If college counts, then yes. It was a really bad idea and I got in a lot of trouble afterward. A friend and I got into it with some guys walking home from the bars. I knocked one of them out. Not with a punch, I threw him into a van and he hit his head on the bumper. He was snoring immediately. The fight ended then. Everyone was pretty freaked out on account of how unnatural it sounded. Went back to our dorm and cops were there because some kid was passed out drunk in the middle of the hallway. The cops stopped us on our way to our room. One of the cops said as I walked by "Why don't you tell me about that guy you just knocked out?" I was really drunk and couldn't figure out how the eff he knew that so soon or that we were involved. In hindsight, I had on a white baseball cap and an orange polo. I was pretty muscle-bound at the time. My friend was wearing a maroon shirt and he is black and had cornrow braids at the time. The two of us together was a pretty easy apb descripto. Anyway, I got arrested and they charged me with felony aggravated battery. I had to do two weeks in county jail and 300 public service hours and two years of probation to get it dropped down to a misdemeanor conviction. I also had to pay several thousand dollars to the other guy's insurance because he had to get a CAT scan or MRI or something plus stitches and of course the ambulance ride. County jail was a very interesting experience (many stories and really not bad at all except for the food), but the whole situation took almost a year to resolve and it was very stressful with the felony hanging over my head. I would have gladly let them talk all sorts of crap on me and just walked away had I known what I was in store for. Being a badass is for dunces.

Important story, bread.

I would not risk my health, financial, or legal status to prove some point to a stranger talking crap.

getting in a fight as an adult is very embarrassing. if you get in one it should be for a very good reason

1. Have you gotten into a fist fight as an adult? No.
2. When was the last fight you saw in person? A long rough ridin' time ago. (probably 19-20 years) You got a problem with that?
3. Do you say terrible things to other people and don't expect any possible physical retribution? No, I really don't say terrible things to other people. You are a prick for asking.
4. If someone kicked your ass one-on-one would you call the cops on them? This would never happen, but if it did, I would call the cops and then say "haha" like the bully from Simpsons. (Not really. If I deserved it, I ain't calling the cops. I once took a punch for no reason from a coked up roid head in college and didn't call the cops.
5. Would you fight someone simply because of what they said about you or a loved one on the internet? That depends on what you are getting at. I'd question you to your face and then if you talked smack and came at me, I'd mush you.

Also, I think ERIII and are very similar in actual answers. I am a pretty big softy. I never once even participated in a real fight. I wasn't afraid to, I just never let things get to a point where a real fight was the next step. My older brothers always told me, "Never throw a punch. However, if you ever truly feel the need to throw a punch, then don't stop." They fought a lot when they were teens to early 20's, so when I hit middle teens, they had grown up a bit and seemed pretty wise, so I listened to what they said.

Also, an older cousin told we that I should go find the girls when a fight breaks out at a party; all of the dudes go watch the fight and the girls are all by themselves. I used this advice as well.

1. Have you gotten into a fist fight as an adult? Unfortunately yes. Friend of mine got too drunk at the reception of a destination wedding and it came to blows. I was defending myself. FWIW the groom, friends of us both agreed that I had no choice.
2. When was the last fight you saw in person? Can't remember.
3. Do you say terrible things to other people and don't expect any possible physical retribution? If you can't walk the walk, don't talk the talk.
4. If someone kicked your ass one-on-one would you call the cops on them? Depends on the situation. Not if I deserved it, yes if I was jumped/robbed etc.
5. Would you fight someone simply because of what they said about you or a loved one on the internet? If so has his ever happened on goEMAW.com? I'm trying to think of any situation that I would and am having a hard time coming up with one. Maybe if someone said something incredibly horrible in relation to my kids. I'm very protective/defensive when it comes to my two daughters.

1. Have you gotten into a fist fight as an adult? Define adult. The last fight I got into was in undergrad.
2. When was the last fight you saw in person? They tend to happen frequently in aggieville.
3. Do you say terrible things to other people and don't expect any possible physical retribution? That depends. I tend not to say terrible things to people in public, unless provoked.
4. If someone kicked your ass one-on-one would you call the cops on them? Again, it depends.
5. Would you fight someone simply because of what they said about you or a loved one on the internet? If so has his ever happened on goEMAW.com? there is very little someone could do on the internet to provoke me to try to start a physical fight.

There was a point in time where younger mh liked to get into fights. As metalhead grew up, he liked fighting less and less.

