You won't BELIEVE what just happened....

So what does Last Man Standing look like in real life?

This chick is a friend of a friend who I met on cinco de mayo, we have partied a few times since and gotten progressively more physical with each other each time.

I don't understand just how close you are to her. It sounded like you didn't even have her phone number.

I don't have her #. She's my friend on Myspace though! LOL

I could have asked for it by now and I'm sure I would have gotten it but she's one of those "if it ever happens" kind of chicks. I'm not looking to date her so it's better to just let it progress through group meet ups.

Oh yea....you were probably trying to figure out why I would have done this for a chick when I don't even have her digits....like I said, I probably would have done it for any chick having witnessed the circumstances. The fact that I know her just caused me to take action a little sooner

So, he looks like the Zig-zag guy?


Anyway, there is a little side effect of being an "Alpha": you tend to look after the rest of the pack.

That being said, it makes perfect sense why STR8UP would put himself between her and an aggressor. She might not have been fuxing (yet), she may have in the past and they are through, or they are currently fuxing... that is all irrelevant. The fact of the matter is this chick was "part of STR8UP's pack".

It could have been his brother, grandmother, friend's daughter, or neighbor's wife sitting there and he would have done the same thing: those people are in his "pack".

Besides, even if he didn't know these chicks AT ALL, there is still a thing called "chivalry". And even still, there's a thing called a "situational opener".

Hell, I probably would have went up and got in dude's sh!t for harshing my mellow while I was trying to eat - not paying ANY attention to the chicks. People just don't fuxing know how to act anymore, especially in public, and the fact that STR8UP could've been "shot or stabbed" only prooves my point.

Dude, I think that's Jack Nicholson.

As I have posted before, I don't believe in the concept of "alpha" as being absolute- it is situational and can and does fluctuate. I suppose in this instance I would have been considered alpha.

That being said, it makes perfect sense why STR8UP would put himself between her and an aggressor. She might not have been fuxing (yet), she may have in the past and they are through, or they are currently fuxing... that is all irrelevant. The fact of the matter is this chick was "part of STR8UP's pack".

Something that hasn't really been touched on is how I would have been perceived if the guy had decked her, and after the fact she found out that I was sitting there watching the whole thing. I mean, I technically didn't have any responsibility to this chick, but if I would have sat back and allowed it to happen I would have looked like a girly man. Lets be clear about this though....that's NOT why I did it.

Besides, even if he didn't know these chicks AT ALL, there is still a thing called "chivalry".

Really, anyone who could sit back and watch a dude pound on a chick after she made it clear that he was invading her space and was not welcome, well, you're not much of a man. And I'm not about violence AT ALL. It's just a matter of principle.

Hell, I probably would have went up and got in dude's sh!t for harshing my mellow while I was trying to eat - not paying ANY attention to the chicks.

Actually, I found it pretty amusing up to the point where the dude got out of his chair and started to move toward her. There was one other couple in the room as well and I think the dude got pissed off about it, but I was enjoying the show!

Mix feelings about this as I think everybody has provided good points.

Now...if she gets into similar situation in the future by instigating or running her mouth without realizing that many men today have no issues punching a woman...then in my book she is dangerous.

I am neutral on how str8up reacted. I probably would have done the same if I knew her well. But then again...I might have done nothing if I felt she was going over board with her insults.

 

[Latinoman]

Note: He didn't get into a fight. He simply difused the situation. Dangerous? Possibly. Necessary? Depends of the situation.

She was definitely running her mouth. I think the reason the dude stayed around for all of the insults is that if he would have left after she started to get loud he would have had to tuck tail and walk away looking like an ass.

But the fact of the matter is, if a woman is running her mouth, you get up and walk away, you don't assault her. I could be wrong, but from what I understand of the law, this guy technically could have gone to jail for throwing the cup of water. Harmless? Well, it didn't HURT her, but the line has to be drawn somewhere. And when you have to resort to that kind of thing when a woman is only giving you a tongue lashing, that's WEAK.

I guess the dude couldn't have sent any insults back to her. Whats he gonna say "well you're UGLY"? He was hitting on them and they rejected him publicly and he was humiliated.

Regardless, he crossed the line when he threw the water, and he REALLY crossed the line when he started to step up to her, doesn't matter what she said or how she said it. I'm not gonna sit there and watch some dude who is out of line and physically stronger beat on a chick, doesn't matter who it is.

 

[Mr.Positive]

Intentionally throwing water on someone is battery, which is a misdemeanor. If she wanted to, she could have pressed charges and had him arrested. He probably would have gotten a fine, maybe a day or two in jail, if he didn't have bail money.

Throwing water at someone and missing them, is assault. A misdemeanor too, but lessor of a crime. Messed up...I know.

