I took my dog for a mile and a half run and dropped him off a the house to finish up with a 2 mile loop run in the neighborhood. Part of the run goes on a pretty busy 2 lane. It was just getting to be dark and visibilty was low when some jerk in a honda threw a half-eaten slice of pizza at me... It hit me square in the chest. I'm not mad about the pizza sauce on my workout clothes. It's the simple lack of respect people have for others these days.

I gotta give the guy points for accuracy, but I keep thinking what if I weren't me. Kinda reminds me of Nicholas Cage in "The Weatherman".

while it is pretty sad somebody would do that, I have to give props to the assailant... can't be easy throwing food at high speeds with such accuracy

this is one of the best thread titles i have read in awhile. :thumbsup:

also, be glad it was a piece of pizza and not one of those snap whacker firework thingies. somebody threw one out a car window at me while on my run and when it snapped i thought i was being shot at. :confused:


actually, the pizza scarfing guy was probably feeling guilty that he was stuffing his face and you were exercising so he acted out.

Haha, in my neighborhood, it would of been several bullets to the chest instead of a pizza.

You're just saying that cause you know it was ME that got hit with the slice. ;)

I'm not worried about snap pops or whatever their called... I'm just glad it wasn't a big gulp or something. That would hurt, be sticky, and cold. They skimp on pizza sauce these days so the damage was minimal.

Haha, in my neighborhood, it would of been a crack baby and several meth addicts instead of a pizza.

I've had a few things tossed at me from cars, apples while walking and pennies while on the bike. All of which missed.
Never quite understood their thought process.

I was walking with a couple of friends one day, just going down the street to Walmart. We were about half way there when some guy drove buy and threw a large McDonalds drink at us and hit my friend right on, soaking him and my other friend. I didn't get a drop on me. I think I know who threw it but since he wasn't the driver and I didn't recognize the car I don't know for sure.

Sucks for you, but you gotta admit that is classic. You'll both remember it for a long time.

I can just imagine the conversations you had:
"Dude what the fuck happened to you?"
"I was assaulted by a flying pizza"
:confused:

Some asshole threw a bullet shell at me as he was driving by, hit me right in the forehead. This was in the motherland back home.
