1227: Fried Salad

[1goodI]

My response to this show and Kyle (not Newsy) being mugged is only because I have been in a fight before, and I have been mugged, robbed or someone has attempted to do this to me on more than one occasion. I've said it before, it hurts to get punched in the head and it hurts to punch someone in the head. But you get over both.

Kyle - yes you Pussed out. No way around it. You are not the first or the last guy who has done this including me. When I was your age an ex-con got me alone in a blunt party and got me for about $6 bucks. He wanted my coat to run to the store, but I stood my ground and kept my coat. I felt like a puss for losing the $6 but I felt better because I kept my coat in the middle of winter. btw.. my buddy lost his coat. And yes I knew he at least had a kitchen knife on him at the time.

Your reasoning not standing your ground seems for some reason you used your brains and not your balls. Somehow you got rational. There was your mistake, in that you ignored your instincts. I also believe, you knew in the back of mind that your buddy was not going to have your back. Kyle, you took a loss on this one and it's going to bother you forever. You can either find the guy and take your pride and pound of flesh or sit with it.

And ladies, all of you are wrong. Kyle and Newsy should have fought back. Is your life worth just a few dollars, Yes and millions of dollars more. You could have been killed or maimed for $1 or $1 million. Do something or be a victim.

Newsy - what a puss bitch. How do you not have your boy's back. You even said you watched a friend get jumped and you did nothing. NOTHING. It's two against one, and you stayed on the sideline.

Newsy - you are a horrible person. What a bitch of a man you are. Kyle's hands were tied and you were panic stricken. He couldn't do anything because he couldn't depend on his "friend" to have his back.

I agree with your point junkenstein. People need to take a stand, otherwise 'predators' will assume they can get away with alot more, and the number of these 'incidents' will no doubt increase.
When I was 15 I was walking home with a discman in a bad neighborhood and three black girls tried jumping me for it. I normally don't mention race, but in this case I am sure I was targeted because I was a white girl in the projects. When they demanded I give them the discman I threw it on the ground and broke it on purpose. I knew there were 3 of them and only one of me, but I figured if they were going to jump me,the least I could do was break the fucking thing they wanted.
When I turned to walk away they threw a rock at my head, and I simply turned back around and ran at the biggest one (who was an elephant) and tackled her. I just kept swinging and kicking, and eventually they gave up and left. Granted I got a pretty good shiner, but on the walk home I had a smile on my face because I had stood up for myself and felt those girls would think twice before starting with someone else.

Just to make things clear, even if our points are similar I DO NOT agree with 1goodI.

Man, what about exposing your ideas without sounding like an aggressive douche, for once?

[LiLMissSunshine]

Newsy isn't a pussy! Just because other peoples personal morals don't agree with your own doesn't mean that they're wrong. I would have done things differently, but I don't presume to tell other people what to do or how to live their lives! It is well within Newsy's right to back down from a fight, we aren't cavemen.

I was at a restaurant with a friend a few nights ago. We were chatting, maybe loudly. Thois couple was at a near table. The girl started staring at us like we were dogshit.

After a while i just got tired of that and stared back. Her man, a qunntessential pumped up macho guy, started glaring at me menacingly. I just glared back, knowing that if we eventually had a fight he would probably kick my ass (i am a short thing) but i'd rather get my ass kicked and not feel like a pussy then viceversa.

When i stood up to go to the bathroom, the guy used the occasion to come towards me and push me. Thought that could be it, but i didnt back off. He was way bigger than me. But i just stood there staring.

He just let that go and we both continued the evening, leaving each other alone.

It sounds like a macho italian sketch, but some guys are like that. They'll show off, especially if ladies are around, and at the moment you lower your head, they'll go at you. If you're not scared and show it, there's a high chance of them letting you go.

This was the part of the "what if" game that had me laughing. After Kyle and Keith went on and on about all the "what ifs" regarding what would've happened if Kyle had fought back, they immediately mocked Chemda and Bex for throwing their own "what ifs" out there on the other side of the issue.

Otherwise, there isn't much any of us can say to make Kyle feel better about the situation. I've felt that rage that you get after someone's taken advantage of you and you did nothing to stop it. So I can't really judge him for it.

1goodI, your post makes you sound looney tunes.

good for you junkenstein. Im a short, petite girl and when I lived in the city I always lived in the projects due to finances. None of my friends would come to my apartment out of fear, but other then that one incident nobody ever messed with me because I walked with my head up and didn't portray any fear. Seriously, if you act fearless people with back off.

Oh, no sorries needed, most people outside of Italy think that the whole country is like Jersey Shore, so it's nice of you to know the difference.

There's guido types in the north too, but usually they're southerners who moved to the north.

Two days ago, a major newspaper devoted a whole page to the "Snooki Phenomenon". My heart broke a bit.

True that! 6 pages in and no one mentioned it. She was great! And I remember her from some VH1 "I Love" Things show.
