We have been invaded and here is the proof!

I am very considerate when driving. Try to give plenty of room for everyone. When I drive slower than everyone else I make sure to speed up if I need to pass. When I am going fast and see someone trying to get out I will give them room to pull out if it looks like they can make it without slowing traffic. That is why #### like what happened yesterday pisses me off. Respect the road and everyone around the best you can and still run into stupid jack azzzs

 

Disrespect is in the eye of the beholder. If we heard the story from the POV of the other driver you probably wouldn't look like the hero.

Ever hear of a pyrrhic victory? Say the other driver had taken you up on your offer to settle things on the side of the road - even if you win you've lost. You've lost more time than backing off would have cost you and will likely have sustained some injuries in the fisticuffs - even if it's just a torn t-shirt. And that's if you win. I don't know your prowess, and you don't know what the other driver is capable of, or if it's a team truck and now you're in a two on one. Or maybe he just pulls out a gun. You can respond in kind and either end up in jail or the morgue. All over nothing.

Now, you remind me a lot of my younger days with your knuckles clenchin' white.
But, boy, I'm gonna sit right here and sip this beer all night.
And if there's somethin' you gotta prove by winnin' some silly fight,
Well, OK, I quit, I lose, son, you're the winner."

So I stumbled from that barroom not so tall and not so proud,
And behind me I could hear the hoots of laughter from the crowd.
But my eyes still see and my nose still works and my teeth are still in my mouth.
And y'know...I guess that makes me...a winner.​

 

I am not a drinker. So good luck with that.

Problem with everyone letting stuff go all the time is it allows the weak to get powerful. They then get entitled and think they can disrespect everyone. This is why the USA has gotten so soft and so many think they can do anything with no consequences.

The internet has made it so much worse as well.

Back in the day when I was in prison. I was in great shape and used to box in prison before they shut it down. I am the one on the right, went 10-0 and wanted to fight when I got out. Parole Officer would not let me do it since I was on parole. So that dream got washed down the toilet.

A few years ago I got super sick and lost all my muscle and weight. I have finally got my weight back and some muscle back finally. Still can fight but not the young pup I once was, Ha ha. Got in a fight last year from some dumb ### in IL and even in my worst condition I have been in still had no issues. Not saying I am a ###### but I am far from a #####.

The other picture is of some of my Dad's metals, USS Hornet he served on, and flag from casket. Lost a lot of his metals when my brother went to prison. I got lucky and someone saved a couple and I got them when I got out of prison. Dad died when I was 15 but he was a no BS kind of guy and stood on his word and taught us to have integrity and accountability.

Fun messed up fact. The guy in the middle with the gloves on was my best friend in prison. Got out a few years after I did and he did 20 years. Ended up going back to prison because he became a #### serial killer a whole different story. He ended up he had the death penalty but died from Covid when they put him on the incubator.
