It's somewhat out of character for me, but today I did just that. I actually wrote a detailed post and poll on it here:

http://www.coopgamer.com/smf/index.php?topic=244.0

Be warned that I went a bit over the top with my delivery, so you may see an unacceptable quantity of large, obscure words not typically found on the Interweb. It's also long, so if you have the attention span of a six-year old, don't bother (I barely had enough attention span to write it).

If you have ever spat on someone, I would love to hear the reason(s) why. And I hope there was some reasonable justification.
 
You're lucky you didn't get run over. I'm not saying those asshats were in the right, I'm just saying you don't poke a tiger, and you were outmatched being one guy on foot.

You are probably a better man than I.
 
A little mexican kid spat at me once. It happened at the laundrymat many years ago. This lady has 6 or 7 wild kids running around when one of them spat at me (I think he was about 8 years old). I told the lady about her brat but she pretended not to understand English.

Wait... are you THE Chakan? The one from System Zero? If so, how ya doin?! If not, nevermind, sorry.

In any case, I was well clear of the front/back of the car at the grand moment and the intersection did not provide him the option to chase me down.

Frankly, I've had closer calls cheating death as I rode my bike to and from work. Soccer moms in SUVs talking on cell phones are my biggest fear.
 
So wait. Basically they beeped their horn and laughed and you spat on one of them???

I mean that's a hell of a long story for..that.
 
I have a temper that I can keep in check... but, when I lose it, it goes from 0 to 100.

I probably would have done the same, if not worse.
 
[quote name='Ikohn4ever']you try really hard to put in sly commentary in your story telling[/QUOTE]

Yes, well some may find it entertaining. Others may damn it to hell. I figure the latter probably won't get far before the "tldr" factor sets in.

I should hire you to write Cliffs Notes for my posts.

In any case, some people travel solely for the destination. Others are more inclined to enjoy the voyage in getting there.
 
Spitting on someone is a dick move 99% of the time.

This falls in the other 1%. :applause:

Also: your writing is hilarious. You need to post more like that here. :lol:
 
The detailed analysis of your hostile encounter produced a mildly enjoyable work of prose.

I read the whole story for some reason, beeping at pedestrians is hilarious and I would have laughed it off had I been you. I think maybe flipping him the bird would have been more reasonable than spitting, seeing as the latter is considered assault.

[quote name='Zen Davis']What if they were gay and liked that you spat on them and it turned them on?[/quote]

That made me smile.
 
Wow, if that was me or a friend of mine and you spit on him the car would have been put in park, and the shit would have been beaten out of you with the magnitude of a Norse God looking for Lutefisk. Spitting on somebody is actually considered assault so you are lucky that he didn't fight you in self defense. just my too sense though :)
 
[quote name='Sofa King Kool']I tried to spit on a kid in fourth grade once, but I missed :whistle2:([/quote]

:lol: I tried to spit on my brother at the end of a long run, but I guess I was too tired or out of breath as it only went about a yard and landed at his feet. Oh well, it made him back up a step I guess.

Thank you, I generally try to put some effort into my posts, although that one in particular was when I was feeling especially articulate.

I would be inclined to agree that this would have been a more reasonable course of action. And yes, it is considered assault in many states, although one should use such a term with discretion. Even a pat on the back, a pinch, or a hug can be considered assault depending on the situation. Heck, find the right lawyer and I'm sure s/he would be happy to sue me for mental abuse if I flipped them the bird.

Judging from your words, you are certainly a powerful beast of a man - particularly if you wield the power of long dead vikings. I would definitely think twice before crossing paths with you. I'm a little scared just typing this right now.

That was the most pretentious thing I've ever read.

Then you haven't read enough of my work. How about this old article?

Tip: Avoid using big words in your writing when you don't know what they mean or how to use them. Seriously, it reads like someone trying to sound intelligent but failing miserably.

Heed the words of Mark Twain: It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.

Brave enough to attack my intellect, but too cowardly to post specific examples so as to educate me? Also, in your grammatical context, it's "fails" miserably.

I'm not one to nitpick, but....

Was it an accident spurred on by his greasy fingers, having slipped the wheel due to the wonted consumption of nacho cheese Doritos?

