Scariest thing that's happened to you?
 

Met this girl she was succubus.

Was in a bank robbery where a customer was shot.

One time, I using the bathroom, and there was a roach on the roll of toilet paper.

When I was a teenager, I was walking down the street when this man in a car grabbed me, & tried to force me into his car. I kicked & screamed bloody murder & I got away from him. I still have problems with my knee, because I hit it so hard on his car while I was kicking. I broke glass with it.

This lady helped me, but I never got to thank her. I was hysterical & freaking out. My former friend Julie told me that he probably thought I was one of the "working girls".

As if that excused it. My former best friend screamed at me that I probably had too much makeup on, & I didn't have any on. I just had on a sweater & jeans at the time. I screamed back that I could have been naked, & painted up like a Vegas showgirl, that still doesn't give anyone the right to do that to someone else.

I get paranoid in parking lots to this day, & I always carry my pepper spray in my hand when I'm out anywhere. I have a gun now & taser too. So it's never a good idea to sneak up on me when you catch me out & about.

Not uncommon in the bayou.

Now how did that happen. Usually the clerks just fork over the money.

Which would you reach for first, pepper spray, taser, or gun?

He was most likely a rapist, so good for you. And screw your friend.

Well, I was making a money order for a customer at the time, so he didn't get my till but I guess he was nervous and the gun went off and hit the floor and pellets ricocheted and caught my customer and shot his ear almost off. Pretty damn bloody and the poor fellow went into shock.

That makes me sick,having a daughter AND a granddaughter, sorry you had to go through that. I carry a fairly respectable knife at all times.

Thank you Angra, she is no longer my friend because she was a total Regina George.

And thank you too Bloofer. ::embarrassment:: I carry a knife too, it's a deer hunting knife my grandfather gave to me.

I always thought I'd pepper spray, then I'd taser for good measure. I wouldn't want to shoot anyone unless I absolutely had no other option. I used to be very afraid of guns, until I was given one & taught how to use it. You're not afraid of anything anymore when you're holding a gun.

I think that was disgusting of your friend, saying such a thing like that.
(((((Hug))))) for you.

Holy crap! The dude who got shot - I hope he recovered.

I was thinking of that old, "Oh, that was you?" joke... but I was afraid you'd hate my guts.

Mine was probably fish-tailing wildly on ice covered road at 60mph on two-lane highway while I was driving next to full 18 wheeler semi-truck. I thought I was a deadman. After I gained control and slowed behind him, I realized the adrenaline-plus my body produced made me very high. That was the last time I made a "gutsy driving move" to make up time.

But it made you high, man!!?

Mine is probably from driving too. Actually a week or so ago on my way home from work I did something most horror fans PROBABLY wouldn't do. I picked up hitchhikers. Had my bro not been with me I don't know if I would have, but I can't stand seeing someone in distress when I can easily help.

It was a young couple who seemed more interested in getting high than stabbing me through my seat. So I risked it. While we were waiting for them to get a couple things to take them to a nearby hotel, bro and I were standing nearby waiting. I looked at him and asked, "You don't think they look like serial killers do you?" His eyes got big and he was just, "Well thanks now you have me paranoid!"

The ride went fine though. We made small talk and I even told them I had a shit job that barely made up for gas money so might as well try to rob someone else if they were criminals. They laughed and said something about a $200 stick they had with them. If anything I guess I could have robbed THEM.

We dropped them off and finally headed home at 5am. I could tell my bro was much relieved and we talked about our 'near death experience'. I fucked with him again and said, "well, they could have left a bomb behind in the back seat''.

He just replied, "I really fucking hate you." ::big grin::

Now THAT'S someone who deserves to loose an ear and go into shock. ::sad::

Yes, he was fine. He was a photographer by trade and actually gave me a framed picture to thank me for doing first aid and consoling him til paramedics got there.

as for the driving maneuvers and picking up hitchhikers...you're all grounded!

Awwww, but, moooom! ::big grin::

Looking at myself in the mirror in the morning without my makeup!

The makeup really helps this old broad!

Been ruminatin' on this one some.....thinkin' on the index moments in my life that were bracketed with fear......

Dang Roiffalo! Sounds like you picked up some hippies thumbin' around....$200 stick? Wasn't Thai Stick was it? ::big grin::

I used ta hitchhike alot up and down the north coast of Oregon...
One time I was walkin' across this big long high bridge in the dead of night and had some cops roll up on me.... gumballs goin', guns pointin' at me, yellin' at me put yer hands up. That was pretty scary I tell ya what....

LOL! Oh, yes it did. Big time. My body was just moriphin' my body up for a lot of serious injuries. But, not exactly a highly repeatable way to get high. ::big grin::

::big grin::::big grin::::big grin::::love::

I believe in the heat of the adrenaline-filled moment of an attack you would pull the gun.

Regina George... Lol.

They say on average you walk by 11 unapprehend murderers in your life span... So just walking down the street is pretty scary.

I think the scariest thing that happened to me was probably the time a stick went through my upper lip.
Well then there was the time some speed demon in a mustang nearly made a pancake of me on the road.

In all seriousness. My scariest moment was when I was out shooting. I used to shoot at my grandfathers house all the time starting when I was around 8. When I has 16 I was shooting his Sig. We used to shoot at targets stacked around his wood pile. I fired a shot at a pumpkin and the bullet went through and caught the head of a nail on the other side of the pumpkin and ricocheted back. It slowed enough that I could actually see it coming back at me, but it was still way to fast for me to react. It hit the bone around my eye socket just to the right of my eye, maybe 1/4 of an inch. It lodged in there and my grandpa had to pry it out with a knife. I look back and think about how close I was to losing my eye and I get shivers.

Yikes! What's the chances

Ridiculously small. I still have the dent in the bone where it lodged. It wasn't the whole slug, it must have broken apart when it hit. Regardless, scared the hell out of me. At the time I didn't think about it, but its exactly what A Christmas Story said would happen...

Let you know next time.

How did a stick go through your lip??!

Well, this was an incident of acting before thinking. I was breaking some branches off a tree. I don't no how this tree's name is spelled because it is not in the dictionary but they grow everywhere. This kind of tree is very flexible. I was bending one of the tree's branches forward and then it broke and snapped back at my face, and knocked me of my feet. I got up and started rubbing my bottom lip because it hurt like hell then I felt something warm and wet. It was my blood. Apparently the tree branch had impaled my lip when it snapped back at my face. You wont believe how much blood can flow from a lip.

You poor sap!

It's been kind of horrible reading all this stuff that has happened to you guys. I like you all, so I don't like the thought of you goofs in harmful or scary spots.

You and your damn puns! ::big grin::

Well where's the fun in life when you can't read about other people's horrible experiences.

::big grin::Hahaha!! Funny, but not my style, my friend.

I am a terrible comedian. BLEAH!

Today I was driving down the road and my tire blew out. I opened the trunk. No spare. It really wasn't as scary as it was extremely inconvenient. What WAS scary is how badly I got sunburned standing on the side of the road for two and a half hours waiting for a tow truck. Now I hate the world.

Stayed at this very nice hotel in NYC a few months after 9/11, the Millennium Hilton. It directly overlooks and was damaged during the terrorist attacks.

Mine was a room several stories up directly facing ground zero. Now, maybe this is all autosuggestion on my part, but the night I stayed there I had a very lucid nightmare that people were pressing themselves against my windows, and other fucked up shit. I woke up repeatedly to wailing and loud thumping sounds on my window that sounded like it was outside. The whole time I was in the room I felt I was being watched, again from outside the hotel room. A quite unnerving stay, and I heard from the hotel staff that several guests have experienced the same thing! ::EEK!::
