I really would've hated being shot or stabbed though.
Thats why you make sure that you are faster, and stronger.
You're too fucking kind.
You have a lot to learn about dealing with hobos.Quote:

Until he gets off the phone, and says, "you know, I'm gonna keep this."
"No you're not."
"Hey man! Back off! I have had a job in months, I'm living in the streets! YOu don't want to mess with me," as he reaches in his pants pocket and starts fumbling with something.
"Okay, so you're down on your luck, but you still can't have that phone."
"Really, it's that important to you?"
"Yes."
"Hmmmm...40 bucks and you can have it back."
"40?! What the hell?"
"HEY MAN! Don't make me do something I don't want to..." as reaches in the pocket again.
So after arguing it out, he gets the last 20 in my wallet and I get my phone back. It was all so bizarre; after he even hung out to wait for his bus. Thank goodness it wasn't mine. If it wasn't for him reaching for who-knows-what, maybe I would've wrestled the phone back.
And man, if he's homeless and living on the street, he would pawned that gun long ago, and you should have knocked his lights out the matter he said "you're not getting this phone back".Quote:

Plus, you're way too damn nice to let a STRANGER use your cell phone.
That is the key phrase here.Quote:

Let a stranger use my cell phone? Never. You can be too kind.
I learned that lesson the hard way.Quote:

What gets me is this guy was talking about 'no money' this and that, but he had sharper clothes and more expensive shoes than I did. Bah.
i agree,he has to draw his weapon,yours was already out, kick him in the balls and then beat his head in. you really are far too nice for the city you live in, maybe where i live that would fly, but nowhere with any actual population.Quote:
