So while your described reaction is much more common, I agree, mine isn’t even an exaggeration but a personal experience:
I don’t know where you live but I told off a junkie on the bus for starting sing karaoke in a bus filled to the brim at 14.00.
He started instantly making literal death threats. My stop luckily came up. He followed me out of the car to fight me. I didn’t even notice it. Luckily I went inside to buy something. I was the counter when he came from behind me, pushed me, started going for a fight.
I told the clerk to call the police because I didn’t want to fight that scrawny junkie, because while he may not remember me I’ve drunk with him once. A former neighbour who had done 10 years for murder. Pretty okay dude, I only felt threatened once when someone stole 500g of meth from him and he thought I might have let someone into the storage rooms. I hadn’t.
Anyway, that’s who this guy used to be friend with.
So I don’t want take my chances in getting stuck with some rusty knife.
So yeah, that shit does happen. That’s just the most recent example, from a few weeks ago.
Go to any of the major cities and take the worst buslines for a day or two or just on the weekend.
