ZSo why, since I got home at 7 pm, have my two sisters-in-law and the mother-in-law had to call here? FFS, you were together at a christening this morning, sitting together in church for however long, then been at said party since before midday!! WTF can there be to talk about?

Seriously, women. Just cannot and will never comprehend them.

Haha

Certain sharp objects can help or give him a free close up of a pint glass as it hurdles to his head. Don't know about South Africa, but people here love to glass each other.

As we're nearing the front of the line, a fairly biggish bloke and his bimbo girlfriend just walk into the line, right in front of me and this other girl. We both politely inform him that there's a line, and that surely no one else in the line appreciates him just pushing in. He turns to us and just says "You'll be alright mate." After we tell him again, we just get the same response, this time a lot more threatening, and as the girl I'm with said, we could do without getting our faces smashed in. But deadset, how much of a **** do you have to be to just blatantly walk in front of pretty much the whole line and not even do anything when politely told to get to the back of the line? The **** tried to do it again when I was at the bar getting a drink as well, it just put me in a **** mood and ruined the rest of the night for me.

Yeah I hate ****s that do stuff like that. I'm really unconfrontational in real life, so I would usually say nothing, but I always think along the lines of 'He'll do that one day and get the **** kicked out of him by some rugby player or something'. Some things just aren't worth getting bothered about.

Yeah, I'm the same.

Another example is guys pushing in front at the bar and then turning around and saying 'Sorry mate, you were probably in front of me'...No **** ****wit, a late apology won't cut it. Happened a lot to me at bars in the UK especially.

Just go to a different place. Rest assured, if you do this a few times, no **** will mess with you.

People must be pretty timid in New Zealand. All it would do for you here is make you a lot of enemies to get your arse handed to you by.

Well I mean it's obviously different if you bottle a guy from the Mongrel Mob or something, but if the guys a **** then most people will have your back, and those that are mates with the dickhead but just be scared enough to leave you alone.

Prison logic. For that to work, you have to be scarier than the guy you're beating on. Even then, in a fight, a bloke only needs one lucky punch and it's all over. Then he can do whatever he wants to you while you're a pile of meat on the floor. A trained fighter just increases their chances of a win, doesn't guarantee it.

Truth is, in my experience, no-one helps unless they know you so it's more helpful to assume you're on your own. No-one wants to get clocked for no reason, no matter how much they're spoiling for a brawl.
