I almost had to brawl last night and knock some heads together. It happened during IM basketball.
Since our team routinely gets owned (even though we won a game this year), I take my joy in playing through other parts of the game than success. One such thing is calling for fouls often and saying random things. Like "Hey, that's 3-in-the-key!" or "Travelling! Up and down!"
So last night, someone on the other team set a screen so I was like "Hey, moving screen!" and then this jerkoff goes
"Moving screen!? Have you ever played basketball in your life!?"
This somewhat angered me, so, without hesitation, I hit him with a,
"Have you ever had your ass kicked in your life?"
He stared at me blankly for a few seconds, and I was waiting for him to say something about kicking my ass and then me having to pile drive him at mid-court. But, he obviously didn't want none so he went with some requisite pacifist smack like "What's with this guy? Have you got anger problems?" and stuff like that. The standard issue for someone not ready to go blow for blow with yours truly.
The whole situation, including my awesome antagonizing comeback reminded me alot of my wanting to
"make war" a couple years ago.
So anyway, we carried on with the game. I kept thinking of some insults I could use if he wanted to start something. I was going to call him "Flashdance" for wearing a headband, then I would comment on his pussified little tattoo.
But towards the end of the game I decided to try to defuse any hostilities, so I went to him and I was like "I was just joking around, that's how I joke." and he was like "Oh, good I thought you were one of those crazy guys, I was scared." So then we shook hands and it was all good.
I really didn't want to have charges pressed against me and go to jail for single-handedly killing a whole IM basketball team during a brawl. But it was good to get those hostile juices flowing again.
Addendum: This is apparently my
1,326th post. Thanks XangaTeam for telling me!
