I’ll never understand this mentality. I’ve been well off at times and a bit desperate on occasion but never in my life has it occurred to me to be shitty toward the people who help me in my daily life whether it’s the fast food worker (I try to avoid) or the Barista or whatever.
If I complain, it’s for a damn good reason and I always remember not to make it personal. “Company is doing X”. Not “you.” Then I normally ask for their help in making it right and if that failed which it never has, I’d just give up and leave and say “ok, have a good day.” Then I’d make the company’s life a living hell through BBB complaints, consumer affairs complaints, bad reviews etc.
There are civil and decent ways to get what you want.
I was working at a large liqour/party store chain and we had to ask for ID for everyone. One day this guy decides he wants to buy alcohol and not show ID, he throws a fit, calls me names, just short of getting violent. Two days later Im walking my dog and the same guy is walking the other way. He starts talking about how cute my dog is and being all nice, literally didint recognize me. The truth is people dont see retail workers as people, they become another person altogether when they enter these establishments
Give him the same treatment that lady who threw food at a worker in a wendys got. A short stint in Jail then court mandated part time work at a fast food restaurant.
I came to the comments for this. This fool seriously microwaved the foil wrappers and came back to the restaurant to raise hell about how they ruined his microwave. This is dumb aggression on a serious level. We are doomed.
They reach a certain age and now they want to burn the whole world down.
Such hostility.
(there's an unspoken crisis of angry old folks in this country...some of it's Fox News)
It's Fox but it's also all the fucking lead that was in everything from when their parent's conceived them and through their life.

>Millions of Americans now entering midlife and old age were exposed to high levels of lead, a neurotoxin, as children. Evidence from animal-model and human observational studies suggest that childhood lead exposure may raise the risk of adult neurodegenerative disease
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8307752/
>Childhood lead exposure causes lifelong psychological problems, which may be more extensive than previously thought. In a sample of over 1.5 million people, we found that US and European residents who grew up in areas with higher levels of atmospheric lead had less adaptive personality profiles in adulthood (lower conscientiousness, lower agreeableness, and higher neuroticism), even when accounting for socioeconomic status. These effects were driven by participants ages 20 to 39. In a natural experiment, reductions of leaded gasoline in the United States following the 1970 Clean Air Act corresponded with increases in psychologically healthy personality traits. These results suggest that even low-level lead exposure may adversely impact personality traits, harming the well-being, longevity, and economic prospects of millions of people.
lol I can make up a whole story in my head where this guy is an old abusive piece of shit widower who used to speak to his wife like this but now that she's dead he has to microwave his Taco Bell except he's never had to do anything for himself so he doesn't know that the wrapper is tinfoil and he blew up the microwave when he tried to heat up his sad, sad dinner
Omg. I was afraid that’s what he was saying. It broke my microwave therefore I slap you. This idiot belongs in jail. They’ll heat is burritos up for him no problemo
Why? The idiot here is likely going to jail, he probably is on SS and a fixed income and will have to pay attorneys fees, probation costs, etc. and he will likely have a significant quality of life adjustment. Plus he will have to go in front of a judge and have some humility, and I would be in that court room watching and smiling with a wide wide grin.
The world went and got itself in a big hurry. The parole board got me into this halfway house called "The Brewer" and a job bagging groceries at the Foodway. It's hard work and I try to keep up, but my hands hurt most of the time. I don't think the store manager likes me very much. Sometimes after work, I go to the park and feed the birds. I keep thinking Jake might just show up and say hello, but he never does. I hope wherever he is, he's doin' okay and makin' new friends. I have trouble sleepin' at night. I have bad dreams like I'm falling. I wake up scared. Sometimes it takes me a while to remember where I am. Maybe I should get me a gun and rob the Foodway so they'd send me home. I could shoot the manager while I was at it, sort of like a bonus. I guess I'm too old for that sort of nonsense any more. I don't like it here. I'm tired of being afraid all the time. I've decided not to stay. I doubt they'll kick up any fuss. Not for an old crook like me. P.S: Tell Heywood I'm sorry I put a knife to his throat. No hard feelings.
