The risk of buying an expensive car....
- Thread starter wetnose
- Start date
I always pick the parking stalls the furthest distance from the store....Even up here they are not big enough for most full sized Diesels.
I was sitting in my truck doing some paperwork for livestock hauling....When a "New Canadian" decided to open his door into my back door of my Crew Cab...Then use my box to stop his shopping cart from rolling away.
I walked around the back end of the truck and looked down at the top of his head..Because he was under 5 foot tall....I then informed him that I was not pleased with his disrespect of my rather new, and very expensive, piece of property.
He then said that "it's all dirty anyhow", and said something about " why I cared? "
OK....So this is the part I'm not proud of....
He then took his door and tapped it against my fender and said....It's not dented"..Tap...Tap...Tap..That was the third mistake in our 30 second encounter.
Now I'm a rough around the edges Cowboy, and for the most part I keep my temper in check.
My Mamma always said to ,turn the other cheek, and love thy neighbor.....So I asked him if he'd like a hand loading his groceries into the backseat of his little Japanese import....
I didn't think that all those groceries would fit in that backseat....Along with the shopping cart.

Well done, Sybian. Unfortunately, some folk have no respect other people's property.
I would have asked him how he'd like me to disrespect his ride. I guarantee that my disrespect can be very forceful at times.
Lol. I remember some guy slamming his door into my beat up old suv. He laughed at me when gently told it wasn't a nice thing to do. So he did it again! I grabbed my baseball bat from the back and quietly advised him to have respect for other people's property. You don't know who might piss off. He disappeared rather hastily.
Asshole! Likely one that has damaged my luxury car! Grrrrr!!!!!

Wow. Just no respect for other people's hard-earned property. I was raised the same way Tanya, respect other people's property even if it's already a dented piece of shit or they're rich assholes who don't deserve it, I'm always careful.
I used to carry a black Louisville slugger and a couple of 5-irons in my trunk in my crazy days. If I was ever asked to pop the trunk by five-0 I would just say I'm a sporty kinda guy.

....^....Yeah, I just say I'm a Firefighter for forestry, when they ask about the beat up red axe handle under my back seat.
Most will shy away from violence when it presents itself....Then there are others that use it to get their way, or manipulate the situation.
I've always enjoyed confronting them, and their fragile world , that they think is protecting them.
