The only thing I would have suggested is waiting a few months to do the coke trick - give the victim time to forget, etc....then do it. That way it'll make it harder for you to be nailed for it. That's if you got nailed for that as well. But back to the first story - that's outrageous. I've seen family and friends with dvds that I thought were god-awful but I would never do anything to them. What that guy did was totally and completely disrespectful to your stuff. He deserved that punch! I've never gotten into a fight with some over a film, but there have been times where I've wanted to. Say you get a movie that you like, and someone has to say OH THAT SUCKED or YOU LIKE THAT SHIT????....I can understand we don't all have the same tastes, but don't try to make someone feel like an idiot for liking something. Or at least not to their faces... | | Static Link |
