So his beer falls and I kick it away lol and I walk away he follows. Trying to be tough. I push him. He spits on me (1st straw). I let it go. He horks on me. I snap. He runs. I walk to his backpack cause I know he wants. He comes running tries to get and then he’s fighting for it. I’m laughing. He falls and gets it but He’s locking my leg won’t let me walk away so I black out. Punch him in the face stomp him 2 times then punch him again. He lets go. I walk away.

He does nothing to you, you kick his beer away?
He follows you, so you physically push him?
He runs away from you, so you go to take a homeless guys only possessions?
He tries to get his stuff back and you laugh at him?
He falls on the ground, so you punch him in the face, stomp him 2 times and punch him again?

Then you run to this board to brag about it to a bunch of 40+ year old dudes?
No need to tone down the story or justify it... you could have picked any point to walk away.

Exactly. I used to explain this to my kids all the time - luckily they managed to understand something Nick clearly can't, but two wrongs don't make a right.

He CHOSE to hollar at girls, you CHOSE your reaction to that
He CHOSE to spit at you, you CHOSE your reaction to that

At no point were you forced to trump his action with your reaction (nor was he, same rules apply to him here).

You also CHOSE to come here like some sort of internet-badass, which in and of itself is strange but that's a divergent topic

I choose to believe someone actually walked up to you at a box store and stole it out of your cart in front of you! :)

I got past the initial of having it in my cart, got to where I hit continue to verify my shipping address, the app and website screwed up, by the time they responded, it was sold out!
I was so pissed.
It should put a reserve on it for a minute at least while you have it in your cart.

Should be 1, no?

Multiplication before division.

No, left to right in order.

PEMDAS gives a false sense of order between M and D

Isn’t it the multiplication first because it’s tied to the parenthesis? Thought u worked from the parenthesis out?

Yeah, it's better to think of it as P E MD AS - where the pairs you just go left to right

ppl see the bracket and assume that the multiplication between them comes before the division when it doesnt.

6 / 2(1+2)
= 6 / 2 * 3
= 3 * 3
= 9
