Not a good time

[JoeYaDeadHomey]

<p>Hey all, I know I'm a n00b. I've been a Ron and Fez fan since the NEW days, never joined the board finally decided to do it tonight.</p><p>&nbsp;I saw this section and figured hell might as well get something out there just because its been driving me crazy. Feel free to call me a crazy loon etc...&nbsp; Say I over reacted, doesnt really matter just wanted to contribute something maybe someone went through something similar at one time.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Let me start by saying I'm 24, been out of work for a few months, and have been pretty down not only because of that but because of just plain drama in general and disdain for my current situation. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Anyway, Saturday night I was hanging at a friends house, and another friend came by. Now I never really liked this other guy, hell Ill say it, his name's Danny. I never liked Danny but always kept it to myself. He always goes on these rants about how everyone else is so gay, and hes a grown ass man and he gets p___y (dont know the rules yet of the board, so I'm censoring it) .</p><p>&nbsp;No one cares yanno? So I said Danny no one cares, great for you, but no need to brag. I'm 5'8&quot; 245 pounds, and I have a gimpy hand (long story) He's 6'3&quot; just came out of jail not too long ago , a boxer and in excellent shape. So he tells me &quot;son shut the F____ up or I'm going to throw you out&quot;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Mind you , not his house, and to be honest, he babbles crap like this all the time. So I say whatever Danny (god this feels like Highschool all over again). He gets up (I'm sitting on the couch, gets in my face, tries to make me flinch, and I say I'm not afraid of you, he goes ok, goes to walk away, turns around, sucker punches me and broke my nose. NOW nevermind being in complete shock that it actually got to this from this stupid stuff. The person who's house it was I've been friends with for about 10 years, didnt say a word, there were about 5 other people there no one else said a word, he goes back to sit down, and I'm still thinking what the hell happened. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I go to get up, and say thanks alot guys, you've all been great friends (sarcasm, mind you, Im bleeding everyone, and I am super pissed) You let this just happen, after all I did for you. (I dont want to give a plug but my friend has a business in Astoria where I live, and its been struggling since he opened it , and trust me, I put my life into that place too) no one said a word. So me and my broken nose go to leave, Danny gets up and says Ill knock you out you fat f__k (funny a fat joke, like I didnt know) So not being afraid, not giving a goddamn. I wipe some blood off my face, and wipe it on his shirt walk out the house, tell them thanks.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Get to my car, calm down a lil, realize my nose is messed up. Decide to call the house, ask my now former friend. You gonna leave it like this. You didnt want to stop him, apologize for not telling him to sit down and be cool in your house, if he wanted to beef with me that bad, thats fine, but you didnt say anything, didnt even ask if I was ok, or say Danny WHAT the F__k. </p><p>He replies its between you and Danny. So I say thats how it is, tell everyone to forget they knew me and I hung up.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Now its a few days later, maybe my nose isnt broken, but its got a crack in it. (I've done it many times skating when i was younger... probably about 5) I can breathe ok, its still a little swollen, but whatever, Ive been hit harder in my life. The point is, why do I feel so betrayed so screwed up. Was it just the icing on the cake of all this BS that was building in my life? I dunno.&nbsp; I'm just curious if I really did the right thing telling everyone to kiss my ass. its A few days later and not a soul has made an attempt to contact me, so I guess they really think its my fault.&nbsp; The few other people I've told the story, who are impartial, said I wasnt wrong, especially all the shit guys talk when theyre hanging out. It wasnt really over the line, I dunno.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Im babbling.&nb

[FUNKMAN]

<p>first off Welcome Aboard!</p><p>secondly: tough call, you could have tolerated his BS like the others. you did what you felt was right for you, don't beat yourself up over it.&nbsp; give it alot of time and don't worry about the friendships for a while. if anyone is a true friend then time will tell...</p>

[tele7]

First of all, from one noob to another....Welcome!&nbsp; Judging from your post you seem like a pretty level headed guy.&nbsp; I'm only hearing your side, but I think it's time to find some new people to hang out with.&nbsp; I'm not a big guy, but if someone sucker punched my friend, I would not just ignore the situation.&nbsp; No true friend would.&nbsp; Good luck

[Sheeplovr]

<p><span class="postbody">First you said to mind then you said to nevermind but that was after you said </span><span class="postbody">yanno</span></p><p>from what i was trying to understand is this guy has a crush on you?</p><p>and he hit you cause you didn't like him?</p><p>how come everyone who tells a story about getting hit calls it a sucker punch</p><p> you poked a wild animal and it bit you<br />
</p><p>&nbsp;or is the story about how the guy hit you but nobody else cared that it happend but he hit you for what?</p><p>I hope you post more I like that your writing actully sounds like it's in a voice instead of perfect bla bla computer talk<br />
</p>

[Alice S. Fuzzybutt]

<p>There was a lot of info to take in from your post so bear with me. I think Danny is in the wrong for sucker punching you. I say you are away from certain elements. They are not your friends. Move on, Find new friends. Why would you even want a friend who punches your nose? A punch in the nose is extreme.</p><p>I think it's best to stay away from him and start your all new group with no attitude problems. They're are plenty of those out ther.</p>

