Last weekend I went to the pub for the first time in a long time. All fine and dandy until the walk to a takeaway, I was with 4 other friends that are caucasian...(footnote: Please do not misunderstand the point of this thread I am meerly using my own experience to get a point over)...
3 or 4 little chav's thought it was wise to walk past an oriental (me) and start making Bruce Lee noises at me (I giggled at least I thought they got the ethnicity correct...reiterate I THOUGHT!!!) I didn't want any physical trouble to start which it didn't by my friends we ignored they walked past.
However, the chickens that they are then proceded to quote me lines from Full Metal Jacket i.e. 'me love you long time...' yadda yadda yadda.
At this point I was besides myself with laughter as they couldn't stick to the ethnic origin they were aiming for they could have come out with 'can I have the cream of some young guy' (Waynes World) 'WWAAARRR' the usual patter
... at this point I shouted back
"I wish your **** (manhood: you can guess the word) was as big as your mouth!!!" Proud of that one!!!
They had nothing better to say but more lines from Full Metal Jacket, afterthought at least they were cultured enough to have seen Full Metal jacket (I like that film BTW)
I am not condoning what I've done I should have left well alone and walked off without it having an effect, sometimes it just gets too much when someone still shouts '*****y' at me.
My question is has anyone else had experiences were you are proud of your verbal retalitaion? It can be for anything your boss, family argument, when having a domestic, Racism, Sexism, Ageism, Homophobia against you or someone you were defending etc.
