imagine me in year 10
a fresh faced, innocent boy happily sprinting home so i could cram a few extra minutes of dota
then on the way, a car rapidly backs out, smashes into my leg, sending me sprawling across the driveway
it was weird
i didnt even feel it, i guess i was in shock
he sticks his head out of the window and goes "oh my gosh"
i say "im okay"
and then i sprinted home
but when i got home, my pants were ripped and my knee was bleeding like there was no tomorrow
my mum obviously went spastic, my dad was contemplating driving the car into his house
i seriously grew up with too much love
anyways the next day, i was walking on the same path back home and that guy is waiting for me
and he says
"are you okay"
and im like " yea but my parents want to talk to you later"
and hes like "yea thats fine, you shouldn't be running on the street like that"
and then i was like" well you shouldnt be backing out that fast"
and now this peter griffin, triple chin bobbling, lookalike had the nerve to say it was my fault
he didnt even say sorry, he didnt even admit he made a mistake, he took no responsibility
this motherchucker acted like me being hit by his car was my own fault
and what was worse, i couldn't do anything
i was a 15 year old kid and this guy was spewing out raps about how kids these days were behaving too dangerously
and then something magical happened
my mum was driving that street and she stopped cos she saw me
she got out and absolutely went blitz at him
now my mum isnt a very tall woman, shes not even 155 cm tall
but the sound she produced was enormous
she started saying shit like "people are allowed to run in residential areas, why do you think people jog"
"your an adult, you have the right to act responsibly, my son is only a kid"
blah blah
and after like 2 mins, he caved in and said he would pay damages and all this shizz and promptly sent me a letter outlining how sorry he was.
he also called the police because i assume he thought we would attempt to exaggerate the damages because we're asian
but he paid for my pants and thats that
all i have is an unsightly relic of the accident on my knee which would forever dash my hopes of being a calvin klien male model but more importantly remind me that people never ever take responsibility for anything even if they're in the wrong
People if given the chance would attempt to deviate from the problem and say random shit that is irrelevant but can lead to the situation being overlooked, they adopt this mentality that if one does not take responsibility for one's actions, one's actions were not wrong
and another thing, blood will always be thicker than water
only someone like my mum or my family would stand up for me to that extent
so be happy mum cos someones gonna visit you in the future... in THE NURSING HOME
BOOM.
HAHA I KID, I WONT SHIP YOU OFF TO A NURSING HOME, IM NOT WHITE
but that guy lives like 200 m away from me and i havent forgotten about him.
i guess i hold grudges
and on year 12 muck up day
im going to buy several packets of eggs and go to town on his house
that would teach him to prevent me from owning it up on DOTA oh so many moons ago
Kennnnnny~ did that really happen? Are u ok? Ur mum is wonderful!!!!
