Last night on the bus, I encountered a "shover"- you know, one of those people who go through a crowded, standing-only bus like they're doing the breast stroke, usually because they feel the need to signal their impatience with others not getting out of the way fast enough. This particular Shover went by me, stepped on both of my feet, and then when I didn't get out of the way fast enough for his liking, pushed me back-first into a pole.

Needless to say, this hurt quite a bit. I continued on to class, because I was almost there, and I thought the hurt would subside after a bit; it didn't.

So after getting up this morning and trying to get moving, I am taking an extra Lyrica and going back to lie down. Hopefully extra nerve-deadening medication and a soft spot will help. I'm also hoping this is not an ER-worthy thing. I doubt it, but I always fear it.

Just thought you'd want to know.

That sucks.

My Brother and I were sheparding our (then) 86 year old Grandma through a crowd when one of those sorts was coming for us. Brian saw it, grabbed my arm in front Grandma and said "hold, Kid."

The bastard came at us with enough force that he literally bounced off of us. Grandma never knew what didn't hit her.

I hope you are well. Those folks really piss me off.

I really wish people didn't suck so much. I hope the meds and soft spot puts you back together.

Once I was shoved in an SF crowd, so I spit on the back of the person that did it... not very mature, but it was a nice release.


Hopefully the Universe will see the person who hurt you fall off a cliff into a lake of boiling lava, while he/she/it is hungry.

Hope you feel better quick!

Well, I did turn around and flip the guy off, which for me is pretty radical.

While the lake of boiling lava is hungry, or the asshole fratboy is hungry?

I think a lake of boiling lava is always hungry. I mean, there MUST have been a reason for all those virgin sacrifices...

But yes, I was referring to the peckishness of the asshole, because there's nothing less discomforting than falling toward a fiery death and then realizing you'd really like a slice of pizza.

What a dick! People like him are what violence was made for.

I hope you get better.
