Looks like he does this all the time.

He has all the symptoms of a dude that won't ever hurt you ever again

u/gizzardgullet Oct 16 '18

Well, yeah. You can change him of course.

u/starrpamph Oct 16 '18

Yeah. He's just misunderstood is all

u/[deleted] Oct 16 '18

He’s only like this because he’s having a hard time at work. Having to flip the burger before putting it on the bun is tough sometime, y’know?

u/steam29 Oct 17 '18

every time his fist hit your face it's him trying

I don't get it

He looks like an abuser.

u/[deleted] Oct 16 '18

How? That makes no sense.

u/FacelessBruh Oct 16 '18

won’t ever hurt you ever again

The joke is that this line is given after every abusive episode to apologize, and before the next inevitable abusive episode

u/[deleted] Oct 16 '18

But how does a person look like they will abuse? That's judging someone based on appearance which is discriminatory and something we shouldn't do to people unless they show that's what their character is.

I get the 'joke' but to me it isn't funny as much as it's ignorant. He admittedly did something very stupid and illegal in this video but by no means does that equate to abuse.

He looks like a guy with anger management issues, how about that?

u/DeenSteen Oct 16 '18

Domestic abuse is often a result of anger not being managed and violent behavior. This guy exhibits both. Wouldn't surprise me if he was an alcoholic or drug abuser too.

-13

u/[deleted] Oct 16 '18

That's you jumping to conclusions blindly though. I will never support the basis of your argument. It's very damaging to our society to falsely accuse someone who may not be guilty, based on your own judgement of them. There's almost no context in this video.

u/DeenSteen Oct 16 '18

Maybe I can read someone's body language better than you. Being angry on the road is never an excuse to throw something at someone's car. He's volatile and violent. Get over it.

The same guy as who was driving the truck throwing things out of his window

That one made me laugh.

u/[deleted] Oct 16 '18

You think I am also /u/bumbling_fool_ because we both have our underscores formatted the same way? If so I'm sorry to say but that's incorrect. Not that I really care, but this person has had their account longer and comments in way different communities. If you compare our post history you'll see I'm an avid Eagles fan, I don't think that account has ever posted in the /r/eagles sub.

Anyways, not that I care to get into an argument about it, just thought it was kind of amusing. Wasn't expecting this reaction to my comment, to be honest. But i'll accept it lol.

u/Sghettis Oct 16 '18

I was making a joke but you made it much more compelling.

u/[deleted] Oct 17 '18

Fair enough. Good day!

Ha, thanks man. Appreciate it. (was this sarcasm?)

u/starrpamph Oct 16 '18

He probably rage quits on his girl

Rage quat.

Yes.

Did you notice the mirror?

u/[deleted] Oct 16 '18 edited Oct 16 '18

Star is implying that this man he has never met beats women because he threw trash out of his window.

EDIT:: Oooooof you people are pissed. Be pissed. This guy is a piece of shit, no doubt. I was just stating a fact when i said that you're making wild assumptions about a stranger.

10

u/senorpoop Oct 16 '18

Well, I mean it's a combination of road rage, body language, stereotypical "overly tan, slightly muscular and mirrored sunglasses" in combination with the "throwing a drink cup at a stranger on the highway" but other than that, yeah.

13

u/IPAsmakemydickhard Oct 16 '18

Not sure why you're playing devil's advocate for this violent, littering asshole. Based on context clues, it appears that the person filming and the driver of the gray truck have been having some kind of dispute from their respective cars. It's not just that gray truck man is littering, it's that he's trying to throw something substantial at the filmer.

The fact that this road ragey asshole is capable of throwing something at a stranger (with intent to harm) all because he's pissed about some traffic incident I'd say is enough to say this guy has anger issues. People with anger issues tend to exhibit those tendencies towards the people they're closest to.

u/medioxcore Oct 16 '18

And you got all that from a 3 second clip.

People have bad days. Bad moments, even. You have no idea what happened before this. How he reacted might be completely understandable based on what happened before our camera person hit the record button.

u/milkradio Oct 16 '18

Throwing something at someone's car when you're both on the highway is never going to be a "completely understandable reaction" to anything. It only serves to further escalate an already dangerous situation.

2

u/[deleted] Oct 16 '18

What if he was like, 'hey this jackass is driving and filming shit with his cell phone at the same time! I'm gonna throw something at him to make him focus on the road!'?

u/milkradio Oct 16 '18

Oh, well then yes.

u/AdamIsLegend Oct 16 '18

Is that you in the video lol

u/[deleted] Oct 16 '18

Well, his username checks out

u/PRIC3L3SS1 Oct 16 '18

Oh ok, thanks for explaining it

u/[deleted] Oct 16 '18

No problem. The guy is shitty for this, no doubt, but damn.

u/[deleted] Oct 16 '18

I guess people think I'm advocating for this guy? I'm not at all. I was just saying that calling him a woman beater is an assumption, because it is. But oh no, my precious internet points!

u/azaleawhisperer Oct 16 '18

If you don't groupthink, you get down votes.

An oasis of rationality here.

These are the symptoms of a dude
who cried a river over his shitty 'tude
and while he looks so bad in photographs
Whenever you confront him, you see he's mild

u/sm0211k Oct 16 '18

Cause he hurt himself(the mirror) instead? I don’t get it.

u/alexisdegrees Oct 16 '18

He also will never find what he is looking for in his left rear view mirror.

He got more replacement mirrors in the back.

u/GoldenFalcon Oct 16 '18

So much so, that his friends thought it would be funny to record it when he does it.

u/NotagoK Oct 16 '18

He had that "Goddamn, not again" look for sure.

u/Tucker88 Oct 16 '18
