I threatened bodily harm to a child...refund/compensate me

[Nayeli_Sabia]

when I was 13 I was shooing my neighbor's dog from our yard(after the thing had just tried to poop in our yard. The neighbor taught his 4 dogs to NOT poop in his yard, so they would go in ours instead)

The neighbor saw me, swore at me an threatened to break my legs if I ever went near his dogs again. My mom overheard.. and told(read:screamed) him she would kill him if he ever threatened her children again.

The dog is in YOUR yard and yet YOU are the jerk? What an idiot he is.

Sounds like someone is extending their "little pweshus" syndrome to their dogs. Ick.

What a self-righteous... BLARGH! (I can't always come up with clever insults like so many others here, but I can make loud and angry noises and convert them to text.)

That story really got my blood boiling. It almost sounds to me like what this guy wanted was a pool all to himself. I'd be willing to bet that, as he was swimming around, he was thinking to himself how nice it would be to be the only one there. And, considering he already has an Entitlement Complex, he started getting angry at the other guests using the pool, silently cursing them and building up what he thought was righteous indignation. "These inconsiderate people are preventing me from having a nice, quiet swim! How dare they?! Don't they know who I am?!" Then, when the kid accidentally bumped him, he exploded with all his pent up fury. You know: straw that broke the camel's back type stuff, only he loaded all but that last tiny bit of straw onto his own back.

That's not a defense, of course. That's just my amateur--and mostly imagined--analysis of the jerk.

Wow, if someone had said those things to my child I would go all mama bear on their ass.

Not only is that an awesome line, it creates a sensational mental image!

yeah, I have to laugh at that, since in the OP the guy left a crowder (is that a word?) pool that he actually should use since it was at his hotel, to go to another property that was less crowded.

I hope he doesn't have his own kids if he acts like that.

If he did, I have no doubt that the local child protection and welfare bureaucracy would yank his custody faster than you can say my real name.

SC: This is cow feces.

And then threatens to have people harass employees.. Wow,

Poor kid.

You're not the only one--I know for a fact that my father would do that. He doesn't take kindly to anyone who messes with his family. This is a guy who nearly ran down a kid with his car Before that happened, my brother and one of his friends were jumped at the playground. Some asshole from the high school knocked them down and took their football away. As we're driving home a few nights later, we spot the asshole and two of his buddies. Dad is *furious* by this time, and decides to confront them.

Imagine if you will, a beat-up Tempo coming down the street, going past you...then slamming on the brakes (E-brake, actually), squealing the tires, going past you the other way, then pulling the E-brake again, and coming at you...before screeching to a stop a few inches in front of you After seeing something like that (and what was about to happen, I'm sure you'd think twice...

Dad got out of the car, picked the asshole up by the shirt, and simply told the guy that if he messed with any of his kids again...he wouldn't like what was going to happen.

Strangely enough, that asshole wouldn't even walk down our side of the street. He'd actually cross the street when passing our house. However, if the Tempo was in the driveway, he wouldn't come down our block at all!

Sadly, the asshole didn't learn his lesson. He left us alone, but his next victim (who was black, this is important)...beat the shit out of him The asshole retaliated by painting a certain racial slur on the guy's driveway Needless to say, he was soon arrested

Ye gods the wonders of the fermented grape!

Hey, what about the poor mead that could've been involved... no grapes, just honey. Mmm, mead... not quite as thick as I was expecting it to be, but still tasty.

Hey dekydrose,
What rock did you look under to find these pieces of work?

I mean I get my share of scammers, but they would never admit, let alone volunteer it.

Tell me your calls are monitored and/or recorded. For "quality assurance purposes", of course [WINK...WINK...NUDGE...NUDGE].