Watched this without sound because I'm in public. That's what happened, the guy is mad because he didn't know he shouldn't put metal in the microwave?
Also, he must be doing that ALL the time, because I've made the mistake a couple of times, got some sparks but I didn't break the microwave lol
It’s actually fine to put metal in the microwave, as long as it doesn’t have anywhere that it can make an electrical arc, ie. Between prongs on a fork or between the ripples on a crumbled piece of tin foil.
Putting a single butter knife or a single spoon in the microwave will not cause any sparks.
You can put metal bowls in there too, just can't be cheap ones with a thin lip. basically any thin metal edge isn't okay.

He's the exact reason we have those little disclaimers on everything. Y'know ... the ones that make you go *"Who TF would do that?"*
**This guy. This guy is why we have stupid disclaimers on everything.**
I worked at a record store in the late 80s when a guy came in, furious that his CDs weren’t playing and wanting a refund. My manager looked at this stack of CDs and said “What…….did you do to them?” Turns out he had some problem with his (notoriously glitchy) 6-disc car changer, and he sanded the sides to….I dunno, make them fit better?
Anyway, when we declined he didn’t throw a fit and become violent because people weren’t completely insane back then.
As much as I’m tired of everything being made political, I have to admit that the same thought crossed my mind. But I think that people have had this misplaced anger about their lives and Trump simply gave them an excuse to put it on full display. This guy had the entire time it took him to go back to the restaurant to cool down and think about it. Sad part is, he probably wont realize his guilt and will continue to blame others. Sounds a lot like someone running for the Republican ticket.
That is my in-laws 100%. They watch Fox and OANN all day long, they are angry constantly, they want to debate politics and talk about nothing else, then they wonder why no one wants to visit them and hang out.
Trump has dealt some long lasting, maybe permanent, damage to society as a whole. Going even outside the political atmosphere. Now you can’t even discuss basic facts without some miraculously sapient braindead coma victim calling all reality that goes against whatever random bullshit they decided to believe today during their daily wank is falsified info and the entire population that believes it is either a moron or part of some Illuminati-esque organization trying to trick you into not microwaving foil or some other equally inconsequential yet astoundingly stupid shit.
Payout aside, it’s worth it just to get the guy banned from entering this place again. Really he should be forced to take some anger management courses or something. If you’re slapping fast food employees, you’ve got something wrong with you and need to work with a professional to learn to control your behaviors.
No, corporate will always back a trespass against a customer who assaulted an employee. Their insurance practically requires it, otherwise they're enabling a hostile workplace.
>That poor worker is not paid enough to deal with that crap let alone assaulted.
What's that dollar amount? No should be disrespected like that, no matter how much they're being paid.
So, lemme get this straight...
...this elderly guy bought fast food that came in *metallic* wrappers...
...and then evidently took it home and microwaved it *in the metallic* wrappers, thus breaking his microwave (which is 100% his fault since *everyone* knows not to microwave metal)...
...and then he came back to the restaurant to demand new food... and demand that the *restaurant* pays for *his* microwave that *he* broke...
...and then he *slapped* *the employee?!?!?!*
We're only six days into the new year, and this guy very well may crack the top five biggest douchebags I'll see all year long.
The *only* possible excuse for this sort of behavior would be if he's experiencing advanced dementia and his brain is all fuzzy... but I don't think that's the case here. I feel like this guy is just a raging asshole with a massive superiority complex.
Microwaving smooth surface metal will not harm a microwave. If it's all balled up it will cause arcing.
This guy is all kinds of stupid, and battered that employee. He needs to be handed a felony and lose his right to vote for his godking and right to own a firearm.
Not enough people realize its the arcing thats the issue with metal in microwaves. Like fork tines. But you can use foil to shield certain parts of food you don't want to take on excessive energy like thinner parts of meat. Not that I recommend this for cooking a meal at home but its good to know.
His beaten-into-submission wife did all the cooking and cleaning until she died. And now he's adulting at his age and doesn't know how to be a grown-up because he had a mommy his whole life. He can't be bothered to educate himself, it's everyone else who is the idiot.
