Nova teacher murdered

@Yakumo:

Yikes! Well, at least w/ the kid she'll be too busy to bust your balls.

@Parris:

While I agree w/ you that alcohol is a very overlooked drug, the flip side of it is the Japanese take on it. It's very easy to get in Japan (they don't card anyone... I get carded at 32 in the states for fuck's sake and I haven't looked 21 since I was 17). Japanese drink their asses off, pass out in the street, sleep in their own vomit, etc. etc., but it's socially acceptable. There's not a whole lot of wife beating going on, and almost zero bar-room brawls going on b/c of it. Drinking and driving is obviously a problem, but that isn't so attitude-driven. I say alcohol, just like every other drug, isn't necessarily bad. It just pushes what's already started.

 

When the missus stabbed me in the head with the car keys it was during our really bad period. I remember that day well. I'D punched a hole though the wall in anger (Cheap arse walls !!) then before I knew it she was bashing me on the head with the car key. It really did hurt but it wasn't until a minute later did I notice a wetness on my face. The shock when I saw it was blood coming from my head ! Anyway, that was a massive fight which resulted in me kicking her out for 4 months. If I'd never broken my wrist that time who knows if we ever would have gotten back together? Oh, and do you know what the fight was over? No? Neither do I ! I don't know if it's just women in general or Japanese ones pacifically, but they can cause an augment out of thin air ! F*ing amazing. Oh, and they have no idea how to shut up.

I think different nations have different attitudes towards drunkenness.

I ve seen girls here (not just British birds btw) go over-board being just tipsy. The 'going-wild' culture subsequent to drinking is quite fasionable these days here, amonst all age groups.

In contrast, in my country, GReece, they do drink, quite alot too sometimes, but rarely is their whole night's out purpose to get smashed - and even if they are, they start sobbing, dancing etc, u rarely get a crime (Although drunk accidents are always a major cause of road traffic accidents).

I believe that more education is needed on the topic of Alcohol, just like Tobacco. If they can limit smokers, they should also limit drinkers. Me and my family would be in far more danger on a Friday night out in Liverpool than in a restaurant, passively smoking.

 

how true is that! it's the main reason why i rarely argue with my wife, when it comes to any kind of disagreements. well sadly.

 

All birds are psychos. Japanese ones are just more stubborn on average. It's that whole "master of the house" mentality... they can't admit they're wrong.

 

I just want to add that I use to have this same issue with my chinese girlfriend. Durring our first two years there many times where she all of a sudden just gets pissy and then gets into a fight over me being unhappy because she got bitchy for no reason.

I wonder if it's a phase or something. Over the past year it's pretty much stoped and she has gotten alot better about it. If she starts to get pissy and noice I'm unhappy she stops and gives up.

Luckly for me the worse thats happen is a broken clock and a few cups (thrown at the tile floor twards me but not entirely at me).

 

I had my TV remote thrown at me ! Luckily she's a shit aim :lol: The last 9 months or so things have been good so let's hope they stay that way. Mind you, she still comes out with crap just to start an argument. I just walk out now if that happens because I know I'll lose it.

you sirs should show them who's boss I say, in a respectful manner. Are we men or mice?

 

There (with all due respect mate) speaks a man who has never been married. To whit I reply, good sodding luck when you are! We shall all be waiting & watching (first aid kit at the ready) for the moment the realisation that man is NO match for woman scorned or woman mid PMT kicks in!

 

:clap:

 

my god.. save me! O_O Sounds horrifying being married. I think I ll co-habit instead.. marriage is a legal contract i d like to avoid at all costs!

 

Marriage is great as long as you respect your wife and don't act like an arsehole. Of course, if you marry someone you should be sure they are the kind of person you can live with long term (and aren't the type to going into mental rages for nothing).

Avoid bunny boilers and gold diggers!

 

Oh, don't get me wrong! Most of the time my wife and I are blissfully happy. I would say the same goes for Yakumo (still digging bits of key out of his scalp) and anyone else. However, there are times when girlfriends, fiancees or wives can go a bit bonkers over the smallest thing.

You don't have to marry a bunny boiler to find that there is a point of no return in certain arguments. These arguements tend to occur when we males are least expecting them - they come out of the blue - h:

Having been married twice, I've got a bit of experience in this lol :thumbsup:

A minor bit of advice, but if your gf, f, or w is about to "Go Nuclear" do NOT under any circumstances pick up a console controller! That is a red rag to a bull. ;-)

 

I may not have gotten married yet...but I was smacked in the back of the head with my Dreamcast once by a (now ex) girlfriend. Good times >_<

 

I'm not married (doubt I will) but stories like these only confirm even more something I've always thought. There definitely needs to be some sort of international holiday in honor of whoever invented the prenuptial agreement.

 

Ouch! May we enquire why, or is that too painful a topic? Also, did the DC survive? They are pretty sturdy so I suspect yes.

 

The DC survived....was later thrown down the stairs by the same girl on the same day...and survived also.

Apparently, it was because I play videogames too much. In reality, it was because she stopped by my house rather drunk one evening and was looking to start a fight with me, it seems.

I still have the lump on my head too >_<

==Edit==

Apologies for the OT-ness. It is a very sad matter about the murder and I didn't mean to take away from that.

 

I've got a friend who's a Milwall supporter, and apparently they were one of the clubs who were well known for having violent fans back in the day. He's a pacifist anyway, so not involved, but the above is exactly what he says happens these days. They just got organised to beat the shit out of each other elsewhere. Absolutely fine by me, so long as no innocent bystanders get hurt those guys can beat each other to death as far as I'm concerned.

 

Is it the Scots, or the Paddies that hit back?

 

Amen to that.

Rule No. 0 - Never argue with women coz you WILL lose 150% of time...
