You'd be feeling a lot worse if you had hesitated and the kid got run over.ផោមក្លិនស្អុយ wrote:About 2 or 3 weeks ago I was at the riverside and walking along minding my own business.
A foreign couple, tourists I think, with 2 kids were there and they were pre-occupied with putting a sunhat or something on the smaller kid. The older one took off running after a bird towards the road.
I was at the edge of the pavement so I shouted at the kid, ran a couple of steps forward and caught him and swung him around.
The kid was shocked and started to cry. I got down on one knee and started to talk to him.
The mum came running across, snatched the kid away and said something aggressive to me which I didn’t catch but i caught the sentiment. She was angry that I was talking to her kid.
The dad came across just after and apologised and thanked me.
Mum was probably in shock as to what had almost happened - but her default reaction was to be suspicious and rude to me.
I found it interesting and sad.
Just another day for me - unintentionally pissing people of.

So the K440 detective squad has now extrapolated from the original information that we are not only dealing with a hippy, but said hippy is also a lesbian, feminist, NGO, Christian, backpacker.
And you missed a free pass (Srok Khmer rule book) for a quick pimp slap? Joking aside, I would never hit a woman (unless in defense), but I have to say that I find the idea of watching the realization that her female force-field doesn't work here fascinating. It would be like Superman experiencing kryptonite for the first time.
I love the Bill Burr skit about it being healthy to get blasted in the face by a stranger from time to time as it really makes you reevaluate your behaviour and life choices. Nine times out of ten, it's happened because you were being a dick or had deluded yourself into believing the law of the jungle doesn't apply to you, you then make corrections accordingly.

Exactly right. And as a parent the thing I find most distressing is seeing a parent laying into their child, even if only verbally. Some parents are hypocritical on this topic.slavedog wrote:It's important that kids get discipline (non-physical) from adults who are not their parents and teachers - it's perfectly natural and a shame that many people in the west are now too scared to do it.
On occasions my son was reprimanded by a stranger. I was annoyed at the time but as no hand was laid on him (and the stranger had a point) I had enough sense to see that I should keep my mouth shut. In the West it used to be part of the culture that strangers could admonish (verbally) children who misbehaved. Also very common in the Caribbean, even today.
Admonishing a stranger's child is maybe acceptable, depending, but a smack on the hand is not. If you go around smacking peoples' children, then expect a poke in the eye. In over-the-top pc countries, you're not even allowed to smack your own child.

WTF! A barely literate bogun from Brisbane who allegedly, hypothetically allows his 11 year old child to call the woman a "cunt" wouldn't launch his K440 posting career with an embellished post that also manages to incorporate many of the stereotypes of western women in SEA, would he?Edwardo wrote:My guess would be there was no actual "hand smack" involved at all. That is not typical human behavior to violently discipline some stranger's child, and surely not from some fat-arsed tourist "hippy" chick. More likely, some wannabe do-gooder saw a child littering and angrily picked up the litter and told the child "NO" in a loud voice, which caught the kid off guard and rightfully caused public embarrassment. Either the child exaggerated the smacking bit to her father or the OP did here.

Pretty exciting start to the year. I was just watching No Joke Howard on YouTube saying that everything and everyone on 440 was bullshit. What do people remember about this guy?
His penchant for all things gay as fuck ?

Gay men are attracted to men and men's bodies, hence the word homosexual. He's more likely to be homophobic, which is why he likes dick attached to a "lady."ricecakes wrote:His penchant for all things gay as fuck ?
If someone touched my kid, anyone, they would be paying a hefty price for a very long time. Men and women, both!
Please don't tell my momma I work in a oil patch. She think's I'm a piano player in a ho house.