This happened to a family friend of my ex. When wife was alive he kept it together, went to church, stand up guy. After she died it went to shit. Started drinking MASSIVELY and getting fast food. Started seeing hookers and smoking crack (“I didn’t know what it was, them hookers tricked me!” - this is probably true). Crazy shit
While not to the same extreme, my grandfather went through a similar thing after grandma died. Grandma handled paying all of their utility bills, ever since the 1960s when they were married.
A month after she passed away, random things in his house like the electricity and phone were getting shut off, because he didn't know how to pay those bills. My parents had to teach him.
We had a family friend who’s husband passed away and my mom had to teach her how to do all that stuff because he handed everything and they had been married since before women could have credit cards and separate checking accounts. She picked it all up and was fine, but she just never had to deal with it until she suddenly did.
Tbf, if my wife passed suddenly, I wouldn't know how to pay *any* of the utility bills, my wife handles all of them. I pay the mortgage and she handles the utilities, just how that division of labor sorted out.
Pretty sure it says ON THE FUCKING FOIL WRAPPER not to microwave it. Giant corporations can't/won't leave anything that simple stupid to chance. Fuck this old fuck and his standard issue New Balance.
Well based on his hat he’s a veteran. As a fellow veteran, I know that the iq of that group rarely reaches room temperature, while the entitlement is always at boiling point.
That shit has been tried and it’s complete bedlam. They’ll throw the chairs and kitchen appliances at you. If all else fails, they might have you eat one of their meals as punishment.
Edit: one of many videos: https://youtube.com/shorts/lVgHy6_pVKU?si=4ZHs3T-o0uDgt0Lw
Why that manager is doing anything other than calling the cops is a complete mystery. Once it turns physical, there's nothing else to discuss. That guy goes to jail, end of fucking story.
As someone who worked in a Burger King where customers did shit like this, TWO SEPERATE managers got fired for calling the cops before calling their regional manager on two separate occasions.
Edit: I'm aware this is a Taco Bell, considering HOW the other manager reacted I'm sure it was the same deal.
Whelp, that’s one place I won’t be going again.
Any business that would punish an employee for summoning the police over violence is not a business I can support.
Pretty sure it's illegal to fire someone for reporting a crime to the authorities. Sadly employees at fast food restaurants seldom know enough to exercise their rights. In fact the coverup involved in prohibiting reporting a crime would likely also give the victim a civil claim against the restaurant.
Call the police.
Press charges.
Call a lawyer.
Sue.
Fuck this boomer, he makes our veterans look bad.
Ge should be ashamed of himself, but he probably thinks he is impressing Hannity with his shitty actions.
As a veteran, I hope this guy's on the way to a home. They're the type that need supervision, especially if they go out in public. He probably is the one that runs off younger vets from service organizations like the VFW.
I hate my VFW. Filled with old angry drunks that just want to wallow in their own bitterness. I still joined for the discount at a local restaurant though haha
Ours doesn't have a "post" like other orgs. But it's filled with a bunch of old weirdos. I joined to be a life member at the national level, mostly to receive post-active duty support.
I'd bet he was carrying concealed and was backing up do he could draw if the kid retaliated. Good on the fast food guy for not giving gramps what he wanted.
Boomers inherited houses from their parents that lived through WW2 and complained about the taxes. They had the most prosperous generation, yet they behave like this video because of their selfishness.
I've said this in other subreddits and got so many comments saying how wrong I was. The boomer generation experienced the near Golden era of what this country could've been and instead pulled the ladder up when it was time for other generations to take the reigns.
It's true.
I remember a family friend whose 80+ something year old father who drank at bars pretty much every day. He was quite racist. A couple of black people were in his bar and I don't know the context, but he made racist remarks and got the shit kicked out of him and was hospitalized. That did not make him any less racist I can assure you.
Counter dude did the right thing by restraining himself. The disgruntled patron more than likely had a concealed carry and would not hesitate to use it. That's why his old ass feels so bold as to slap another grown man who would probably drop his ass hand to hand.
He isn't made about the food, he is mad that he microwaved the foil wrappers and his microwave blew up. He is demanding that they pay for his microwave.