 

[joekerr31]

only a total idiot tosses water on a stranger, man or woman.

sounds like hes a guy whose been to one to many strip bars and thinks women are there to entertain him. also sounds like he may have had too much to drink (which would explain his behavior).

but that said, i've also seen some women who have treated polite, decent guys like utter utter trash just because he had the balls to approach and say hello. there are women who will respond with "youuuuur joking right? run along and leave us alone."

now if i were to witness someone toss a glass of water in one of those women's faces i think i'd end up rolling around on the ground laughing till I pissed myself.

there are women who get a great deal of satisfaction out of hurting men. that's why the cold approach is so hard for most men, because of the possibility that the woman they are approaching might be a total b*tch who cuts their nuts off and laughs in the face as she does it.

this is why its sooooooooooooooooooooooooo important in life not to care what anyone thinks about you. You really have to be able to see bad behavior by others as a negative reflection of who THEY are, not as validation that there is something wrong with you.

becuase if you let the *ssholes of the world get to you, you end up like this guy, tossing water in the face of a woman.

Yea, he looked pretty wasted. Good thing I don't drink that vile stuff

Yea, I was a victim of one of those rude ass b!tches one time in a club. Funny thing is I wasn't even hitting on anyone in her group. I was just dancing having a great time when this chick with a CIGAR in her mouth tells me "BACK OFF" I was like, "EXCUSE ME?" She said it again and one of her friends who was a little more polite explained that it was a girls night out and they didn't want to be bothered by guys. I felt like letting this chick with a CIGAR in her mouth (very unattractive, IMO) know exactly how freakin disgusting I thought she was and that I wasn't hitting on ANYONE, but what would be the point? I just turned my back to them and continued to do my thing.

now if i were to witness someone toss a glass of water in one of those women's faces i think i'd end up rolling around on the ground laughing till I pissed myself.

Actually, it was even funnier when the half slice of pizza caught this guy square in the face!

And I can see this girl having some of those tendencies, but she really didn't do anything that was out of line, certainly nothing to deserve some dude in her face.

I agree, but it's tough to always let sh!t roll off your back. Just one of those qualities that help you TREMENDOUSLY the closer you come to being able to master it.

 

[joekerr31]

the key to letting it roll of your back to to truly understand that only an *sshole would be rude to someone who was paying them a compliment.

like even if the ugliest woman in the world came up to me and asked me out, id be polite in turning her down. i might THINK to myself "Oh my god. not in a million years. that moustache you have is about to make me puke". but to her i'd say "thanks you for the offer. i appreciate it. unfortunately I'm not available. but thanks again for asking."

now if you ever find yourself ont he dance floor and some chic blasting you like that chic you wrote about did, i think the best response is the following...

her: BACK OFF buddy.
you: (staying totally calm) excuse me?
her: back off.
you: (looking at anyone close to her that heard her reaction and with a big smile say to them one of the following...)

'looks like someone got a day pass."
"it's ok, she left her meds at home"
"must be that time of the month"
"and they say all the good women are taken." (note sarcasm)

[or make up your own. anything that belittles her reaction while being light hearted and up beat is fine]

then go on your marry way.

if she tries to start trouble just start saying loudly 'hey lady, back off. I'm NOT goign to have a one night stand with you."

hehe.

 

[STR8UP]

Funny sh!t. The key is to not let it get to you, and have fun with it.

I know women can be CRUEL. Hell, this 21 yr old would have likely blown me right out of the water on a cold approach, but since I was introduced through friends I managed to slip my "old" foot in the door...lol

 

[joekerr31]

any time you get hammered by a b*tch all you gotta do is look her straight in the eye, laugh and then belittle her statement.

man, i've delt with plenty of b*tches in the corporate world. these women walk in to a meeting and crack the whip on the men. if they are hot 95% of the men fall in to line instantly.

their minds go to puddy as they stare at her legs and then next thing you know WHAM she verbally cracks the whip on the group of them. they are like deer in the headlights, they dont know what to do, and by then its too late, she's in control.

when im in the room and that happens i instantly challenge her power. i look her right in the eye and laugh. i've yet to meet a woman who has called me on that. they NEVER say 'what do you think is so funny?" - because they KNOW i will go toe to toe with them.

after that i proceed to basically bust their balls through out the meeting. i challenge them on any flawed logic in their strategy. i push them on details about how we will deal with x, y or z should they occur. i basically make them look weak and ineffective in front of everyone. they usually end up resenting me while all the guys are patting me on the back afterwards.

some women hate men and will take any opportunity to bust their balls. but if you stare them down, and laugh (as though they were a child trying to pick a fight with a grown adult) it almost always messes with their minds big time.

oh and just so people dont think im sexist. when an *sshole male tries to bully everyone around, i do the same thing to him

 

[STR8UP]

Got a call today from our mutual friend saying that "S" came in to work today and told her about the pizza joint incident, but couldn't remember the details so she told her to ask me about it. I guess she once again exclaimed how I "showed up out of nowhere" to "protect her from getting beat up by an old man".

I think a blow job should be in order, eh? lol
