... oh boy yes!
When someone makes a mistake, all cool, pick yourself up, dust off the sand and have a laugh about it but then when you get some douche who is clearly a bully and does dumb things in an inappropriate spot that will surely end badly, I become a different person indeed.
My son being ever respectful was waiting for a guy having a chat to his girlfriend with his kite parked at 12 o'clock right in the landing zone, he was hanging onto his kite in a gusty 20 to 25 knots with me waiting to catch the kite, he was just on the edge of control.
A third person (douche) who then came racing in right through the 2 kites nearly taking the 2 kites out and with no room for error and a wooden fence downwind, there would have been carnage. I glared at the guy but said nothing, waiting for my sons kite to land him.
But then the douche mouthed off at me in a foreign lanuguage so I saw red, f this , i'm going to front this d!ckhead and let him know I didn't approve of his dangerous move. I landed my sons kite and stomped off toward the guy who had a bunch of his mates around him. I barked at him, " do you understand english"? Even at that moment he had a chance to calm me down quickly but his response enraged me further, one sorry would have done it.
As the arguement continued with alot of f's and c's used by me (I'm sure he understood them well enough), all his mates standing around him realized he made a bad move and left him!! Pussies, 6 of them and only one of me (I supose it helps being 6'4" and 120 kg). He was all brave with 6 mates around him and I was moments away from jumping him when he turned around to see he was alone. Sorry sory sorry all of a sudden. I told him if he did anything like that again I wouldn't ask him if he understands english, it will be my fist asking him!! If you would get to know me, that is so not me to get physical!! Were adults after all, we should be using our words, not fists! Damn did he get me angry!
Anger like that isn't good for you and definetly not my thing at all, I'm usually a big teddy bear! But sometimes it can happen hey!
cheers,