I agree, however at the time I was very drunk and seriously aggro that this group of randos would just start crap for no reason with me and my friend. I wasn't proving anything to them, I was cashing the check they wrote. They really didn't think anything would happen, which is the worst part about it. They deserved everything they got. We just got caught. Well, I got caught. My friend didn't hurt anybody. Still I lost in the end and wouldn't do it again. That doesn't mean I wouldn't really, really want to.

1. Have you gotten into a fist fight as an adult? No.
2. When was the last fight you saw in person? Last Friday, my friend's roommate drunkenly made out with my friend's gf. He wanted to punch him in the face, so we were chasing them around Aggieville. (I was too hammered to know what was going on exactly.) Other than that, it's been quite awhile since I've seen a real fight.
3. Do you say terrible things to other people and don't expect any possible physical retribution? No.
4. If someone kicked your ass one-on-one would you call the cops on them? Probs not, but I don't plan on getting into a fight.
5. Would you fight someone simply because of what they said about you or a loved one on the internet? If so has his ever happened on goEMAW.com? Absolutely not. Lots of you ganged up on me and for good reason. I don't take it personally. It's a message board I know I am getting what I deserve.

I saw it happen. My friend and his gf were making out near the food truck. Then the roommate went up and literally starting making out with both of them iirc.

Shamefully, most of my "almost fights" have come around oppossing fans at a K-State sporting event.

It got real two years ago when OU visited and my bro and I sat next to 4 d-bags from Oklahoma. I ended up carrying my bro away from the situation and we had security called on us for mocking them when we made the comback in the 1st half. They texted the hotline.

1. Have you gotten into a fist fight as an adult? Last fight was in 2004 I think, maybe 2003. Never again imo. Felt bad.
2. When was the last fight you saw in person? Disgusting display shared by Metalhead outside Bullchicks when an army tried to beat up a random old man for no reason.
3. Do you say terrible things to other people and don't expect any possible physical retribution? No.
4. If someone kicked your ass one-on-one would you call the cops on them? Never if it was a fight. Always is robbed, jumped, etc.
5. Would you fight someone simply because of what they said about you or a loved one on the internet? If so has his ever happened on goEMAW.com? No.

No. 2 begs a question. What do you do in that situation? I don't like to see people be wronged or abused, and I wanted to step in, regardless of the danger to me. Luckily, things didn't get too out of hand and the old man got in his car and drove off. The dude who was trying to beat on him was large and would have definitely kicked my ass.

I don't really remember this. I'm assuming this was while I was waiting on Seven to show up with his pup for dogPAK? If so, didn't we harass that group of idiots pretty hard for rough ridin' with the old man?

Before you freak, just hear me out on this. I tipped a wheelchair guy over twice on Sunday and I guarantee you anyone in my position would've done the same thing so just listen to this crap. The first time was honestly an accident, but I find out pretty quick that this d*ckhead had it coming. Me and my parents were minding our business at the Pizza Hut lunch buffet after church (more like nap time) just waiting for a fresh batch of dessert pizza. Anyway, so these moron workers finally get it sorted and bring out the goods after what feels like forever and I kind of start walk-jogging over there with my mouth still full of breadstick. I have my "game face" on and literally nothing can stop me from getting this 'ssert 'zza before everyone else there. Mom's yelling at me to slow down which is only making me hungrier and angrier and that's when it happened. Bozo wheels rolls up out of nowhere and I hip check him into next week. Now at this point I really do feel bad and I immediately start helping him up, but that's when he said it. Looks me dead in the eyes and spews this indescribable venom with such genuine malice and hatred. "My legs literally don't work and I could still walk circles around you, klutz balls." I'm shaking at this point. Like, I'm seconds away from dumping ranch all over this prick, but I think better of it. Decide to drop his ass right there on the spot with a flying two-footed dropkick to the shoulder. Landed it. Maybe my best ever. He's on the ground, clinging to consciousness by a thread, so I get down in his face and whisper "legs for days, big guy" and make a couple buffet boxes for the road. Just eating leftovers now and I found out yesterday that this punk grandpa actually goes to our church. Oops!

1. no. i punched a kid once in 4th grade, that is the extent of my non-rough house fighting.
2. grade school? i stay away from this kind of activity
3. i'm not a mean person, and also don't feel the need to show my manliness to anyone, so this has never come up. if i don't like a person i don't interact with them.
4. in the context you are talking about, no. if it was some sort of mugging or whatever, then yes.
5. no. words are words, and who gives a crap what other people say. doing this seems very childish.
