How do you not be intimidated by guys that say they've been in prison and can beat you up?

This goes against my own personal standards of just saying something grossly gay, but unironnically think about how hot that would be if he did picrel
>he'd be too grossed out to hit you because if they did then you would cum on him involuntarily
>he's also into it and gives a good spanking and fingering and the worst you have to give is a blowjob unless your ass is bigger than his

I'm guessing you are young because adults who talk tough don't last long in the real world.
>>
>>33899894
Can you give examples of said adults not lasting long in the real world?
>>
>>33899894
You do realize that there are actually people who talk and act tough AND can actually kick your ass, right? They may love to run their mouth but they can still deliver a beat down when they need to.

My father was that kind of person, I learned how to deal with them quick. Shitty tattoos, hyperagression, irrational need to prove themselves in any situation. They can be pretty easy to get along with and very loyal if you show them kindness, but there's a deep-seated victim complex to contend with there so your results may vary. Very sensitive souls no matter how hard they try to portray themselves.

When I'm feeling generous I ask what they got locked up for, if they boast about it I laugh it off cause I know they're not worth my time but if they're remorseful I try to be kind. If they actively threaten me I invite them to match their bite to their bark, I have a reputation for being "farm boy tough" which usually does the heavy lifting for me but I've had to nut up or shut up a handful of times.

Admittedly I deal with more of this type than the average dude, I'm blue collar and service some rough areas in town. 9/10 times they're harmless but once in a while it's good to at least be prepared for a fight.

>Tldr: call their bluff, laugh it off, diffuse by asking why they did time or lay them out on the sidewalk
>>
>>33898572
Mostly this >>33899085. If you're interacting with these people in the first place then it's a red flag for your life trajectory.

If it's random strangers threatening you then you avoid being intimidated by remembering that you're carrying a concealed handgun and that having gone to prison does not make someone immune to being shot.

A smart monkey builds their tactics around long term survival. It's preferable to walk away from a situation with a percieved loss of reputation with a fleeting NPC than to potentially fuck your life up by doing/receiving damage over meaningless knucklehead shit.

Truthfully it's very relative to your situation. If you live in a rough area - a loss of reputation could make you prey. If you aren't able to back your own mouth - you may catch a beating you could've avoided by bitching out. If do lay someone out - you could catch charges/time and if you've got anything worth losing it won't have been worth it.

I've known violent young men. Their life is all short-term. You don't wanna get into situations with people who don't care about consequence. They'll take it further than you expect for a lot less.

For me the golden rule of the streets is to conduct yourself self-respect and respect for others. The occasional tactical use of deference or a submissive gesture in body / language can defuse a lot if you have a hard look about you. But truthfully I think this kind of thing is difficult to fake. There was enough seriousness in my upbringing to develop this naturally without training it. Also some situations are simply unnavoidable. No trick up my sleeve can outplay someone who has committed to being That Guy.

I think the general idea is to look like more trouble than it's worth. The cheap men like weaker prey.

But I would say out of the spread of comments in here the one I agreed most with is to simply watch your company. Don't mix in the circles these types of people are hanging around. Some of the circles I used to be around were literally knife-edge tension - things could explode at a moments over notice over a misplaced word or blowing smoke of a cigarette in their direction. Peckikg order politics where young men acquire status through acts of unecessary violence and confrontation.

Definitely yes, and I usually keep it under control but when I looked back to my own experiences I realized that exactly what I was doing and I guess some light masochism fetish built up in the process
>>33898783
>millennial witticism
I have no idea what that means but does it actually work?

>>33900281
But usually they'd die off or end up crippled at some point, lack of long term thinking inevitably catches up.

>>33900969
Well said. Rough upbringing, similar sounding enviornment. This advice checks out.

Although I'll add that a Gun never hurts when push comes to shove, and a self defense case is far more understandable if the felon falls in lieu of you. Not to say one should place themselves in that.. but, if it is inevitable and the enemy has your Addy then such must be come to terms. Best to simply trim the social circles or alternatively learn how to "control from the bottom" if you need another way out and reputation is on the line.

Never show yourself bleeding around shark infested waters.

lol touche then

>>33901858
Hmm, self defense?

>>33898572
Dont bother with that, just say "I dont want to associate with you", thats how you should deal with all obnoxious personalities

>>33902181
Or better yet say "i dont want to associate with him"

>>33902183
Not even acknowledging their presence with the right pronoun? Dang, that's next level.

Train up, learn to take a hit.
The only way to be confident if you feel like you might be attacked is to learn that it won't be the end of the world if they do.

The dude's need to make that point suggests he's just blowing hot air but that's not always the case so you've got to be prepared for that

>watch your company
Nearly all the times a guy has tried to start shit with me, it was when I was hanging out with his friends, my guard was down and he decided to cause trouble. Very few guys want to start shit with a complete stranger who is minding his own business and keeping an eye out for danger.
>>33898572
That's bait. Are you fool enough to take it? Your actions should be based on your intuitive analysis of the entire situation, not by angry reflex response to verbal provocation.
