Tonight, my parents and I went out to dinner. We were sitting in a booth in our local Mexican restaurant, had just ordered, and were chatting pleasantly when some guy walks past our booth from the bar area and straight out dumps a beer on my dad. And then just high-tailed it out the door. I don't mean the asshole tripped - no, he walked up to the booth, threw the beer at my dad, and then kept walking out of the restaurant without breaking stride.

It was the single most mindboggling thing I've ever witnessed.

After a stunned moment, my dad followed the guy out to the parking lot and yelled, "What the hell was that, asshole?", loudly enough that my mom followed him out to make sure things didn't escalate. (I should perhaps note that my dad almost never curses.) And the fucker just shrugged and left.

It's just baffling. Mostly because it was so random. I mean, most of the bullying or general fuckery I've seen in my life has had a reason behind it - a fucked up reason, obviously, but a reason. But no - this dumbass just wanted to throw beer at someone and my dad happened to be there.

What the hell is wrong with some people?
