would you not walk up to them with 6 of your mates and see how hard they are then?

Just accept the abuse and hope they get tired of humiliating him then ?

yeah, 6 dudes messing with one guy....... they'll sh*t themselves if you stare at them!

It's worth a try. A lot of these 'gangs' back each other up with talk but when confronted you see what they're really made of. Me and my mate were being hassled by five travelling lads one day, we just ignored them and kept walking. Then one got brave and threw a punch at my friend. My mate got him on the ground and hammered the sh*t out of him. His mates scattered! Never seen such a display of cowardice in my life.

Awh man I'm in my early 20's I use to worry about kids shouting at me but I don't care now, bit worried someone is going to rob me, I just look like a bit of a weirdo and I'm always on my own.

Was out in Dundrum the other week just dyed my hair Violet, love it. Some jung one says "nice hair" and they laugh I spin round on my heal start striding up towards them was about to shout OR YA GONNA SAY THAT TO MY FACE OR KEEP WALKIN

But then I realised they are basically children and I am better than that.

But I do find it hard to see the fine line between standing up for yourself and looking for trouble. I would tell someone to fúck off or throw them a dig if they were constantly giving me hassle they might stay away or get their cousins after you, tricky situation.

So maybe the best thing you can do is really act like you don't care. What are they saying? or what do they think you're insecure about, do you know any of their names?
They're just looking for a laugh and they're getting what they want from you as they've keep doing it, sorry you have to put up with this I would struggle to know what to do as well.

Alter-Ego · 13-11-2011 08:17PM

Don't reply, just smile, laugh and shake your head a bit. The smile and shake that signals that you know that they're scrotes and that you find it amusing that they haven't come to that realisation themselves.

Unless your ginger, if you're ginger then this sh1t is going to happen to you all your life.

So what, walk around like a victim?
It's a sad fact you got to stand up for yourself at times, and if you get a few slaps then you get a few slaps. Happens most lads at some stage

You don't live in the real world my friend.

if he went into a group of lads looking for a fight he'd end up "the victim". The OP isn't a 10 year old, he's a grown man talking about other men trying to intimidate him.

If he tries to fight them then he better PRAY that these lads are hard men. That these lads are the types of lads who will stand and fight.

Because if they're not they'll be the type of lads who will carry a blade and win that way!

Honestly, where are all you goons from?

I guarentee if i was standing with 5 of my buddies and you came over staring at us and trying to show us how you're hard we'd be more than happy to f*ck with you!

I'm sure I could find one of them isolated one day if I tried hard enough, but like I said, I'd feel like scum for battering someone. And maybe person x or y might get revenge on me x10 when he's with his little gang again.

So basically all I can do is hope they grow up? Can't see any other viable alternative tbh.

Read post number 13 again.

Godot, ignore them. They're being idiots. In a couple of years they'll cringe every time they see you because they'll remember what gobsh*tes they were.

I'm sure it gives them a great laugh when the kick a little pebble at you and makes them feel dead hard and all, but yeah, they're just idiots.

Dude, if you find one of them isolated one day and beat the sh*t out of him, you'll end up on the wrong side of a 6 on 1 beat down!

The other posters are just engaging in typical internet warriordom! Acting like they're hard and they'd beat up 6 guys when honestly they're just living out silly fantasies!

Maybe slowly but surely it is catching on that this tired, hackneyed meme really isn't all that funny anymore. In every thread.

Edit: nope, nope. It's still there, hanging around like a stale smell.

If you dont want to get hassled do something about it. Its as simple as that. You can listen to MrStuffins and accept that your a victim and you'll always be a victim as you are incapable of taking a stand or you can man the fcuk up and deal with your problem.

John Doe1 · 13-11-2011 08:21PM

If i was you I would ignore it and bask in the fact you are not them and will not live a life of the dole, future alcoholism and ignorance

And don't worry about me my good friend, I do live in the real world and have been all over it

All you have suggested is that he doesn't go near the lads because he'll get battered. Your solution is to take abuse day after day

Where are all the real men gone?

Always be the victim?

No he won't! because he won't have to put up with sh*t like this for much longer, he's almost in his 20s for God sake. This stuff stops happening when people grow up you know.

Are you 15?

pragmatic1 · 13-11-2011 08:25PM

OP they just sound like a bunch of simple tits. If they start getting serious with you nip it in the bud fast though. Get a few mates or family and give em a hiding.

Your advice is to walk away from the problem instead of addressing it. Great way to go through life...

He's an adult and he's being bullied by other adults while walking down the street. 19/20/30 its all adulthood. If he cant stop someone hasslin him now how will he do it next year if someone decides to fill their time by tormenting him.

This isnt the school yard any more and you cant go running to the principle, he has to man up and sort his own problems.

Or according to you keep his head down and hope it all goes away. Are you 12 ?

Nonsense of the highest order! If these guys wanted to punch, knife or glass him they would have done it. They're the textbook definition of mob culture. All slapping each others backs for the best insult.

Personally I'd have no problem nipping this issue in the bud whether it brought the hiding on quicker or more possibly show them up for what they really are. A collective group of self elevating cowards.

Personal abuse is against the charter by the way.

Nope, my solution is not to rise to these guys who are obviously looking for trouble. Your suggestion is he act like Bruce Lee and take on 6 guys in the hope they'll see he can swing a dig (by the way, we have no idea if this guy has ever been in a fight before in his life) and run away.
Your suggestion is retarded at best.

Where are all the real men gone?

REAL men? lol!

A real man will never have to use his fists in his entire life. Fighting has no bearing on whether you're a "real" man or not. You're showing yourself up here!

languagenerd · 13-11-2011 08:28PM

+1 to the not-fighting-them side.

Don't start a fight with them, they're clearly just idiots who think they're hilarious. Think of how ridiculous they actually are: "Hahaha we said hi to him! And threw pebbles in his direction!". They probably have nothing better to do, just ignore them or laugh at them. They'll get bored soon enough.

Addressing it? Addressing it is to fight the guys? Are you for real?

Sometimes walking away is the smart thing to do. Stop acting like you're some sort of hard man it's embarrassing!

AnonoBoy · 13-11-2011 08:31PM

The best revenge is to live a good life.

Or else just laugh at them and ask them how their Mas are.

No it doesn't make you a real man, but if you honestly believe that a person can make it through life without ever having to resort to physicality then you're either seriously deluded or you were raised wrapped in cotton wool.

Wow! Right, so you think a 19 year old is the same as a 30 year old.

Incredible!

Yeah you're right, he should man up and fight 6 guys at one! Nice advice there Van Damme!

Or according to you keep his head down and hope it all goes away. Are you 12 ?

No, i'm 27. I'm an adult man who sorts out his problems not by using his fists but by being a reasonable adult and knowing when it's a good idea to sort out a problem like an adult (a lot) and when it's a good idea to take on 6 guys at once (never).

Where did I say he should fight them? I said he should address them and ask them what there problem is, if he gets slaps then he gets slaps. Thats life
Might earn himself some respect though

Not a hard man at all, just dont get pushed around. Thats not being a hard man, that's being a self respecting man

And your being very condescending, acting a bit hard yourself

And you're right about walking away being the right thing to do at times. But this fella has a problem, day ater day. Needs to be addressed. This is ABC stuff