[JoeYaDeadHomey]

<p>Thanks for the replies. I kind of ramble when I type. Yes most people call it a&nbsp; sucker punch when they get hit. Honestly I wasnt clear. I was sitting down, and he stood up and walked across the room (its a wrap around couch, with a big recliner next to it, he was in the recliner). </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>He leaned down got in my face like he was gonna hit me, turned like he was going to walk away, turned back around and hit me. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And actually its both of those things, yes I poked an animal, I'd like to think of him as a savage, because honestly who hits someone who you've hung out with and even though you dont really like eachother you get along over me saying.. no one cares. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Especially when, no one honestly cares if he was getting ass or not. I'm not getting any right now and I dont give a rats ass. If i was i wouldnt be babbling to people, &quot;im a grown ass man, i get pussy&quot;</p><p>&nbsp;The real problem to me, is no one even said anything about it, like it was completely my fault. I f you knew the people, and the amount of shit they talked in jest, and in seriousness that was tame compeletly. If i had said yanno i wouldnt bone that skank with your mule, and him pushing. Then id understand.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>mebbe its just me.&nbsp;</p>

[Death Metal Moe]

<p>Everyone's alone at some point.&nbsp; </p><p>Find out when Danny is and beat him with a weapon.</p>

[WhistlePig]

Welcome, new guy!
How long has this Danny guy been hanging around? Have you been friends with
your group longer than him or has he been around just as long? I'd say your
anger is justified if he's the newbie and none of your long-time friends defended
you. If that had been my house I'd have thrown that asshole out. But if you've
all been friends the same amount of time, I can see your other friends not
wanting to take sides, though I'm surprised NONE of them spoke up in defense
of you. But maybe they just didn't want their asses kicked. Maybe this guy
intimidates them all.
I wouldn't hang around anyone that tolerated/engaged in stupid violence like
this.

[Hottub]

<p>Sorry, when a blatant violent act takes place against one of my good friends, I'm gonna step up! Hell, even if it is a peripheral friend, I will at least speak my mind.</p><p>And if it were my house, &quot;Sorry, this night is over. Everyone get the fuck out!&quot;</p>

[mdr55]

<p>Why didn't you fight back? Is everyone afraid of that guy?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I
bet if you fought back with breaking stuff along the way while you were
fighting someone would have stopped it. I'm sure the dude wouldn't want
to see his place trashed.&nbsp;</p>

[JoeYaDeadHomey]

<p>well one thing i thought about, for a long time. if i got into a fight with anyone, id have to be extra careful, ive got a problem with my left hand, where i have limited mobility. I was more worried about him messing my hand up (hes made jokes about it before, and i didnt appreciate them) add to that i have no health insurance couldnt risk it.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>i probably should have hit him back, broke some shit in the dudes house. we've all been friends pretty much the same time, but still someone should have said something. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>i really think thats whats got me the most. the more days that pass the better i feel, i havent had any contact with any of them since saturday, so i guess that says everything i needed to know.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>thank you so much everyone for your opinions and words of wisdom, a few of them had crossed my mind. i look forward to chatting with everyone in the future ^_^.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>as for me, a good friend of mine told me, drink a beer and find a skank at a bar.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>thats what i plan on doing tomorrow.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img border="0" src="http://www.ronfez.net/messageboard/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/drunk.gif" />&nbsp;</p>

[Billy Staples]

<p>I see it as this:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>you are more angry at yourself for letting it happen.&nbsp; In your thoughts you didnt give a shit what yousaid, but after you got popped you didn't do anything yourself.</p><p>that to me is the key and why you feel so lousy, a missed opportunity to stand up and defend yourself.&nbsp; </p><p>Your friends are shitty or pussies, but if you didnt stand up to this guy,, well maybe than &nbsp;they are too scared or say, what the F he didnt why should I.&nbsp; They are more scared than you were, at least you said something and i bet it felt good...and worth the punch</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>friends like that aint really friends.&nbsp; Friends are someone who has got your back no matter what.&nbsp;They will never leave you hangin, go out on their own without you, leave you bleeding and hunimiated and do shit behind your back.</p><p>Its unfortunate, but the time to act is gone...time to deal with it, cause if you are going to think the thoughts of i dont give a shit, I'm sayin something, I'm gonna stand up to this guy, you better be ready to.</p><p>and yes, that is a sucker punch......let him try that in jail he wont last</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Billy</p>

<p>These people are not your friends. A true friend or friends&nbsp;would be there for you when you get in a predicament such as this, even if they are scared.&nbsp;My advice is forget them,&nbsp;and go after the asshole that punched you, make him regret hitting you.&nbsp;Since you are at a disadvantage with your&nbsp;hand, mace him, then&nbsp;beat the shit out of him.&nbsp;Whatever you decide to do,&nbsp;Good Luck. &nbsp;</p>

[furie]

so what's the lesson here, you can't count on your friends or; don't mouth off to a psycho who can kick your ass if you are not prepared to back it up?

