Dude, your def not a loser. But I can understand how it gets under your skin a bit, because for 1, at our age (I'm 32 as well) it may not seem "socially acceptable" but at the same time we arent bothering anyone. So yeah I think, look if I'm with my girl and we're meeting friends from her office the 1st I thing I say usually isnt "I collect Joes, Marvel and anything that has to do with old monster movies". My bills are paid, I pay my taxes, work and dont do drugs or Im not involved in terrorism or midget porn...if I wanna collect Joes, dont come into my space and call me out on it, because seriously...its gonna be a bad day for the both of us, but much worse for you.
I think you handled yourself well, and the mature part of me wants to say let it go, theyre stupid kids. However..and F it because I've already typed a book...I was about 19 or 20 and it was a friday night, early on too. I was at intersection at the light, heading from Barnes and Noble and I can remember I had an issue of Wizard and Famous Monsters Of Filmland that I just bought next to me. 2 punks and a girl next to me were like "hey man, enjoying friday night ALONE??"..."have fun ALONE!!"...and kept saying it for about less then a min, but it seemed like an eternity.
I remember thinking, Im just gonna gun it, turn the car in front of theres and yank him out, beat the 2 of them pretty bad, leave the girl alone then just leave. For whatever reason..probably because I had been in "trouble" before a few of my brain cells kicked in and I said...leave it alone, just keep driving. And I did.
I give you all the credit in the world because I had/have some anger issues...never hit a woman, animal or child. But I have a pretty short fuse...I found weights, martial arts, music.....and yes collecting has made me happy. It allows me to "escape"..which is why I commend you for being at ease, because if I'm "escaping" and not bothering anyone..and you call me out in my own space? Thats pretty much means for war.
You arent a loser, you seem cool, your a father and a husband. Think about this too..you were shopping with your family....they called you a loser. In all honesty, WTF were 3 kids doing in Godamn Wall Mart at 11 pm on a friday if they were so f'ing cool? Monday you'll be back at work and hopefully resolved with your wife. That same day they'll be enjoying the insides of a locker......
