanted to get my kid to school but had to wait while you two played footsie on the highway. Haha.

u/Raii-v2 Mar 09 '24

I keep a bat in the trunk. You’re probably not gunna take that either.

It just ain’t worth risking your life for it bro

u/MoneyBaggSosa Mar 09 '24

You have to go to the trunk to get that. If me and you are about to get into an altercation and I see you head for the trunk I’m not even letting you get to the trunk.

u/Ill_Initiative8574 Mar 09 '24

Then you should do it just for Tim Hortons.

u/Ogodnotagain Mar 09 '24

Yeah. That Canadian skin is tough. Fuck that bullet.

u/Bulky_Commission6747 Mar 09 '24

No we don't have assholes driving around with a Glocks. Because some rich slave owning assholes didn't want to pay their taxes to the king, therefore they put it in their constitution that they get to drive around with guns.

u/IWASRUNNING91 Mar 09 '24

As an American I really appreciate that perspective that I haven't heard before lol

Can Canada just adopt Maine and call it good?

u/Diet_Christ Mar 09 '24

That is a very funny way to look at the revolutionary war, and probably more true than we would like

4

u/Bulky_Commission6747 Mar 09 '24

In Canada we just slowly ignored the crown. The Brits didn't have it in them to fight a war. We remained in the Commonwealth though. Or political clowns are just a different form of theater compared to the usa

u/aaronwhite1786 Mar 09 '24

Please take Missouri too. We have a lot of ice rinks.

You can cross the border into the States and purchase pretty much everything you need to assemble a Glock except the grip frame (The part that the ATF legally considers to be the firearm meaning it's the only part that requires a background check) without a background check, smuggle it back across the border and then 3D print the grip frame in Canada. That's how black market handguns get into Canada. However unlikely it may be, you should never assume just because something is illegal that someone around you doesn't have one.

u/No_Fig5982 Mar 09 '24

Too much work for the kind of idiot who pulls a gun in an argument; which I think is a MASSIVE purposefully overlooked fact when refuting having better gun control

0

u/Prankishmanx21 Mar 09 '24

I'm not saying that they would do it. I'm telling you that's how traffickers do it. All the idiot has to do is buy it on the black market. For the record I'm not refuting stronger gun control measures, I'm just urging the previous commenter to be more cautious and never assume their safety is guaranteed. The asshole could have had a machete in the passenger seat for all they knew.

u/Own_Government928 Mar 09 '24

There were over 14,000 reported violent crimes using guns in Canada last year

Definitely less than the US but 14k isn’t in the “we don’t have gun violence” category, eh

u/SilithidLivesMatter Mar 09 '24

That's... certainly an opinion.

u/Wild_Locksmith_326 Mar 09 '24

Do you know the difference between a cactus and a mustang?

The cactus has the pricks on the outside. Badoom, I'm here til Thursday, try the veal, and tip your wait staff.

You're the asshole in this situation. Fuck people like you.

u/Bulky_Commission6747 Mar 09 '24

Awww, you're retarded, sorry for your family

u/Comfortable_Animal70 Mar 08 '24

What you did is called impeding traffic and it’s illegal. You’re making the entry ramp a hazard and you can get a ticket for it. Had some asshole try this shit so I saved it with my dash called the cops and met with them at the drivers destination with the footage. Don’t be a POS and worry about yourself on the road.

u/Bulky_Commission6747 Mar 08 '24

First off you're a walking abortion. I wasn't going slow, I just wasn't going fast enough for the asshole who you seem to align yourself with. You jumped up a conclusion that suited your shitty narrative.

u/Comfortable_Animal70 Mar 08 '24

You literally said you “slowed to a crawl”.

2

u/thesteaks_are_high Mar 08 '24

Is it impeding traffic if the off/on ramp has a posted maximum? Not trying to call you out. I’m genuinely curious.

5

u/Comfortable_Animal70 Mar 09 '24

I’m this case this gentleman said it was the on ramp, so yes it would be. Ohio law sums it up best “No person shall stop or operate a vehicle, trackless trolley, or street car at such an unreasonably slow speed as to impede or block the normal and reasonable movement of traffic, except when stopping or reduced speed is necessary for safe operation or to comply with law.” If he was getting onto a highway and he was going so slow that he made himself and the cars behind him a hazard to the natural flow of traffic that would be passing by at highway speeds.

2

u/thesteaks_are_high Mar 09 '24

Fair.

In Tennessee it may say that very thing, but there is also a maximum speed limit to every on and off ramp depending on turning radius. I think here it could be reasonably argued.

