So, I'm on a public bus. I use it as my transportation, since I don't have a car. I went to the doctor to get a prescription. All my teeth are aching on the left side of my face. Face, neck, head, everything!!! So, I'm loading on painkillers, orajel, icyhot, the complete works. I get on an emptyb to go home and this guy sits right next to me. Like hello, we have a pandemic going on and you got the entire bus to choose from. Instead you sit next to me. Fine. I endure. Btw, I took my mask off before I got back on the bus, because the pain was so excruciating(the mask put excessive pressure on my cheek and for those who know anything about sinusitis...). Plus, I didn't feel like moving. So, at this point, I feel like I'm tolerating this ignorant guy. So I hawk up some orajel and mucus in my water bottle, because I didn't want to swallow it. Then I hear a click and feel a breeze(another no-no for sinuses). This bastard actually opened the window. Like I'M a problem!!! The bus driver already knew my sinus issue. He immediately told the guy to close the window. I got up and sat to the front of the bus. But the nerve of that guy really ticked me off. I hate people who look for problems. I feel he deliberately sat next to me with negativity on his mind. Strangely, I live in an area full of problem starters. But this in particular really grinded my gears. Especially when I tried to be tolerate. RANT OVER
I'm at the point where I've stopped tolerating just to give strangers face. They want to be dipshits, they get treated like dipshits. You gotta look out for yourself.
In my head, I usually solve all my problems the way John wick does. And I don't mean the gold coins way. Just imagine, shoving the guys head through the open window, then bashing the window close on his head, repeatedly. If imagining that doesn't help relieve some of your pain, I don't know what will. Of course a word of caution here. Under medication, especially pain killers, it might be difficult to hold back your thoughts from influencing your actions. So you might wanna do the imagining when alone.
I realize now my sentence was semantically ambiguous. I meant I don't care if they get embarrassed by me. And if they're 2-faced, I'll just slap both faces .
I'm not sure why he set next to you as that is odd, but maybe he opened the window cause he thought you were hot or not feeling well after gulping down the water bottle? So he may have thought the breeze would help. You may have simply misunderstood them because of your bad mood and his intentions backfiring. You never know... Of course there are no shortage of people doing stupid stuff intentionally.
DUde.... You shouldnt have tolerated the guy sitting next to you, simple say that are feeling sick and are in the way to the hospital, that will scare him off
Lol. I'm liking the suggestions. I know. My parents engraved courtesy into my body to a fault. So, my first reaction is to go out of my way to be polite to people. I give most people the benefit of the doubt, but my instincts are usually right. Unfortunately, I don't always follow them. Wish I'd thought of that. But then, he'd probably run off to tell everybody to create more problems for me I did laugh reading your post.
Tell him, "Opening the window doesn't help. You're already a dead man walking." Well, it's not a lie. He'll die eventually, with or without your help.
i really think that the guy is trying to pickpocket you..... And do say it with a low, husky, a la godfather/devil hunter pitch please
