mugged
I got mugged last night

image

Walking home these kids came up behind me and knocked me down. At least one had a pipe.
I pulled my knife and they ran off then I ran several blocks to get to a better lit street.

Just 90 seconds prior to this I turned down a cab ride because I like to walk at night, especially after I've been drinking.

It took forever to get stapled up at the hospital but thats the way it goes.

Let me know if you want to go to the gun range.
paul - 06/20/10 11:15
Hope you are doing better. That and a I agree with tiny. You have some rockin' facial hair going on.
tinypliny - 06/20/10 01:30
I know I said this before but aarrrgh, I am just SO irked that someone thinks that they are entitled to beat skulls in. You should form an anti-mugging gang and throw them all in juvie for a bit.

I'm so sorry this happened to you. It makes me so angry. This is surely going to affect you for a long time.
uncutsaniflush - 06/19/10 23:03
Wow! I hope you have a quick recovery.
tinypliny - 06/19/10 20:56
did you have any money with you? did they demand money before they hit you? The security people believe that if you give them what you have, they won't attack you. But I am doubtful about this strategy...
tinypliny - 06/19/10 20:52
Good lord! I am so sorry to hear that, kook!!!! Looks like you lost a ton of blood there! :(

There have been several muggings in Rochester recently. I frequently get security notices from the UofR public safety dept. The area around the music school is getting notorious for the most violent muggings till date. If you are female, you are pretty much guaranteed to be molested. And if you are a male, they apparently hit you on the head. :/ The area around the main River campus is not much better either. Rochester always had one of the highest crime rates earlier but its now spilling to the more affluent side of the river. I was talking to an Eastman student recently, who lives near Alexander and she was totally freaked out about going out alone anywhere.

Again, I am so sorry this happened. Did you get a good look at them? Did you make a police report? I hope you heal soon. Incidents like these make me so annoyed with humanity in general. :/

PS: btw, the beard and moustache look über-sexy. :-)

Yikes! as (e:metalpeter) said at least they didn't get anything.
metalpeter - 06/19/10 18:53
At Least they didn't get anything, that still sucks though. That reason is why I don't really like to go out and get fucked up. In my mind I'm sure there are people who can tell by how someone walks that they aren't 100% there. And if they can't tell that they are willing to take that chance if they see you leave an area where there are bars. I'm surprised they ran when they had a pipe. Hope you aren't hurt to bad and get better soon.
kookcity2000 - 06/19/10 17:59
it was a couple blocks from my apartment on a residential st. they didn't get anything.
paul - 06/19/10 17:48
Here in Buffalo or in Rochester? I hope you did not come to visit here and then get mugged. This is why I want a tazer. Get well soon.
terry - 06/19/10 17:46
whoa dude that is so shitty. Where were you when that happened? Did they actually take any shit?

non commercial!
I got two free tix to the Pavement/Broken Social Scene/etc show in Toronto tomorrow (Saturday the 18th.)

check it

take 2 for you & yer sweetie/hombre or take 1 and go with me.
EITHER WAY!

Nobody in Roch thats around this weekend has a passport so they are less usefull to me.
drew - 06/19/10 14:25
Pavement would be AWESOME, as would be hanging out with the kook. Sadly, I have a comedysportz show tonight.
vincent - 06/19/10 10:57
I would go with you, but I'm trying to get some school stuff out of the way today as I am going up there tomorrow for Father's Day.

But Yea, the passport thing is a big issue apparently, I just texted a friend of mine that loves BSS, she doesn't have a passport either :-/

monthly post
I should at least have a monthly post. That wouldn't be so bad.

A guy I worked with a few years ago called me yesterday and sort of offered me a job that sounds interesting. In Buffalo.

Its still too early to tell whats going on but the idea of moving to Buffalo has me "shitting my load" as my Karnatakan friend would say.

Anyways, picture width test:
