He isn’t alone. I have noticed a lot of smaller guys act this way in the gym. I could be going to the water fountain while they could be walking in the other direction. They will purposely walk directly into you as if they are daring you to push them out of the way. That only leaves you the choice of walking in a ridiculous semi-circle to avoid this head on collision or forever be seen as the bad guy for bumping into someone much smaller. It’s only now that I wonder if this same scene is playing out in their heads. I also don’t see many jumping out of the way of investment bankers simply because they are in a suit.
This is when you need to learn some learned cluelessness. See them, but don’t seem to see them if you get what I mean. Then by accident walk into them, knock them down and profusely apologize for your clumsiness, hahaha!
I did this by accident on some bastard kids once. It was funny. Some little monster was running around being a little terror and I bent over to get something from a low shelf right when he was running by. He collided with my ass and went flying. the mom apologized to me and gave the little idiot a well needed yelling at for running into the nice man, hahaha!
This will work with teenaged wife beater wearing tough guys also. The trick is to make it seem like you just didn’t notice. Don’t be surprised if you get an apology as opposed to a why weren’t you watching.
Now, I’m alittle guy,cutting even more weight for pling. This has happened to me before. We named the kid “buttercup” or “muffintops” he is the posterboy for people who spandex wearing should be a crime for. and his 3 layers of muffintopyness theat shows through his extra tight shirt make me sick. WE alwasy get good laughs from this kid. To him showing similar asshats how did deadlift with more spinal roundng then I can even try to do. Well walking to the locker one day, I heard this kid was teling people how much strogner he is then me, ect, ect. (kid benches 110 at 190 with a spot, doesn’t do legs, maxes 225 with the shittiest most dangerous deadlift ever). I see him walking straight at me. I don’t move, kid takes a shoulder and hits a wall (didn’t even push him). Kid looks at the ground, appologizes and keeps going. My friends were laughing so hard.It seems assholeish and he got the nicknames after this event took place because of how he lacks any type of strength.[/quote]
I don’t believe in being a bully, but a little I didn’t see you oops sorry is all it takes. it’s just good of them. It prevents an actual asshole from cleaning their clock for real.
Here’s another good one. I was about 140 pounds when I was 19. I was powerlifting at the time and it did a lot for both my strength and speed. Believe it or not,while I was close to the smallest guy in our pickup tackle games, I was also the fastest and strongest guy there. Most guys were 18-25 or so. There was one fellow who was 16 that showed up. He was pretty quick and was hurting us for a little.
He was every all pro NFL receiver, shooting his mouth off, trash talking, etc. Our team captain told me to handle it. I covered him on the next play. I played about 9 yards back respecting his awesome speed and ability. He ran about 3 yards from the line stopped and waved for the ball. The QB of course, threw the ball to him and I took off. I hit him a split second after he caught it. The kid did hold on which was impressive.
It took him a few minutes to get up and he kind of staggered back to the huddle. His own teammates were practically pissing themselves laughing at this. I think they asked him if it was worth it for 3 yards.
After that he was just a kid playing ball. I don’t think he said a word and tried his best. I think he sort of had a few drops afte rthat, hahaha!
