    Something about sandwiches


    9 times out of 10, these threads are from people saying they didn't help, and the keyboard warriors on here start whingin' that they didn't help, calling them cowards etc.

    Now some bloke comes on to say he did help and all he's getting is abuse??

    Fair enough, I can understand that people that live outside of a certain area wouldn't know what a "loaf" is but come on, bad grammar does not mean he's lying about it!



    PS loaf=headbutt.

    If he can tackle a gun yielding man with a bike lock, I'm sure he can handle a bit of internet abuse

    A gun yielding man? Is that a man that stops when he sees a gun? I'd tackle him with a bike lock too.

    Id just like to share my experience with you for one second please.

    It happened at Annesley bridge today as it was raining heavily after coming back from the doctor. At traffic lights i heard beeping from a car parked on the foot path and didnt take noticed till i stopped at the lights. An old man mid 60's in the Centra van was struggling to under the submission of a 30 year old scumbag in a scarf and blue rainjacket.

    I quickly got off my precious bike and feared that it would get stolen by the scumbag because of the gun he had in his hand. I took off my lock which i keep locked around my waste(resiliant aul thing) and opened the van door. I started swinging for the man and shouting at the top of my voice for him to vacate the place which he did so after giving a few loafs to owner of the van.

    The gardas were called and the reg of the car was recaleld by the tenant of the house next door to the accident.

    Anyway question is was i right in stopping this crime? would anyone else have done the same thing? the lock is wrecked now but is still a reminder of what happen. shuld i keep an eye out over my shoulder in future? whatdo?

    I know it is a f*cking fantasy,never seen a cyclist stop at traffic lights yet!!

    One trick is to tell 'em stories that don't go anywhere - like the time I caught the ferry over to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for my shoe, so, I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. Give me five bees for a quarter, you'd say.

    Now where were we? Oh yeah: the important thing was I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time. They didn't have white onions because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones...

    Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

    What?

    Cause everyone knows a lock is a far more superior weapon than a pistol :rolleyes:

    I guess the guards must have been discussing the alleged pupil/student sex scandle too while this was happening?

    NICEEEEEEEE

    Look OP, if this is true you're a Hero.

    Problem is I think there's only a 0.1% chance there's any truth in the story.

    I feel for you OP...you were expecting to get a shítload of thanks for your post, weren't you?

    I'll let you in on a little secret around here - if your OP had have been written by a mod or a popular, well known poster, everyone would have been falling all over themselves to thank it. That's how it works around here unfortunately. I could link to examples, but you all know exactly what I'm talking about.

    Nice try. If OP's story had been written in any way coherently, it would have been taken far more seriously. As it is, it reads like the scribblings of a 9 year old making it significantly less believable.

    So what you're saying is you accidentally the whole thing?

    It shouldn't be noted the last time a crazy story like this was on AH (The car chase with the shootout) it turned out to be true.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,654 ✭✭✭cruiser178

    Or, it would've got lots of thanks if it were remotely true.

    Or sane.
