YSaC, Vol. 1446: Kiss With A Fist

2013 February 11

I punched u in the back – m4w – 26


I though u were my ex girlfriend and u were standing with ur back to me with another guy. It made me mad to see you with some1, afterwards u yelped and he turned around and I ran I knew it wasn’t her. Im sorry.

Let’s say, hypothetically speaking, that you were the sort of person who would punch your ex girlfriend if you saw her with another guy.

You’re an ass.

OK, with that obvious point out of the way, here’s a quick question – if this girl was with a boyfriend, what are the odds she’s regularly reading “m4w” posts in the “missed connections” section of Craigslist?

Yep – you’re also an idiot.

Also, you can’t spell. Or use punctuation. So for your ex-girlfriend’s sake, I certainly hope your general ineptitude at everything also includes your “punching things” skills.

Jerk.

Thanks for the post, Natalie!

        I too am sorry, sorry that our society has no mechanism that would teach Sparky that battery is not an appropriate response to failed relationships. That, when that mechanism fails, such folk are found specialized housing amongst others with similarly poor control of their aggressions.

        But, I’ve been having a less-good Monday for about 8-9 hours so far, some of which is related to [profanity] engaged in battery as a form of communication. I may be feeling less-charitable than normal.

    In the spirit of “Valentine’s Season,” I think it will look much prettier and read much better set up as poetry.

    Sparky learned this behavior when he was very young, when his dad would take him places and punch random women who, when seen from the back, looked like the wife who had divorced him and left him to raise Sparky on his own. Tragically, Sparky’s dad learned this from his own father as well. Sparky comes from a long line of ex-lover-look-alike-from-behind-punchers.

    Yelped is such a curious turn of phrase here.

      I found “yelped” to be a strange word to use, also. I would have used “screamed obscenities and pepper-sprayed me”.

        Perhaps this is an experiential portmanteau, where “yelp” refers to being beaten with a paper copy of the Yellow Pages.
        This, rather than the sense of giving bad reviews online via yp/yelp.

    Must be a new trend former friend of mine did the same last week, his ex showed up to the arranged spot to pick up their daughter, she showed up with a new bloke former friend got really annoyed and hit his ex. To sum it up one broken jaw, one arrest and former friend could lose his visiting rights for daughter.

    Now now, there’s no need to be harsh. For all we know, Sparky’s age might have been a typo; he might really be a six-year-old boy who just wanted to tell his ex-girlfriend that he still like-likes her, even if not quite enough to pull on her pigtails during math class. I mean, that would certainly explain the spelling.
