The time for retribution was when it happened. You could have broken his bones at the time. That time has passed. If you aren't going to persue it legally through the courts, you are just going to have to suck it up and live with it. Take heart that someone will find him face down in a ditch one day. That kind of crap always comes back around.

Yep, just keep listening to Jim Croce and grinning.

I would still write the prosecutor. He's probaby bored if your cops don't arrest people.

I believe in the old sicilian proverb that "revenge is a dish best served cold"

I have (literally) waited 10 years to deliver some payback to someone.

And while I have bagged a fish and installed it under someone's seat
I find that bagging a potato with a tablespoon of water or a bagged
piece of chicken is actually more effective.

They rot far faster and more odoriferously if you bag then with some water.

as for brake fluid? Nope, that's actually destructive.
a quart of whole milk into their cowl is much more fun via it's "Delayed action"

Hahaha, yeah if I do anything its not going to be anytime soon, but yeah, I took pictures of my eye and all and then my shirt which is sorta covered in blood I just need to find the thing to upload pictures to my computer. I had a piece of medical tape holding the cut closed so it would heal quicker, im about to shower and it should come off, I will take more then when you can see the whole thing.

Theres quite a bit of blood in my eye too, just noticed that today......well someone at work did

someone (a party to my revenging myself on someone with which they also held a grudge) once told me that if he had to make a list of ten people he wouldn't want mad at him he'd simply write my name ten times.

you can imagine what I'd do if I became seriously annoyed with someone

I like things that are both subtle and devious.

Ever smell rotting chicken kept away from air
but kept moist?

It can't be described, only experienced.
and unexplainable...
you'd think fish is bad, but rotting fish isn't nearly as repulsive.

Smell rotting chicken once and you'd consider standing in for Liam Nieson if they ever need to refilm that scene in Rob Roy where he hides inside the rotting cow and you'd make "it smells fresh" jokes while you did it.

rotting potato? another one where unless you've smelled it...
It's the most fetid smell you will ever come across.

It's EASILY understandable why people in the irish potato famine couldn't force themselves to choke down rotting potatoes

IF you can gain access to the vehicle interior pouring whole milk into the carpet will make the car smell like gangrenous wound dressings every time the weather gets damp.
half a pint divided between the rear seat footwells will do the job.

it works even better if you add a couple teaspoons of sugar to the milk before pouring.

Milk is a gift that keeps on giving because of that reprise every time the air gets damp.
the smell will permeate every porous surface in the vehicle, the beauty is not that it smells but it smells to an annoying level
but not usually enough to make someone get rid of the car, which means that every time it comes back they get reminded that they annoyed someone... and they wonder who...

Im guessing this happened before your incident the other day?
Oh, as for your cut, Id use Bactine to keep it clean and butterfly stitches to hold it shut.

Yea, it happend before the incident lol...

I had it taped closed for the first day, then I took it off, wiped away some dried up blood, put neosporin all over it then taped it back up to keep it from opening up again....its healing pretty well


as for the black eye....its just...really really dark and im not sure theres anything i can do about that?
