    If I want something done, I’ll do it myself. Then casually asked him what kind of milage he gets on his car. Dude was spooked and left me alone lol.

    I mean this with all the compassion of a father/mother/friend/aunt/uncle/grandparent/priest/rabbi, but this is not something to gloat about my dude.

      when someone threatens my way of life for their own gain, it’s not just an attack on me but my family.

      if someone is willing to use fear as a tool they better be ready to have it used against themselves. I understand that, and I hope they learned the same that day.

      I work well with others and try my best to work with anyone, but I’ll be damned to sit back and allow someone to walk all over me.

        Thinly veiled threats of violence is proof you’re stuck in that cycle, is what I’m saying.

        I hope you find peace and clarity at some point and can let that be put down.

          Being able to stand your ground after decades of being backed into a corner by the person supposed to protect you… Yes that’s reason to gloat. For some of us, this is as “normal” as it’ll ever get. And it’s a fucking Victory with a capital V.