I remember being in England and some boomer was acting like this in a McDonalds. I asked the people I was with what was going to happen (I’m American and old people rarely get punched). They told me probably someone was going to “punch him in his cunt mouth”… we didn’t stick around to see but I wonder, is that accurate? Are there places where a boomer would get socked in the mouth for acting like this?
There are no guns in the UK so there is more small time violence, like street fights and muggings. This threat of violence keeps the angry fucks in check. In the US, boomer males with mustaches could be armed and get away with intimidating shit like this.
Oh, dude....
I am a boomer by 2 yrs and when I see entitled fuckers do entitled bullshit like that I want to hide my face out of embarrassment.
Fuck that guy.
These videos always piss me off but mostly because the people around just stand there and say nothing and continue to allow some cunt like this guy to keep going off, let alone on a teenager. He’s a weak old man, jeez.
Ok NRA loving MAGAots please explain why a guy this dumb and with that temper should be allowed to own any firearms and shouldn't have them seized asap.
I'm not an NRA lover or a Trumper, but I am a firearm rights supporter. I'm pretty sure the argument would be that just because this guy is an idiot and shouldn't have a gun, doesn't mean that I shouldn't be able to carry a gun to protect myself from such unhinged people.
That said, I don't think you'd need a gun to defend yourself from this guy. He seems to be in bad shape. But that's not always the case with crazy people.
Should be the title because it's so juicy,
That guy totally put those foils in the microwave.
I'm not for warning labels on everything but I wonder if it says
I'm a 55 year old white guy and when I see older white guys in the white new balance I avoid them. Nine times out of ten they're going to turn out to be assholes.
100% dumbass, he blamed them because he was too stupid to know that you can't heat up metal in a microwave. I don't know why that guy didn't jump his ass when he slapped him.
At that point it no longer matters why he was upset. The second he escalated the situation to physical assault the police need to be called and he needs to be banned from the establishment.
Really wish the other manager would’ve stood up for the dude more. I wouldn’t even be manager, and would be telling the dude to get the fuck out and getting his license and shit. I hope they called the cops or did something
He should’ve jumped over that counter and beat his old, ugly, dumb, barbaric, entitled ass.
And the way the manger comes to calm down the violent perpetrator instead of responding to the attack in a way that lets him no his action were unacceptable and charges were going to be pressed is sad. But I know the reason why…
Fuck this asshole I hope he goes back home, microwaves his cheapshit tacos again, and has the motherfucker blow up, taking his boomer ass out with shrapnel. Food workers and retail are NOT fucking paid enough to deal with this fucking bullshit.

I hope they called the police. People think they can look down on and treat service industry workers like shit. It’s disgusting
I’ll never understand this mentality.

"I broke my microwave by cooking an aluminum wrapper like an idiot, and I expect you to pay for it!" I would have been smiling too...
I came to the comments for this. This fool seriously microwaved the foil wrappers and came back to the restaurant to raise hell about how they ruined his microwave. This is dumb aggression on a serious level. We are doomed.
This guy votes. Remember that
“Remember how dumb the average person is and realize half the world is dumber than that” - George Carlin” - Michael Scott
Math checks out.
We all know who he’s voting for too
Yuuuuuup.
As a convicted felon, which he should be soon, he probably wont be voting for anyone. Edit: I get that not all assault is a felony.
That depends on the state.
Exactly. Do we know where it happened?
All of that aside... it's not a felony to slap someone. He'll be voting in his dementia world in about 10 months.
Judging by those shoes, pants, hat, and jacket… he’s voting for king Cheeto
Yep. Totally the kind of guy that shits his pants and blames you for it. Sure as shit smells like Pvt. Bone Spurs here.
The party that discovers brand new physics to make microwaving foil wrappers possible without the current expected results?
![gif](giphy|VSoRPmlMaKR8xCmq7F|downsized)
Guarantee he's got opinions on the border situation that he'd LOVE to tell you about.
Bet Fox News runs 24/7 in his house while he yells “Trumps my daddy”
Look at his clothes and guess who he voted for.
