Got a week off from work, so I spent it at a friend's place. Here are a few of the highlights:
1. New friend that is former Army SF and lots of other things (grade A badass) told me that he once killed one (who also had a knife) of two dudes that jumped him and his brother at a gas station. Doctor that testified at his trial said it looked as though the guy had been hit in the head with a sledge hammer 3 times, when in fact my friend had only hit him with his fist. The guy went into a coma because of a blood clot. Dude didn't even let his brother fight. I'm now tempted to fight the dude.
Friend also told me he won multiple Toughman contests in the mid 90's. This guy is great and I'm glad I met him, though he does regret killing the dude and it does suck.
2. Turns out my other friend who was recently thrown in jail after passing out in his truck in a public place from mixing H and Xanax is the biggest douche alive. Not only did he get caught shoplifting during his stint in rehab (which was an attempt to avoid serious jail time for getting busted), in the recent past, he's done the following:
-Sold his gf (who he lived with) a bunch of empty tickets. -Robbed his friend of cash and drugs when said friend was passed out. -Owes his gf's family thousands -Owes literally every person he's done business with money -Speed Balled an older mutual friend, which almost killed him (Dude was found laid out on his face on the front porch. Happened last week) -Zeroed out all his friends' EBT cards in rehab and also owes them money -Has only paid rent on his house 2 or 3 times, leaving it up to his gf to cover it -Dude has some weird/serious issue with money. Aforementioned Army friend told me a story of how he tested him: They were hanging out one day at douche's house and douche was holding and trying to get other friend to buy. Other friend was good, but pulled a ten dollar bill out of his pocket in passing, then put it back in. Douche spent the rest of the day following other friend around - often staring at his pocket - trying to get him to come off the ten.
There's more, but I can't remember offhand. I knew this guy was a handful, but had no idea it was to this extent. TBH, I hope he gets some jail time so his gf can have some peace of mind and move on. Plus, if anyone ever deserved it, I think he does and I'm sick of him trying to hustle me. She finally told her family about his drug use - which recently escalated to needles - so if she goes back to him, she may get cut off financially. Douche is in jail under a $100k bond and ain't noooooobody getting him out this time. Not even his momma, who is afraid of him.
3. It really does seem that being a decent human in today's world is something of a rarity.
4. Spent countless hours trying out classical and acoustic bass guitars.