[Arienette]

you are more angry at yourself for letting it happen.&nbsp; In your thoughts you didnt give a shit what yousaid, but after you got popped you didn't do anything yourself. <p>that to me is the key and why you feel so lousy, a missed opportunity to stand up and defend yourself.&nbsp; </p>that's such crap.&nbsp; maybe i'm missing some stupid male ego thing, but it sounds like avoiding a fight with this danny fellow was the best way to go.&nbsp; it's the one thing joe and his &quot;friends&quot; could agree on. <p>&nbsp;</p><p>i'm with all of those who said that these people aren't really your friends and that you're better off without them. the thing that's getting to me (and the reason i bothered posting after all that's already been said) is all the talk of whether or not you were right or wrong in talking shit to danny.&nbsp; it doesn't matter.&nbsp; even if you were out of line (which it doesn't sound to me like you were) or poking a dangerous animal, once that asshole hit you and you're bleeding out of your&nbsp;face, your&nbsp;friends became obligated to do something&nbsp;- help you, kick him out, ask if you're ok, <em>something</em>.&nbsp; the fact that none of them have even bothered to see how&nbsp;you are days later just confirms that they are complete fucking idiots and not even worth the time you've spent thinking about them.</p><p>and it'll be really funny when danny turns on them.</p>

[CYYYFYYY]

Hey Newbie.&nbsp; I have to say you are 100 percent correct.&nbsp; The thing is most people are scum and when you need them they are not there for you.&nbsp; Am i bitter.&nbsp; Actually not so much.&nbsp; I have some amazing friends but my secondary friends are typical humans who are scummish.

[reeshy]

Don't worry about it....I get punched in the face everytime I come on this board!!!!!!!

[JoeYaDeadHomey]

<p>just a little update, i was in the area of where this guy works, on saturday buying some paint.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>im drinking a snapple walking back to my car with my brother in law, i see danny, he comes up to me asks me if i liked what he did. i told him actually i did and cracked the snapple bottle across his forehead, and when he was on the ground i spit on his face and told him we were even.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;it felt so good. maybe not the best choice, but hey ive got a witness i felt like i was threatened.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>probably wont get in trouble either. not saying its right, but eye for an eye. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>thank you board buddies!&nbsp;</p>

[suggums]

<p>not that i condone violence or anything but...</p><p><img border="0" src="http://www.ronfez.net/messageboard/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/lol.gif" />&nbsp;</p>

[walking joint]

<p>the mean streets of Astoria</p><p>probably wont get in trouble either. not saying its right, but eye for an eye</p><p>probably won't get in trouble, but chances are if you see him again he will kick your ass.&nbsp; i'd carry around a Snapple bottle everywhere&nbsp;you go.</p>

[JoeYaDeadHomey]

<p>at this point it'd be worth it. i thought about that too. im looking to buy some pepper spray, i know i escalated the situation, but i just kind of snapped, i was stewing about it all week. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;so i did what i thought was appropriate. ^_^ im pretty sure part of it was he thought i was a pushover, probably the same school yard mentality bullshit that lead to the whole original situation.<br /></p>

[Dougie Brootal]

<p>did he bleed?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>if not, you gotta do it again.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>blood for blood.</p><p><img src="http://inthisveryring.com/pictures/eddieblood3.jpg" border="0" /></p>

[WhistlePig]

Let's just hope he doesn't try to sue you! That happened to my brother-in-law. He
beat this guy up in retaliation and the guy goes and sues him. He had to spend
thousands on lawyers etc. Big mess.
I have to admit I smiled when I read you got him back. I love it when an asshole
gets his!

[Hottub]

<p>Yeah, you may get your ass kicked down the road, but for now, ENJOY the moment!!!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>KUMATE!!!</p><p><img title="Snapple kicks ass!!" height="150" alt="Snapple kicks ass!!" src="http://www.irritantnumber4.com/images/jcvd_bloodsport03-thumb.jpg" width="200" border="0" /></p>

[FUNKMAN]

<p>i did and cracked the snapple bottle across his forehead</p><p>that's one quick way to get to the snapple fact...</p>

[angelinad128]

<p>Well, you found out who your real friends are. Good for you for standing upr to him and saying what you felt. They are assholes.&nbsp;</p>

[Death Metal Moe]

<p>You hit him back, good.&nbsp; </p><p>Start carrying a knife on you, and DO NOT be afraid to use it.&nbsp; </p><p>Seriously.</p>

[JoeYaDeadHomey]

<p>yea, i felt pretty good. i got a call earlier in the night from a person that was at the house that night. he told me danny actually got arrested buying weed sunday. They also said they were afraid of him thats why they didnt say anything. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>i dont care i told them to fuck off. only good thing is he was on probation, he does not pass go, does not collect 200 dollars, and most of all is not a pain in my ass anymore!&nbsp;</p>

[1witty1]

this story has a happy ending. Good job <img src="http://www.ronfez.net/messageboard/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/clap.gif" border="0" />. I am proud of you Daniel-son (karate kid).