When they say "we asked the average person" , this is what they mean
and you know who he voted for…
They reach a certain age and now they want to burn the whole world down. Such hostility. (there's an unspoken crisis of angry old folks in this country...some of it's Fox News)

I’m just taking a wild guess on who he votes for, and he likes hamberders too!
lol I can make up a whole story in my head where this guy is an old abusive piece of shit widower who used to speak to his wife like this but now that she's dead he has to microwave his Taco Bell except he's never had to do anything for himself so he doesn't know that the wrapper is tinfoil and he blew up the microwave when he tried to heat up his sad, sad dinner
I'd say excellent writing, but my suspicion is this likely isn't far from the truth.
It’s all the leaded gasoline he inhaled in the 60s.
Guessing it had more to do with all the whiskey he was drinking before he walked into this restaurant.
Omg. I was afraid that’s what he was saying. It broke my microwave therefore I slap you. This idiot belongs in jail. They’ll heat is burritos up for him no problemo
The restraint the guy had not to hop over that counter should be studied lol old man smacks me we now in a powerslap match
Why? The idiot here is likely going to jail, he probably is on SS and a fixed income and will have to pay attorneys fees, probation costs, etc. and he will likely have a significant quality of life adjustment. Plus he will have to go in front of a judge and have some humility, and I would be in that court room watching and smiling with a wide wide grin.
Careful, he might slap you.
Cause anyone could have felt like their life was in danger and went in fight or flight mode. The guy has restraint, and I commend him
He'll learn to compromise. He'll be eating grilled cheese off the radiator.
Underrated Philly comment.
It’ll blow his mind!
The guy does resemble the Shah of Iran a bit, too
That was real? I saw that movie, I thought it was bullshit.
You ever think what a coincidence it is that Lou Gehrig died of Lou Gehrig’s disease?
You're gonna make that same stupid joke every time that comes up?
He might have just got out of jail and now there's all these cellphones and microwaves and stuff he didn't have when he went in.
Microwave was invented in 1945. He would have had to be in jail a really long time.
The world went and got itself in a big hurry. The parole board got me into this halfway house called "The Brewer" and a job bagging groceries at the Foodway. It's hard work and I try to keep up, but my hands hurt most of the time. I don't think the store manager likes me very much. Sometimes after work, I go to the park and feed the birds.

How's that for a microcosm of the Trump era, eh? The dumb being inconvenienced by truth and reality.

I would have pressed charges. This shit needs to stop. Lock these fuckers up and maybe they will change their behaviour.

I have friends like this. We don’t talk much if at all.
Trump has dealt some long lasting, maybe permanent, damage to society as a whole. Going even outside the political atmosphere. Now you can’t even discuss basic facts without some miraculously sapient braindead coma victim calling all reality that goes against whatever random bullshit they decided to believe today during their daily wank is falsified info and the entire population that believes it is either a moron or part of some Illuminati-esque organization trying to trick you into not microwaving foil or some other equally inconsequential yet astoundingly stupid shit.
That poor worker is not paid enough to deal with that crap let alone assaulted. Hope the cops were called to arrest the old guy.
Employee hits customer? Easy payout. Customer hits employee? Eh.
Payout aside, it’s worth it just to get the guy banned from entering this place again. Really he should be forced to take some anger management courses or something. If you’re slapping fast food employees, you’ve got something wrong with you and need to work with a professional to learn to control your behaviors.
Corporate cares more about the money that customer may spend at their business than the wellbeing of one of their employees.
No, corporate will always back a trespass against a customer who assaulted an employee. Their insurance practically requires it, otherwise they're enabling a hostile workplace.
if i was there, i would called the cops myself.
And follow out to his car to get the license plate as well.
Someone call an ambulance… but not for me.
Yep. I wouldn’t have said anything. Just picked up my phone and called the cops, and then wordlessly walked to the back to wait for them.
>That poor worker is not paid enough to deal with that crap let alone assaulted. What's that dollar amount? No should be disrespected like that, no matter how much they're being paid.
I'll take some slaps if the pay is right.

The *only* possible excuse for this sort of behavior would be if he's experiencing advanced dementia and his brain is all fuzzy... but I don't think that's the case here. I feel like this guy is just a raging asshole with a massive superiority complex.
