Lmao, imagine getting your ass kicked by the gays.
Not too hard to imagine. I have many gay friends and some of them are tough af.
Picture a skinny straight guy (me) hanging out at the local gay bar with friends. I'm there all the time and know all the locals and staff too, great crowd and prob my fav place to hang for a drink.
Some guy I've never seen before keeps making moves on me, I just keep moving away. Someone explains I'm straight and he says, "Excellent. I enjoy the challenge." Eventually he thinks it's "fun" to poke my bum with a pool cue while I try play. I've had enough, "Dude, fuck off! No means no!" and I get ready to fight.
Well, in storms a crowd of some of the toughest guys there and the bartender, it gets so heated and they physically drag him out. A few moments later, one of my friends comes back in and asked if I'm okay. I am, it was no big deal. But he says that's not enough. Goes back out, they drag this guy back in, force him to apologise—he's sobbing big time—then drag him back out again.
The walkway off the street is painted as a giant pride rainbow, and apparently everyone's favourite part was slamming him down on there and saying he's never welcome here.
So, yeah. Don't fuck with gay people. Not to mention some of the much older fellas have taken huge beatings back in the 70s fighting for their rights and they're tough as nails.
Holy shit that is top-notch gay brohood there. Respect to these guys giving a rogue asshole a lesson in boundaries.
