Raithe Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Got back from the birthday bbq somewhat drunk. A random conversation ended up with the birthday boy blowing a pipe full of icing sugar across the bonfire to cause mini fire-bursts. He's a chemistry PhD and Researcher. Various wives / girlfriend / female cousins of the family were present and while they enjoyed the fire bursts were a bit disappointed in the effort it took to get it right. I gave him a good bottle of 10 year old tawny port, which we ended up drinking as we smoked cigars around the fire afterwards. Then he gave me a good bottle of Azul tequila as a present after some good natured threatening of me after I hugged his wife - he'd just been attending a chemistry conference in Mexico. I realised how long it's been since I last tango'd a pretty lady, and his wife poked me and asked why I didn't impress any of her friends and family at the wedding some months back with it. To which I replied salsa music is not a good intro to a tango, and holiday romances with the family of your best friends bride generally isn't a good idea. 2 "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."

Guard Dog Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Spent four hours arguing with my cat about what legacy I would leave behind were I to end up dead in the near future. Didn't go well... That means you had best not end up dead in the near future. You still have too much to do!

Labadal Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Last fight I was in was almost 13 years ago. I accidentally hit my teacher when he tried to break up the fight.

LadyCrimson Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 I got in a fight with another girl when I was in 7th grade. Kicking and rib-punching and rolling around on the asphalt. It hurt, I got in trouble, and I learned I didn't like fighting. And Ros, I'm glad nothing major was injured (I'm hoping), since you're here posting...hope the rest of the weekend goes better for you. “Things are as they are.

Rosbjerg Posted September 29, 2013 Author Share Posted September 29, 2013 Yeah I'm fine, it looked more serious than it was - thanks. A couple decided to use me as part of their little jealousy trip.

I would also like to know what 7th grade is. I'm going to assume it means 17 years old. Edited September 29, 2013 by Walsingham "It wasn't lies.

Guard Dog Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 My last real fist fight was in the military. In the Philippines no less. Fights in the bars around Olongapo & Subic City were common. Marines would fight the Navy, the Aussie Navy, French Foreign Legion, Philippine defense forces, US Air force from Clark, you name it. And if no one else was around we fought each other. There was a running joke that is you didn't get at least one NJP in the PI you weren't really there!

Keyrock Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 I went for a bike ride this morning. I rode about 23 miles in just under 2 hours with plenty of climbing, including a 2 mile long climb with a little over 500 ft elevation change for the final climb. Absolutely perfect conditions for riding: Low 60s when I left, mid-upper 60s when I got back. Practically no humidity, mild breeze. Gorgeous autumn foliage, relatively low amounts of traffic. The ride was simply spectacular. I feel fantastic right now. Once my adrenaline fully wears off I'll grab a bite to eat, crack open a beer, and plant my ass on the couch for a day of NFL watching. 1 RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azdeus Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 I hope you did'nt get any injuries, Ros. Especially fingers have a tendency to get busted, wich you typically don't notice until the day after. I think it's been a couple of years since I was in a proper fight, my friends don't LARP anymore, so I don't have to otherwise amuse myself by prowling around town for the neonazi rejects that typically harass them. I'm kind of embarassed to admit it, but fighting is alot of fun, aslong as you can count on no knives or bats being brought out when the other side is losing. Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L.

Nepenthe Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 I'm big and inoffensive, so I don't get into a lot of fights. Came close at the last office xmas party, but then the girls whose honour I was protecting leapt to my defence and the other guy decided to call it a day ;D +I deal with too many aftermaths of too many bar fights that wind up costing people too much.

Woldan Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 (edited) Even though I'm kind of aggressive I never get into fights, don't know why, nobody ever treats me in such a disrespectful way that I would start a fistfight. What I did today: went to the H.R Giger exhibition, cool stuff, they even showed a short film showing Giger making Alien art/props and the derelict ship of Alien 1.

Rosbjerg Posted September 29, 2013 Author Share Posted September 29, 2013 I think this is the 3rd time in my life.. I'm not the guy that goes looking for fights and I never throw the first punch, but in hindsight I have to admit I went out pretty angry and so, to no surprise, I found exactly the trouble I was looking for. Had a good talk with a friend about it and realized learning from these kind of mistakes is how you grow in life. 2 Fortune favors the bald.
