    Almost Got Mugged.

    So we're in Amsterdam... home of legal drugs and legal sex. And, apparently... plenty of muggings.

    My buddy of mine (there will be pics of my buddies when I get home in 2 days.), the 175lb one (the 260lb one was sleeping) and I were walking around the Red Light District at 1am on Sunday night, and decided to walk down all the dark, deserted alleys that we could find. Why? Cause my buddy loves to wander around aimlessly.

    So, we're walking down one of these, and 2 black guys are standing there. No biggie, right? They probably just want to sell us 8-balls or cocaine like every other black guy standing around. Apparently not. Apparently, they wanted me to give them 50 euros so they could smoke up. And not give me anything in return. That does not sound like a good deal for me, so I say, "No, I'm good."

    It would seem that was not the answer they wanted to hear. One of them grabs my arm and tells the other to pull out his gun. I explain calmly that I had no money; I had spent it all on hookers and weed (I had like 30 euros on me and about 100 USD). At the same time, I pulled my arm free.

    My buddy and I start walking, while the one keeps telling the other to pull out his gun (the other had his hand in his pocket like he has a gun). We keep walking and they don't follow.

    We should have kicked their ass, instead of following Non-Violent Resistence, or whatever that crap that Martin Luther King Jr preached.

    Regardless, it was kinda messed up.

    Re: Almost Got Mugged.

    There are black people in Europe?
    So I've gone completely slack-ass and haven't done any work on creating games. =(

    In less-depressing news, I got a job for an online business (which sells non-electronic games, of all things!) which has taught me a lot about marketing online and all that jazz.

    So now I'm on Twitter @NoahWright.
    And I write the blog for their website.

    Plus I do cool programming in-house that you'll never see. =O

      Should've taken the gun, and pistol whipped them to death. For god's sake man! They don't have hate crimes in Europe.

            It was Ghandi. MLK Jr. preached that we should all live together regardless of color, so that blindingly white girls like me could live in peace with orange girls who tan too much.

            And the image of you and Tackel (for FFRers, "Tackel" is the medium sized one) trying to beat up ANYONE (for example, small defenseless puppies) brings me to tears of laughter. Or, sorry, like the DDR machine: I'M CRYING! BUCKETS OF TEARS! At least if Merm was there (again for FFRers, this would be the FATS ONE) he could have sat on them or something.

            I didn't get mugged in Amsterdam, but I was also not offered sex OR drugs, so I feel that my experience is not quite typical.

                No. No there couldn't have been. If there was a gun Tass and his friend would be dead now for refusing to give money to an armed drug addict in need of a fix.

                      How big were these guys?
                      The secret to your future lies hidden in your daily routine.

                      The reason most people fail instead of succeed is that they trade what they want most for what they want at the moment.

                            yes, there are MANY black people in Europe.

                            They weren't that big.

                            Tackel and I could have taken them... element of surprise is everything.


                            And yes, there was no gun. Had there been a gun, and had it been brandished, I would have given up my 30 euros. Instead, we walked away and it is now an interesting story.
