OK, heres what happened.
Drifter talks about getting in a dustup at a pub with some drunk asshole who was grabassing his wife during a friendly game of pool. The second time he confronts the guy, who bashes him, and the place goes up as drunkfuck 's buddies come out.
Now Drifter was there with his stepson and wife, so naturally afterwards he feels bad, that he put them both in danger - feels maybe he just should have left.
Many, including Darth Tang, concur. EpicHero comes along with his "way to man up. Violence is sometimes neccessary; if you had run away your wife would think you were a coward." I overreacted and called him a UFC watching dickwad for using the shit-stupid phrase "man up" in a situation where dude's schizophrenic stepson gets involved in a dust up in front of his mom and his 40+ stepdad, who is lying on the ground getting the shit kicked out of him. Further explained my feelings calling him a dickwad yet again. Also the phrase "Greater Internet Fuckwad theory" came up once.
I had been warned about PAs a couple of months ago by Dan The Man, and had forgotten, so I got a three-day vacation (still think a 1 day would have been sufficient, as I can count the number of warnings I've had on one hand, and probably using half the available fingers on that hand, and never have been suspended at all ever, but I'll accept the 3 day).
I cursed the guy out over a trivial matter (still think its a fuckwad thing to say, especially where dude expressed his regret and despair over it several times), and got punished. I know the rules and didn't play by them. That makes ME the fuckwad, because in every place, there are rules. Some less, some more, but theres no place anywhere thats totally free from any rules or laws. You play by them, and if you don't its your own stupid fault and shouldn't bitch about it.
