Me (13 years old at the time): Dad, Mom’s cheating on you. I saw her making out with this man.
Dad: Listen here, princess. The guy’s filthy rich, and when you have money, it’s normal to have a hot mistress like your mom.
Me: But aren’t you jealous?
Dad: laughs
I was flabbergasted, lmao.
I met a real life Aryan Brotherhood nazi one time. I was somewhere between 10 and 12 at the time. I have a whole post about it (it was in this community about if you’ve ever met a truly evil person) . But anyway, he preached a sermon to my friend and I about all the things you might expect. The best part was the 5 minute section on evil catholics (I was/am catholic). I sure as shit didn’t tell him I was or that I’m half Syrian.
Fuck, I had one as an apartment neighbor not too long ago.
He got evicted though.
But not after taking some power tools to the door and trying to … very poorly, either break or replace the lock.
Maintenance just said ‘fuck it’, drilled their own hole into the door, and frame, ran a steel chain with a padlock through it.
He’d try coming back at 2 am every other night for a week or two, just cussed and cried for an hour every time.
But yeah the few times I randomly encountered him in the hallway… basicslly imagine Lester from GTA V, but not crippled, in cargo shorts and a wifebeater, damn near every inch of his body covered in prison quality tier nazi / white supremacist / aryan brotherhood tattoos.
Not someone you want to run in to.
Absolutely.
A bad person for anyone to encounter, though I guess my encounter showcases a form of white privilege in that I’ve got as much melanin as mayonaise, and was raised in a fairly extreme right wing Christian religious hosuehold, so I’d ‘pass’ in a sense, and probably wouldn’t have to try too hard to not arouse such an idiot’s bigotry.
But, to balance that out, I guess I would also have to not be openly bi or have basically any political opinions around him.
Fortunately, turns out that even in the pretty red area I’m currently in, the main property manager and I are on good enough terms that I know one of her kids is heterononconformative, so, it could be worse.
Glad you managed to get away with just an ignorant sermon.