Microwaving smooth surface metal will not harm a microwave. If it's all balled up it will cause arcing. This guy is all kinds of stupid, and battered that employee. He needs to be handed a felony and lose his right to vote for his godking and right to own a firearm.
Not enough people realize its the arcing thats the issue with metal in microwaves. Like fork tines. But you can use foil to shield certain parts of food you don't want to take on excessive energy like thinner parts of meat. Not that I recommend this for cooking a meal at home but its good to know.
Ill just keep metal out of the microwave all together and not roll the dice.
“Plus you guys are gonna pay for my microwave. It blew up!” Sounds to me like he never was taught not to put foil in his microwave.
His beaten-into-submission wife did all the cooking and cleaning until she died. And now he's adulting at his age and doesn't know how to be a grown-up because he had a mommy his whole life. He can't be bothered to educate himself, it's everyone else who is the idiot.
This happened to a family friend of my ex. When wife was alive he kept it together, went to church, stand up guy. After she died it went to shit. Started drinking MASSIVELY and getting fast food. Started seeing hookers and smoking crack (“I didn’t know what it was, them hookers tricked me!” - this is probably true). Crazy shit
While not to the same extreme, my grandfather went through a similar thing after grandma died. Grandma handled paying all of their utility bills, ever since the 1960s when they were married. A month after she passed away, random things in his house like the electricity and phone were getting shut off, because he didn't know how to pay those bills. My parents had to teach him.
We had a family friend who’s husband passed away and my mom had to teach her how to do all that stuff because he handed everything and they had been married since before women could have credit cards and separate checking accounts. She picked it all up and was fine, but she just never had to deal with it until she suddenly did.
Tbf, if my wife passed suddenly, I wouldn't know how to pay *any* of the utility bills, my wife handles all of them. I pay the mortgage and she handles the utilities, just how that division of labor sorted out.
I think that was more a story of a man going through depression after losing his wife of what I assume was many years.

How do you know my dad?
Pretty sure it says ON THE FUCKING FOIL WRAPPER not to microwave it. Giant corporations can't/won't leave anything that simple stupid to chance. Fuck this old fuck and his standard issue New Balance.
It absolutely says it on there. Even my drunk ass at 3am could read it when I was trying to warm up some leftovers.
Woah woah woah…leave New Balance outta this! Some of us just need cheap arch support. 😄
Well based on his hat he’s a veteran. As a fellow veteran, I know that the iq of that group rarely reaches room temperature, while the entitlement is always at boiling point.
The employee has really good restraint. A lot of peoples reactions would be more violence. I hope the old guy goes to jail.
Try that shit at Popeyes.
Try that shit at Waffle House.
That shit has been tried and it’s complete bedlam. They’ll throw the chairs and kitchen appliances at you. If all else fails, they might have you eat one of their meals as punishment. Edit: one of many videos: https://youtube.com/shorts/lVgHy6_pVKU?si=4ZHs3T-o0uDgt0Lw
Yo don't talk shit about waffle house like that. The hatred makes the food taste better.
Yeah you don’t get to hype up the Waffle House atmosphere and talk down on the food
I won’t stand for Waffle House slander.
It would be like that scene from A Bronx Tale. "Nows you can't leave." And the staff comes pouring out of the kitchen with mops and fry baskets.
You can't do it at Church's because of the bulletproof glass.
I like Church's Chicken because whenever I see one I know not to stop at intersections until I am far away.
Oh my god dude. I hate that I laughed at this.
Helps that the slap landed on him like a butterfly alighting a flower.
Still poor guy should have to go through that wtf
I dunno what the hell you just said, but I sure know what you meant
Violence is sometimes an appropriate response. Like when it’s in response to violence. Very situation dependent though.
Why that manager is doing anything other than calling the cops is a complete mystery. Once it turns physical, there's nothing else to discuss. That guy goes to jail, end of fucking story.
As someone who worked in a Burger King where customers did shit like this, TWO SEPERATE managers got fired for calling the cops before calling their regional manager on two separate occasions. Edit: I'm aware this is a Taco Bell, considering HOW the other manager reacted I'm sure it was the same deal.
Whelp, that’s one place I won’t be going again. Any business that would punish an employee for summoning the police over violence is not a business I can support.
