He better not have any beef with him….

Good time to eat and run.

Don’t egg him on…

And maybe bring a doggie in a bag… preferably a large and loyal one….

Zhlubdik looks like he could eat shmerp’s whole meal in oneswallow — plate and all.

“And I prefer your coffee with more cream.”

Ez dut ingelesez hitz egiten. (That’s Basque). Or he could try ASL.

“Yes sir” the small guy says “and please bend over so I can insert it properly where it belongs.” “Dont worry, I have a small foot.”I noticed the small guy is smiling. I am like that. When I smile I am preparing to do something to folks they will not like.

Just lick both of them and ask him to choose?

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why we invented stand your ground laws.

However beware if he eats it and smiles at you.Best Marine story told to me by a good friend.In basic he was dying for a chew of tobacco. He was a long time country boy fresh in Marine Basic. He was not allowed to chew.He got brave and asked a Drill Sgt for a chew. The Drill Sgt spat out what he had in his mouth and offered it to the Recruit. He knew if he so much as winced he would get his butt kicked so bad. So he grabbed it and shoved it in his face yelling "Thank you Drill Sgt Sir and began to chew. The Drill Sgt smiled telling him “Come with me boy you are now the Squad Leader.”I know it is disgusting but remember there are folks out there just like that.I would not be put off. I have had worse in worse conditions. A little spit would just be flavor.

Sometimes you gotta a do what you gotta do.We men can be quite disgusting at times.
