The fact that this is bothering you this much indicates that it's not what he said, although something more pressing that you haven't addressed to yourself or haven't acknowledged in the post.

Yeah because beating people up is obviously the best way to make them learn something and make them better humans.

I would shrugg it off and joke about it, like hey amigo i maybe look like shit but thats from all the parties ive been to

Lock eyecontact and hold it till he turns away. Don't say anything just stare.


You did fine, this shit dont happen often.

Edit: I don't know why but this sounds like something a security guard at a bar once told me. Sometimes people would get provoke the guards to chase them and the group of friends would jump the single guard. Could be something like this? Doesn't seem likely in denmark though.

So whenever someone says something asinine it's indefinitely sarcasm?

Furthermore I think our friend has a tendency to get a little angry at times. There is some choice language in the spoilers.

OP was assaulted the moment a stranger put his hands on him in order to prevent him from walking away from an uncomfortable situation that was made very clear he wasn't interested in being in. I disagree with anyone that says pull out a knife on the guy, but make no mistake that (in the United States at least) you are well within your rights to defend your person once it is violated.

Lol what in the world is wrong with you, my reply in this blog (which wasnt really sarcasm lol, not sure why theres an argument going on about that) is completely unrelated to my posts in the letting off steam thread. nice try though, how long did it take you to dig those up?
Edit: also its funny that in this blog, about being approached by some weird ass stranger, here you come along and basically do the same thing. why are you trying to start shit with me? are you a pbu that I argued with once or something?

Just ignore him. There are so many retarded people who have nothing better to do with their pathetic no-meaning shit life then to insult others, just so their own life feels better/more meaningful.

Usually i ignore the stuff. Being 188cm, 94kg (i run 20km easly, and do alot of sport ), i dont get many people saying crap to my face, mostly it is behind my back (which is worse imho). If they do say something to my face..i usually just go berserk, but from my experience beating someone up doesnt give that much satisfaction, and to be fair, shit people like that arn`t even worth getting your knuckles filthy over...

Just know this. You will probably achieve something in life, just use your negative feelings towards those "shit people" (i like the word shit people..really describes their personality) to become better, to achieve more then those pieces of shit. And once you are on the top, just imagine yourself spitting on those losers while riding a big car or something.

Could have been a Skyrim reference. You know how the NPCs always ask you if you're sick? He might have been doing that to you... I dunno lol

It could also just have been someone looking for a fight.. they usually don't just attack you out of nothing, but try to pull you into the fight..

To know some martial art may be useful to try a defense, but don't ever start the fight.. you have nothing to gain, and you never know if the one in front is either:

- much stronger than you

- have more friends around than you (may be even out of immediate sight)

- have blades (or worst) with him

- he will track and find you again if you manage to beat him up (..and with one ore more of the above to get the upper hand the next time)


Overall, you behave correctly.. having firm eye contact isn't a bad idea, as someone suggested: it gives the idea you are strong and it's better to not mess with you, but then turn around and leave.. if the one in front of you is looking for a fight, keeping eye contact for too long may be seen as an aggressive behaviour or as a way to question is superiority towards you.. and usually those people are just looking for a way to bolster their ego.. either buy beating you up, or by making you flee. Value your safety more than anything, especially when you are bullied from a random stranger you'll probably never see again ..if it's from someone you bump into often, however, that would be another case
