Beer is wet

guy_awoke · 09-09-2007 5:27pm #1

So I'm standing there at this bar in Dublin, waiting to get served when this guy moves off from the bar and very quickly throws his pint all over me while he walks over to his significant other in the middle of the packed room. He acts like he didn't do it at first and is all apolegetic to this other guy when he comes back and see's that beer went all over the jacket on his seat too. For fear of my T***icles being ripped off, I act like it didn't happen and just got on with watching the gig. I'm posting this because it's happened me a few times in Dublin venues, on one occasion when I was playing in the actual band. Anyone else experiencing this phenomenon

No, i'd have nutted him.

He *threw* his pint all over you? Or he spilled it? Seems strange that he's throw it on you without being provoked...

Yep, that's the weird thing about it. Totally random and unexpected. I've heard that this was happening in England a lot lately, just a trend that will pass I guess. Anyways maybe i'll take a rain jacket next time :-)

Indeed, someone spilled a pint in my crotch one time. This was in England, oddly enough.

Ya should have punched him or somethin, if it was intentional. Even if you lose the fight you can be sure he won't ever try it again.

You're just lowering yourself to his level then, perhaps even a little lower...

You should've pissed into a pint glass and thrown that on him

There's no such thing as levels. There are just people, and some are dicks. Hit the ****er!

That's bs. I could just be standing up for myself. Honestly what would you do if someone intentionally threw a pint over you, just run away? Each to their own..

I guess your opinion of what makes a dick differs from mine.
Twatting someone for doing something like that = dick

Maybe he wanted a fight. Scumbags round my way used to send the smallest guy in their group out and piss someone off to start a fight, then they'd all run in and kick the **** out of the poor guy.

Don't care I'd do it anyway.. If more people stood up to those little pricks the city would be a safer place.

pretty-in-pink · 09-09-2007 7:56pm

If that happened to me, I'd call him on it.

Even if you didn't slap him, you should have ratted him up to the bouncers.

Rossibaby · 09-09-2007 8:30pm

tell the bouncers or otherwise crack the c*** one

This is why i drink long neck bottles!

GhostInTheRuins · 09-09-2007 10:32pm

I seriously doubt the guy deliberately threw his pint all over you. Everyone that has posted seem fairly hostile "Ya should have punched him or somethin" "i'd have nutted him" what the hell? The only time anything like that's happened to me was by complete accident. Perhaps give the guy the benefit of the doubt?

Maybe he was just excited to see his girlfriend and was gesturing with his arms and his pint got thrown on you? It seems unlikely that a randomer would throw a pint on you. kind of a waste of booze really. What's happened to me a couple of times is that drunk peple have looked at their watch while holding a wine glass in their hand. The wine then goes all over me.