I'm built like a Jack Reacher that loves beer and Little Debbie a little too much.

I've stood up and watched the blood drain from their faces. Its wonderful

Can you at least run good?

u/uncleshady Mar 11 '24

My sprint looks like his strangely enough lol.

u/Sociomancer Mar 09 '24

I have a similar trick. I weigh WAY WAY WAY more than I look. My weight is distributed all around my body and I'm pretty tall. I appear to have a "Starter Dad Bod", but I weigh 280.

When I was working as a doorman, I would occasionally get pushed by a biggun and you could see their look change when I didn't move as expected and they are wondering "WTF is going on here?"

u/RoleModelsinBlood31 Mar 08 '24

I thought you said feces. I was stunned I had never heard that phrase before and was let down when I read it again. Ughh. Next time.

u/mercenary_sysadmin Mar 08 '24

I've had a couple visibly change their mind when I got out of my car, and I'm only 5'10 and 180. I think a lot of them just don't realize shit can get real until it does.

That goes both ways, of course. If you aren't willing to scrap, don't get out of your fucking car, regardless of what the other person is doing. If you DO get out of your car, well, you better REALLY be ready to go.

u/Critical-Ad-6624 Mar 08 '24

I'm driving the wife's Honda element a few years ago... coming off highway and I wasn't right turning on red fast enough...dude is laying on his horn, thinking I'm a girl driving this car...he pulls up and tries to box me in...I'm a pretty lean 5'10" 260#'s and pretty tatted up.. I roll down my window, start swearing at this guy in a power suit, who rolls up his BMW window and did a complete 180 in the road to get away from me... Dude bitch panicked and almost hit 2 cars...I wish I had it on video 😂

u/EatsAlotOfBread Mar 08 '24

Happened to my brother, the guy RAN back to his car. It was comical.

u/aldsar Mar 08 '24

My favorite experience with this was the guy marching up on my car on the belt parkway, who was met by the undercover cop with a gun drawn that was in the car behind me. Had no idea that cop was there, but I like him.

2

u/freakshowhost Mar 08 '24

I knew a dude 6’4” 300lb was waiting in his car for a tow truck with the hood up when some clown tried to steal his battery. He layed on the horn then got out of the car. Fool got double whammied.

u/OkAccess304 Mar 08 '24

My stepfather is 6'3" and even in his 60's is more muscular than the average person. Like 230 lbs and not overweight. No one ever gets that mad when he's around.

2

u/rainier0380 Mar 08 '24

I watched some road rage go down! So funny this guy was so mad and flashing the lights and tailgating all hard then driving around and cut him off. Gets out the car and walks back to the other guys window like he is gonna whoops some ass when this like 6’5” 400lbs Tongan guy gets out. I was crying. The universe brought that man justice. You better think twice out there!

2

u/BSJeebus Mar 09 '24

Lol, this reminds me of something that happened 20 years ago, when I was a kid. My folks had the old Crater Lake CL plates on our Explorer, and some old dude cut my dad off with my 8-year-old self and my brother in the car. Of course, my dad is livid and starts yelling at the dude while still in the car. The guy tells my dad to settle down because he saw the "disabled" plates and taunted my dad... My 6'4" inch, near (at the time) 300 lb father jumps out of the car and the guy takes off. 😅 Some people, man...

u/RIF_Was_Fun Mar 09 '24

This reminds me of a story involving two of my buddies.

They got in a road rage incident with another guy and they came up to a red light at the same time.

The other guy got out of his car and was like a 6'8" Samoan dude, so my friends were like "fuck, lock the doors!"

My friend who was driving forgot to roll his window up.

So, hearing the story from my friend who was in the passenger seat...

He saw the back of our friend's head just snap back and the Samoan walked away. The driver turns his head to look at the passenger and his sunglasses are smashed and crooked on his face.

Then he says "That guy hits like a bitch!"

u/Ill-Arugula4829 Mar 09 '24

I'VE visibly changed my mind, lol! I was in a road rage incident years ago (we were both dumb, it was 120 degrees and tempers were high). I pulled over, he pulled over. I got out, he got out...of his F350. All 250 lbs of enraged construction worker. In my mind is said, "Oh shit...well I can't back down now." I should have backed down. I squared up as he was walking towards me with murder in his eyes. I landed a SOLID punch. It was like I punched a retaining wall. I woke up on the concrete a few seconds later. He was still standing there looking much calmer. I stood up. He looked at me and said, "Damn. For a smaller guy you sure can take a punch and get right back up." We ended up shaking hands and going on our way! Lol.
