I was a non functioning alcoholic and ran with some rough types in my late teens/early 20s and have both kicked ass and had my ass kicked. Mostly drunken barfights.
One time someone legitimately mistook me for someone else and started cussing at me, so I started cussing back and pushed him to the ground. He got up and did a really neat move actually where he faked a kick and then socked me right in the cheek, knocked me on my ass. I apologized, got up, we figured out the misunderstanding and he bought me a beer.
Does getting knocked out by walking into a glass door count? Broke my nose, btw.
You are a powerful walker
This made me laugh out loud and now my wife wants to know what was funny… Thank you.
Not as powerful as the glass door, though.
Get busy walking or get busy dying. #volkswalk
I drove through southern England in a camper van. A car coming the other way at a narrow part of the road stopped and the driver motioned for me to wind my window down. I stopped beside him and did so cause I thought he wanted to ask or tell me something. He punched me in the face and drove off.
To this day I have no idea what that was about, the only explanation I could come up with were my German license plates.I’m sorry that must have sucked, but that’s a hilarious story
Luckily there isn’t much weight behind an upwards punch from a car seat. He knocked my glasses down, otherwise I was completely bewildered but unhurt.
ah, a local welcome punch. a highest honor
In some towns that makes you the mayor.
You were on the right lane 🙂
No. Most of the world drives on the right lane. The British drive on the correct lane.
I don’t think I ever got punched in the face. Haven’t even been in a fight.
Many many times. Because I boxed. Nothing more fun than being punched in the face under the right conditions.
My brother and I were dancing at his wedding. He was imitating dance-moves that Mac from IASIP does with his elbows and accidentally bow’ed me in the jaw. It hurt but was pretty funny.
Same brother as a teen was showing me his shadow-boxing skills and punched my nose. Again it was funny, but it made me cry lol. Obviously I’m the younger sibling…
The only person I have ever punched and been actually punched by is my brother. I forget what we were yelling at in our apartment but we’re twins. We got each other in headlocks and just traded punches to the dome. I’m sure that looked like a cartoon from an outside perspective.
Only if you count the accidental backhanded punch of my ex-wife while I was having a dream where I got attacked and had to punch someone.
I’ve never been punched in the face, only had my face full force thrust into a vending machine by a teenage bully when I was like 8 or 9 because I wouldn’t let him cut in the long line at the pool and use the money I had already started putting in the machine.
I signed up for it (Muay Thai)
Back when MMA was a new thing I did a class. Made my ears ring lol
Once, a couple of months ago when a junkie broke into my house.
I like to box, but I’m also not super good at it so multiple times.
I was 27 and traveling. I had some time to kill so headed to a local bar for a few drinks before I turned in for the evening. Of all the people in this fairly crowded bar, I get a loud drunk guy that thinks he knows me, he keeps putting his arm around my shoulder, trying to act chummy, telling anyone who will listen that “we’re cool, old friends”.
I got fed up and stressed he didn’t know me, to keep his hands off me. well, he took great offense to this, exchanged some words and stormed off. I figured that was that… But some time goes by, he returns and again throws his arm around me. This time I forcibly removed it. Before I could even process the whole situation, his other hand came around and punched me square in the face knocking me on my ass.
I hopped up, pushed him through the crowd and put him through a standalone table. He was pretty hammered and didn’t get up immediately, the bartenders started yelling at me acting like I was the aggressor. I bolted straight to the door and got the hell out before anything came of it, dunno what happened to the guy and I was back on the road bright and early.
Threw a man’s belongings off a train because he was listening to music without headphones.
Worth it.
You’re doing God’s work.
You, uh… you ok bro?
I was maybe a little inebriated, and he was very rude.
He had to wait for the next train, and I had a sore jaw for a week. Mild inconveniences al round. I think everyone got what they deserved.
so many times. abusive gf. boxing lessons. getting jumped by 10 people. fights… etc
I got socked trying to break up a 5 man brawl at a steak n shake.
Pulled a guy off another guy and he turned around and punched me in the eye. That was right before someone threw a chair through one of the windows.
Everyone just kinda stopped after that and the dude that punched me apologized.
That was kind of the end of the whole ordeal as everyone just kinda left real quick.
