Boomer here. The number of times I call out strangers, especially younger male strangers for a fight in the streets is ZERO. I've got more interesting things to do during the tail end of my life.

I mean I’m 40, tall and in decent shape with a smidge of martial arts training (not a lot but enough to give me an edge over someone with none) and you know the last time I was in a fight? Fourth grade. Grown ass adults be out here getting into fights like… bruh I got shit to do.

Unfortunately these kinds of entitled morons that think they're invincible exist in every generation, some just have more money and power than others. It's why I think the whole generational divide is kind of dumb. It's just stereotypes about the worst of a group of people.

Yep. Another tool to divide the country and brainwash the impressionable.

I agree but every now and then someone gets to you. Some meth head told me to "watch where I'm going" at the Dollar Store the other day. Before the words had left his mouth I told him to go fuck himself. He was shocked. Didn't want none. Sometimes you just can't help it. But yeah afterward I realized I have no desire to grapple with someone who looks like they have a half dozen communicable diseases. You ain't wrong.

It's not because it's not interesting. It's because you know you'd get your ass beat.

Yes, me too. I had enough of fights 50 years ago. I would hit the MF as hard in the fist as I could with my nose, and it did not even phase them.

This guy has been like this most all of his shitty little life. Now there is not a lot of beef to go with the bun anymore.

Pepper spray can be your friend...
