FIGHT

Weird too, in the same week as my row last Sunday, and also after having a long conversation with mates about why I didn't want to go to the local meat market club, basically cos I felt it was full of mocking dickheads. Ah well.

(Should I at this point reconsider what I've said on the "men who wear make up" thread?)

It's a no win situation obviously, this sort of thing, you hit back you lose, you do nothing you feel powerless. Anytime anything like this happens I am reminded of the power of violence, it really is scary and wrong, but very real nonetheless.

don't you mean confined behind bars re: violent drunks?

But yeah, it sucks. On Saturday this huge dude collargrabbed my homie in the restroom for supposedly not supporting the Canucks (despite my friend wearing a Canucks jersey) and I was HANGING on the guy's back, at first just trying to choke him but he didn't even notice me, so I gave him a few shots to the side of the face but he was so strong he just warned me to get off him. I didn't, so the three of us just ridiculously rotated en masse around the washroom yelling at each other until three staffers came in and kicked ALL OF US out. The girls we were with were pissed off because they didn't believe we didn't start it and that was our night fucked.

Do you know where he lives? I know revenge is quite un-ILX but I think he deserves some getback.

but if you do report it as a crime - i am presuming, like in england - the victim gets some money for harm done;

plus if he does it again, then "description fits" etc

You can also always be clever and send magazine subscriptions to his house, ticking the Bill Me Later box. Send him Home && Gardening and Oprah's magazine. He'll be flooded for years, and the hassle of canceling is a doozy (when it works at all). Then slash his tires. There are also websites that will deliver feces for you. Plenty of passive aggressive methods of revenge if you don't wanna resort to violence. Good luck

quoth kilian: just random strangers coming up and punching me in the face then walking away... is this a dublin thing or something? a friend of mine who went to school there a couple years ago (lived in dublin for 2 years) has a story abt walking home w another dude late at night past a bus stop where there was a big group of dudes (all 18-20ish). after perfunctorily calling them poofs, one of the mob stepped out and decked my friend as hard as he could in the jaw. the two of them just had to keep walking like nothing happened, any other reaction would have made it 10x worse.

if there is another incident report it to the cops. nothing matter in court but paperowrk it seems.

actually i don't live in dublin - bray is in the very north of county wicklow but it's near county dublin. i've never been assaulted outside my home town - my g/f was once smacked by a junkie on the train to town, though. a couple of friends have been quite savagely assaulted on o'connell street - hospital visits, stitches etc ensued - not a safe street at all. hope yr friend is ok, ronan.

Saw a young buck flattened with a lovely 123 combo in the bar the last night, he was yobbishly mocking the retired striker of the local football team whom he had (to hear him blare it repeatedly) overly-adequately replaced. Warned once, ignored it, taken out. Yerman didnt even stand up.

Ah it was great.

I forswear that thread forever more in pique

happy birthday :(
