Confrontation Yes/No?

I probably would have said something jolly and sarcastic like "Always do mate" or "Me? I'm going right to the top" and got on with my day?

Don't take it personal OP, the guy is probably living a deeply bitter and horrible existence. Just pity him and you will forget about it.

Actually had a great example last week on the tube. I got onto a tube that was relatively empty and headed to the seat closest to me right next to door I entered from. A couple of blokes entered through the next doors down, one of them charged along the carriage ignoring several empty seats, barged me out of the way and sat right in front of me. Needless to say some choice words were exchanged and I had to remove myself from the situation before I battered him.

Before you battered him? If you're serious then you have issues :confused:

Err, no. The problem with people that like to mouth off is that they do it for a reason. 9 times out of 10 it's because they want a physical altercation. Why else do they go around mouthing off to people?

Do you really want to be the guy on life support because they respond to your "hilarious quip" with a sucker punch? :confused: Some people aren't worth the air they breathe, you know what makes you a big man? Walking away. Let some neanderthal at their level come along and have the punch up.

This. Most people like this are their own punishment. Walk away happy that you're happy - if indeed you are happy. If anyone throws comments at me on the street I completely ignore them - I don't even acknowledge. That infuriates them usually, but I'm already gone, happily whistling and enjoying my day.

If confrontation is unavoidable or someone is attacking my family or friends then it's a different matter. Time to put your big boy pants on and get stuck in.
 
Have we had boxing stance yet? Stand & bang? Poo through his letterbox? Hardman flatten him with keyboard?

Perfect thread for GD bingo tbh.

Agreed, anyone spoiling for a fight isn't going to get one from me very easily.
 
I would have just called a ***** or something and carried on my way.

I am getting worse for it as I get older, I'll just call people straight to their face when they let doors go as as i am following them etc.

People at garages are the worst for this.
 
No, total none issue. Best thing to do is keep on walking, it could be anything from a hangover to the loss of a family member. The day you thump someone like that will be the day they have an underlaying medical problem and you will end up in court.

No issues, just a bad temper and if people are aggressive towards me they get aggression back as well.

Seriously, you have issues if you're going to batter someone for taking your seat on the tube. I'd recommend getting some help.

Did you even read what I posted? Someone went out of their way to walk along the carriage and purposely barge me out of the way. They didn't just take my seat
