The world has too many weirdos in it.

Is the world spawning an increased amount of weirdos or did I just never notice them before? Yesterday, in this quiet suburb in Manchester where I currently am, a terrible kerfuffle erupted while I was waiting for a tram. A man in his late 20s started to berate a woman most violently and at full volume. He accused the woman of having had carnal knowledge of his father although that’s not how he expressed it. He walked up and down the platform squealing about this and terrifying everyone. The woman retorted, at full volume, that neither her accuser nor his father was suitable equipped to have pleasured her, and this continued a while. The tram arrived and we boarded it. The man also tried to get on but got caught in the doors then fell out of the tram and the tram departed. When we returned four hours later we saw the same man and woman lying asleep in each other’s arms on the grass in the sunshine, and judging by the state of their rearranged attire the woman had discovered that the man was indeed suitably equipped for a bit of rumpy pumpy and all was well again. Weirdos.

I've been saying for years that people could be very strange at times... I can't imagine having a fight at the top of my lungs with anyone, in public or private... I just walk away if someone starts screaming... At least you weren't subjected to them trying to figure out what part goes where before they fell asleep. (If that happened here, someone would have called the police and they both would have gone to jail for public intoxication.)

No, they are out in full force now days. Another reason I don't venture out until I have to for some reason. I do dislike the kerfuffles that erupt because some people have no manners or self control. There are couples who seem to enjoy a good argument from time to time. It seems to reawaken something. Makes the world go bumpity bump.

Oh my goodness what a story. You must be right, she discovered that the man was suitably equipped, at least to give him a try.

OMG. I hate confrontations such as that. People don't seem to care where they are or what they do.

@judyev Quite a show! But I think he would have turned on anyone who looked at him the wrong way.

@xFiacre You wouldn't be game to try and interfere nowadays.

That's how we're doing my wife and me. We quarrelled for a minute or so. After that we become in good terms. We never harbired grudges.

that neither her accuser nor his father was suitable equipped to have pleasured her, Like father like son

@ineeddentures One wonders how an ill-equipped man could father a son. But it all ended well with them asleep in each others arms. I do like a happy ending.