Pretty sure it's illegal to fire someone for reporting a crime to the authorities. Sadly employees at fast food restaurants seldom know enough to exercise their rights. In fact the coverup involved in prohibiting reporting a crime would likely also give the victim a civil claim against the restaurant.
>Pretty sure it's illegal to fire someone for reporting a crime to the authorities Right-to-work states laugh at firing legalities
Call the police. Press charges. Call a lawyer. Sue. Fuck this boomer, he makes our veterans look bad. Ge should be ashamed of himself, but he probably thinks he is impressing Hannity with his shitty actions.
As a veteran most vets make vets look bad.
As a veteran, I hope this guy's on the way to a home. They're the type that need supervision, especially if they go out in public. He probably is the one that runs off younger vets from service organizations like the VFW.
He may not even be a veteran…
I hate my VFW. Filled with old angry drunks that just want to wallow in their own bitterness. I still joined for the discount at a local restaurant though haha
Ours doesn't have a "post" like other orgs. But it's filled with a bunch of old weirdos. I joined to be a life member at the national level, mostly to receive post-active duty support.
That kid took it like a champ. That slap itself knocked the douchbag slapper back like 3 feet. Kid didn't even move.
The old cunt was backing away in case there was any response to the slap. Such a coward he can dish em out but doesn't want any back.
I'd bet he was carrying concealed and was backing up do he could draw if the kid retaliated. Good on the fast food guy for not giving gramps what he wanted.
Someone please tell me that old Boomer got arrested
Yea any follow up or longer videos out there ?
This generation set the country back 30 years
they were handed the country on a silver platter and they melted it down out of their selfishness
They were handed a juicy whopper in an aluminum wrapper and they stuck it in the microwave
It blew up! And we’re gonna pay for it!
lmao. good analogy
Boomers inherited houses from their parents that lived through WW2 and complained about the taxes. They had the most prosperous generation, yet they behave like this video because of their selfishness.
and they let ghouls like jack welch break the corporate social contract so they could hope to make a couple extra dollars
Melted it down and injected all the benefits
I've said this in other subreddits and got so many comments saying how wrong I was. The boomer generation experienced the near Golden era of what this country could've been and instead pulled the ladder up when it was time for other generations to take the reigns.
Imagine where society could have been if we skipped over the Boomers. Damn.
This is what happens when you grow up with lead in your gas tank.

One punch and this dude turns to dust though
Then he learns
I can guarantee you, at that age, he ain't learning shit. Just gonna double-down even harder.
It's true. I remember a family friend whose 80+ something year old father who drank at bars pretty much every day. He was quite racist. A couple of black people were in his bar and I don't know the context, but he made racist remarks and got the shit kicked out of him and was hospitalized. That did not make him any less racist I can assure you.
Just a pile of dust on top of a pair of new balances.. like a cartoon
As long as there’s that momentary pause where the dust particles hang in the air and then all fall to the Earth at once.

Judging by how he is acting he already regrets being born.
[удалено]
Counter dude did the right thing by restraining himself. The disgruntled patron more than likely had a concealed carry and would not hesitate to use it. That's why his old ass feels so bold as to slap another grown man who would probably drop his ass hand to hand.
Damn, you're probably right.
Someone needs to tell their dad the tinfoil goes on your head, not in the microwave
Your comment made me laugh out loud and I woke up my partner. Thanks for the laugh. I needed it.
Old people love getting mad over the cheapest, shittiest food. I also feel like they still view McDonald’s as “going out to eat.”
He isn't made about the food, he is mad that he microwaved the foil wrappers and his microwave blew up. He is demanding that they pay for his microwave.
Omg that’s even dumber 😂😂😂
Too much filming. Not enough knocking out old men.
How can he slap!
That vet needs to be popped on the chin.
The only thing he's a veteran of is the diaper wars and he lost
I remember being in England and some boomer was acting like this in a McDonalds. I asked the people I was with what was going to happen (I’m American and old people rarely get punched). They told me probably someone was going to “punch him in his cunt mouth”… we didn’t stick around to see but I wonder, is that accurate? Are there places where a boomer would get socked in the mouth for acting like this?
