Drunk people. So difficult. But I win.

Sword of the Lord · Feb 13, 2016

Not exactly Christian of me, but this guy drove me nuts.

Drunk Guy: So why do you wear that hat?
Me: I like it.
Drunk Guy: Yeah, but why do you wear it?
Me: ...because I like it.
Drunk Guy: What about the ladies?
Me: I'm married. I don't care.
Drunk Guy: But why do you wear it?
Me: I don't know why this is hard for you.
Drunk Guy: I don't like it.
Me: But I do, and so does my wife.
Drunk Guy: Are you trying to fight with me?
Me: I'd kill you. I still don't care what you think. I like it, and so does my wife.
Drunk Guy: But I don't.
Me: I literally don't care. If you got hit by a bus, I wouldn't care. Understand yet?
Drunk Guy: I don't know.
Me: I hate you.
Drunk Guy: Bartender, he hates me.
Bartender: I hate you too.

I win.

Fyi, I was there for pool. Lent is going strong.

I'm a feisty one and used to be a scraper. I don't like when people talk down to me.

Turn the other cheek.

The tragedy of this encounter is that you're a Christian and he probably wasn't, yet I can't tell who's worse.

I've seen him at the Methodist church. My town as 800 people.

Christian on Christian. I know. I'm not perfect. I'm probably the most open person here. I can't stand this kind of encounter. I was bullied hardcore, so now I get really pumped up over these things. I try to mind my business, but once in awhile, there's always that one guy that makes me talk back.

Mikhael

It's Lent for you

Forgive him for irritating you and move on

After I returned home I prayed for both of us. It's a hard life.

yep, it's always at the beginning of Lent when all our wrongs confront us. :doh:

(and yes, many of us are in that same boat this week, so you've got company.)

It's never very comfortable being confronted with what we really are.
but take it for what it is,
mark it down,
and resolve to work on it during Lent.

Don't get mad at me but it sounds more like a double life. And you can't argue with a drunk. They're drunk.

All I can say is that drunk people keeps on filling the Purgatory...

Just think of how they annoy their loved ones (especially if they're alcoholics) doesn't follow up on their children, urinate in police car, throw up in cabs, walking on the railroads, keeps on driving under influence killing innocent people, don't pay their bills etc etc.

I'm pro alcohol so it's not like I'm sitting on a high horse over here or anything, but face it alcohol has a lot to answer for...

I don't get it.

I have a couple of glasses of wine on occasion but I do not like getting drunk. No fun! I would had moved away from the guy Michael.

A couple of glasses often implies something closer to a bottle in my experience... :scratch:

Your posts are dripping with irony.

FYI most alcoholics don't fit such silly extreme stereotypes.

You must be used to drinking from really big glasses.

A bottle of wine is about 5-6 glasses, roughly.

MDC, no you aren't perfect (welcome to the human race) and would've been better if you'd just got the staff to handle this fool vs bothering to talk to him at all, but IMO you did OK on the whole. Many people would have let this guy goad them into a fight. Give yourself some credit.

Generally, drinking is a question of degree, like most things. A drink or 2 is actually healthy for you........more is not, and a lot more is obviously bad for a lot of reasons. Nothing is good in excess.

I did after. I just can't stand people bullying me. I always talk back. It's one of my worse sins.

I'm an easy target. I dress a little differently and I'm mostly nonverbal when I'm out in crowds and I sway a lot so people get drunk and take advantage. I rarely go without a friend, my wife, or mom/dad, but I have a tournament today and wanted to get some games in. I got in trouble in school because a kid spit in my hair and I told him I'd shoot him. I always talk back.
