Has your size/muscles ever prevented an altercation?

[bruce9241]

I think something weird happened this past week. Some dude wanted to cut infront of me in line. He stood next to me sort of infront of me, you know, like someone would if they're trying to cut. I was going to confront him, but decided to wait to see his actions. I noticed him sorta looking at me while he stood there. I'm not a big guy at all, I'm pretty short, but I have a pretty big back and shoulders. Long of the short of it is, when it was time to approach the counter he didn't make a move. I'm not 100% sure if he was trying to cut, but it is pretty weird to stand sorta next to someone infront of them when you should be standing in back of them when in a line situation.

Has this happened to you? Do you use your size to intimidate others or prevent physical altercations? Personally I hate fighting. It's retarded especially when you're an adult and can be charged. Proves nothing really.

I would have suplexed him just on general principle alone.

happens to me all the time at school, like you im a little short but back and shoulders are my best parts and it gives me the small wide look. other times people do the opposite because they think like pushin infront of me makes them look biggerbetter than me

Nope, no one is ever intimidated by me.

I'm sure size and muscle has caused far more altercations than it has prevented.

When I was a bouncer the reason I got most guys out of the bar was because I was smaller and wasn't threatening to them.

I see it like this. If you're a tall guy then being muscled up might get you into more fights. But when you're a short guy being muscled up might prevent fights. Nobody wants to fight a little guy and lose.

I was riding my bike on a gravel road and some asshole passed by slinging rocks and shit so I yelled out, "asshole ... slow the fuck down!"

Shortly afterwards a saw brake lights and some dude that looked like the Incredible Hulk get out and said, "are you talking to me?"

I said, "No, sir"
