I`ve changed considerably over the last few decades..........years ago I would have taken your watch and wallet,abducted you and held you for ransom, then simply disposed of your body in a 50 gallon drum.
These days I just tell postal employees who try to fuck me to kiss my ass!
People will only learn not to take my kindness for weakness when I put them in their place which usually stuns them into either no comment mode, or turns them into stuttering fucks!
It would seem you have matured greatly. The idea of ending up in a 50 gallon drum with no wallet and no watch is really unappealing. I for one am really glad that you are over that period in your life.
All I know about you is how you present yourself and what you write in your posts on Getbig. What you or any of us actually mean is often a mystery yet to be solved. It is so easy to get things wrong about people's intent in this type of medium.
Wes, you've been through a lot over the past year. I really feel for you because anyone who has faced or been around someone who has looked death in the eye knows that it is hell. You're one of the lucky ones. You're still around to raise hell with a postal worker or whoever you want if that's what makes you feel better or in some way validated.
Maybe I got it wrong, but you showed everyone here that you are as vulnerable as any of us. Shit can take you down, as it can anyone. It took a little while, but you rose above those low points and became the champion once again. That's really what being the tough guy is all about and you are the much tougher than a lot of other people.
You seem to have had a recent burst of anger. Only you know where that's coming from and why. I just hope that everything is okay with you. You are so much better than some idiot postal worker or annoying driver. Embrace that knowledge and don't let trivial things bring you down.
Kindness is a virtue. It's not important if strangers mistake it for weakness. You know you are not weak. You possess the confidence to get you through those annoying moments and not really give a crap what others think.
Okay. Carry on. This is my lesson of the day. Now, if I could just learn to practice what I preach....right?