Wonted is a very odd choice of wording in this sentence. I believe the word that you were looking for was wanton.

By the time I had recounted all of this information in my head, I had already come within feet of the agape window.

While a this is a minor point, agape is used improperly.

However, I do take some comfort in the possibility that the next time this gentleman decides to elicit such behavior;
Click to expand...
I do not think that you really meant elicit. A better word would probably be demonstrate. However, I can't tell for certain if you meant "demonstrate," unless you actually did mean that the gentleman was "drawing out" behavior. That's the problem with this sentence.

I made sure to see under what circumstances the horn was triggered under.

You ended a sentence with a preposition! Who did you learn that from? The next time you feel the urge to do that, just get up from your computer, and walk away. I know a few people you might need to talk with.

In summary: :booty:

Uh, no, it isn't.

As for examples, I figured they would be self-evident. But, in case they are not:

See above post.

Also, "possibly drunk and/or stoned to some degree" is not a complete sentence.

"Light haste" is, again, a rather odd choice of words.

"I made sure to see under what circumstances the horn was triggered under." No need for the second "under."

"Gaping hilarity"? Really? Yet another awkward choice.

There are numerous examples -- most are not definitively wrong, but they do smack of someone using words with which he is not altogether familiar.

You sure showed him!

:lol:
 
Those are fantastic examples. Please continue, I'm writing these down.

Also, you might want to be 100% certain that something is wrong before running around with a red pen. Even better, you may want to be certain that the entire argument is of any value before exerting energy on it.

I admit, I did end a sentence with a preposition. While I'm turning myself in to the police, you may bide your time with this little excerpt:

Some guy writes what is obviously a humor thread and the best you twat monkeys could think of was to piss and moan because you didn't like the vocabulary?
 
I didn't like the tale. You were building it up that I almost missed the one sentence where you actually said you spat on the guy.

And it was completely dumb to spit at the guy just because he honked at you. I would've just glared at him or something. I'm surprised the guy didn't get out of the car and start a fight or at the very least spit back at you.
 
props to the OP for spitting on them. I used to live over a bar with college "twat monkeys"(as the above poster put it :lol: ) They were loud and annoying as they waited in line to get in, then louder and more annoying as they poured out at bar time, drunk as hell. They didn't directly attack me, but the stupidity from the large crowd emanated into my room (and kept me awake on school nights, which sucked, until I found good ear plugs.)

Sometimes I'd watch brawls among these people-- a nice reward that didn't happen all that often and never lasted long enough. Other times, I just dropped stink bombs in to the crowd. yes, the same kind the little Bart Simpson wannabe dropped in the hall in grade school :)

It didn't cause a lot of commotion or get them to shut up, unfortunately. I heard "awwww, nasty" and "who the fuck farted?!" and other lines like that.

Humor thread? I guess I missed the humor.
 
In case anyone misunderstood me, I was joking about the grammar stuff. Of course you're not required to write in the best king's English. Your somewhat rude response to criticism merely provoked my mockery.

So, I apologize if you thought I was trying to insult you. But I will say this: it was a darn stupid thing to do, spitting on someone just because they honked at you.
 
They had it coming, good job.

A note, though. If you insist on using such a heady writing style, I suggest making sure everything is grammatically correct in your post before posting:

"I made sure to see under what circumstances the horn was triggered under."

Double-use of the word "under". You're smarter than that.

I'm a dick; that's why.

No, but I shat on someone...j/k :rofl: I have inadvertently spat on individuals when I go on a yelling tirade; can't control the ol' saliva.:p
 
Well, if I entertained a few folks and gave the grammar police boners, then I guess all and all it was a good day.

Thanks for the comments. Even the anti-semitic one, which I found comically ironic (and sad).
 
I did once but we were drunk and she asked me to do it... what a mess.



... wait... spat? Damn... um... no, I've never done that....

We need a law against beeping at walker/bikers for shits and giggles. I also love it when cars start to swerve real close to you like they're going to hit you.

Indeed. Especially when there's a gigantic puddle near the curb and someone on the sidewalk is walking right towards it.
