Am I in the wrong????

it doesnt matter if you were in the right or wrong, the sort of person who carries a weapon will be offended regardless and probably looking for an excuse to have a fight.

report him to the police for carrying an offensive weapon
 
don't worry, happens to me all the time, i made a "your mum" and "funny as cancer" joke to a girl on our first date...those of you playing along at home who guessed that her mum died of cancer, you are correct!
strangely enough we continued seeing each other for another 2 months :s
 
Is he OBVIOUSLY a "special ability" case? (Read above, ignore ;))

Some men are just short and some are short because of a medical reason.

People in the former tend to have, as already mentioned, Small Man Complex or Little Man Syndrome. Never ever mention it to them!

It's like if you see a girl who is particularly tall say 6ft2+ ...don't EVER say anything no matter how tempted or curious or genuinely interested you are, I almost learnt the hard way!

Basically it wouldn't have helped the situation when talking about being small if you are a particularly tall/built chap. This would have angered him more, by making him think that you are superior just because you are bigger.

In conclusion, it's his problem not yours. You did nothing wrong, although if he is that small you could have probably used a bit of common sense and thought about it a little more before saying anything. You tried to apologise like any normal person after a genuine mistake, but it wasn't well received - not your problem.

It's the sort of "I see a woman with a big fat tummy, do I say congratulations or just avoid the scenario?" question that you should really know how to answer/navigate around.

This, he's being a **** forget him.

I'm 6'6" and built like a rugby player, people are always going on about it. I don't get offended about it.

This is why the small man complex exists.

People are always going on about how tall you are, how big you are and generally all things associated with being manly, alpha and GRRRRR. There is no problem.

Being a tiny bloke you don't get all that and therefore will probably hold a grudge against "Real" men.
 
Going on what you've said and little else I would say sod em. It was a joke , you apologised and they didn't accept it. You will probably be now be know as 'that tool' but don't be offended, you can't be friends with everyone.
 
Just found out that the guy had a Knife on him which he was going to use on me.
Im sorry but I dont care what is said if he is willing to go that far even though I said I was sorry he is the complete tool not me.

Maybe his special ability was Knife Thrower Extraordinaire...

If the other guy had been drinking then they probably will have affected his judgement too. He may well regret his outburst though people find it hard to admit that part;) so I wouldn't worry about it, sometimes it takes two to tango, you meant well and that is the most important thing.
 
Almost as bad as me and a few friends out for a meal, we got there early, sat down at the table and waited for some more of my friends to arrive (they didn't know the people that were dueto arrive)
In comes my huge black mate and I see he heads for the bar as I point him out to my mates..
One of my mates then shouts out

Oi sooty, we're over here!

OMFGG :eek:
