man approached my truck (story time) (srs)

[inkie77]

I drive an older f250 super duty and was on my lunch break. I was heading back to work and my gas indicator said i had 10 miles until empty. My truck died and sputtered out I was able to pull into a residential neighborhood and immediately called my oldest daughter (no pics). She was on her way to get me. I saw two fat old white dudes talking outside a couple houses down across the street immediately staring at me. One left and the other started walking towards my truck and i rolled down my window half way here's the interaction:

Him : "are you lost?"
me: "no"
Him "do you know someone in this neighborhood?"
me "no"

awkward stares

I finally broke the silence and said "i'm waiting on my daughter"

his response to this is

"how old is she?"
"is she sick or something?"

at this point i lost my **** and cussed him out and told him to mind his own fukn business , rolled up my window and said have a nice day. He walks to the back of my truck and stares at my tags. slowly walks back to his house and stands in the front yard.

I got diesel and went about my business

Would you have handled this differently?

[badbl00d]

Why didn't you just say I ran out of gas and I'm waiting on my daughter with the gas can?

[Doober4]

Are you lost

No I ran out of gas

[SirFapsAIot]

huge

Spoiler!

if true

[Xgamer791]

Should have rang his neck

[inkie77]

Why didn't you just say I ran out of gas and I'm waiting on my daughter with the gas can?

honestly? because i was in a **** mood. Also i dont think it's his business what i'm doing. nosey old fkr

Do you have aspbergers or something? Why didn't you just say you ran out of gas? Seems like a pretty reasonable thing to say instead of autistic 1 word answers. You sound like you don't have the social skills to interact with other human beans.

So, someone sees an old truck that they have never seen before just idling in a residential neighborhood, and decides to find out more, and you have problems with him being "nosy"? I wish I have more people like him living in my neighborhood. Sorry you were in a bad mood (probably because of your dumb ass not realizing you are low on gas), but a simple "I ran out of gas and waiting for my daughter" would have suffice.

[northernlights7]

I wouldn't have ran out fuel and had to park in a random neighborhood waiting on my kid to pick me up like a stiff.

lets say i see a truck in my neighborhood with a guy sitting in it on his phone and it's been there less than five minutes

would i approach and like a nosy old angus and say "hey do you know someone here?"

hell no i'd mind my own business. that's a good way to get shot.

[IH8RICE]

This feels like an aware thread...

Do you have anger issues? Why would someone asking why you are doing loitering in the neighborhood warrants getting shot? Do you know anything about the neighborhood? Did they have problems in the past where houses were broken in to?

Look, regardless of what you personally would do in this situation, the point of the whole discussion is that this encounter could very EASILY be resolved on your part by simply just telling the guy exactly what happened. But instead, because you are "in a bad mood" and the guy is "being nosy", you decided to be a jerk about it and then come whine on the misc expecting us to back you up on this immature behavior. You sure you a dad of 3 kids?

People do it every single day. Did you stop to think for a second that maybe he was providing a line of questioning to see how to further approach the situation? Maybe he was getting to "do you need some help?" and could have possibly helped you without your daughter having to go out of her way to bring you gas?

But then again, what can you expect from a grown ass man that runs out of gas?

[MattyMiscer]

How the fuk does a grown man allow himself to run out of fuel?

i mean yes it's all about approach he didn't approach me with a helpful mindset but instead starting asking me 50 questions.

i really dont care if anyone backs me up lol. was just asking how i handled it and what you would have done differently

[AltarOfPlagues]

in my neighborhood a kid had found a cat and was goin door to door lookin for the owner and some residents called the cops on him.

[Komisch]

Dirty old biker pulls into my neighborhood and sits there in his chitty truck? I have kids, damn right I'm asking him wtf he's doing there, and I won't be "standing there" or "looking at your tags" either. Though I wouldn't have asked like a snot if you're lost either... I'd ask if everything was ok. Just tell me you ran out of gas, easy. Otherwise, that's a good way to get shot.

You see some old fukk hanging around your oldest daughter neighborhood, and you tellin me you aren't going to ask what he's doing? Damn right you are.

I'd have just said I ran out of gas, and was waiting on someone who's on the way (no mention of who though, none of their business). Dude was out of line asking anything about your daughter.

[Jacobcapra]

Why didn't you just say I ran out of gas and I'm waiting on my daughter with the gas can?

Are you lost

No I ran out of gas

These, you handled that like an idiot. This reminds me of people who film public conflicts or encounters, and intentionally do not answer very simple questions simply to be ****s because they know they don't have to.

Saw one where a woman wouldn't let a guy into her building even though he lived there. She asked him like a million times if he lived there and he wouldn't answer her. Would've saved them both frustration to say 'yes bitch I live here, here are my keys'

honestly? because i was in a **** mood. Also i dont think it's his business what i'm doing. nosey old fkr

lmao, my point exactly. blows my mind that you're 38 and don't know how to handle this situation.

[darkninja67]

Are you lost

No I ran out of gas

This

Next time you roll your window down you might be staring at the business end of a gun dummy.

[thedarrenestes]

i really dont care if anyone backs me up lol. was just asking how i handled it and what you would have done differently

You would have been ripped out thru the driver's side window and your daughter would have followed the smattering of blood into my garage where we'd going over the finer points of how superior the Cummins is to the Powerstroke...

That's how I would have handled it differently if I had been one of the 2 old fat white dudes...

Also RIP injectors/pumps running it dry

[badbl00d]

exactly, it sounds the way a 20 year old would handle it.

That or surrounded by police cars.

[Jacobcapra]

Well, seems like you got your answer. You handled it extremely poorly, and anyone with a brain would just say they ran out of gas.

You seem like you would react the exact same way, if situations were reversed.

[SirBetalot]

Pretty much how id expect an inkie, lacking enough foresight to run out of gas, to handle the situation.

[NsaneOne]

They were probably drug dealers and got mad suspicious of you. Next time don't run outta gas moran

[wrassler45]

How do you drive a diesel powered truck and let it run out of fuel?? You cannot just start back up a diesel engine once it runs out of fuel, and anyone who does know would not let themselves run out of fuel....

[Hartski]

lets say i see a truck in my neighborhood with a guy sitting in it on his phone and it's been there less than five minutes

No, being a shady, confrontational azzhole in a strange neighborhood will get you shot. What kind of dumbass lets his fuel get that low?
