Bastard's greedy best I watch this click, I'm done, goodbye

back to Michael.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
All Right, guys, so I'm trying to be healthy. I'm
going to the gym. So I'm on a street, okay,
this street.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
What do you do at the gym?
Speaker 1 (00:51):
A little? Mainly cardio stuff because I have to keep
my blood sugar down.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Which which cardio?
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Recumbent bikes to treadmill anything running, basically is what it
comes down to.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
So you shake it up a little bit.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
You an elliptical man, Yeah, I've done that. I've done it.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
I've got to get back on the elliptical. It's a
nice full body way.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
I've recently become a regular on the stair master or
whatever you call that thing. What's what's the point in that,
I'm climbing stairs, a never ending stairs. Build your glutes,
am I. That's what I'm trying to do. That's why
I'm doing it. I want my glutes to be built.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
A lot of women do that exercise, it's all.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
It's often busy. I have to keep my hand at
the whole time on my gym. Wait till it opens up,
and then quick run over there and get on it.
Oh wow, back to you, Michael.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
So I'm on my way to the gym. I'm driving
like thirty miles an hour. The gym is on a
street where you can only go like thirty miles an hour,
and so I'm making a left turn to go into
the gym parking lot. I look, there's nobody coming at all.
And as I'm turning left, I'm going real slow, and
all of a sudden, I see this car coming at
me just as fast as they can, almost like they're
trying to hit me on purpose. And I don't know
(01:56):
whether it's the Lord or what. I gassed the car
and I got out the way. And so I go
and I park into my parking space in the gym,
and all of a sudden, this person follows me along
with another Yes, along with another car.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
What so, Oh, that's weird, very weird.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
And so the first one says ay in this drops
f bombs at me and goes, you need to learn
how to drive. Blah blah blah blah blah blah. Mind you.
This is a thirty mile an hour speed limit and
they're going like seventy miles an hour and they're coming
so they're coming right at me. And meanwhile, then another
person comes from the other side of the parking lot
(02:35):
and also confronts me and says, hey, I was a
witness about three cars back, and you need to learn
how to drive. What yes, and starts calling me a
piece of s and this and that and.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
I'm good good. There's no wreck here.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
There's no wreck here whatsoever. Nothing. We didn't touch cars,
we didn't do anything.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
Obviously, something weird's going on here. We're all just trying
to figure out what the weird thing is.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
Yeah, but this is, yeah, I mean a non collision
or somebody had to hit their brakes.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
I'm not going to follow somebody in.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
And say I saw it all right, Why would.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
You do this right.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Yeah, there's something afoot here.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
So I was afraid that these people are gonna rob me,
and they don't look like you know, this is a
high end area, so it's a fluent area, and they
don't look like they're from around here. I thought, okay,
something's not right here, and I kind of got out
of the car and I said, you know, I okay,
I'm sorry, you know, and just kind of walked away.
And they said, are you going to the gym? And
(03:29):
I just said, sir, you know, just leave me alone.
And it's funny because they kind of looked at me
and it was sort of like, I don't know if
I was getting ready to be robbed or if this
was an insurance scam that went poorly because she was
trying to hit me. So I'm trying to figure out.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
But well, okay, so that makes sense, like they're trying
to hit you, and then they have somebody who's there
for a witness and makes clams that aren't true.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
I don't know what they're trying to since.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
They didn't hit you. I think you got to abort
at that point and wait for the next poor victim
to come along, because I mean, you get nothing here.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
But so there was just a bunch of cursing at
you and insults, but no requests were made or demands
or anything like that.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
And this was a parking lot at night.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
Were they waiting for you to that? None of this
makes sense.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
If they're gonna rob your car, they wouldn't know. And
I stood out that. I kind of went away and
watched to make sure they didn't touch the car, and
they finally just drove away. So I'm still trying to
figure out what was this.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
This is bizarre.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
I think they had a slipping Jimmy sort of thing
going there if you ever watched better Call Saul where
they had a plan. But the fact that they followed
through on it, even after the lack of contact is weird.
