  • becomes an unskippable cutscene

    I think I hate injustice. You know, a few months ago a lady kicked my dog because she thought he attacked her daughter – he didn’t. What happened was that my dog collided with the mother’s leg while playing with another dog (who dodged mine) in a public park (full of unleashed dogs running around, owners present). As a result, the mother’s leg pushed her daughter, and the mother’s immediate reaction was to kick my dog. I mean, I kinda want to understand, but I don’t, I really don’t. Anyways, I quickly confronted the mother face to face – who was distracted and missed what really happened, while I saw everything – and my peripheral vision went black and her face became blurry. I think I repeated the same phrase, “Why did you kick my dog?”, at least a dozen times while completely zoned out, full automaton style, for 10-15 seconds. I had never experienced anything like that before. I remember the woman whispered to me with a smile, “Hit me, come on, hit me if you’re so tough”. The fun part is that I’m quite muscular, so instead of empathizing with me and my dog, others threatened to call the police (what?) and wanted me to leave the place – a public space. I tried to explain that I wouldn’t harm her or anyone around (I’m generally a super chill person), I just wanted an explanation of why she acted violently when it was clear it was an accident, nobody was hurt, her daughter didn’t even move half a meter and remained unharmed. But in the end I decided to leave the place, still filled with anger, because nobody was willing to listen and everyone was looking at me like I was a caged animal about to snap. That shit ruined my week.