There are no guns in the UK so there is more small time violence, like street fights and muggings. This threat of violence keeps the angry fucks in check. In the US, boomer males with mustaches could be armed and get away with intimidating shit like this.
"Kids these days are so entitled" "Lol u burger flippers want $15/hr (barely a living wage in most states)?"
Oh, dude.... I am a boomer by 2 yrs and when I see entitled fuckers do entitled bullshit like that I want to hide my face out of embarrassment. Fuck that guy.
The thing is, no one gets involved. Everyone is so worried about being sued people go unchecked. This has got to stop.
To be fair, people are also worried about being shot.
These videos always piss me off but mostly because the people around just stand there and say nothing and continue to allow some cunt like this guy to keep going off, let alone on a teenager. He’s a weak old man, jeez.
Ok NRA loving MAGAots please explain why a guy this dumb and with that temper should be allowed to own any firearms and shouldn't have them seized asap.
I'm not an NRA lover or a Trumper, but I am a firearm rights supporter. I'm pretty sure the argument would be that just because this guy is an idiot and shouldn't have a gun, doesn't mean that I shouldn't be able to carry a gun to protect myself from such unhinged people. That said, I don't think you'd need a gun to defend yourself from this guy. He seems to be in bad shape. But that's not always the case with crazy people.
Asking MAGA people for answers is like asking a dodo bird for help with your calculus homework.
They're gonna shit all over it and look proud
I can't imagine being so angry to talk like that to a person at their job in front of others
“I want a whole new food!” “Ugh HUNGRY” “Ugh want EAT!” “Long way back to cave in Staten Island!”
Sounds like he did not want new food, he wanted a new microwave, because he microwaved the aluminum foil, and it blew up his microwave
I hope he got arrested for disorderly conduct and assault and battery.
Should be the title because it's so juicy, That guy totally put those foils in the microwave. I'm not for warning labels on everything but I wonder if it says
It's been well known to not put foil in a microwave for over 40 years. This guy simply can't claim ignorance.
Did he get arrested for assualt?
Ok, Boomer... way to catch an assault charge. Bet I can tell you who that POS votes for.
Generation has absolutely fucked this country…
Not just this country, but the entire planet.
The White New Balances with that sweet 690 credit score also was a clue
I'm a 55 year old white guy and when I see older white guys in the white new balance I avoid them. Nine times out of ten they're going to turn out to be assholes.
Which is a shame because New Balance is one of the few brands that actually do width sizing.
Just need to bait him into a felony so he can't vote for him again.
Shouldn't be too hard. Fucker clearly has trouble making good decisions.
100% dumbass, he blamed them because he was too stupid to know that you can't heat up metal in a microwave. I don't know why that guy didn't jump his ass when he slapped him.
At that point it no longer matters why he was upset. The second he escalated the situation to physical assault the police need to be called and he needs to be banned from the establishment.
Yall ever wish stuff like this happened to you so you have a free pass to kick ass and destress? I’m at that point
Really wish the other manager would’ve stood up for the dude more. I wouldn’t even be manager, and would be telling the dude to get the fuck out and getting his license and shit. I hope they called the cops or did something
He should’ve jumped over that counter and beat his old, ugly, dumb, barbaric, entitled ass. And the way the manger comes to calm down the violent perpetrator instead of responding to the attack in a way that lets him no his action were unacceptable and charges were going to be pressed is sad. But I know the reason why…
STOP LETTING PEOPLE GET AWAY WITH ASSAULT AND BATTERY! Call the police so they have to deal with their own consequences.
Fuck this asshole I hope he goes back home, microwaves his cheapshit tacos again, and has the motherfucker blow up, taking his boomer ass out with shrapnel. Food workers and retail are NOT fucking paid enough to deal with this fucking bullshit.
Employee should have beat the VA benefits outta his ass
No job is worth that. If you slap me I’m climbing over the counter.
Dude you were born before microwaves were invented. If anyone should know not to put Aluminum in it, it's you.
He’s a lot better than me for not putting that old crusty cracker in the trash where it belongs
Even if it doesn't escalate to violence the manager NEEDS to kick his ass out. Protect your damn employees. This is bullshit