Speaker 4 (04:37):
Of course, wave it off and go around the block
and wait for the next quarter of bastard to come along.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
A lot of criminals, as you point out regularly, are.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Stupid, right, Yeah, yeah, wow, I don't.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
That would have disturbed me though, when the second car
showed up and said, hey, I saw it all, saw
all what I mean, I would have been bothered at
that point, like, Okay, something bed's going on here.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Right right, right?
Speaker 4 (05:02):
So car number one, describe the humans? Uh you mentioned
as she? So one of them was a woman.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Old lady, older woman, not great looking. Well, what they
have been missing a few teeth?
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Okay? Now we have a dumpy.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Car claimed that. You know, it's a good thing I
didn't hit her because her sister's handicapped and she knows
police and she would have gone after it.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Whoa good thing you didn't hit me. My sister's handicapped
and I know the police, right, all right?
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Just the facts or just the fact.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
So we've got a one middle aged, toothless woman in
the first car.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Was that the only person in that car? Yeah? That
was it? All right? What about car number two?
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Car number two, he's uh got a dumpy white pickup truck,
bearded guy and like I said, he opens his window attractive?
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Is he?
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Ah?
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Not great? How would you describe the state of his
dental health?
Speaker 1 (06:03):
I think he has all his teeth.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
Okay, all right, so he is betoothed, all right.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
So one dude, one bearded, burly dude who offered to
be a witness, a witness.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
And I saw that nothing happened myself, officer. That's the
weirdest part.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Obviously.
Speaker 4 (06:23):
Yeah, that's that speaks to there's something really odd going on.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
I would I would have been a little worried to
especially since his night and now there's a guy involved.
I would have been a little worried, but I would
have wanted to say, you saw all, what what are
we talking about here?
Speaker 1 (06:38):
So I you know, like I said, I when the
gym met my wife and I said, I have no
idea what this was, what these people wanted. You know,
I'm just glad it wasn't hit.
Speaker 4 (06:48):
I'm a cynical man. I grew up in a large
metropolitan area. I've known plenty of cops. I've done bunches
of ride alongs with the police news every single day,
including the grim stuff. I can't figure this one out
unless car number Why did car number one pull into
(07:10):
the lot?
Speaker 2 (07:10):
If she'd missed you, If she's a slip in Jimmy.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Skin, she's dumb. They their plan was she hits people
on purpose, he says, I saw it all. They try
to extort cash out of you or something right exactly
at the crappy cars. Yeah, but these people, being dumb,
particularly the first one, went ahead with the plan even
though she missed. Is that's the only thing.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
I don't think this is true, but it's the only
thing that's popped into my head. They follow you into
the parking lot, having plan A fallen through. Plan B
is intimidate you and make you give them money. But
they saw that you were a reasonably fit mail and thought, no,
(07:56):
we just this is a this is an over We're
not going to get anything out of this one. Let's go,
you know, to the gym or the grocery store down
the street and try again. If you'd been a diminutive
woman or a really terrified old guy or something like that. Yeah,
maybe then they say, listen, I ought to beat your ass.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
You know.
Speaker 4 (08:14):
You give me fifty bucks, we'll forget about all this,
or you empty your wallet. Because I've been a victim
of a strong arm robbery. It was a very long
time ago. But I mean, it's not like they have
to have a rationale.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
True. Wait a second, this prevace doesn't work right.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Your entire approach, sir, is device logic. You know you're right.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
I'm sorry, that's that's a weird one.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
Michael.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Yeah, I mean it was scary, But then I'm trying
I'm thinking to myself. Yet at the same time, nothing happened.
You know, if they didn't when.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
You hit him with I'm not giving you money for
a logical fallacy.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Touche, sir touche, they would say.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
To you, Wow, good people theory cops, you've probably run
into this. What the hell is going on? Mail Bag
and Armstrong? You get is the email address mail Bag
at Armstrong and Yiddy doctor And maybe we.
